Hey I’m participating for a few years now and I didn’t even know it.

I’m not trying to be difficult but I genuinely don’t follow. I print and write emails at work all the time and cannot relate.

What windows are you having randomly pop up? That might be width investigating because that shouldn’t be happening.

Firefox has been my daily driver for a decade but that doesn’t really change anything that I said.

Edge wasn’t that bad honestly, I prefer it over chrome and use it when I need to test a site on that engine.

Illegal where? What law does it break?

A few of those features are available on Notepad as well, just FYI.

Even better, imagine spending that with a scalper who isn’t going to honour a warranty.

Gross.

Didn’t mean to be so snarky mate. Have a good one.

Again, also nothing. Here, I’ll just quote the quote for you.

HP says the acquisition will bring Humane’s “engineers, architects and product innovators” to a new team called HP IQ, which it describes as an “AI innovation lab focused on building an intelligent ecosystem across HP’s products and services for the future of work.”

They don’t care about the IP or the hardware. They wanted the talent.

Nothing, and that’s why they are shutting it down. You should read the article, HP’s comments on what they get from the acquisition are directly quoted in it.

Unraid was worth every cent.

Then do it, is someone holding a gun to your head?

Just gonna leave this Tom Scott video here because I think it is an interesting watch.

They are effectively telling them what they can and cannot say by punishing them for not saying the thing the admin wants them to say.

This is a pretty open and shut first amendment violation, no?

I’d love to know their cost of storing all the YT videos and serving them.

Uh, no, that is not common parlance. If any human tells you that strawberry has two r’s, they are also wrong.

Who is “you guys”? A lot of blanket generalizations being thrown around here.

I genuinely don’t know who original commenter meant by “we”. It’s certainly not “everyone”, and it’s not the legislators, or the big tech companies, or most people with IP to protect. So who is “we”?

And I don’t know who “you guys” is in your comment is either. What am I a part of? This grouping “us vs them” thing going on is so damn odd to me, genuinely.

I stated what is, in my view, just a fact to challenge a strange assertion made by someone on the internet and at no point did it get pushed back on, instead the focus was completely shifted to a completely assumed stance I have and personal attacks. How can anyone have conversations this way? It’s insane.

My stance on piracy is complicated. I used to do it a ton, I do it a lot less now but still do some. I won’t go into more detail than that because my personal opinion on piracy was never the point here and not why I commented.
