It is can’t because this is how the door gets pushed open to making more and more paid versions of the operating system.

This invites more capitalistic practices into the “market”, and is what starts the downward trend.

I’m ok with selling software. But selling the OS at all just seems like a big step that should never be taken.

Selling a paid upgrade is kind of a gray area, but it should be an extra piece that gets installed separately, cross-compatible where possible, and shouldn’t affect your ability to upgrade versions for damn sure. I’ve never dealt with it directly, but if it’s like you said and you need to do a complete reinstall to upgrade versions but downgrade from pro to regular, then you’ve already detected the first tumor.

Yeah the entire existence of any “pro” version of anything is cancer.

It wasn’t meant as a judgement. Just a different way of phrasing how it’s typically used, or generally used. I guess it does kinda sound judgy, tho.

I was raised in a very red place and I am still finding pieces of it left behind after leaving it. In this case, word choice. I really didn’t mean it as any kind of insult or anything, but I really did mean “should” as in “typically”, not “ought to”.

Thanks for the answer. Most boomers I’ve ever known wouldn’t even ask, so I guess I’m still not as bad as them 😅

I am “Internet old” tho.

Honest question.

I have never heard of (or seen) wearing a belt underneath wear your shirt would cover, and on top of that, not wearing one where it should go.

Am I a boomer, or what is happening? Is this some kinda trend now?

Help me understand.

We could use more of this feeling.

That’s a sad sentence. I feel sad typing it. I feel sad reflecting on the truth of it. I feel sad every second that I don’t see breaking news of Trump’s (and musk, and (insert every currently elected Republican name here) brutality-record-setting tortuous death.

I wish he could die more than once, just so different kind of pain could be inflicted on him each time.

So yeah, any of you out there that feel this way, please take a trump with you. Take an RFK with you. Take a Boebert with you. Something like that, take at least one.

Fair. This whole thread is unpopular opinions, so it’s kinda natural for most people to disagree with each other.

Thread participation achieved. I’m not even mad. (งツ)ว

I made myself chuckle, too.

You’re welcome.

I don’t think a little buzz is ok either. Driving is dangerous at the best of times. Another reply somewhere in this thread already said it, but there’s no need to make it worse than it has to be.

Mine are unpopular, but in the other direction.

I think your first DUI offense should be the last time you drive. Period. I feel like the fact it’s so lax is due to people knowing they won’t be severely punished.

Isn’t this how they actually are? I’ve only seen 2 of these in my life, but both had the big button for a piss rinse, and the smaller one for the shit shoot.

Are you starting an aneurysm?

I wasn’t even trying to talk about him or his intentions. I just wanted to use a mutated version of his slogan to cheer on the Tesla destroyers.

Drill, baby, drill

Burn, baby, burn

Damn TS3 was still kinda wet behind the ears and maybe even still in beta last time I played with it. I only used it for one group and I cut ties with them.

I never even used it, I only know TS2 and it’s purplish, super basic ugly interface. (If anyone even remembers that- would’ve been back in mid to late 00s)

That would be a switch to a different app on like the 2nd offense to me.

Or buy a new computer offense. You got something going on there, and it’s not the site itself.

Something something ludicrous display.

Oh man reading the previous comment instantly reminded me of this problem I haven’t had any encounter with since I left high school. I’ve never heard of that, but if I ever had any reason to write anything I would love it to be one of these.

The only writing I’ve done in YEARS is signing my name on screens at doctor offices and pharmacies.

You know all the twitch streamers hate this.

I’m participating in this on principle, but mostly on bankruptness.

Where do you think the big bump last year came from?
