Only worse is that people just roll with it instead of deciding to say "FTS, I'm gonna shift gears!"...

Because "#EscalatingCommitment" exists I guess...

The number of network connections required to @Microsoft and @Skype servers, to get Word just to start, is now 31. You can no longer say "I don´t want to send diagnostic data", then Word just quits silently. (Please spare me the Open/LibreOffice gospel, it does not apply here.)

Bcuz they all are having #EscalatingCommitment to #Windows and thus show #CognitiveDissonance because admitting failure is not something they do voluntarily unless it's a #NonApology aka. #DamageControl statement.

The #SteamDeck works because #Valve really took their time to make #Steam, #Steamworks and the #SteamRuntime for #Linux just function out-of-the box, knowing that anything worse than the #NintendoSwitch would fail harder than the #PSvita!

@CisopSixpence noone is stuck with #Twitter - it's just #EscalatingCommitment and nothing else!!
@asei_sano @aruiz all I see is #EscalatingCommitment to a #BiggerFoolsScam amid the realization that one has been the #dump and not the #pump of it...

@[email protected] @[email protected] Is Bitcoin perfect? No. Was email in 1972 perfect? No. Bitcoin is the first and most used public blockchain to send value trustless peer-to-peer. And Lightning is beta. Everyone knows. But can you use it? Yes. Can you whirlpool your non-kyc coin for more privacy? Yes.

@rodhilton I hate #EscalatingCommitment to overpriced #CommercialReasEstate (#leases)...

It's the reason why the entire #Linux team of a former employer quit - including myself...

#Commuting is #UnpaidLaboir and considering that #CovidIsNotOver I think it's criminally neglective to cram people into poorly ventilated & unfiltered #cubicles...

@SusanPotter Seriously, WTF?

Last time a fmr. employer of mine flexed their #EscalatingCommitment to an overpriced office space, 75% of the #Linux team (including myself) left.

Pretty shure with your skillset recruiters at #HAYS & #roberthalf want to instantly offer you an exclusivity deal...

Seriously, someone needs to work on their #EscalatingCommitment to a #Corporation that doesn't even pay them minimum wage...

#Signal is not your friend nor a solution to #SurveillanceCapitalism, because they too need to make ends meet!

@NerdShinobi @DetritusBooks @CrimethInc that's because they are invested in the #StatusQuo - whether that's by #greed & #corruption or #EscalatingCommitment is irrelevant for the result...
