But what is the word for "knowing what the user wants, blatantly ignoring it and imposing the companies will anyway"?

Yeah I’m not in favor of constructive dismissal, but maybe these layoffs are justified….

Is this why they had to raise their prices again?

He was probably making some “furtive movements” just before the incident.

When I first used the Snoopy face with 10.0 it always had a gray background. Now with 10.0.1 I get random colors. Is this new? Looks great!

Upgraded after four decades (lemmy.world)

I bought this GrenTec Coyote II skateboard back in 1977 and for whatever reason I could never bring myself to get rid of it, even after I outgrew it and stopped skateboarding. Fast forward, recently started playing with it and realized it really was too small, so I finally bought one more my size. It’s an Arbor Pilsner (technically a longboard, but it’s on the small side). Really weird to pick up a hobby decades later and still realize I can do most of what I did back then: tick-tack, crabwalk, etc. Any tips for getting back into it?
