The fact that the OpenBSD logo has to include its name spelled out really tells you everything you need to know, doesn't it.

The enshittification cycle:
Phase one, attract users by providing a good service.
Phase two, once the users are locked in, squeeze them for all they're worth by selling them to business customers (advertisers and/or data buyers).
Phase three, once the business customers are locked in, squeeze them for all they're worth by threatening to deny them access to the users on whom they now depend.
Spez seems to think Reddit has the pull to make phase 3 happen. I rather doubt it, but we'll see.
At least letting them talk in the name of free speech lets you know who the Nazis/fascists/white supremacists are
That's great and all, but knowing who the Nazis are is just step one. Without taking additional steps, that knowledge is useless.
It's phase three of the enshittification cycle. In phase one, you attract users by providing a good service. Once they're locked in, you squeeze them for all they're worth by switching focus to business customers. Once they're locked in, you squeeze them by threatening to deny them access to the users on whom they now depend.
Also, by kicking him out and then implementing it anyway, they take credit for his work. I wonder whether being discarded like a piece of trash the moment he outlived his usefulness came as a surprise to him. A very Trumpian move all-around.
About 80% of Dark Souls 2 consists of a detour to get around this bit of rubble.
A perfectly understandable reaction, but the company will be happy about that. If you willfully destroy a product you bought, they already have your money, and now you need to buy another one.
That's cute and all, but it ain't gonna be birds and deer who gets life off this rock once the Sun starts threatening to swallow it in a few billion years. We're screwing up badly in the short term, but we're the only hope Earth life has in the long term.
Oh please, don't quote that ketamine-addled frog at me. The whole thing is his fault anyway, he fucked up literally everything he touched:
So yeah. Every single thing this little green asshole ever said and did was wrong. If it weren't for him, the Republic likely wouldn't have even fallen in the first place. If Yoda says that the future is always in motion, the one thing we can be sure of is that the future is as solid as a rock.
Because people believe stuff they want to believe regardless of evidence. The same goes for religion, politics, conspiracy theories, UFOs, homeopathy, astrology, and various other assorted nonsense.
So? Death from old age is inevitable too, that doesn't mean I'm going to stop breathing or eating. All of life is just postponing the inevitable, but just because the inevitable is inevitable doesn't mean we should stop postponing.
Is it just me or is the K upside down? Surely this looks better?
thanks for using Leebra!
