Seems like you're in for a rough time considering your competition is an Xbox Subscription with a huge library, including AAA games and Humble Choice which is basically your pitch, plus provides a bunch of titles to own each month and

I think for a subset of the table-top community, the damage is already done. Our group will be finishing up our campaign (probably about a month or so left) and then switching to a new system. That means a bunch of dropped dnd beyond subscr

Within capitalism, this is everything that exists. The phrase should effectively be banned in all marketing and service contexts across all industries.

Maybe it doesn't? At least not until medical science catches up to allow the level of social/global interaction we had been taking for granted for decades. In the history of our species, we have never been this connected on a glob

You're probably "sort of but not really joking", but I mean it would be on-brand to see them dropping a LinkedIn/Github integration. Show employers and recruiters how much unpaid work you do!.

I've read 9 out of the 10 culture books relatively recently and I don't remember even a hint of that idea ever coming up in any of them. The most common concept of mind "creation" documented are GSVs physically construct

This is probably a fairly hot take but I believe that researchers shoudn't normanize providing this level of detail unless they have been explicitly hired to do so. The industry is pretty messed up and it sometimes feels like researche

Low effort spam is easier to deal with then "marketing", because marketing is about reputation and intent not content. If there is a thread on the HN front page for some Cisco zero day and the top comment is explaining the user&#x

You should be allowed to pay for that convenience, but at the moment you're not because it's being susidized by run-at-a-loss startups that exploit their workers.

There are all these clients out there now that use far more memory then native alternatives and objectively perform far worse but they are all insanely popular and dwarf the alternatives in terms of user base. So I mean, "it's usu

Disagree strongly and as a user I feel distributions and package maintainers are a necessary defense against overly opinionated developers. I'm glad there is a layer there that will patch and configure to better integrate into the syst

> NZ is nice but it’s not all daisies and roses. You'll get no argument from me. Didn't mean to imply our processes are perfect. I do my fair share of complaining about the NZ political and legal landscape elsewhere. :)

Steam is a digital store and a consumer buys software from it. You can twist words and describe it using all sorts of other marketing bullshit but it's mostly in bad faith. It's why the NZ's consumer guarantee's act has

Not sure what your point is? Of course it's common practice. Of course it's useful information for the business. Of course it will be documented in their privacy policy. You just described basically all tracking and analytics. Thi

FLOSS existed before Github and it will exist long after it is gone. Financial sustainability has always been a problem for the movement but it's independent of a single repository host.

If you look around and see poverty and oppression in your own culture/country and your answer is "you should be grateful you're not in [worse country]", then you are part of the problem.
