Some people tell me "but Paise there's no reason to jump to Linux, you get get around this or that restriction with [third patty patch] or [registry hack]."
Yes. This is true.
But a) those hacks (like the no MS account at login) can be taken away at any time and
b) why do I have to FIGHT my OS?
Yes. This is true.

I'm coining a new word: Corpopathy - "A pathological alignment with corporate values, where institutional priorities override ethics, humanity, or individual well-being."

Canada, Japan, and the EU say,

I just want a casual, fun, mobile game that isn't designed to syphon as much money as possible out of people, or cram my life full of ads to play the next level, or recharge the doodle, or get additional currency. I'm happy to actually buy the app, but they seem... scarce.
