Oh no, guerilla marketing to try to educate people enough to save their own freedoms. The humanity!


Mods might not make them successful, but they do make the games actually playable and enjoyable, especially as each new release has more never-to-be-fixed bugs than the last.

I’ve got a friend planning to buy Fallout 3 for PC, but no way they’d buy that for console after all this time. The experience just can’t hold up.


I got a new phone; first one I didn’t root, but god do I miss AdAway…


Yeah but… a block list is just another blocker. The real question is how you’re implementing it?

Android’s host file protection makes it impossible to modify without root.


Basically everything is more secure than SMS though. Security is a gradient, and never absolutel.



That’s what happens when the wealth is shared with those who make it. Everyone becomes a capitalist.


Same here. I like Sam Altman but if the board removed him for a good reason and he was reinstated because the employees want payouts, humanity could be in big trouble.


Don’t forget how much Nazis enjoy supporting Nazis to own the non-Nazis.


They’re literally replying to a comment which made that case. It wasn’t even their original idea and you’re shitting on them for it. Learn to fucking read.

Edit: wow and it’s your own comment that you apparently don’t know how to read.

Once this happens, Google just says “Oops, you’re shit out of luck” and then hires a whole new company of contracted workers for the same work, for cheaper.


As a user of YouTube Music, quite possibly.

They probably still deserve raises.


There’s a minimum install limit before the fee kicks in. But since Unity can just make more retroactive rules, this strategy can implode at any moment.


This is conclusive. Time of death 11:41, September 15.


I assumed the threat was from a developer whose life’s work is ruined by these terms. I wonder what the employee’s motive was.


This is probably it. iPhones all meet Apples standards but low end Android devices can be true garbage.

It’s like having a shitty netbook and swearing off Windows as a result.



Technology advances with great rapidity and threatens freedom at many different points at the same time (crowding, rules and regulations, increasing dependence of individuals on large organizations, propaganda and other psychological techniques, genetic engineering, invasion of privacy through surveillance devices and computers, etc.). To hold back any ONE of the threats to freedom would require a long and difficult social struggle. Those who want to protect freedom are overwhelmed by the sheer number of new attacks and the rapidity with which they develop, hence they become apathetic and no longer resist. To fight each of the threats separately would be futile. Success can be hoped for only by fighting the technological system as a whole; but that is revolution, not reform. – The Unabomber




There’s a 30 day grace period on renewals before someone else can pick them up. I doubt even Elon is that dumb.


This guy gets it.

I think “all billionaires are scum” is perhaps too harsh, but it’s far closer to the truth than the views of society at large.


It’s ridiculous to call ideas that have existed for half a century propaganda just because we’re now approaching those things…
