Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Bro really tried to sell his subscribers a "50$ a year" subscription to a "wallpaper" app.

Interesting points about the "app":

the app has premium and free wallpapers
the free wallpapers are only available in sd quality and if you want hd youd have to subscribe
in order to unlock the sd quality you have to watch two 30 second ads.
theres a wallpaper called "orange" thats just the color orange

Bro if your gonna buy a wallpaper app just get Wallpaper Engine on Steam, it's like less than $5

Hey wait a minute Wallpaper Engine is just Windows Active Desktop with extra steps!

(Never forgive Microsoft for killing Active Desktop)
