There is always something you can do about it. Always.

According to Microsoft whistleblower Andrew Harris, Microsoft spent years ignoring a vulnerability while he proposed fixes to the “security nightmare.” Instead, Microsoft feared it might lose its government contract by warning about the bug and allegedly downplayed the problem

This says everything about this shitty company. Worst of the worst. Because that’s how they make 90% of their cash. By exploiting licensing deals and siphoning data to sell to whomever because they do not care who it is so long as they bid the highest.

It’s amazing no one has tried to break up their control over PCs. Make this world make sense.

I’ve just started hiding penises in my work. Your move AI.

Yeah thank the heavens the deal was squashed. It was a bold move even for Adobe.

Building a NAS in this day and age is trivial. Hard drive space is cheaper and far more economical than paying $20 a month for a service. The way prices are going it’s going to soon hit parity with car payments.

I had an old PC from 2012 with an i3 dual core in it. Ran a headless Linux server. Raided the 2 3TB drives. Done. It was replaced by a 4 TB SSD and since those have nowhere near the failure rates of HDDs, one and one. It servers files off my main computer which is a beefy Mac.

Enabled file sharing. Opened the port on my firewall. Done. It’s one of the easiest services to offload to a homebuilt rig.

Not feasible in a work environment. Photopea works just fine if you simply need CS6 level Ps. Just need a browser.

They are considered malware at this point. The telemetry they collect the fact that your machine has to run a slew of daemons and that they are binding it all behind your mandatory Adobe account that has all your financial details, kinda shows how users rights are in the dark ages digitally speaking.

Ya no argument there. Adobe is way out of bounds. We have largely moved to Figma but that was like pulling teeth as every was using Ps and Ai when I joined. Ai for wireframes had me tossing at night not gonna lie!

The PSDs it spits out lose a lot of editing capabilities and have limited functionality. TIFF is destructive our clients would shit if we gave them tiffs.

Hi, please to meet you. Can I get you anything, coffee, danish? No? Ok, please have a seat. Let me just say, based on your resume, you seem very qualified for the position. So let’s just get the standard questions out of the way. As an Optimus humanoid, what kind of value do you see bringing our company?

You also shouldn’t use them as a safe way to store things. They routinely delete shit or bake your data and point to their EULA like sorry buddy, no guarantees. Your stuff is not safe there at all.

Far better to store locally and just create a way to share it or access it from your home network.

Lemme guess, he doesn’t agree with Adobe like the rest of the internet?

Yeah he got so much publicity with his little NY shop hating on Apple. Which is amusing because those people Apple turned away were what made him. Not citing with Apple but I’ve never trusted this dude. Most of his “pioneering” in freedoms and rights all serve his own interests and he’s always grandstanding to bolster his popularity.

He also repeats himself a lot. A lot. Keeps repeating himself which is why his videos are 2h. Because he just keeps repeating himself. A lot.

No. They check validation constantly with their daemon and while you can technically loop it back using hacks, no studio is doing that.

And your clients are ok getting these files? Speaking for the studios I’ve worked out, our clients wouldn’t stick around if we didn’t give them industry standard files (psds, etc.).

What upsets me the most is everyone let me build a monopoly that has been strangleholding the design industry for like 2 decades.

Even Denmark couldn’t handle the heat! Can you?!

I honestly never thought I’d see this day. It’s like announcing Linux just went closed source!

They run by the same people bro. Please please please tell me you are trolling right now. Please. They all answer to the CEO of Sony in Japan. I can’t even right now with this stupid. Sony is trash. Every part of the world. Every product and service.

You honestly sound like Sony lawyers in the case against GeoHot. They literally tried the same shit in court lol: https://www.vg247.com/sony-accused-of-material-misrepresentation-in-geohot-case
