I dunno man.
Company: Here’s a change.
Users: This sucks!
Company: Ok, let’s roll that back.
If the company were Apple, the change would stick. If it were Microsoft, the change would be rolled back for 2 weeks and then quietly re added.
5·9 days agoI have the same question. I game, write code, browse the internet and all sorts on Bazzite. (I actually moved from Pop to Bazzite because I couldn’t get my storage hdd to mount and stay that way on Pop (I am a Linux n00b, in case that wasn’t obvious. ))

Civil disobedience feels like a better approach. Forming human walls, information networks and rapid support responses slow and mitigate attacks on your community.
Applying pressure to your representatives also can help.

I was looking for something about sharing antibodies or something to do with disease resistance, but it’s not listed in the article
41·21 days agoWaow, look at all the money we saved with layoffs. Buy our stock!
Waow, look at all the growth we’re experiencing, we have to hire more developers. Buy our stock!
Not just the perfect beach body. The perfect body.
Of course, not all the companies survive and now there’s decreased competition, so we can shove prices up a little bit further
Getting real tired of the “boycott Mozilla! They take money from Google!” And “boycott Mozilla! They try to make money from their users!” Merry-go-round.

Don’t suffer fools, I guess. Life is too short to put up with people who don’t, won’t or can’t respect you. You don’t have to make it a big deal, in fact that might be the wrong move if you’re dealing with a narcissist. Instead become uninteresting when interacting with them. The Grey Rock technique.

9·2 months agoIt is seen as illegal activity, so if you are asking like this I would suggest you don’t attempt it.
7·2 months agoIf something is worth paying for I just do that up-front. (Outside of some exceptions where I actively don’t want to support the creator or license holder)

Yeah, but if they didn’t do anything then they’d get roasted and maybe sued for negligence.
Acronyms vs Initialisms
No one is going to try pronounce Fbi, it’s awkward.
There are terms that bridge the Acronym/Initialism divide. SQL-Sequel, URL-Earl and GUI-Gooey are some that come up fairly regularly in my line of work.
The bottom line is; Language is used to communicate concepts. We are lazy and do it as efficiently as we can get away with. The rules have changed a LOT to get us where we are today. It would be blind hubris to think the change will stop just because we don’t like it.
