  • Gabe Newell on Steam monopoly accusations: Gamers have 'enormous choice' about where to buy games

    Jump

  • Realistically, Steam is a monopoly.

    That's not illegal. In fact, it's not even (necessarily) a problem.

    If they misuse their monopoly position, then it becomes a problem.

    If your significant other cheated on you, would you confront or attack the person they cheated with?

    Jump

  • Nope.

    The third party isnt the problem. It's your SO that cheated, and who should suffer.

    Pack up. Leave. Take what you can.

  • I swept the garage today.

  • Got one, but it's in the old house still.

  • Major Studios Slam Canada For Slapping “Discriminatory Investment Obligations” on U.S. Streamers

    Jump

  • Boo fuckin' hoo, shitbags.

  • So, has age verification really become the new normal?

    Jump

  • No no no fucking NO!

    Do NOT accept this! Do NOT normalize this! DO NOT COMPLY!

    Did you really need to see that youtube video? If it was that important, then find another way. Lie. Get a downloader. Get creative. Or walk away, since it was probably not that important

    DON'T SELL YOUR IDENTITY FOR CONVENIENCE. DON'T WILLINGLY FEED THE SPIES MORE INFORMATION.

  • Fender escalates legal campaign against S-style guitars, issues first cease and desist to US builder

    Jump

  • Unfortunately, they have more money for lawyers than probably the entire net worth of LsL.

    Let's see them go up against Yamaha. In fact, I'd be happy to see Yamaha start advertising their guitars as "strat-shaped" just to force Fender's hand.

    Let's also make sure that Edward "Bud" Cole, the new CEO at Fender, gets full credit for this shitshow.

  • Fender escalates legal campaign against S-style guitars, issues first cease and desist to US builder

    Jump

  • I'm surprised at this. Companies have been making S-type guitars for over half a century. However, it sounds like the judgement in Germany was a summary settlement because the other side didn't bother to show up.

    One thing is very clear to me: I'll never buy a new Fender instrument again. Fuck any company that does this. You don't get to pick up your marbles and go home after giving them all away for FIFTY YEARS.

    Nope. Fuck Fender. They're digging their own grave.

    If you could make a magic wish so that your crush liked you, would you do it?

    Jump

  • No, because I'm not 12 years old.

  • How do you pronounce 'Niche'?

    Jump

  • neesh for all purposes.

    I've never heard anyone talk about a "nitch." Maybe an US dialect?

  • When & why did the word "muff" become a crass euphemism for a woman's crotch area?

    Jump

  • I remember it being common by the late '70s.

  • Why is society at large okay with euthanasia for pets but not for humans?

    Jump

  • Canada has Medical Assistance In Dying (MAID). People can - with medical approval and assistance - choose to go out on their own terms.

  • What would the next pres of USA have to do to gain back trust for America? Hold a televised event saying the last person was just a fuck up?

    Jump

  • Do you mean within the US or trust internationally?

    The rest of the world has begrudgingly let the US dominate world commerce, culture, and morality. Now they're realizing how much of their own identity they've given away, and are struggling to recover from it. Critically, even if the US ever gets their shit together again, nobody else wants to go back to the same relationship they had. We've been forced out of an abusive relationship, and now we're free.

  • Report: John Ternus to be a 'decisive' leader, 'reinvent' product lineup as Apple CEO

    Jump

  • Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Oracle, Meta, Nvidia, and yes, Apple, are all in the surveilance sales industry. The tech they produce is irrelevant.

  • Here's an idea to reinvent.

    Make tech, not surveillance gear.

  • Source for fresh black pepper?

    Jump

  • Silk Road Spice Merchant, out of Calgary.

    Not only do they carry top-tier spices, but they likely have multiple types of black pepper for you to play with. And they're good people.

    Cannot speak highly enough about them.
