It’s not a dev tool, it’s designed to force you to stay with the Windows environment by trying to regularise users to a proprietary intermediary management system.

So more unnecessary middle man trash designed to tie users more permanently to their OS choice. Nothing new then.

Why wouldn’t they, it’s not like anyone is making them act differently.

What does air smell like?

The corpos will get rid of copyright when it becomes inconvenient. Like when they want to use copywritten data to train AI models.

You can lead a troglodyte to knowledge but you can’t make them think.

I’ve got a better argument but it won’t hold up in court. If a company is making a profit then all costs of production, operation, and provision have been covered, every single shareholder from the individual worker to the CEO to the suppliers have all been paid adequately and fairly for their contribution, the consumers with the means and ability to contribute have, and I thank them for enabling the ability to socialise access to the product for the rest of the society that propped up the corporation so that it could produce.

If you want to argue that suppliers, producers, and workers haven’t been adequately and fairly compensated for their contribution then why is there a profit margin?

In fact, it’s morally acceptable to socialise the benefits and production of any corporation making a profit, though the law has this pesky tendency to call it theft.

Are you free to learn or consume as necessary for your survival from the society you’re expected to grow to support? No? Then you have a need to pirate.

I am an anti-theist. I am a follower of Jesus mythos. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi - “I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”

As long as a company is making a profit all costs have been covered, all employees, suppliers, and producers have been paid. Those in society who have the means and the will have ensured this product exists and has been paid for and I thank them for their contribution. That allows the rest of humanity to enjoy the socialisation of their contribution to the masses, who have not the means or the will, but who ensure the rest of the system is available and working to support everyone’s ability to contribute.

If you want to argue that employees, suppliers, or producers aren’t adequately paid, then why is there a profit margin?

I got my offal origins mixed up, the dish I was thinking of is a Namibian tribal food that uses the intact organs stuffed into the stomach. I’d filed it away under haggis in my head.

I assume whole organ haggis has gone out of fashion in most places in favour of the ground sort?

Why do you think the brits conquered the world? If you had to eat un-spiced haggis you’d probably want to do a little slavery and a touch of plunder.

Nothing is a more visceral depiction of mankind’s dominance over our environment than stuffing a creature inside itself and cooking it.

It probably is. A closer look it seems like it’s a ground haggis filling. Good stuff.

You take all of a sheep’s organs, and put them in it’s own stomach, and boil it.

What’s shown looks more like black pudding, though it could be a ground haggis sausage. Black pudding is a blood sausage using the pigs blood and binders like barley.

Also the dichotomy between a perfectly presentable plate of food and the discordant mess surrounding it.

Imagine a hydrolic press pushing a coke can through your leg.
