They would probably have issues with publishers if you actually owned the titles.

It’d probably make them very heavily liable if for some reason Steam shut down, they had to make something unavailable for some reason, whatever.

Love it

You can’t just say that and leave come on

Yes, pure html pages are so much better and nicer to use!

They do, unfortunately

Consider the alternative

Source for the revenue? Was only able to find figures in the $50-70bil range.

Profit $20-30bil.

Do you understand the case enough to make a more accurate judgement based on the relevant laws? I don’t, but believe that the court does.

I was mostly kidding, though it depends on the problem itself - if I need an explanation for a function argument, no point testing shit if the docs answer it in 15 seconds. If it’s something more solution-y, I might do some testing before consulting the papers

Well articulated, good job

Yea coz that’s boring and for nerds

Then you’d be wrong

It’s open, so no licensing.

Also, compression-wise, it’s either equal or better from what I’ve seen

Nice thing is, you don’t have to. It’ll still patch the apk for you, it just won’t install it (having root allows it to overwrite the current app, allowing you to keep your data)

You either pay or you leave. Spotify wins, in both cases

Sure, but as a reason for why BSD is better, the present is what’s important.

I’m not downplaying it tho

They are considered green because they’re as green as fossil fuel gets (pretty much) and they’re very important for base load and peak covering

zfs is available on Linux just fine

But we’re not talking about the nature of the system here, we’re talking about this specific instance.

And I don’t agree they’d necessarily do it internally, sometimes talent is the biggest blocker, not money. They can contract out a team of highly qualified engineers from NASA for a project here and there, when they need it. Hiring people is extremely expensive and having those people do nothing between projects is even more so.

The fact that it’s not profitable overall doesn’t mean there can never be any profit from anything.

How would you know? It hasn’t been sold yet.
