I recently cancelled spotify and switched to a selfhosted navidrome server to stream my personal music collection.

There is that weird conspiracy theory that soybeans contain an estrogen adjacent substance which makes men more feminine. Complete nonsense but it gets especially funny when these people are advocating for cows milk instead of soy milk, because the former actually contains mammalian estrogen.

I don’t need to be a three star Michelin chef to realize that the plate of shit I have just been served is in fact a plate of shit. Similarly, I also don’t need to be a game developer to see that the buggy mess of a game gearbox just released is not worth my time.

I can see how you could argue that nuclear reactors qualify as clean energy but calling natural gas green is just ridiculous. Might as well call a diesel generator green energy because it creates less emission than burning lignite.

Done, but what kind manipulative piece of shit wrote these questions. The question where you get to sort which of your rights you think is least important is especially egregious. Its like a torturer asking you which of your limbs you like the least before cutting them off.

Don’t worry, all your cash transactions are traced as well. Banks just record the serial numbers when you use the ATM and once again when the store returns the cash to the bank. Source(de)

Wouldn’t alcohol free gin simply be herbal tea?

I love it as well it makes everything way easier. You can even run containers with it if you install quadlet. I just recreated most of my homelab containers using it.

Sounds an awful lot like what YandereDev did when he was still relevant.

Yes, I think calling it fraud is a fair conclusion, but what do you mean with “they knew it was closing”? This decision is completely in the hands of Ubisoft. Something doesn’t stop being fraud just because someone only decides to defraud you 2 months after they sold you something.

Sony actually issued full refunds to all customers that bought Concord.

‘The Crew’ by Ubisoft was sold for several months before they decided to shut it down. This would have at least forced them to communicate that before taking peoples money. I am also pretty sure that publishers don’t want to put this information on the package because it could seriously hurt sales. So the effect of this labelling requirement might be that publishers build the game in a way that enables self-hosting.

I think the commission will take action in some form. The worst case scenario in my mind is that they will only require clear labelling. Similar to what they did with smart phones recently. While this not exactly what I am hoping for, having “This game will at least be playable until XXXX” on the package or store page would still be a massive improvement over the status quo.

Rich assholes with way too much influence and by extension people who would get fired by said assholes if profits dip for a microsecond.

Looking though the related patents, fart filters certainly seem to be a hot topic among inventors.
Here is a patent for a literal butt-plug fart filter.
This one is from last year.

The source code is freely available and GNOME isn’t beholden to Canonicals decisions. If the Ubuntu devs want to keep X11 around nobody can stop them from maintaining it themselves, or pay somebody from the GNOME team to do it for them.

I never spent a single cent at their store and probably never will, but since Epic is so keen on burning money I am happy to help them with that.

You can just buy them for one year and keep using the perpetual fallback license. Also, they can fuck right off with their planet incinerating automatic plagiarism chat bots.

Most of their IDEs you can use for free for non-commercial purposes and even if you need to buy them; when you compare software development to any other profession our tools are incredibly cheap. You can get all the Jetbrains IDEs for less than 300€. Compare that to a HDL simulator or a 3D CAD application like Autodesk. These easily cost several thousand euros each year.

New ones probably use something newer. The 20 year old elevator in a hospital will only be upgraded if something breaks.
