Check out some trailers for Falling Frontier, it looks like it has a lot of potential at least.

Doesn’t matter where they’re from, or what language they speak, or even particularly what the laws are in your country: The far right are criminals, every single fucking one of them.
Edit: bloody hell, I hadn’t looked into Brave that deeply yet, fuck Brendan Eich and fuck Peter Thiel.
Jesus. A day without bad news from Mozilla would be nice. I am beginning to feel a distinct need to switch browsers. and Brave is currently looking like the best balance between compatibility and privacy. I’ve only been resistant to Brave because it’s based on Chromium and I want to support non-Chrome browser engines, but the Firefox forks I’ve tried like Waterfox and Pale Moon just aren’t there yet in terms of usability for me (primarily, wide protocol support for web video playback).
Anyone got any better suggestions, by any chance?
Accurate. In order for this to stop the punishment needs to be more than the cost of doing business. Thankfully, Valve seem to be hell bent on doing right by their customers, in most cases at least (just to leave room for scandals I haven’t heard about or forgot 😅)
If you think that an arbitration company isn’t going to end up sympathetic to the people signing their cheques after some amount of time in operation, I’m afraid I have some bad news for you. Even if the loser pays (and that’s not a guarantee, some companies foot the bill regardless to make it seem like the better option to the consumer), it’s still the company contracting the arbitrators and the consumer doesn’t get a look in on that, so future business is absolutely an incentive to put the thumb on the scale. “After all, both parties agreed to be bound and waive their right to trial, so what are consumers going to do?” is the logic. Most will drop it after losing arbitration, and there are savings on court costs there too.
I don’t assume arbitration wraps up in any arbitrary amount of time (🥁). I say it’s quicker than litigation because it is, every single time. Because it is quicker it is also cheaper, every single time. Small claims court is different again, and not at question here, just to head that off at the pass.
You however do assume a lot like my location and the location of the suit I brought though, based on my vernacular, and I’d recommend against that. “Mate’s rates” could put me in the UK, or Australia, or New Zealand, or even some places in South Africa and other former colonies. None of those would be accurate.
If you push everybody into arbitration, you’ve already got the arbitrator in your pocket and your costs will still be less than litigation in 99% of cases - even class action. I don’t think you understand just how long and expensive and unpredictable litigation can actually be, but I’ve brought suit before so I do. It took four and a half years to get an initial court date from first filing the complaint. Not the trial, just a date so the judge could hear the facts of the case and opening statements from attorneys. Four and a half years of paying my attorneys, as a private individual, with a lot less money than you might think. And they were giving me mate’s rates; I’ve worked with companies where the legal work billings were in the tens of thousands per day for a single participating law office. That shit is expensive.
Maybe Valve did this to fuck their customers, but they don’t really have a track record of that, and since in the majority of cases arbitration is without question an anti-consumer move, I’d say that if your aim is to paint Valve to be the villains for this then it’s going to be an uphill battle.
Arbitration is always cheaper and faster than the courts, because the courts are very backed up especially since the pandemic, and there’s a lot of admin cost which doesn’t exist in arbitration. That is why almost every other company is trying to force arbitration. So if the goal was to save money, forcing court would have the opposite effect.

He’s not going to turn Senegal into a liberal paradise; his party and policies sound to be more of the same homophobia. But it seems like he will actually try to end the corruption and put the country on the track to independence rather than looting it like Sall. Secularity is a cornerstone of the party, which is an important first step. Here’s hoping Senegal is on its way up!
Your taste in games is good, friend! As long as you have fun with what you play, how could it be otherwise?
That’s crazy! At my job, I just help our users. I don’t have to build (and then maintain) infrastructure with them.
I regularly fix my bashrc file with Notepad. I run it in Wine because I cbf to RealVNC from my Windows CE media server.
(n.b: None of this is real, I wrote it to upset people, I’m sorry)
Yes, and at wholesale rates it’s a pretty good bang-for-your-buck, as an advertising scheme. Advertising is a numbers game about getting as many eyeballs as possible on the product, and I know I actively check for free games on the Epic launcher most weeks. Even if I don’t ever buy anything because of that specifically, it keeps the app on my computer and keeps me checking back in.
Edit: And I shit you not I just opened it to check 'cause I can’t remember if I looked at this week’s free game. Turns out it’s a good thing I did too, the Fallout collection is free right now!
(dammit, see what I mean?)

Drinking too much water is pretty difficult. You must be talking about the consequence of drinking a healthy amount of water, which is peeing every hour or so. On the one hand, yes, it’s really annoying to be in the middle of something and have to go take a piss. On the other hand,
My boss makes a dollar, I make a dime
That’s why I piss on company time
Did not know that, thank you for improving my day with that little fact!
I see a “Bibi
defEnder of Israel” sign in that second screenshot you posted. Doesn’t sound like those guys are too happy about Bibi or the war.How about unless you know every Israeli, you don’t just paint them all with the same brush? The people are not the government, and Israeli protesters are being suppressed with extreme violence: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-06-21/ty-article-magazine/.premium/israeli-police-crack-down-on-protesters-with-violence-false-arrests-and-surveillance/00000190-3a6a-dea6-add5-faea16460000
This shit needs to end, Bibi is going to start World War Fucking Three at this rate, but do not for a second believe that the Israeli population is united behind him. They’re not, no matter what the poll numbers Bibi approves for publication might say.
