I think it doesn't necessarily have to be dominant to be considered a success. It's good for people to have the option to choose a free alternative if they want to, where they can be in control of their own data rather than it bei

to me, it sounds like a made up scenario. Are there actually any such cases of printers being destroyed by third party ink? Even then, you could say the warranty is void if the printer is damaged because of the ink rather than across the bo

I think the comments here about cloudflare aren't trying to justify what LaLiga is doing, just pointing out that cloudflare does the same equally wrong thing ultimately. If you've ever ended up with an IP cloudflare decided is sus

I don't really understand what point you're trying to make. Are you just arguing semantics about the choice of words I used for the fun of it, or do you actually disagree with something I said?

same as php hate, mysql had some questionable design decisions and legacy hacks, which are mostly not that relevant today except for causing some warts on the interface (like e.g. utf8mb4, mysql_real_escape_string)

I would say it's more the case that the users who suck are both the loudest and also seem the loudest. If you get 10 people saying thank you and one person cussing you out, it might still ruin your day. And of course a lot of people ju

I think "what's art" is another discussion, this is just about ownership. And of course I can also take a camera and take 100 pictures of my ceiling and I'll have copyright without effort, but that's just the price

I don't really agree. I can in the span of 10 minutes get you 100 ai pictures of a mountain without lifting a foot. But if I want to give you 100 photographs of a mountain, i have to actually go to one. And obviously "the photogra
