How efficient is it to antagonize people that are actively promoting your own content for free on other platforms? Does this actually work for Nintendo?
Win11: less functionality, more ads
And what’s with the weasel words like “recommended”? Just call them “sponsored” or “ads”, like they really are.

Good, the use of single use plastic packaging is absolutely ridiculous: single candies wrapped in plastic, 3 chips wrapped in a smaller plastic bag. Just paying attention highlights how wasteful a lot of it is.
Exactly, this is a good analogy. I actually got the feedback that I was technically qualified and most of the other feedback was positive.
You would expect the candidate to spend 60€ to try out a niche product? If I were in the position I would definitely expect them to research the product and understand how it works (I did), but not to spend that kind of money to use it.
I mean if it was after I started the job that would make sense. You have to know the product you’re working on.
But it seems like a power asymmetry that they have dedicated 1 hour of their time to the interview and I am expected to spend money and more research time, in addition to all the usual interview preparation.
I’ve updated the description to mention that this is definitely not a scam, more like weird and unreasonable behavior.
I did one better. I installed Linux
While I appreciate the funny critique of Varoufakis, this is the same point that another Jacobin author makes against the idea of techno-feudalism.

Wow, Microsoft are always so innovative! I never thought that the Win11 taskbar could get any shittier, but somehow they managed it. It’s great to see those thousands of engineers being put to good use.
Can’t we just force heavy taxation for the amount of plastics in products? That would force producers to look at alternatives to plastic for packaging.
I am always in shock when I buy some product and it has layers and layers of thick plastic to give the impression of some premium product. And sometimes I don’t even have an alternative product to buy to avoid it since I only have 2 supermarkets in my area.
I’ve only been playing games on Linux for the past year and it’s been a pretty smooth experience. Go for it!
