Also befriending a drugged up DARPA dolphin will be a massive boon too.

Are you not able to read 2 letter acronyms?

BOTTOM TEXT

Watching fake anime girls play videogames or act like morons, or not supporting a country attempting genocide…

Doesn’t seem a difficult choice tbh.

Guessed who it was from the title, and yep, it was 30p Lee. What an utter spakker of a bloke.

pls no

That is fair, Dota 2 is cosmetic only. TF2 on the other hand, is selling items with stats, mostly sidegrades rather than upgrades, but they do play into a certain kind of play, which does make it a de facto upgrade if your style of play matches the items use case.

Epic Games Store, Gog, UPlay (or whatever ubisoft’s is called), Origin/EA Downloader have all not done this and yet they’re not controlled by Gabe Newell.

Fact is that steam, no one else, started the road down the licensing and not ownership of games path we are firmly on with regards to PC.

Most PC’s don’t even have a disc drive any more, it’s all downloads.

And Gog is the only one that still allows ownership and not licensing of software.

So yeah, you do know nothing at all.

You’re still playing proprietary games on your FOSS OS. Furthermore, the vast majority of people don’t care.

If it matters to you personally, I get that. But linux gaming is personally DOA for me as it still doesn’t support my simracing hardware.

You’re simping for a shop. The PC Shop wars have managed to be even more pathetic than the console wars.

I have Steam, Epic Games Store, GoG Galaxy, Battle.net, XBox, Ubisoft and EA’s thing installed and they all miraculously work since I’m on PC and it’s not a locked down consoles. I get to play games that aren’t on steam!

Stop locking your PC down, it’s not a console.

shareholders…owners… who cares about the vernacular.

Turns out, quite a few people when those words are describing very different things.

I just hope to christ Gabe Newell’s successor(s) are in line with his actions.

This is how I know that you don’t know much at all. GabeN has changed valve from being a game developer making amazing things like Half Life and Team Fortress 2, to microtransactions and no games. A continuation of what Gabe is doing is pretty much in line with the rest of the industry, except NBA 2k4 would be the last one and it would have microtransaction DLC for the next 15 years.

No they don’t, and you can totally set up a company without shareholders. LLCs have no shareholders for instance.

Tankie idiot named after reddits CEO. So probably a lot of things

Sorry.

Would be preferable tbh. China could just drop their claims over Taiwan and drop the levels of international tension by a fair bit, but no, they’re imperialists, and want to take everything.

Well Taiwan’s claim predates that of the current People’s Republic of China.

Non tankies.

Well you see, if one side is killing civilians, and one side is also killing civilians, then they’re both shitty.

It’s not difficult.

You’re allowed to not like a particular terrorist group without supporting a different one.

It’s not that difficult to say, for example, “The State of Israel is committing atrocities, in response to Hamas committing atrocities which was in response to The State of Israel’s treatment of the Palestinian people. The Houthis are also committing atrocities, and are also awful people.”

I’d like to interject. What you’re calling your GNU mug is actually GNU/Mug, or as I prefer; GNU + Mug… [insert rest of copypasta]
