.NET Framework was actively developed for two decades. It's not a jab at them to finally move on to a new runtime while simultaneously providing a very excellent migration path. And all the things Microsoft "hypes up them drops af

It's not about having to be like Android, we're talking about Apple abusing its high market share. With a 50% market share in the U.S., most app developers have no choice but to do whatever Apple demands or lose half their busines

Is it possible to block in avatars this way? Kind of like Habbo hotel.

I always laugh when people talk about how the Apple way is the only safe way when Android has been doing this for years while also supporting alternate stores/sideloading. Your grandma is going to use the App Store regardless of whethe

My take on /r/antiwork is that people not working is the end goal, which is the hope for a true futuristic utopia right? Obviously we can't reach that yet, so people compromise by wanting better working conditions in the mean
