It's really worth a thought just about everywhere. For the millions of dollars spent on proprietary solutions, not only could open source projects be refined into something as good or better than proprietary solutions, but that would become a public good everyone on earth would benefit from.
It's insane how badly Microsoft has managed Windows since Windows 8. There's disaster upon disaster upon disaster, stuff that has been fundamentally broken for a decade.
I guess in a sense it shows how powerful OS monopolies can be, that people can have products that don't work properly for so long and it doesn't materially affect their market share.

Jesus no kidding! I'm imagining a game where you get two or three layers deep into games within games and everyone gives up and goes to play mario kart instead.
Imagine pretending to be Latino and not knowing the difference between libre and gratis
Imagine working for somewhere that won't exist in 6 months and this is your resume building.
"I've got good news and I've got bad news. The good news is that we've prescribed some drops for your cough. The bad news is that you can never get married now"
"But I don't understand what this has to do with my cough..." "Everything! Hurry before it's too late, or I'll send you away and we won't be able to do anything about your cough!"
I sort of want to create a new website, FBXL Fact Check where we fact check basic facts about the world.
Fact check: No, the sky is NOT blue
Fact check: No, water is NOT wet
Fact check: No, 1+1 does NOT equal 2
And each one of them would start with the line "While it is true that [thing I just said was not true]"

Fog of proxy war, so you can't trust anything either of them say, but it would be funny as hell if that was true.
That cuts both ways. I've seen a lot of longstanding communities lately where a few people show up, declare themselves the new kings, that their way of doing things is the way things are done now, and not a whole lot changes because why would it? If you're entering a space inhabited by a bunch of people, it is sensible to expect you to become a part of it, but not come to dominate it necessarily.
Federal investigations to shut down companies with the wrong politics. Great to see the left learned the right lessons from mcarthyism.

Huh, turns out that twitter users aren't interested in migrating to a site run off of parts scavenged from a roadside sign.
Guess my loss, eh?

Is a man not entitled to not bang a 90 year old socialist?
'No!' says the man in Washington, 'Bang her for the people.'
'No!' says the man in the Vatican, 'Bang her for God.'
'No!' says the man in Los Angeles, 'Bang her for everyone.'
I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different.
I chose the impossible. I chose... Rapture.
