“With the sense she has been raped wile she slept”
Seems to me an appropriate short hand to what was written. And i also believe that in rape cases, like all criminal cases, the victim should be trusted but verified. And the accused is innocent until proven guilty. And that the names of both parties should be sealed until the matter is resolved.
Do the “perps” get to keep the big wooden marble with their name on it?
Biden was providing the reasons to not vote for him all by himself, he didn’t need any help from the Russians. But its not a worry now so what ever.
I was VERY critical of Biden, before the debate, before the backing of Palestinian genocide. So i was very happy he stepped down, and am content with Kamala Harris. Russia can try all they want. There is nothing they could do to dissuade me at this point.
Just wondering why you have justified the bombings of children because… checks notes the UN run schools -might- have been teaching history to generate hate.
It’s only nazis or SS if it’s made in the Germany region of Europe, otherwise it’s just sparkling ethno-nationalist.
I only read the abridged version, but it seems like it does to me. It basically said that the reports are purposely burying the lead and FOR SOME REASON refuse to entertain the idea that it’s caused by corporate greed.
I can’t sign for Canada, but i can up vote this post to get more visibility, maybe.
I got mine from MIRA. Though now i am getting their end of the world news letter…
Yes there is. Because it gives the games companies the ability to sell however they like. What to make the game sellable privately? No problem. What to sell an apple version, go for it.
So what part of the open market covers preventing the consumers from being able to choose which launcher they prefer, if any? Valve didn’t do that. EGS did. You should blame the competitors for failing to meet market standards
When you are upset at Valve for not doing for apple what they did for Linux, who you are really mad at is Apple for having terrible… everything, and game developers who don’t want to put the needed effort in for such a modest return.
You are upset at everyone BUT Valve. Or at least you should be.
Its the “if you build it they will come” type of scenario. I want to switch to Linux really badly, but my driver is for gaming, i don’t want to adopt a pet project of getting my games to run in the first place.
Though i know valves interest in Linux is not completely motivated in philanthropy. They want to be able to separate from the dependence of Microsoft, for the safety of their businesses future. But so far our interests align
I am not aware of any stream agreement with game developers that prevents them from releasing their game using any other method. Your argument about streams “” monopoly “” is 100% due to market forces working as advertised. They offer a service that no other company either can or will match. And that is not the fault of steam and was not achieved by illegal means. There’s dissent even need to be a launcher at all! Game companies can just sell us the game alone without a launcher. What other companies want is market dominance, not a fair market place. Because the fair market place gave steam the current win
What it does make invalid is the argument that valve is enshitifying because they don’t cater to apple users. You can put that blame on apple all day. Valve? Not at all. Its a huge waste of time, and all efforts tword Linux advancement is much better spent.
I get the other responses as i wasn’t very clear on my meaning, but this confuses me.
I was intending to use it as a metaphor. Meteors usually are not the exact thing they describe. Its goal doesn’t have to be a thing that turns a profit, when it can be used as a tool in other ways. I didn’t do a good enough explanation of my meaning
My intention is that the value of the thing is what it can be used for. Its a tool that can be used to spread propaganda, and control the narrative. For the owner it’s a means to an end. Guess i should have clarified.
A hammer doesn’t turn a profit either. Its a tool used for a purpose.
I am my companies best employee, and am now a manager for the sole reason i know how to concatenate and use find and replace in excel.
I mean, I’m not concerned so much about what evolution wants. I am more concerned that i can make living not suck.
This frames the situation like they equally oppose a cease fire? I got the impression that hamas agreed to conditions of a cease fire, and isreal altered the deal to continue bombing palestine, though.
