Because most people don’t exactly want a community-led social platform that respects you and empowers user freedom, even if some say they do.

Get off your high horse. I work for a software company, regularly participate in beta testing and am very tech literate. Mastodon was agitating to use when I signed up and not intuitive. The community I signed up in also deleted my account during a “whoopsie”. A terrible experience drove me off with no desire to go back for such a tiny and relatively stagnate user base on an unstable platform. If that was my experience, the average person will absolutely not like Mastodon.

Yes they can be that ignorant. Let’s stop pretending people are smart. The last 10 years has proven people are raging morons and proud of it.

This does not excuse having a power button on the bottom, thats just ridiculous.

Asking in earnest, but why is a power button on the bottom so egregious? I’ve owned various Macbooks over the last decade and I rarely use the power button - and when I do in recent years it’s for TouchID. I leave my MBP open regularly, but have my battery settings set to automatically turn off the monitor and put the computer into sleep mode. I’m just not getting why it’s such a big deal and it’s mostly coming off as “grr apple bad, no like”

You seem very pissed off about absolutely nothing. Maybe a Mac just isn’t for you. Chill out and maybe log off for a bit

Yep - It was found in the frozen food section

Maybe a hot take, but those currently into crypto and Musk aren’t that bright.

Actually I’m just aware of history. And I wasn’t even talking about Russia, you illiterate boob. Pick up a book. It’s not difficult. The US has done a great job meddling in many, many countries over the last 80 years - common knowledge that’s easy to come by. PS Putin is a tool and since the only person having sus behavior here is you, stop muddying the waters. If anything, you’re an Israeli misinformation bot

The US, Israel and Ukraine can get fucked. Other countries should ignore their bull shit bullying and help Cuba. The US and Israel and international bullies and have gotten thousands killed.

It seems superfluous to complain about a word’s use when you don’t have a better alternative. Language is ever growing and evolving, especially slang. An English speaking time traveler would not be able to communicate very well with English speakers from 500 years ago. Let people have their things.

List of a few of Nintendo’s new IPs from the last 15 or so years:

• Arms
• Good Job!
• 1-2 Switch
• Dillon
• Splatoon
• Snipperclips
• Pushmo
• Steel Diver
• Fluidity
• Nintendoland

Just because you aren’t buying/playing them doesn’t mean they aren’t making them. Let’s also not ignore the amount of time to develop a game has increased significantly or how gamers overwhelmingly choose to buy games from well-known IP. They are a company and need to pay their employees. I’m not a fan of Nintendo’s litigation practices, but I’m also not a fan of how whiny and bitchy gamers have become. If they aren’t whining and or bitching, they are harassing developers and actors.

Most people tend to incorrectly think

I mean, Musk and Tesla oversold and mismarketed the feature. Don’t blame the consumer here.

I would much rather him be thrown into a prison cell and his assets seized to pay back all the unpaid bills he has collected over the decades.

I’ll mourn them but now knowing this gross imbalance of funding it’s frustrating that CEO still has a job - and they will surely get a golden parachute while every other employee will just lose their job.
