I think it could make sense if you remove the first day releases.. And i say this as a game pass subscriber..
There is already a delay between console and pc releases.. add a second delay after pc release to include in game pass..
People that really want to play the game will buy it either on console or on pc to play it early.. People that would not buy it could pay for game pass to get it later...
Well, i can claim i am the king of England and it wont make it any more true then he saying he was censored..
He sent a ton of merge requests with crap code without doing any basic testing that broke a bunch of stuff without doing any meaningful work, there was no new features, no bugs fixed, no nothing, he was only changing code style and rearranging stuff without really any basic understanding on why things are the way they are..
the people that need to review his garbage untested MR warned him multiple times and eventually got fed up..
This guy is all bark and no bite.. i doubt anything will come out of this and it is very unlikely that any serious distro will ever package his shit X11 if it ever work..
this guy have a more technical review of his code:
I don't know how much research the author/publisher of the article did. They claim on their site that "Linuxiac is an independent media platform that publishes the latest news from the Linux world and open-source software. Founded by Bobby Borisov and launched in May 2020, it has quickly become a trusted resource for thousands of users daily, providing insights into all things Linux & open source."
yeah.. the problem is that twitter has as much censorship as before, might even have more..
but now the reason for censorship decision are about what is best for elon..
if it benefit him he will allow censorship to happen, if it benefits him he will censor you himself.. on the other hand, if it benefits him he will fight against censorship..
and he is doing all of that right now, all at the same time..
if he has nothing to gain then you will be censored and will not hear a pip from him.. if you cross him he will get you banned like he did to the cnn and nyt journalists that criticized him or the account that posted his plane location (that is public information and easily obtained)..
the only reason you think there is less censorship is because he allowed the far-right back and he only did it because he think it will benefit him.. but he also banned a bunch of people he did not like on the other side to compensate..
> the problem is that twitter has as much censorship as before, might even have more
Would be a stronger claim if it were accompanied by any evidence. Say, can you name five most prominent political figures booted from or silenced by X recently for their political speech? I would have no trouble naming many examples from pre-Musk times.
> he only did it because he think it will benefit him
That would be in now way different from what facebook, google and other are doing, but again, before discussing that, would be nice to know what we're discussing - specifically.
> but he also banned a bunch of people he did not like on the other side to compensate
expect Elon has no problem censoring speech he does not like.. And he has no problem supporting censorship in places he has nothing to gain..
on one side you have him criticizing the current left wing government and the country supreme court because "freedom of speech" in brazil, while he is loosing the negotiation to buy one of the largest lithium mining company in the region to china's BYD and having a right wing government instead would benefit him, so causing political turmoil is in his best interest..
while at the other end you have india that has made more requests to take down content then brasil and is heavily censoring people in twitter, but since they have a right wing government that Elon have good relation with you do not hear a pip from him about censorship in india..
Elon crusade is not about freedom of speech, it is about what is best for Elon..
if you say something he does not like, you will get banned, like already happened with several journalists that criticized him and the guy the posted his plane location..
And they just release iOS 16.7.8 last month, that was the 4th update this year for iOS 16, that goes back until the iPhone 8 from 2017.
They also released iOS 15.8.2 this last march, this one goes back to the iPhone 6 from 2015, a device that is 9 year old and still getting security updates.
So while they are only making a commitment for 5 years, in practice they are doing, and have usually done, for much longer then that.
