This is why all the “everything is too expensive” complaints fall on deaf ears. The fact that these companies are used by so many is an easy indicator that all the “K-shaped” doomerism is just that.

You already valued your own labor at zero by giving it away for free. How is taking something you give away for free suddenly considered "stealing"?

Interesting. Everyone that read the article also heard that.

Why stop at a free password manager? Why not free food, clothes, cars, and everything else while you’re making demands?

Or is it just software that has zero value to you because it’s intangible and you intentionally ignore the time and effort other people spend on it?

No, it just shows they will kowtow, not that there will be any consequences if they don’t.

Meta is. That’s very clearly stated in the article and literally no one is disputing that fact.

> Yeah... as a US citizen and taxpayer I think I'd like that $4 billion back.

It was never yours in the first place. It was their money they kept, not money given to them by the government. I don’t know why this distinction is so difficult for people.

It’s kind of funny that all of the complaints about optionality apply equally to Vulkan. Google even created the same profile solution with “Android Vulkan Profiles (AVP)”.

I suspect Vulkan suffers from the same design by committee problem, which similarly caused it to miss seemingly basic features in the base spec that then need to be filled in with extensions and also made it too difficult for developers to want to move too.

It was sanctioned by the CEO. How much was their job actually at risk?

Apparently they live in a nursing home in 2020 still, because no one else is dying of covid anymore. Especially not young or healthy people within the last few years.

> They’d even distrust “stand further apart” if the wrong person said it.

They shouldn’t believe it no matter who says it. The entire concept of “social distancing” was completely made up and had no science behind it. It belongs in the same bucket of nonsense as “mask up between bites.”

Enforcing a healthy diet and exercise would have a vastly larger impact than any seatbelt laws in terms of reducing health care costs. Seatbelts and smoking always seem to be about as far as the advocates are willing to go though.

What is a speed light camera?
