You pay it by buying new hardware.

My 2013 macbook pro with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD has been deprecated by apple so the latest OS it gets is Big Sur, it has now been barred from signing updates (since they require the latest XCode which I cannot get with Big Sur) so its only viable life is via Linux from now on.

I have had to buy a Mac Mini with 8 GB of RAM and a 250 GB SSD to be able to upload updates for my iOS apps.

I mean I can afford it, but yeah, we are paying for OS updates dude.

That's the reason they also updated their EULAs to set a minimum renting period of 24hs for providers like Amazon and MacStadium. They want you buying hardware, they don't want to leave any easy way out.

People always forget about the rules of the internet.

Rule 29: On the internet men are men, women are also men, and kids are undercover FBI agents.

Rule 30: Girls do not exist on the internet

It seems funny at first, but knowing they don't hate a media twisted version of you, but the real thing, is more depressing than funny.

I'm a patient gamer so I don't normally preorder, but I made an exception with CyberPunk as a tribute for paying $5 for Witcher 3 (which was my first game of the series, I went in blind and I couldn't believe how good it was).

I wasn't even mad with the shitshow but I decided wasn't going to play the game in that state.

Fast forward a few years, the game runs almost 3 times as fast (went from 25 to 70 fps on my computer) and they fixed a lot of problems people were complaining about for the DLC release. Now it's ripe.

Patient games keep being right

the error is buying a game from a series with 11 games in development

they are going to run out of words in the dictionary to name these fucking games, they will start using words in a different language for the codenames.

My sister's dog, a cross-breed even tinier than a chihuahua, is absolutely terrified of me when I travel to visit them.

I'm a dog person but I cannot get 100 ft close to this thing.

The exception, of course, is when I kiss the nephews goodbye. She bites my ankles and shoes madly, she won't have none of it.

philosophers are still coasting on the fact that they were mixed in with the real sciences in the past.

they are nothing but a bunch of glorified poets. you can get the same level of authority in the lyrics of any god damn song.
