They claim that they don’t link/save your search history so although they have your details for payment, technically it’s not linked. If they aren’t lying…

You’re accusing Cory Doctorow, the guy who invented the phrase “enshittification”, of making a blog post that’s really an advert…? Really???

Depends on the age of your tracks, if you have old Victorian bridges etc or aging signal systems it can be very hard indeed.

(London btw)

Have a read on the trouble the 2600 guys have been having sending out emails for the next HOPE conference - the junk filter is also great at filtering out topics it deems unsuitable.

How do you provide evidence you didn’t use something???

Can only speak for the UK but as the lowest civil court here, small claims decisions are not binding on any other court (including other small claims courts) but they are considered “pervasive” and thus a judge should be aware and take them into consideration.

He said he was UK based… 100% unenforceable, an employment tribunal wouldn’t even bother hearing it

Did he say he wasn’t reviewing any longer or would now just be a contributor instead of a more active role?

Pronounced “shitter”

If you replaced “company” with “monopoly” in your last sentence, I agree.

Also it depends what’s driving that attitude… if it’s an ethos from Gabe then great but he won’t be around forever… what happens when he dies/retires?

Many companies have started with great ethics that went out of the window when the founders moved on, and Steam is in a fantastic position to enshitify if it wanted to.

Fingers crossed on Larian getting a licence for Traveller…

You have the same problem as my mother who also cannot distinguish between being told she is wrong and being called a liar.

Although it’s not free, Kagi has been a dream

Thanks, will give it a try!

Best thing about Evernote was its web clipping extensions… anyone use one that’s as good or better…?

Nice generalising there… given all my friends are Android/Windows users I wasn’t trying to show off when I switched over, I just wanted an ecosystem that works when I want to do something… too many times in both Windows and Mint did I have to spend time setting up the system to do something instead of just getting on with it.

Do we have a Fediverse equivalent of Facebook yet…?

Nice ad hominem…

He was also creative director for the original Ultima Online game and Star Wars Galaxies… both awesome and innovative MMOs at the time…

I mean I guess it could happen… so I guess why trust anyone? May as well just switch it all off!
