There's nothing wrong with them wanting to make money. Granted, I think they're going about it in a hilariously stupid way. Their product is miles better than Slack. Regardless, I'm no longer willing to rely on them.

Tell me you've never worked on a CDN without telling me you've never worked on CDN. Compared to transit, last mile bandwidth is effectively limitless and free. Cache fill at the edge is important, last mile caching not so much.

I built exactly this board for a homebrew (S)NES controller. Simultaneous L+R inputs are converted to neutral and U+D are converted to U. Even with the interlock a player can gain an advantage by buffering inputs.
