WhereIsTheTruth

Every year the same debate, every year the same Microslop apologists in the comments, every year nothing ever changes, every year Microslop's market cap keeps groing, every year the same problems

Microslop should have been dismantled decades ago, it's now too late, we need a paradigm shift so that Microsoft no longer affects our society

The West spent decades throwing money at software and services

Now they can't keep up because they never built the infrastructure to actually power any of it

You are right, in the grand scheme of things, Windows is probably only 20% of gaming market share

PlayStation and Roblox have the same MAU as Steam, that says it all

Steam's MAU probably includes people who boot their PC and have steam open in the systray

Billions of dollars, yet not for thee

The game where you, the people, will always be the loser

JetBrains Mono

That's the one i have been using for many years, look like i made the right choice

Another W for Microslop

We truly should be proud of that joke of a company

I can't help but interpret these stories as psyops

They want to do what US Big Tech already is doing

Y'all are bunch of hypocrites

Typical example of a fraudster

Greed knows no limit

OpenAI is Microslop, so it's the classic EEE, nothing new to see

It's like with systemd now planning to enforce gov. age verification

People will censor you if you dare say something negative on this website

So i guess, wears a clown hat "congrats!"

You remind me of this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46708678#46709862

Kagi wants to exist in a world that doesn't need it anymore

This website eats a whole CPU core

Another W from the web developers mafia

As long as cronyism remains the primary qualification for leadership, nothing will ever change, worse, it's only going to get worse

Accountability now, send these people to prison

I already hate it

There is a massive, pathetic drop in quality from the system designs of the past compared to the garbage we are seeing nowadays

You can tell they are fully embracing slop and stupid design

Tehy are trading efficiency and elegance for bloat, and it is absolute trash

They have stopped engineering, they abstraction junkies

OGs don't want to be associated with any of that trash, and it shows

What a boring civilization

Linux was compromised by Big Tech a loooong time ago, we are lucky to have solid alternatives, but for how long?

Why team up with a hardware manufacturer that is forced to comply with both the American Security Chip Act and the American Cloud Act?

I thought GrapheneOS was all about privacy and non compliance with Big Tech?

I can't find an alternative to Terminator, being able to drag and drop panels to create layouts is such a strong workflow that it's very hard to give up

I did give Ghostty a try, the turn off was Adwaita, the tablet UI for the tabs and context menu.. i just can't

We are not allowed to be compassionate with you or speak against Israel, US and UK, otherwise we'll get banned

Not everyone speaks English natively—most have relied on Google Translate in the past, and now they turn to AI tools. There's nothing wrong with that, provided they're using these tools to express their own thoughts rather than for spam or botting.

^ And that's what i just did

Classic hackernewers ;)

Treating this as a neutral ground truth is a recipe for data poisoning

LinkedIn is the ultimate intelligence test: if you register, you have lost

D is a treasure we should continue to cherish and protect

A language with sane Compile Time features (Type Introspection, CTFE, mixins, etc)

A language that can embrace C ecosystem with sane diagnostics

A language that ships with its own optimizing code generator and inline assembler!

A compiler that compiles code VERY fast

A compiler with a readable source code that bootstraps itself in just 5 seconds

People who dunk on it "bEcAuSe iT Is nOt MaInsTrEaM" are clueless

You like me for my (always right) conspiratorial takes

I got another one:

Look, follow the money, Microsoft knows Windows 11 on handhelds is a dumpster fire right now, and they are not ready to drop their own "Xbox Portable" yet

So how do they keep the market from moving to the alternative SteamOS/Valve?

They trojan horse the "alternative"

Think about it: Bazzite pops up, gains massive community "trust", every traditionally pro-MSFT media talk about it, and then coincidentally becomes the loudest voice trashing GPD's HW support, why would they do that?

It's a classic Embrace, Extend, Extinguish play

FUD: Use Bazzite as an "undercover" $MSFT project to make GPD look like a risky, unoptimized mess

Damage: GPD takes the hit because they are actually trying to innovate, while the "community" devs (who are definitely on a $MSFT gang) tell everyone to just buy an Rog Ally ($MSFT Partner) or wait for the next Microsoft Xbox handheld

Pivot: Once GPD is sidelined as a "niche hobbyist risk", Microsoft drops a polished Handheld UX for Windows, Bazzite magically "loses funding" or support, and everyone gets funneled back into the Game Pass ecosystem on "approved" hardware

Bazzite isn't a "community project", it's a trojan hose

GPD bet on the wrong horse thinking that community was neutral

It's better to laugh than to get censored, thank god, this is not Iran

Replacing merit with social signaling.. ..sigh..

The enshitification of GitHub continues

Funny how Europe's "concern" for digital health only kicks in when a non US platform starts winning
