Oh, yes. I am sure the original point of making this information available in the first place is following some legislation. It’s just interesting how suddenly everyone’s talking about flat butt and other tidbits, (of course they are, it’s funny) so I wonder whether that was engineered to get this kind of response. Maybe I’m just too cynical these days.
Services other people rely on
Maybe not the best examples for the crowds around here. You might have a difficult time looking for someone who admires either of those two.
This kind of inferred information is useful for them (in some cases), of course. But I can’t help myself wondering if those more ridiculous tidbits are meant for viral marketing. They made everyone talk about Amazon (in somewhat non-negative way) again, right?
If they actually wanted to manipulate markets, they would use mainstream media.
Today I learnt doing what most of the world has been doing is “doubling my responsibilities”
Plastic bags cause problems, too. I’ve had this problem in several shops, I just don’t bother anymore.
I forgot self-checkouts don’t get queues /s
Something about MIT licensed Grindr client tickles me lol. Great job!
I assume Google (on Grindr’s instructions) will take it down eventually, but I guess you’re prepared for that by trying to put it on F-Droid
Oh you’re completely right. I misread it the first time. 🙂
Oh yes, I would imagine so. I just think that certain percentage of their potential customers will be turned away by it and so overall good chunk of the extra money they would get from the ads to balance out loss of sales would end up going to Microsoft instead.
I was just thinking about that. I can’t imagine Microsoft licencing it cheaply, so I would think other companies would be losing money over this.
If anything, Microsoft made us a favour. (As long as they won’t continue their journey becoming Disney of gaming, I guess sigh)
While I agree people should oppose this, I really don’t think the head of Microsoft gaming decision or the current Microsoft CEO would care about your letter and most likely it wouldn’t even reach them.
