I wasn’t saying you can’t play them, just that you don’t own them. This is still true with DRM free games. GOG’s agreement is different to Steam’s in that you own your purchase
You don’t think you own every house with an unlocked front door, do you?
You’re correct, and this goes for ALL steam games
Non-capitalist countries don’t exist, smart-ass. But yes, the countries that value people a bit more than capital do tend to protect their people more than capital
I think we all need to remember that no CEO’s speech is more important that stopping human rights violations. Imagine if we had to wait until Hitler was done speaking to do anything
Influencers make money from the platform and in most peoples’ capitalism-riddled brain, “the government is ripping up your paycheck” is more alarming than “the government is silencing its people”.
I’m disagreeing. It’s really that simple. $60 million fewer dollars from $1 billion in revenue over 8 years (using your numbers here, please correct me if you think it’ll make your case stronger) is still about $1 billion. Any way you cut it, it doesn’t change the fact that it’s just a few cents

Okay, but, they’re already selling a product with a BOM of $20 at most for 70-90 monetary units. They can absolutely afford a few cents less of profit
it’s okay to tell billionaires to kill themselves
You can’t bomb a place or rape its people into stability. We have 200 years of hard evidence for that (not that it was needed). Literally any other approach would be beneficial for everyone except the war profiteers
The nintendo switch, released 8 years ago now, was the first console to never have a price drop. PS5 and XBOX series did not need to be convinced to join that particular trend
I’M OKAY WITH MAKING A WINDOWS ACCOUNT.
I’M JUST NOT OKAY WITH MY ~/ PATH BEING C:/Users/Jacobuedhbcuycbdhh55674c4bhdncy6448774/
THIS CAN ONLY BE FIXED BY CREATING A LOCAL USER AND THEN SIGNING IN
Ubisoft didn’t post this
Sure thing! As one of the global targets of the BDS movement, there’s plenty of resources for reading up on their categorically evil activities:

Some places in China are so technologically advanced, that every single thing you do is approved, verified and protected by facial recognition. Carrying a wallet/cash, locking doors, encountering traffic, and even petty crime in general are a thing of the past. In exchange, you’re monitored at all times by multiple cameras everywhere you go
I’d only expect this from China
It is my duty to remind everyone, whenever HP is mentioned, that they create biometric apartheid systems for rogue terrorist states
I’ve been a fan of Supergiant since their very first piece of art. The statement:
“We offer the strongest AI protections in the industry to our talent, as we think their work is irreplaceable. Our games are intentionally made by human beings; no generative AI is being used in the creation of the voiceover, artwork, or any other content that goes into them. We have not re-cast any of our characters in Hades 2, and wish to keep working with each and every member of our wonderful cast.”
Is very much in-character of them (all 25 of them!), so I believe it.
I just don’t understand where the confusion is coming from. Are they wrong to think they aren’t subject to SAG-AFTRA contract terms, or is it Miller who got it wrong and thinks they are?? The article’s author doesn’t seem to know either.
Either way, the voice actor directing their followers to send emails at a tiny company is a pretty gross move. Hope they can sort it out between themselves
If you’re earning money from the aforementioned editing, you can justify the absolute best CPU money can buy, though a 10% cheaper 9950X will match it. When it comes to gaming, it’s so far beyond any imaginable performance requirement, you legitimately might never need to buy another CPU again, and in this it is matched by the 17% cheaper 9800X3D.
If I were you, and assuming you make money from editing, I’d save the couple hundred bucks and get the 9950X (non3D) because there are very, VERY, limited real-world scenarios in which the 3D variant will outperform the non3D (gaming or otherwise)
