Nobody should listen to billionaire boomer fucks.

This payout has got to be fractions of a penny per 100 gold or something similar to the low rates artists are paid for Spotify plays or YouTube views.

Almost zero benefit. I finally started to just use the Apple Upgrade Program and effectively look at the phone as a rental. We get a credit from work to use a device as BYOD so it ultimately is nice to simply have a new phone all the time.

You said “beautiful” but I’m not sure you are using that word right.

This is not going to be popular but Apple’s walled garden is why I am a customer. The fact that they don’t carry decades of baggage into to their ecosystem is a benefit. Did I hate that I had to leave a perfectly fine 2012 iMac because no more updates and missing features? Sure, but I got a decade out of one computer.

They control the hardware and software in a tightly integrated manner that works great. People who complain about this not being open… you’ve got other options. To me, it’s a product differentiator.

Before someone says I’m not capable of using a “real” OS, I ended up here in 2007 due to OSX with its *nix backend. I started time sharing on a VAX8800, built a career on Sun stuff, jumped to Linux in 1994 doing development (submitted driver updates, FAQs and more). I’ve never looked back and I’m certain I am as efficient and productive as I can be. I use Linux and Windows as well but for different things.

ngl, I hope they figure out more malicious compliance to make the Reddit management looks like fools before nuking it from orbit.

Man, fuck The Butcher. It was fun the first few times but he pops up like every other Nightmare Dungeon. No good drops either and isn’t worth the time it takes to kill him.

You are going to love this.

I can’t but it’s part of what enables their platform.

Twitter isn’t paying any bills. They have a contract with us as well and haven’t been paying anything for months.

Unpopular opinion but alcohol is basically poison. Weed still fucks you up and in no way should anyone be doing anything significant while high. It’s not the same as coffee.

I wouldn’t call the blackout milquetoast. It made the global news for days. What is needed is additional followup, which we seen such as moderators just giving up, setting the sub to NSFW, etc.

At any rate, I’m gone. Reddit management sucks. There was so many ways to allow third party apps while charging the AI models. Tiered API rates, license agreements and terms of use, mandate third party app API users allow their advertising, etc.

I was happy to pay $5/mo to keep using Apollo. Now I’m gone and wouldn’t go back after we saw Reddit’s masterclass in how not to run a business.
