When you’re talking to an open source dev, just remember that they are literally giving you their time for free, and they are people who don’t like to be treated poorly.

      The nightmare just crawls out to our reality when payed software is less developed on and more buggy than free Open Source software.

        That’s because the people making it are doing it for a job rather than for the love of it. (Except me. Surely I don’t do that.)

            The funny thing is that since it’s an actual word the spell checker might not be of any use to see that it might not be the word you’re actually wanting to use. And with the amount of people using “payed” instead of “paid” the dictionaries will probably include “payed” as an alternative way to conjugate “to pay” in the currency sense.

          I sometimes feel like I am the only one with that file. Yes sir, I sometimes feel sad when a good piece of software doesn’t have a donation button or license to buy. Even if it does nothing.

          Ditched Windows long ago though.
