I didn't know that Affinity products can possibily cause Death?? How's that possible?


Recommended Posts

In the license agreement:

"WARRANTIES AND LIMITS OF LIABILITY

20. NOTHING IN THIS LICENCE SHALL OPERATE TO EXCLUDE OR LIMIT EITHER PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR: a. DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY ITS NEGLIGENCE; "

^ They also misspelled license in the agreement.

I'm installing trial version of Publisher while I wait for Friday to buy product.

The agreement is in UK English, where that is a correct spelling.

Regarding death: Suppose you prepared a set of instructions using Publisher, and printed them or exported as a PDF, and for some reason it dropped the statement "but before you push that button, make sure to put on your hard hat".  And then someone read the instructions, and pushed the button without wearing their hard hat, and died.

Based on some other posts in this forum, it seems like a person who suddenly realized that we still lack support for right-to-left writing, or new font formats, or DDS files might have a massive rage stroke and drop dead. I imagine for every angry post we see about a missing feature there may be a dozen more bodies in office chairs, their faces frozen in a terminal snarl. 

Be careful, folks. Software kills.
