Two adults way too interested in what a young man is doing with his genitals.

The thing about this shit is...
Microsoft, like Google, is now a user-data driven company and they have already made loss/profit ratio analysis on this long before they released the price increase. They're absolutely banking on people cancelling but making up the difference and then some from the people who stay.
For a thought experiment let's consider how many subscribers they were reported to have in Feburary: 34 million. Let's assume that everyone is paying for the highest tier to make the math easier. So current income would be 34 million user x $20 a month and thats $680 million a month. New income of 34 million users x $30 a month is $1.02 billion. The difference is $340 million a month. Let's divide that by $30 a month. That gets us about 11,333,333 users. So they can hemorrhage over 11 million users and still break even. To make sure, let's subtract 11 million users. That gives us 23 million users. 23 million users x $30 a month is $690 million a month, a cool $10 million a month above current profits.
For final context, 11 million users is roughly 32% of their entire subscriber count. They can afford to lose a third of the people subscribing and still make money.
The math doesn't bode well for us who vote with our wallets.
Look I know Bandcamp got a bad rap for being bought and sold a few times but they still have Bandcamp Fridays and that coupled with my own streaming server at home seems like the ticket to me.
The good old Imperial Boomerang.
I remember when Anduril dropped their first flashy video for their first drone. A friend of mine was working for a company doing online ad-work for Anduril and they showed the video to him and his coworkers. He made the joke "at least we know what the drones that will be chasing us down in a few years will look like" which went down like a brick with his coworkers and boss. I of course agreed with his assessment when he related the story to me.
I mean cartoon physics are totally in play here and this guy ain't got no fuckin arms his hands are just hanging in space so it seems reasonable (all things considered) that his reach is unreal.
Nope, actually I've been very successful at keeping my data intact. I have files going all the way back to my first desktop PC that I got when graduating high school. The oldest files I have are dated early 2000.
I mean, I had completely forgotten about it entirely until you shared it and then the memory just blasted into my mind.
Immich is a more touchy beast because it includes a mobile app and the mobile app and the docker container need to generally be either the same version, or within a few versions of one another. There was a while where I forgot to update the server for a while and the mobile app kept being updated on my phone and stopped backing up photos because it could no longer communicate with the server.
I don't expose services to the outside world either, but I still enjoy keeping things up to date. Gives me something to do.
I remember this image too it's so fucking badass.
In fact, like I did with the UNIX is Magic poster, I may take this image and get it printed up on a nice large, glossy poster and mount it because fuck I have missed this. Thank you for sharing.
Run is definitely Ghostface & Jadakiss. It's got a killer remix by Ratatat which is my favorite version. It's also got one of my favorite lyrics of all time.
I can't go to jail my mother cookin' chicken for dinner! Damn!
I don't because I did a siterip in like 2006-2007ish. I never lost that video.

This is my kind of fan fiction yowza. I need... So much more of this. I'd especially love to see Captian Haddock initially confused and stressed but soon embracing it and it changes nothing in their relationship... Except that Haddock even more erroneously thinks he is some kind of father figure than usual.
