Hey, there's no need for that. Be nice.

Sometimes being rough is the only way that causes some people to think deeper. It's actually in good faith, but yeah I get your point.
I'm just going over a bit of a busy and rough times myself here, major PC maintenance, house cleanup and repair, reinstalling OS and moving all my games, and managing TBs of data on new HDDs, it's exhausting.

In general, we should be discussing what's in it for us, not what's in it for the companies, there's this phenomenon in the gaming/tech world of cheerleading for companies as if it's a football game and companies are like football clubs, sports being one of the biggest scams put on the humanity ever, it doesn't matter which club wins, the stadium/organizers always win and for the people it's a net loss, you're robbed from your time, money, sanity to cheer and waste energy on an irrelevant ball bouncing on an irrelevant grass while the conquerors take over your countries and empose their own laws.

Ok, but corporations need a lot of money to pay for R&D. How the hell should we place greed in this context and in relation with hightech corporations?

I suppose I can partially apologize for some of my recent short temper, because it does come from the things over at my end, I found my self coming here to dump frustrations a bit, not what we should be doing and not what I should be doing on my home tech forum.

What about all the dividends that investors get, that money goes straight to their expensive trips to luxury places IMO.
