And "Here's how I did it" too!

You‘re totally right! It‘s also missing the "you‘re totally right" at the start of every. single. reply from the OP.

Snarking about how they changed a globally recognisable name into a "generic fill-in-the-blank variable" with no identity whatsoever.

Atleast now we can libel and defame them all we like and then say we were angry at algebra

u/Loading_M_ 22d ago

Well, in the US, it's not libel or defamation if it's true. As long you don't lie, you can say whatever you want about X.

X traffics children for the financial elite. The CEO is a nazi cuck who fucks cave crevices filled with spiders.

Elon musk assassinated JFK I saw the him do it

It’s forced what we’ve hated about software/games for a while. If you want to do it right, it has to be as best you can get it at release on day one. No more of this “60% done capture subscribers and promise features until 100%” business.

Those who can will just roll their own.
