  • To Hori, a company that makes fairly decent third-party controllers. They likely had a reasonable expectation that the product wouldn't be shit.

    It disgusts me to defend Nintendo in anything but this just isn't their fault.

  • Censorship is bad, but Facebook and X's entire business models revolve around spreading content that is at once false and inflammatory, either just to create engagement or for more malicious purposes, and they reach a huge portion of the population directly, including children, teenagers, the mentally ill and other vulnerable populations. This requires a new understanding of accountability for spreading information.

    I wouldn't agree that it makes sense to hold a Mastodon instance responsible for what its users post, because they don't have a financial incentive or the ability to promote misinformation at a massive scale. Twitter does. As Aristotle said, we must treat equals equally, and treat the unequal unequally according to the form and extent of their inequality.

  • The sea is not "a salt brine in itself". You need a much higher salt concentration to pickle anything than what you find at any point in the ocean. Enough to prevent microbial life forms from surviving and consuming whatever it is you're trying to pickle, which is why it doesn't rot while pickling.

  • You talk as though closed-source developers reviewed all the upstream code. The exact same problem exists with closed-source, except there isn't even the possibility of reviewing all the code if you want to. At worst, the lack of review in FOSS projects is on par with closed-source projects. At best, it's a much smaller problem .

  • Interest is an increase in price*. Lower interest isn't a discount, it's a smaller increase. Calling it a discount is like punching you instead of stabbing you and calling it nonviolence.

    *In exchange for better payment conditions, but that's not relevant to the point.
