Quoting: EikeYou being responsible doesn't help about anybody but yourself ...
That would indeed be a strong implication of my saying that I take responsibility for my own buying decisions. It's also a strong implication of the phrase, caveat emptor.

Quoting: Eike... e.g. it doesn't help Valve.
Thanks for the example, but I understood your phrase "doesn't help about [sic] anybody but yourself," but what of it? Do you think I should help Valve beyond being a paying customer?

Quoting: EikeThe problem always aren't the responsible adults, but the others.
What others? Who are you talking about, and why and how are they "a problem" for you? I don't mean to sound strident, Eike. I feel like you're trying to say something, but, really, the more I try and find meaning, the less I see you saying.

Yay, under-ocean swimmin' explorin' game on Linux! Oh, and one minor correction. Where it says, "While it's sad we don't have Subnautica ... " I'm pretty sure it should read, "While it's a travesty and fucking ridiculous we don't have Subnautica ... " ;)

...by taking the most spineless position possible that avoids actually having to actually do anything.
I hear you, but I'm an adult and fine with taking responsibility for my own buying decisions.
He wasn't talking about your responsibilities, but about theirs.
Yes, yes, and which are whose, etc. I pretty much had to know that for my response to make a lick of sense, but thank you all the same. :)

Microsoft acquires GitHub for some loose change
4 Jun 2018 at 6:51 pm UTC Likes: 4

From the beginning, everything Microsoft (why don't I see more penis jokes about their name?) has done has been not only about improving their bottom line by improving themselves and their product, but also damaging, killing, buying out their competition. [External Link]. They have done nothing worthy of anyone's trust, but perhaps trusting Microsoft to fuck people over and take away every freedom they can.

I'm glad to see so many people here saying that they left or are going to leave Github, it's reassuring to see that the Linux and Foss community are aware that Github is no more. Everything Microsoft touches turns to shit. Profitable shit, but shit all the same.

What Linux games are you looking forward to this year? Here's my top picks
