At an individual level I appreciate when an app or service I use maintains all records from the start of our relationship, I’ve infrequently found myself going back and looking for something, and it’s always a breath of fresh air to see tha

Very impressive, when TBC said they were implementing their app in swift for Windows I wrote it off as vaporware that would never ship, as the goal seemed too audacious and unnecessary, but they did it and continued to push forward!

As long as we’re talking about epic: is it an exclusively self hosted product? I don’t understand how it’s so susceptible to ransomeware compared to nearly every other cloud platform. You never hear about someone’s salesforce being ransomwa

<insert “and this point I’m too afraid to ask” meme> Can anyone explain how Wayland and X(?) relate to Linux? Like what’s the windows equivalent? I’ve used Ubuntu desktop a few times, I keep liveUSB versions of mint, Suse, and Ubuntu

Again and again we’re seeing people with lots of book knowledge and zero “street smarts” you’d think basic hygiene would dictate that you don’t save your browser history when it includes queries about how to commit crimes. Maybe use a brows

You continue to hurl nonsensical insults instead of meaningfully engaging in the topic at hand. I’m sorry you’re feeling so hurt and upset, hopefully you’ll heed my well intentioned advice and take a sabbatical from your culture war, just t

Are you ok? You're coming off as more and more unhinged each time you comment. I'd highly recommend you step away from the computer and step outside, enjoy the fresh air, take your mind off of your troubles. I can say honestly I h

> only a dead Palestinian is a good dehumanized Palestinian, they are all the same. Is that what you believe? That's a pretty grotesque thing to say, even if it's not really clear what it means. Instead of failed attempts to

tbf, I don't think he has another job, so if he's only creating 3 comics a week and writing his books, there is def enough time as a side project to put out a fun annual comic that requires a bit of work, obviously it would need t
