why do people support this company still? sorry to be that guy, but i will never use a product from them after the jwz fiasco. and no, new leadership doesn't make up for decades of behavior.

I know who jwz is, but what is the "jwz fiasco"? That Microsoft built a better browser than him?

It is really too bad that we can't have things like this in our society. That looks like it would have been a very healthy way to deal with stress and frustration, especially in an otherwise restrained environment like work.

Thank you for that bit of history.

It's not clear if it's the intended result, but that link (for me, and quite unexpectedly) redirects to an Imgur picture of a testicle in a teacup, which is a little funny but which one might not intend to display.

It seems to be a redirect based on the referring URL. Copy and paste it to get to the actual site
