It reminds me of how Weird Al’s wonderful movie UHF didn’t do great in theaters, being released in the summer of 1989. That meant it was competing against the following blockbusters:
Sorry I want a well-managed UNIX system with a nice GUI
Does OSX still have that bug where if you merge two folders of the same name it deletes everything in one of them?

At least call it Rexit, damn
American Kit Kats are made by the Hershey company and no money goes to Nestlé.
Explanation:
Kit Kat used to be a Rowntree’s product, and Hershey bought the right to make the candy in the U.S. in perpetuity back in 1970. When Nestlé bought Rowtree’s, they had to abide by the contract to license out the Kit Kat for no royalties, because the only condition of the agreement is that Hershey loses the license if the company ever gets sold. And since selling the Kit Kat bar is so valuable, buying Hershey for what it’s currently worth would mean instantly losing a large amount of Hershey’s value, so even when they’ve tried to find a buyer, nobody will buy the company—even Nestlé refused to buy Hershey in 2002.

If you look up, you’ll be able to see my point. You might need binoculars.
I’m bothered by the fact that you made a statement that’s not internally consistent and contradicts itself. Like whatever you like, but if you’re going to cite a reason, be accurate. Don’t be so dense.
His exact words:
Telemetry is important for desktop developers, you can negate it but it’s a fact
I’m going to assume you know what the subject and object of that sentence are. Here’s the thing about how language works on my planet: through the magic of a radical new concept called “context”, we can accurately discern both meaning and normative statements from what people say and how they phrase it. In other words, “It’s a fact that telemetry is important for desktop developers” is an ostensibly descriptive statement that also creates a normative statement in the same way that standing in the sun casts a shadow: it has to, it isn’t optional. It’s “Desktop developers who don’t use telemetry are ignoring something that it’s factual to say is important they not ignore”. Please tell me you get it now, and that you don’t need the rest spoonfed to you.
Is that really a fact? (No.) Wow, it’s crazy how every desktop program that doesn’t use telemetry isn’t any good, according to you.
No dude this definitely happened, there’s no way it isn’t 100% true
