Republicans are 100% better at social media and running their own media. Fox News is a genius concept that liberals still have yet to copy effectively despite being around for… two decades?

Because that doesn’t work with democrats. You’re missing something – conservatives literally have different brains than us. They’re driven by stories and images of fear. Trump just sounds like a hateful moron to me, there’s nothing he does better than Biden. His “style” just appeals more to people who have a very different brain than mine.

BG3, Hades, Monster Train

Trees don’t generate large profits this quarter, obviously.

So you like clones of 90s games lmao, that’s cool ill try a couple of those out but like a doom clone lile hrot is not goty2023.

But if two people are doing the same exact thing for the same exact reason

Sure, if we’re talking about small children innocently changing characters to be more like them, that’s a totally fair argument. But the context here is a publicly homophobic modder working for weeks to create a full mod to erase gay characters.

Yeah that’s huge, why pay full price for a buggy game when i can buy the patched/optimized version of the game for half price a year later??

Mobile games are so bad. Whenever i can i just use steam link to play something from my PC on my phone. The handful of good mobile games are all ports. If this means more good games on android, I’m all for it.

Well i hate watching movies so yeah i probably wouldn’t like AW lol

It’s called a “straw man argument.”

They’re not. Context matters. If i say you can’t back up on a highway, that doesn’t mean you can’t back up into a parking spot. Straight people have never been an oppressed minority, there’s nothing hateful about fantasizing about your favorite white character being black like you or something. There is a hateful history behind wishing all black characters were removed from a game.

Yes.

It sounds like you don’t know anything about the economy complaints in CS2.

AI music is also going to suck if you give it shitty pop music to train on.

It’s about the service.

You’re missing the point, the article is wrong: it’s not about the prices.

Yeah, it’s reall not even about the prices. It’s just so inconvenient to go between all those apps, and then login forgot your password, rest, 2FA so i have to get up from my couch and grab my phone.

All these paid services could be totally free from a monetary perspective and I still wouldn’t sign back up for them. It’s a worse service than cable TV used to be at this point.

I’m a “follower” of the Austrian School of Economics

Okay, so you admit you have no idea how economics work. That’s really cool you’re part of an economics fanfic club though.

In fact, monopolies can only survive through government-grant privileges

This is just false. You dont understand economics at all if you dont understand how all free markets naturally devolve into monopolies. Yes, governments can also grant monopolies by force, but without antitrust laws literally every market becomes a monopoly.

I used it since netscape navigator XD

The only difference is that, in a free-market setting, they wouldn’t have any monopolical privileges

You cant have a free market without a government enforcing anti monopoly laws.
