I was today years old when I learned places like TheVerge are filled with idiots who keep work on USB media, keep no backups, and act like it's not their fault when something fails.

They also think it’s newsworthy when they experience one hardware failure. How nice to have a platform to shout your own personal grievances from.

iVerge has been on the decline for nearly a decade now.

I'm surprised anyone takes them seriously at this point.
