Had my eye on Children of the Sun a while back. Thanks for the reminder it’s on sale, I think I’ll pick it up too.

It’s less money in their pockets and more money in ours. That’s not going to be a double win in their books.

Getting Epic’s money isn’t a slam dunk for profit. You’re hedging your bets taking guaranteed Epic money for lower potential sales vs non-guaranteed Steam money for higher potential sales. Having a bad exclusivity deal on Epic and then selling your game at a loss (90% discount) on steam isn’t profiting both ways, and sometimes isn’t profiting either way.

I also disagree with the sentiment that you’re reinforcing bad behavior. If anything, you’re signalling to them that you won’t support exclusivity deals, and are happy to wait for a deep discount on Steam. Ultimately, that’s a win for consumers.

That said, fuck exclusivity deals, and I’m much in the same boat where I’m hard pressed to support developers that take them.

It was supposed to be the “universal language”. According to Wikipedia, up to 100,000 people speak it globally.

If I remember correctly, it was adopted by the League of Nations, a precursor to NATO, in the early 1900’s.

Here’s the article if you’re interested. I didn’t really read through it to fact check myself cause I’m poopin’ on break, but there you go.

You can play Nintendo games on PC, with the added bonus of not giving money to that ghoulish company.

I played BotW and TotK on my PC, and let me tell you friend, with the increased frame rate, and the ability to run reshade, it looks and feels better than ever.

I realize in hindsight I should have worded my comment more specifically. I’m NOT talking about the dude. I’m talking about all the comments at the girl.

I will never not condone clowning on rich assholes. Nobody gets that kind of money without some form of exploitation, and those kinds of people are fair game.

My comment was regarding all the other cringe comments in the thread that are saying shit like she’s not that hot anyway, or she looks fake, etc.

I can generally agree with that if it’s something someone can’t change. However: fuck billionaires

I don’t think a group of FOSS Linux bros are having supermodel girlfriends lol, but anyway…

I’m not even puzzled as to why people think she looks bad. I’m puzzled as to why people think anything about her looks at all.

Seems some people here are projecting their insecurities.

I don’t even care, either. I just hate hypocrites. Don’t throw stones from glass houses.

So are we only standing up against body shaming for ugly people? We’re okay shitting on attractive people that might have had cosmetic work done? Are we a bunch of hypocrites that stand for nothing and only react when our own feelings are hurt?

Boo Lemmy. Y’all can do better.

Drill, impact, etc are pretty much necessary to have cordless. I agree with the corded stuff though. Need an angle grinder or sawzall? Get corded. Way more powerful too.

Chemically induced motivation. Just how I like need it

Not much these days

Or YouTube vanced/revanced for mobile

Homophobia? Did we read the same comment?

Username checks out.

As a certified electrician, this logic also works the other way. I wire things. I don’t know why your PC won’t boot. Yes your computer uses electricity, but this is not my professional forté.

It’ll generally default to C drive on Windows. Most of the time, you’d click “browse” and select another drive.

If something is against “national interest” and your president is trying to become an autocrat, that means they can essentially pick and choose what national interest is. This should be setting off alarm bells in EVERYONE’S head as an obvious grab for power.

I’m not american, so I don’t have direct skin in the game, but everyone on both sides of the political spectrum who don’t self identify as fascist should be against this.

If you don’t interpret this as something extremely dangerous, you need to have a sit down and really think about the implications.

It really was weirdly good.
