dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Unity is a game engine that, for a long time, said "just pay us a monlthy fee to develop using our engine and we're square." then because EULAs and Terms of Service are slippery little bastards that are contracts but only benefit the owner they changed that to "Actually you're going to have to pay us a fee every time someone installs your game lol get rekt".

Lots of people are being shocked-pikachu about this, but, like, Marx did not fail to consider, and in Capitalism if you don't have a contract you have nothing. Signing a "contract" where one side can alter the terms to whatever they want seems... a bit naive but what you can you do?

That is reassuring to hear.
