He’ll be important to dismantling democracy for Peter Thiel if all goes according to plan though

Yeah bring back season 2 critikal

Lol “is Tywin Lannister a major investor of the Lannisters?”

The real magats want a fascist dictatorship

The ancaps want https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Enlightenment

Because somehow they’re always smarter and will come out on top

Both of them benefit from having enemies that the public blame while the systems below them are ripped apart to build the new worlds that ate currently being argued about like babies on twitter.

“Trump bewildered by effect of having qualified staff and cabinet members spending their days doing their jobs rather than licking boots and arguing on Twitter”

Needs thigh high socks too

Fascism always needs an enemy. Start with this list, slowly grow it over time while most Americans are blissfully unaware until it finally affects them but is too late.

That’s pretty awesome, I didn’t know they had that. Seems like the sort of thing that should be like an EU enforced license structure. If anything it would make Adobe pucker their buttholes considering their asinine and predatory pricing strategy.

Yes, a lawsuit, a fine, etc are all "cost of doing business." If it costs a million dollars a year to use eminem's music, but engages 150 million of their 2 billion users into engagement and ad revenue that nets 50 million dollars, it was a very lucrative payment to eminem, and now they will certainly be willing to do the same for other popular artists at that price point.

You mean subscribe to them right? You can't buy Jetbrains products to use in perpetuity. I pay for their all products pack. They have a 40% continuity discount after two years, which is nice. I would agree they aren't terribly expensive for commercial software, but they are competing in a space full of free and/or open source alternatives, unlike many production-level commercial softwares.

That being said, their AI integration features are awful across the board, whether it's their own AI or copilot.

And while I much prefer jetbrains stuff to something like vscode, it's way more about UI uniformity for me. VS Code extensions outside the top 20 tend to slap themselves wherever they want, with html/css dialogues that don't fit the UI, and there's often like 6 versions of an extension that's like "this one is deprecated, but also the other one is deprecated, but the new one is made by microsoft but it's actually 3 extensions now." Whereas generally jetbrains extensions fit within my action panel, toolbar items, and can move widgets to different sides of the UI so that version control stuff, code analysis/structure stuff, external integration/database stuff, and project trees all get their own dedicated part of the workspace
