the fact that Gabe said “piracy is a service problem” fifteen fucking years ago, and none of these fuckwits in content distribution have learned this at all is a source of continuous astonishment to me.

Every day, I feel more vindicated in my choice to switch and wipe my windows partition even with compatible hardware.

being happy

I don’t need superpowers, just let me not be depressed while retaining a functioning cock/not feeling numb to the world.

Alright, fun’s over, let the monkey’s paw curl.

are there any dating apps/sites that don’t suck?

Everything is either paywalled to fuck and back or beyond useless. Mostly because of Match Group, but even the few I’ve tried not owned by them are also shit.

This told me nothing I didn’t already know. Like I said, he was a dickhead, to almost every single person in his personal and professional life. But evil requires a level of maliciousness that transcends the people you are in physical contact with, imo – you have to be actively striving to make life worse for at least a few hundred people or more.

A dickhead and a shitty father, sure, I’m not defending his actions in the slightest. But “evil” would require him to have done something much worse than just treat his kid and the people in his immediate orbit like shit. Just my opinion.

Why, exactly? Genuinely asking. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m no Apple fan, and he was absolutely an insufferable douchebag to nearly everyone he knew; and was a verifiable self-righteous fuckwit who Darwin’d himself out of existence by choosing woo-woo bullshit over medicine for a very treatable cancer.

Evil, though, I think might be a stretch – Elon, Thiel, Vance, Trump, Murdoch, the Sackler family, the Koch brothers, etc. all excellent contenders for being truly evil – but afaik Jobs was just a dickhead with an ego the size of a blimp, and I think we ought not dilute that term with just your run-of-the-mill dickheads. Unless you know something I don’t about him.

Seriously, it’s insane just how little Russian military tactics have changed over the years – “Throw bodies at the problem until it’s no longer a problem” might as well be part of their culture now.
