Thanks for the warning!

I’m not trying to convince you either way, but can you point to the ‘political BS’ Proton guy said that made you flip? I use Proton and also veer hard left wherever politics are concerned, and I personally think the whole thing is way overblown. I may have missed something though, happy to hear otherwise, because in my understanding all he did was soft-endorse someone who identifies as republican at the moment

Damn.

Damn

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

Ultron was one time!

Seeing this exact sentiment is so depressing. So many otherwise intelligent people just believe billionaires’ words despite their actions. Like, it shouldn’t be surprising that the most egocentric, greediest, and sociopathic beings on the planet are “bending the knee” and “keeping mum” whenever it benefits them personally, and yet…

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

The American “left” is on the far-right of almost every other country in the world. Not right, not even center. You need recalibrating

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

Yuzu would like to have a word

The amount of not KDE answers here surprises me. Y’all a bunch of nerds [endearing]

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

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:

And here’s a simplified rundown:

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
