is it still owned by tencent?

why not have a single global timezone and people change their local numbers.

e.g. if you life in hawaii you stand up at 11pm and if people in russia work until 8am.

[nitpick] could have written a black “シ” in front of the “sh” to keep consistency with the other katakana. Also it looks like a grinning smiley, which is also nice.

Heinlein himself was libertarian

so why not copy them?

oh, I totally agree with you.

In fact standards are made to be copied. That’s like the entire point of them.

Most Adobe tools don’t have any good free alternatives even for home use.

inkscape is on a level with illustrator (maybe even better)

for drawing: try krita

if you want to pay money (much much less than for adobe): Affinity is on a level with fotoshop

if you just want to make a simple program. It still needs to run in kubernetes.

“hello OPS-team. Here is my simple program. Have fun running it on your kubernetes”

fucking Heritage Foundation, wow.

At this point they are just evil for the sake of being evil.
