That’s not what this article says. Earliest application was March 5, 2024.

Palworld was released on Jan 18th, 2024, a month and a half beforehand.

Basically, he’s a CEO and therefore thinks every dollar on earth is his by right. I think the best summary is that he’s using his competing positions at the non-profit foundation to benefit his for-profit company.

Tl;Dr is that matt mullenweg saw that other people were making money from free open source software, and his capitalism boner is trying to fuck everyone over.

He has control over both WPEngines competition and the non-profit Foundation, and is using his Foundation position to try extort his for-profit company’s competition. Typical CEO behaviour.

This whole drama makes me wonder if it’s only a matter of time till I have to migrate my company away from WordPress.

Man, fuck matt mullenweg

Am I the only one who feels like this is an AI generated article incorrectly summarizing the actual info?

If only she were the current sitting vice president of the United states of America, I.e. was in a position of power where she and the other members of the executive branch could take action as well as “striking a tough tone”.

Actions, as always, speak louder than words.

Using performance enhancing drugs can result in a lifetime ban from the Olympics, with Wikipedia saying it’s an “integrity” issue. Aren’t we glad that raping a literal child isn’t an integrity issue?

The news where I live often calls Olympic winners “sports heroes”, I think this person should never be allowed anywhere near an event that might make people label them a hero.

I was such a fan of the original RTW. It was such a shame how bad the launch of II was, and to this day I’ve never played it. By the time it was fixed, there were other games out that were never broken to begin with.

In my country we’ve had these electronic labels for many years, using them was part of my first real job a decade ago. And here they definitely can be updated centrally, and in near real time.

Wangs of Witchers. Gotta keep the alliteration.

1. Mayor says the city will stop using tech by the end of 2024.

2. Tech is still operational in April 2024 (8 months before the end of 2024).

3. Breathless expose article showing that the tech is still in use.

4. Profit???

He says “action nirvana” but I think he means “pay to win, $ucker”

So, a corporation fucked a guy over, and when he retaliated using the same method they fucked him over with, he gets punished by the law while nothing happens to them?

Not saying he was right to do what he did but I understand why he’d feel aggrieved by them. And fuck the “rule of law” that so blatantly supports corporations over people.

For anyone wondering, yes the plane is a Boeing 787-9…

If one owned a real switch would that alter any of the steps? Like, I imagine whatever keys you need would be on it?

For the record I know nothing and am just guesstimating based on 90’s PS1 emulation.

Just when I thought they couldn’t shit on DnD worse than they already have 😭😭😭

This behaviour is why I roll my eyes when the edge fanbois are all like “iTs AlL cHrOmE aNyWaY”.

Fuck any company that uses their power to try trick people into using their software, yes including google.

Link gives me a 404 error, am I the only one?

Only tangentially related, but I just realised that now when I read “X got death threats”, the assumption I jump to is that X is a terrible person/company trying to deflect from their terrible decisions/actions.

Not seemingly the case here, but Im left pondering how often this claim has been misused as an easy cop-out. WoTC, <insert politician here>, etc.

More like, OpenAI has said “so what if we were speeding, everyone does it” (did that work last time you got a ticket?)

Relevant exerpt from the article: “The company recently made a similar argument to the UK House of Lords, claiming no AI system like ChatGPT can be built without access to copyrighted content.”
