For that pun you can fucking bee-low me.

Yes, shithead, the IT professionals tasked with setting up government computers do in fact know how to install a fucking browser extension.

That will absolutely include government accounts.

Google would get instagibbed.

Nah, not dumb at all. YouTube’s being super dicks about it but the uBlock Origin team seems to only be about half a tick behind with getting updates out.

“I have my ad blocker set to not block ads and Google isn’t complaining about me blocking ads.”

rilly.

IF? Are you paying attention to what’s going on with Chrome?

Google is introducing a bullshit system that will ultimately let them control what the browser can and can’t display.
They are working to eliminate ad blockers entirely.

Their entire fucking goal is to lock down YOUR FUCKING BROWSER so they can send you any ads they want, at any time they want, without them even having to be served through a website. They also want to push their “security” bullshit so that if you’re using a non-Chrome browser you get excluded from the internet.

And right now the overwhelming majority of browsers are Chrome based.

The EU will likely not let this happen, but the US has no balls when it comes to carving up shitbags these days.

At points they’ve updated multiple times per day.

Fully blocking only if you aren’t using uBlock Origin, which you just have to update the filters on.

Complete waste of effort.

Alphabet needs to be broken up.

It’s all about PayPal, isn’t it?

Holy fucking shit.

PayPal is Musk’s Obama burn.

PayPal shitcanned him because he’s a fucking idiot so he takes that money, gets SpaceX going and memes Tesla to success by sheer accident. At the point everyone’s thinking he’s “Rill Loaf Toony Sturk” he’s STILL fucking boiling that PayPal canned him because he’s actually terrible at everything. He then proceeds to start sniffing his own farts, building rescue submarines that would never work, calling people “pedo guys”, impregnating every woman that will take the payoff to have his moron seed implanted in them, moving to Texas and wearing a fucking cowboy hat to show how much of a REEL MAYUN he is (despite the fact that fucking nobody wears a cowboy hat in this state outside of actual cowboys and people that want to announce that they’re fucking idiots to everyone).

He renames Twitter to X so trigger his nostalgia balls and then a few months later announces he’s going to replace banks with X. Which would also, theoretically, replace PayPal.

He really is nothing more than a little bitch that happens to have money.

Elon literally wants an underclass of peasants that owe him money so he can ship them off to Mars and act as his indentured servants.

The man is a fucking idiot.

“The best interest of the business” is far too lenient in its wording.

And yet that’s how it works, because business is not a linear thing. Do you have any idea how long “MUXEMOOSE PROOFITS!!!” types have been whining about the price of Costco’s hot dog?

Well good news… you don’t have to fucking answer to stockholders. That’s a fucking lie perpetrated by Harvard Business sociopaths and their bootlicking bitchboys.

All you have to do is what’s in the best interest of the business. If someone doesn’t like it they can sell the fucking stock.

I left waaaaay back when they decided that everyone had to have their shitty launchers and logins and basically turned into Autodesk.

I deal with one Autodesk at a time. And it’s Autodesk.

Find me a performance patch in any Paradox game that requires you to buy a fucking DLC to apply.

Or maybe just quit bullshitting.

FFS, we're talking about a relatively small developer/publisher that continually supports and develops most of their games for the better part of a decade (or more, like EU IV). I thought this shit is what people wanted but what it seems most gamers want is just any excuse to fucking whine.

Yeah, my thought is that this is a game they'll be supporting for 8-9 years so what the fuck does it matter if it runs like dogshit on day one? Don't fucking buy it until the performance increases and the problems you mentioned are ironed out.

It really is that simple.

Anyone that expected this game to be perfect on launch was clearly not around whenever Cities: Skylines launched. The performance was godawful to the point that I refunded it. A couple of months and a couple of patches later shit was cleared up and I repurchased it. Didn't have an issue after that.

So yeah, the whole "Why doesn't this brand new game not have the same performance and features as a nine year old game with numerous DLCs and mods?" thing is getting fucking tiresome.

1. Non-commercial and ethical clauses. These are commonly seen attempts to restrict licenses in violation of OSD 6, “No Discrimination Against Field of Endeavor.” These types of clauses limit where, why and how the software can be used.

It's that simple. Any attempt to restrict who can use the software, and how they can use it, renders it OSD incompatible. Chiefly, with this:

1. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor
   The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.

I suggest you learn how free software actually works unless you want to look like an idiot.
