Doesn’t mean it isn’t scummy. In today’s day and age, where you can link every platform with every other platform, they could have integrated their existing account system with Steam and make the game available to people that already own the game.

But there is more money to squeeze out of their playerbase.

If you stick to popular free software, the jank is limited.

The Linux userspaces have a lot of enthusiastic people that create their own software and share it, and thus it seems like there is lot of janky stuff (because there is).

It feels like Windows has been captured by corporations and so the market is competitive. There isn’t much space for enthusiast developpers to tackle a different vision of a popular software.

So yeah, I agree with you, lots of janky software in Linux, but that’s the beauty of it IMO. If you stick to popular softwares, the jank is somewhat equivalent to Windows.

You’ve used Windows for so long that you don’t remember how it was when you first started using it.

This isn’t different than what you are doing with Linux. The flow gets better and better and you will acquire the experience needed to navigate the issues. It takes time, that’s all.

My uneducated kernel take. Flexibility is acceptable and desirable in small projects or low impact projects.

When the majority of the internet and a good chunk of PC are dependent on your project, predictability and stability is much more important than flexibility.

Let’s be real. A company comes in and offer you a life changing, fuck you money that covers the rest of your life.

Very few people can resist that, me included.

It’s akin to when everything is urgent, nothing is.

At one point, you gotta accept that you can’t do everything and move on. You can always re-find the information if it comes down to it in the future. Or you can use bookmark folders to be able to eventually go back to what you think is important.

If I have more than 6-7 tabs open, I check what I need to absolutely save and add that to a bookmark folder, then I close my browser and start fresh.

You gotta be nimble to navigate through 50+ tabs to find what you are looking for

“The demonstration is trivial and left to the reader” or any variation of that. Fuck you, do the fucking demonstration.

Got this so much in my engineering courses.

Laziness. I used Ubuntu, then tried a few distros based on it, and Linux Mint worked well enough out of the box.

I have a few issues with it, but i have easy workarounds so that’s good enough for me.

And we’ve made their environment worst than ours and it’s their fault.

Fucking youngsters

I will wait to buy it a few years after release. Not getting burned this time around.

You can share my tinfoil if you’d like. I got enough for both of us.

If they change course in the next 5 years, so be it. But right now, Jeep took some dev time to develop this, meaning they plan to use it at some point.

They deserve to lose the trust of the consumer because they gave us a peek behind the curtain and it fucking sucks.

Stop being pro-corpo, they are not your friend and they will piss on your corpse if that means they get a dollar more.

I love how that saying this is a software glitch is somehow supposed to make it okay? Motherfuckers, you took time and money to develop the thing. In doesn’t matter that it wasn’t supposed to be deployed right now. It matters that it was developed at all.

This is my tinfoil opinion, but I wouldn’t be surprised that it was done on purpose to gauge the public reaction and setting the pace of rollout.

The timing is too perfect knowing damn well that Republicans won’t legislate that.

In the scolding hot summer, I only like ice in my beverage because of an campaign in the 30s, not because it makes the drink colder and feels more refreshing.

What fucking risks you fucks? Hiring people with the wrong skin colors?

The news cycles since Trump won the election is fucking terrible. Every corporation is mask off and drop anything that might benefit the populace so that they go back to being cowboys and treat employees like shit.

I want to personally say fuck you to everyone that voted for Trump. I hope that you and all the members of your close circle that voted for Trump die a painful death, after being economically fucked out of any little wealth you have.

The world is better off without you cunts.

1500$ because you don’t have bulk parts, otherwise it could go down by a significant amount.

However, the 5k doesn’t include all the hours of engineering, which costs a lot more than the hardware.

With that said, you are absolutely right that we get dog shit computers for the price. The amount of hours I’ve spent in my life reducing the cost for a board is insane. And bear in mind that this wasn’t for high volume production neither where hardware cost reductions have a big impact.

I hope that this guy go on to do his own thing and doesn’t get gobbled by the corporate machine (or become the corporate machine).

There are a lot of open source mechanical keyboards out there and with a bit of elbow grease, anyone that is a little bit tech savvy can figure out how to link all the information together and do something with that.

However, the thing that stands out to me is the integration of all the parts.

Integration between hardware and firmware is a bitch, and add to that the mechanical integration as well. This dude hopefully has a bright future ahed of him, because he certainly has the chops.

I don’t know your situation, but I am an overwhelmed father of two young kids and the only way I can cope is by choosing days where I make the time after the routine, knowing full well it will be a shitty day after that. No chores, unhealthy eating if I so choose and going to bed late.

It’s the best I’ve found so far that keeps me afloat. But we’re always one stuffy nose away from disaster.

Both can be true. CEOs influence the direction the company takes.

Money talks and in that case, lots of people in this thread don’t want to encourage a company that endorse a fascist. Which is legitimate.
