I'm sure the author of the article has a really valid reason why not being able to put a ringtone on their phone symbolises the downfall of the glorious apple empire, but my experience with iPhone users is that most of them have them on silent 24/7.

Very helpful if you're in a conversation with someone and they've asked you a question which you can't answer without translating something.
Since then i've gotten married, tripled my salary, lost a bunch of weight, gave up drinking and smoking, and basically turned my whole life around.
ADHD sucks, especially as an adult. But shit, its 2016. you can do something about it.
But oh no! the boat sunk! the statue is well protected, but its at the bottom of the ocean! You can see the statue, glimmering at the bottom of the ocean, but you can't reach it.
So you do what anyone would do, you try to retrieve it. You think to yourself "this statue is beautiful, and its worth so much money! If only i spend less than the statue is worth, then I've made money!"
You send little robots and divers and all manner of things to try and retrieve the statue. Months turn into years, but you try to get this statue. You can see it, its right there just out of reach!
And suddenly, you've spent OVER 500k to try and get this statue back. You've lost money trying to retrieve it. And its still there, at the bottom of the ocean. Glimmering and shiny, taunting you.
Basically, this is the position you're in. You've essentially been donating your potential earnings towards trying to retrieve this statue. It might be time to give up on the statue, and go find some other shiny thing.
Victim blaming?
>the admin switch the repo to a free organization account and add some of the top contributors to the team
if the admin of a project doesn't care enough to maintain their project, what makes you think that they would bother adding users to an organisation?
