This is actually nuts. I watched a video breakdown of this blog post and my jaw was on the floor. Super interesting stuff.

For me, the run right after I wake up is a part of how I process being alive.
In my experience, running is meditative in nature. I don’t know what mental state I’d be in without running in my life.
We’ll agree to disagree I suppose. The alternatives don’t necessarily have to be FOSS either. A perfect example of a viable alternative to a predatory “industry standard” exists in the audio production world; REAPER.
When I was in College, Pro Tools was the required software. Pro Tools at the time was a walled garden ecosystem, trapping anyone who sunk their hard earned cash into an environment rife with anti-consumer practices, hardware brand restrictions and invasive DRM.
It cost me over $600 CAD at the time for a bundle containing a feature-limited copy of Pro Tools and a Digidesign MBox.
Meanwhile, REAPER’s noncommercial license was $60. That $60 got you a full featured copy of the DAW with support for the next two full version upgrades (which turned out to be nearly a decade of updates). You could also use any hardware interfaces you desired without restriction.
REAPER also has a free trial that is full-featured. No restrictions at all, even the trial length is unlimited. Why? Because they respect the consumer and trust that if you find value in the software you’ll support their work by paying for a copy. That purchase is one of the best I’ve ever made.
In my experience, REAPER was equally as capable as Pro Tools or any other DAW on the market at the time. As of now I’d wager it’s the superior product.
A world where consumers are respected currently exists, its just not in the hands of the corporate world. The best way to make a better future for everyone in the software world is to not put up with anti-consumer practices and engage with companies and developers that respect our time and hard earned cash instead of treating us like cattle.
This is just even more justification to use alternatives. If a mass migration to alternatives occurs, those apps will flourish and more dev time can be arranged via new devs interested in volunteering or outright being employed to meet demand.
Adobe is only so big because of their userbase. Migrate that userbase to a less cancerous set of applications and the userbase stands to benefit greatly.
Very likely lol I’ll whoosh myself on that one haha
Email.
Fax is not secure, never has been and most businesses are using e-fax which is email with extra steps.
This particular dinosaur actually deserves to be Chicxulub’ed.
Please for the love of god abandon fax. I’m tired of troubleshooting it.
Dense games tend to provide strong rewards for your time. I think its always worth it to tackle a a game like this. EVE Online was one of those games for me back in the day. Dwarf Fortress and Caves of Qud are more recent challenges for me. I’m definitely getting this game soon.
Signed it! Seems to be just over 4k signatures at the moment. Let’s pump those numbers up!
Sex With Hitler was all I needed to see to know GabeN no longer gave a fuck lol
I bought this game immediately after watching this video. The game is excellent!!
Why does it need a remake? The original is beyond excellent. This remake culture annoys me. No one wants a remake of a Picasso or a Jackson Pollock, right? The originals are why they are desired. I wish we’d get used to leaving well enough alone. I’d never spend money on a remake of KOTOR because I still own the OG game on multiple platforms and love it.
This game is actually sick! I torrented it years ago and loved it so much that I bought it. Simple, yet challenging gameplay that’s big on spectacular vehicular destruction. Satisfying is a good word to describe this game.
You can’t? I literally never get notifications from YT Music. Pretty sure I have them disabled.
If i’m not sim racing, its BattleBit, Noita or Baldur’s Gate. Lots of fun!@
If you ask me, you seem to be looking for a fight here.
Here you go! https://youtu.be/TFolQUeWoog?si=6Ts5_aw9kyB-A-Ja
