It was pointed out that it's been free since 2009, through SkyDrive, now OneDrive. This is just a new cover page/interface to the apps.

This is a good attitude. All of us have failings. Most of us fail at being geniuses. Theo fails at being diplomatic.

A very rational decision. Nobody else will sell you a comparable product for that price. Is there even a comparable product?

We need PR people to devote their time and expertise to open source projects, just as developers do.

We wouldn't even need a very good one. I bet some kid still in school, studying PR, would do a better job than Theo.

It's game theory.

All three options exist, but the maintainers pretending that option b doesn't exist at this point in time increases the probability that option c will succeed.

If the pretense doesn't work, be very much assured that they will go with option b.

A softmodded Wii will easily do this, and you can get them secondhand for cheap these days.

The truth is cruel to people who are wrong on the side of the argument, because they get their feelings hurt. Cruelty says nothing about the validity of an argument. This is a complete waste of time.

I appreciate your concern, but these people are not capable of bullying me. They cannot get to me. I know their mentality and their tactics inside and out.

It's easier to run any system improperly than properly. This is the case for all systems. It's not unique to the human body, and it's not unique to diet and exercise.

I value my right to free speech at least as highly as I value my time, possibly more.

He most certainly did not do this because he wanted to be nice. It was a carefully calculated PR stunt.

Your reality check is much appreciated.

You're most certainly not paranoid. Three-letter agencies have malware in the wild that can operate a webcam without turning on a light. It's probably well-targeted at specific people, but you can't know whether you're a target (until it's too late, anyway).

It's all very cyberpunk, building hardware designed to enable freedom for a small resistance force, salvaged from megacorporation scraps.

I imagine RMS using one while wearing a leather trenchcoat and mirror shades.

Please explain how it does.

It's not the job of your interlocutor to make your argument for you. If you can't make your own argument, you don't have an argument.

Yes. This is generally known. Few people will call a stick-thin figure with a bloated stomach fat, though.

Please go back to SomethingAwful. Your sexism and hate speech on this website is complete shit.

It cites its source. It's a link. Try clicking on it.

What's immature about calling out lies and hate speech?

Don't believe this poster. She's garbage designed to pander to man-hating female supremacists - a group that the person I just replied to has no problem flaunting her affiliation with.

It's US Justice Department figures.

The former cites its source, and the latter is US Justice Department figures.

You're a typical female supremacist. You try to ban what you can't shout down. You're sickening.

pyrocat told lies.

She stated in several places a 1-in-6 statistic for female sexual harassment, which is a lie.

She also stated in several places that females are the victims of rape more often, which is again a lie.

I've made these corrections at several location throughout the thread, wherever I could catch her doing it. It's very unlikely for you to not have seen them.

I can only conclude that your mobbing campaign against me is knowingly malicious, and that you are in cahoots with pyrocat, if not the same person.

I like to summarize all that with: No fat Somalians.

People tend not to argue.

Social justice is a cult. It's dogmatic, it's detached from reality, and it's insane. I hate all cults equally.

I've pointed out numerous lies being perpetrated by your cohorts (or, more likely, sockpuppets) in this thread.

You won't get anywhere with shit. Not here. You need to just go.

It does, in fact, have to do with your claim that harassment happens to women more often. That can't be the case if men outnumber women by a large factor, which is the case in hardcore gaming.

I wish we could bottle perspective and force these social justice fucks to gulp it down. They need it badly.

Thanks for the contribution of common sense this thread sorely needed.

Stop trying to derail. Stop lying. Stop using hate speech.

I have a feeling that this thread was started by (and is being steered by) a couple of social justice warriors, using a combination of their typical lies, guilt-tripping tactics, and anti-male sexism to socially engineer certain opinions.

It's sad that they thought it would work.

How can there be more online harassment against women when most hardcore gamers are men? You're full of shit.
