Perfect. What are your specific complaints?

Give some concrete examples of what you consider unappealing about the language, and maybe people will take you seriously.
Have you ever used it? Because I have used it every day for the last five years, and it is great. Tell me about your personal experience? Or are you just a fan boi dissing things you know nothing about?
Open Source does not automatically equal good. Google has from the beginning been able to use the open source label to divert attention from their true goals, access to all information.
Do not underestimate the system. The system has been around a long time. I remember in the 90s thinking how the web would never be corrupted by the system. You know, it sees censorship as a flaw and routes around it. Information wants to be free!
Well nothing is more of a threat to the system than cryptocurrency. The ability to control the money supply is essential to the current power structure, and they will not lose that control without a fight. And do not underestimate the fight they can put up. Put succinctly the government is the one entity with the power to arrest you. That would be the last step, but it is on the table.
This reads like some typical anti-fed/banks rant. It is not meant to be. I have mixed feelings about all of this honestly. To everyone who wants to smash the system, be careful what you wish for. I don't think it will be the libertarian dream you think it will be.
That was great. I had seen one with David Lee Roth but the idea is the same. And it makes kind of a good point about all of this, there is no way you can capture the magic of songwriting
They are late to the game. Microsoft's Songsmith has been writing me hits for years...
Yes, and we should ALL get a PONY.
Apparently you have never heard of contracts, lawyers, incompatible tech, and competition. Other than that the ALL IN ONE PLACE plan sounds great.
Well I am a little over 50 years old, and a straight, white dude. And yeah 40 years ago we had freedom, for people like me. If you were a person of color, a woman, or didn't adhere to traditional sexual norms you were not nearly as free. The gains in individual freedom and equality, and a growing awareness of our need to be better stewards of our home planet are good things. So what is the problem? What have we even traded away for those? Any solid examples?
Could you be more specific? When did we have the freedom you are referring to? And when did that period end?
There is absolutely no possibility of anything like you are suggesting happening. Blender is open source and GPL so in no danger of being taken over. No, this is a way for Apple to make sure their hardware is supported by a graphics app that makes for great demos.
Now that you mention what a perfect demo in a keynote. Instead off the old Photoshop tests (that promote a competitor), show off how great your Apple hardware by building your own metal support into Blender. Benchmarks will seem like honest comparisons, and the 3D aspect makes for great visuals in a keynote. On top of it all Apple is supporting my favorite open source project. So yay and wow.
Fuck you, I said no such thing asshole. You were the one who belittled my experience. I was simply standing up for myself. So again, go fuck yourself and your condescending attitude.
Go fuck yourself. I absolutely recognize the responsibility to society. I was calling out someone who was using their fucking girlfriend's abuse as a shield for his fucking opinion. They don't get to do that. It had nothing to do with the topic of whether Apple's policy is right or wrong. It had to do with the grossness of saying "my girlfriend was raped so this opinion has more weight". Fucking disgusting approach that apparently you are ok with,
For the record I have grown way beyond the child I was when raped. People like you have no fucking clue what that is like, so fuck you and fuck your condescending bullshit
Your only proposed solution is what, therapy? For who? The victims? Also Supreme Court ruling does not mean something is in the Constitution. It means that is how they interpret it.
The reason you want to stop is you like to sprout platitudes and absolutes without considering other perspectives or defending the obvious flaws in your logic.
