That’s fair, thanks for expanding on the criteria! Serif is indeed still located in the UK, I had a look before commenting. The address of the company headquarters matters, for sure.

for example publicly traded companies are usually owned by several investors and might even be hold in majority by foreign investors - but the company itself has to follow regional laws which is what we focus on.

Absolutely. Ubisoft is a great example of that. Last time I checked, Tencent owns a bunch of shares there - not enough for a majority, yet it’s still a concern for the future.

The site is bookmarked and I’m looking forward to watching it develop!

Canva (an Australian company) bought Serif not long ago, so Affinity Photo is technically Australian software now. Might want to update that list ^^

And their refusal to listen to what the fans actually want.

And frivolous patent lawsuits on mechanics that they don’t use themselves. Or patents they made after said prior art came out.

And sending their lawyers after streamers and content creators.

And killing fan games that improve on their failures.

And artificial digital scarcity.

Their arrogance will be their downfall.

That’s a fair point. Season 9 was certainly a vibe I can’t quite find the words for.

Jerry purposely drugging his girlfriend so he could play with her toys was pretty shitty AND horrible.

No matter what you do, crying is inevitable.

The hundred different anime girl communities I had to block though.

I block the users as well since they’re likely to post in yet another new community not in my block list.

If voyager had regex filters for every block category it would make the Lemmy experience even better.

You mentioned a buzzing in another reply. That sounds like a grounding issue to me. Any chance you blew something under the board that is causing a short? At this point it would be wise to do a full tear down.

I'm almost at my train stop, so one final question before disappearing for the day: when resocketing the CPU did you put it in correctly and was there damage when you removed it initially?

Is the power switch on the PSU flipped on? Are the front panel wires seated in the right places on the motherboard?

Those are the two that get me when reassembling. I used to have an asrock 320m that had absolutely no grip on the front panel wires and it was easy to unseat one when blowing air into the case.

Those are TestFlight notifications you're getting. If you don't want them, quit testing and grab it off the App Store instead.

Archive is on American soil. They got sued for lending ebooks during the pandemic and lost, so they are not a safe bet. Archive elsewhere. Anywhere else.
