The fact they changed the headline is itself praiseworthy, but the fact it was click bait and sensationalist to begin counters it.

The point about making the older stuff cheaper is something that isn't mentioned as much as it should be in these debates.

Ultimately even if the older stuff is worse and requires more attention and monitoring (less convenient), it is still better than nothing.

What is the opposite of "don't dead open inside"? This works both ways.

This guy has tanked all of his previous enterprises due to his poor decision making and lack of knowledge. What in their right minds made them think this would be any different?

At this rate he will never be able to vote.

By the end I completely forgot he was talking about San Francisco, and I think that is the point.

You aren't wrong that telecom companies are trashy, but being a dick to a support agent isn't the right way to go. Support staff are more willing to help and work with you if you aren't yelling at them right out the gate and blaming them for something they have no control over.

You know what else kills a human? Forcing them to give birth even if they are not healthy enough to do so.

If you are going to make talking points at least be cohesive.

I don't understand how it is so hard for people to clean up after themselves. Our parks and trails in the US are filthy. There is trash on the ground and garbage cans 10 feet away.

It is really sad that they had to erect this barrier, but it is laughable that people can't respect nature when the entire purpose of their visit is to admire it.

Do NOT blame the devs for this. They are not the ones to decide the direction of the product or the priority of the tickets they work. Blame upper management for making these poor decisions and the product managers for being spineless and not pushing back.

Their decision to profit off the project was their downfall.

Nobody wants to invest 2 months paycheck into hardware that the developer is going to drop support for in 6 months.

Hardware is too expensive for the average Joe to buy and those of us who can afford it are tired of being burned by companies that provide subpar service then drop support for the thing. Cool, bleeding edge tech means little if there is little use for it or if nobody can afford it.

Not a hot take at all. Asking someone to go from a GUI heavy operating system to a command line heavy one and be just as productive is lunacy. Like all major changes it is important to ween off the old thing.

My biggest hurdle with the switch has been permission related issues, and you can't deal with those cleanly with a UI, and every help thread under the sun throws out a bunch of command line commands giving a solution without explaining why those changes are needed. It may seem like Unix 101 to experienced Linux users, but it is really cryptic to newcomers coming from operating systems that are...cough more lenient with their permissions.

There is also a mentality that UIs are much more idiot proof than command line. UIs are written by people who actually know the OS so we can't accidentally delete our home folder because of a typo. It is a very legitimate concern.
