Molyneux was/is such a massive bullshit artist, that he would even make promises in front of crowds that the game devs had never even heard before. He just let his imagination and mouth run wild.
Murray deserves more respect than Molyneux. Where Molyneux was off to the next shiny idea after underwhelming is fans once again, Murray is still working hard on getting NMS to where they promised it would be at launch. Atlas Rises patch brought a lot of much needed content and I'm really looking forward to their latest anounced update.
Peter's problem was that he didn't just release the game without all the promised features, he wouldn't even hang around to fix the bugs.
Exactly. Until we pay rent, wages & stock with Bitcoin, it's essentially just digital gold bullion.
You'd be an idiot to pay for any service with Bitcoin. A million dollar pizza makes for a great news story, but it would suck knowing that you effectively let go of millions of dollars just to buy a pizza.
Bitcoin holders are disincentivized from spending it.
Installing Linux is takes no more time is in anyway more complicated than installing Windows. Even installing Ubuntu on my laptop was a simple affair (including having the wifi work right away, in the installer).
What you've said may have been true several years ago, but it isn't anymore.
Long time BackBlaze user & fan here. Currently backing up three computers. Love your service.
However, for my main dev computer, I would totally pay another $5USD to replicate it to another location. I don't think that needs to complicate the pricing that much. You're essentially just paying for another backup, except it's the same computer in a different location.
I don't think you understand what the author saying. The author is saying that the new keyboards are terrible, and when he realised why he thinks they're terrible he went out and bought a mech keyboard.
He's sad that Apple are choosing this new keyboard technology for the MBP range, and from what I gather, he won't be purchasing a new Macbook Pro.
He's not. The author is comparing the new MBP keyboard to the old one. The fact that he finds these keyboards so terrible meant that he realised how much he'd love a mechanical keyboard.
It also means that he won't be buying a new Macbook Pro.
Yeah, but the fact that the new Macbook Pros use the same terrible keyboard as the Macbook, means that this guy is not going to buy one for his next computer.
> Keyboard enthusiasts should be singing Apple's praises right now.
Are you serious? These keyboards are TERRIBLE. What exactly have they put on the agenda? How to replace pretty good laptop keyboards with crappy ones?
Huge misfire by Apple. Jony Ive will run that company into the ground in a nice, thin, aluminium coffin.
I've always kinda hated "Freakonomics" - albeit irrationally. It just never felt like the author truly understood the difference between correlation & causation.
