You know what, that's fair.

I saw a lot of discussion in the comments about their workers pay, but honestly, they make a great product. Wouldn't wanna be counting pennies in someone elses pockets. I donated a one time 25 bucks, I hope they will continue to ask for donations whenever they are in dire need of server running money.

"If you are using an iFrame to display a site that isn't yours, even for legitimate purposes, you have no control over that content—it can change at any time," Simmons warns. "One day instead of looking into an iFrame, you might be looking at an entirely different kind of portal."

Holy shit this guy is amazing.

I get it though. People trying to monetize your work which was purposely hosted for free without ads would drive me mad too.

Anon can't even win in his creative writing exercises. Wild world.

I appreciate your consideration but if you smoke regularly, chances are you don't truly realize how bad you smell and just how far the stench carries.

Also the argument of dying early is flawed. It's not just about dying early, it's about the quality of life you'll face at the end of your life. I don't mean to freak you out, but heavy smokers have a LOT of trouble doing anything physical in old age (climbing 10 stairs, standing up, walking a few steps, eating,...). I've seen firsthand how my grandpa that liked to take walks for hours a day went to basically disabled, in the timeframe of roughly ~15 years. All due to decreased lung capacity caused by smoking.

finally a decent use of this dumbass meme format.

I hate how the majority of the time this is used, it can be summed up with "girls boring, boys fun haha".
Thought we left that sorta thinking behind in elementary school?
Anyway, fuck gender stereotypes, we're all just humans trying to wing it.

I think the worst part of it all is the trust that is irrevocably broken now.
This is obviously a moronic scummy decision driven by greed, but it also goes directly against past decisions. As per this reddit post, Unity actually had a TOS in action that protected Developers against retroactive changes like this. Specifically, it stated that you could choose to continue using old versions of the engine and comply to the old TOS if an update to the TOS that you disagree with ever happened. This specific part of the TOS was deleted last year.

If they actually try to enforce this new crap on already released games (that accepted an older version of the TOS) then it would seem blatantly illegal (I'm not a lawyer though).

Even if they revert everything by tomorrow, the whole fiasco still shows where Unity's current interests are, and make the company a liability to deal with for any game developer.

Which humans are you blaming exactly?

I don't think it's fair to blame the users. They toggle bluetooth off and think it's off. How are they supposed to know "Bluetooth Off" means "Only some amount of Bluetooth is off"?
And I don't think designing a convincing phishing device is that much of a leap in logic. Bluetooth is off, so maybe the notification is legit from apple and needs authority for a connection?

If you blame the designers who left a backdoor in the bluetooth, then yea that's fair.

As of press time, Tomlin had browsed the Steam store while riding to work and bought Hi-Fi Rush, Dave the Diver, and Street Fighter 6, before ultimately just booting up Vampire Survivors again.

Didn't expect to be called out like that first thing in the morning holy shit.

Ever since I realized that people just make shit up on the internet, my life got a whole lot better.

I don't know, that comparison kinda humanizes a corporation that is very much looking to go public and make itself valuable to shareholders. I don't like to think of these websites as "friends".

Yes, reddit's a tragic shitshow, but there is absolutely no guarantee the same won't happen on any fediverse instance either. We should always look out to jump ship if we start to notice like a website is sacrificing user wishes for personal gain.

Ich finde, Reddit hat hier ziemlich offensichtlich gezeigt was sie vom Protest und von Mods halten:
"Entweder ihr macht was wir wollen, oder ihr fliegt."

Könnt ihr euch noch an den Vorfall erinnern, als (in 2016/17?) spez einmal behind-the-scenes Kommentare editiert hat von ein paar wenigen /r/the_donald Nutzern, weil er die ständigen Beleidigungen leid war? Der Aufschrei damals war riesig. Selbst wenn es "nur" um /r/the_donald Nutzer ging, war dennoch der generelle Konsens "Ein Admin sollte niemals die Community-Stimme zensieren/ändern".

Heutzutage werden ganze Subreddits mit neuen Moderatoren gestaffelt und mit willkürlich erfundenen Regeln bestimmte Einstellungen erzwungen.
Ich bin nicht mehr auf Reddit unterwegs, deswegen kann ich die Reaktion dieses mal nicht ganz ermessen, aber für mich persönlich ist hier der Vertrauen der Community irreperabel beschädigt. Warum sollte noch irgendjemand auf Reddit Kommentare/Beiträge verfassen (ganz geschweige moderieren) wollen, wenn die Willkürlichkeit der Admins alles bestimmt?
Ich hoffe stark, dass so viele authentische Nutzer wie möglich die Seite verlassen, und die Lurker irgendwann gelangweilt werden vom "neuen" reddit.
