This is bollocks because countries can decide to put import tariffs to safeguard their home grown industries. No country in the world has zero import duties unless they don't have a local industry to protect.

Scumbag move right here.

Edit: Also why feeling so insecure over their dominance they have to ban people from using whatever frontend they want?

Sure but the title sounds interesting on it's own and prompted me to learn what it was. It's clickbait but there's no bait and switch when you visit the article.

And the description gives enough clue for me what the article is going to be about:

What happens when a large open source project dies.

Edit:

And I find that focusing too much about upvotes won't make for a good community experience. If the material is good the upvotes will eventually arrive.

Hmm sorry for calling you a Rube. You make a fair point.

hey accumulating stuff that you still find use for is better than throwing them away. And you said you give away stuff to other people for their use.. which probably saves even more devices from a landfill.

two verbose flags makes it extra verbose

tcpdump intensifies

But what tool did you have in mind?

yeah swinging swords makes that cheap metallic noise. Quests don't have the pull that we expect them to. None of the characters are interesting. No continuity with quests. I notice the bugs that Tod Howard never fixed but re-released with bigger textures, which only makes the greed more palpable.

You're a rube if you think corporations can't throw some money at interns do a rewrite in MIT and bypass GPL that way.

I would use the internet like I did back in 2005 I guess. Seriously... the necessity of these tech companies is a mixture of them sniffing their own farts too much, propaganda from them to ensure they are perceived as essential, and finally people being too lazy to find alternatives.
