Well, I'm certainly glad there a nasal spray that deals with the toxic mice tangles in my nose.

Shitty sample sizes are the majority of "research" nowadays. It's sad how hard it is to find any even in the triple digits.

Calling the ATARI computers a "bomb" is a bit disingenuous. The C64 and Amiga computers were more popular, but ATARI was still selling theirs by the millions as a close second.

Is that the video that uses a deceptive title on a different subject, only to rant about Tommy for the rest of the video for 3 hours?

Do you know how to break the cycle? Use open-source software. Use standard protocols that aren't locked behind some greedy corporation.

Why not take the features from Discord/Slack and integrate it into a new IRC or Jabber protocol?

And have it end up like Starbound? No way.

Is this just E3 v2.0?

Every single office chair I buy for myself and my family is followed by an immediate purchase of rollerblade wheels for that chair. Standard office wheels suck, and replacing them is really easy. They glide so well.

It's like that Woodstock concert in the 2000s. You can't just recapture magic like that by repetition.

Spontaneity is spontaneous.

Microsoft spent millions of dollars and clout to lock their OEM out of offering Linux on the desktop. There's a good reason why you don't see Linux PCs on the shelves of Walmart.

Oh, you mean something like GPL, which has been responsible for more technological freedom than any other concept in the past 30 years, except maybe the internet? Even the Internet was built on open standards and public RFCs, with billions and billions of Internet-bound Linux devices.

Let's not treat this like it's some new problem. The solution is right there. Just pick it up and use it, and thank your local OSS developer for actually maintaining the other software you use.

Sorry, you don't get to name drop A24 to try to sneakily connect it with a very not-A24 studio.
