Comment Re:CEOs gonna CEO (Score 1) 30

Keep in mind that shortly after that all happened, we discovered these assholes were short-selling their own stock while purposefully trying to drive their own company out of business for a quicker short-term cash-out. They don't give a fuck what those investors (mostly kids who were their primary customers, spending a few dollars of allowance money naively thinking they'd be lauded as heroes by the company) think and in fact they resent them. I, for one, hope this fucker just loses interest and sells the company at a loss to someone who gives a shit about the economy.

Now you're anthropomorphising a piece of software while trying to mischaracterize my argument as being against the software rather than the company of the same name that created said software; this is both stupid and dishonest, which is about what I've come to expect from you AI fanatics.

Oh no! Your shitty attempt to muddle the definition of the relevant list of participants has completely derailed the moral compass of the entire discussion! I guess now we'll all have to just let this rampant automated theft and plagiarism continue unabated! Oh well! /sarcasm

Midjourney, the ones being sued currently, are clearly the ones who should pay, and you're a shitty person for even making this argument.

Additionally, in the odd case where DPI auto-detect fails catastrophically in Xorg, you can still just manually specify it and then everything works correctly again. The fact that large swathes of users who don't know this are demanding Xorg be completely discarded over it says everything about them.

The worst part about it is, by the time it's clear to everyone there is a problem, the people left will be too stupid to figure out what that problem actually is, let alone how to fix it. It will be clear that there's massive population decline and both the economy and natural environment are non-functioning, but most of them will barely be able to spell or do basic arithmetic without the help of the massive computer cluster that's eating everything.

There's nothing wrong with PHP that fundamental competence can't fix. The primary issue is, it's too easy to learn to use without becoming fundamentally competent, so it attracts a lot of lazy, low-effort workers and low-quality projects. That's not really PHP's fault, and changing languages to something else is no sort of magic fix for that either. Also, keep in mind this is the same basic justification that's being used to promote Rust, which in the long run will more or less generate the same results.
