It’s been a bit since I’ve asked them, but they certainly complained about the cost before. Almost as much as the hosting itself for sure.

I’ve tried explaining to them before, but they think that it’s a scam because it’s free lol

And my parents still buy SSL certs because that’s just what they know 🤢

I remember that for a time, JC Penney focused on honest pricing and abandoned common predatory prices. They came close to bankruptcy and went back to their old ways. The psychology of feeling like we got a good deal is so ingrained into most people that it becomes difficult to run a business without those things

Join the dark side – stop taking your pills and enjoy Elder Scrolls 6 and Titanfall 3 with the rest of us

When I read “fully autonomous”, I see how creepy its movements are and just imagine it seizing its moment, getting on all fours and charging someone. You could make a horror movie out of this lol

And as I’ve replied to many others, that’s a criticism of 11 itself and perfectly understandable. It’s not a reason to seethe at end of lifing. There’s features of software introduced that I don’t like in plenty of things including linux, but I’m not going to get mad that the version I like better doesn’t get supported forever

Windows 10 has been out a long time

Yeah, that’s how time works. Yes they’re pushing a move and 11 sucks but end of support is not like that any more than Ubuntu 12.04 is, and that’s been around even longer.

The bottom of the meme is explicitly calling it out. Those issues are valid, but there’s this shift in blame to the concept of support cycles in general.

The newer versions may be bad, but criticizing them for those bad features makes more sense than demonizing the concept of support cycles

Same here! I’m happy to see the UBports fork is still active as Lomiri, I haven’t checked it out in a while.

Right around when Steam is requiring games to inform users when they install rootkits lmao

I can’t wait until someone cracks it and I can just use it as my go-to source for Nintendo music storage.

…(in Minecraft)

Most issues stand, and fuck Windows generally, but honestly I don’t quite understand the issue with dropping support for older versions of Windows. Linux distros also do this, so much software does this, it’s just not practical or reasonable to manage all your versions of your software forever.

KDE, because despite my bitterness for the loss of Unity 8, I know it’s merely nostalgia for me. I want something I feel like I can make my own without too much difficulty.

Who here actually thinks “goldfish? That’s for kids.”

I think it’s more than just not doing yearly refreshes, it’s that they don’t want to do releases that are only incremental in nature, which is an extremely common behavior, especially among consoles.

The source is literally just VSCode with a different label. What benefit does that have?

Right, exactly, which is why they launched with a FOSS license. Oh, wait–

Imagine the money going to VSCode which actually is the one getting contributions

Except this isn’t money going to a FOSS project, it’s money to some guys whose only keyboard is StackOverflow’s The Key.
