  • It depends. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

  • I'm assuming it was hyperbole, not literal.

  • This seems a bit like missing the forest for the trees. Steam does not really let you know if the game is DRM-free, does not guarantee it will stay that way, and does not provide a reliable way to back these games up in a way where they could be used without the launcher.

  • Start selling games without DRM that only use the launcher to update and it’s better than steam.

    So... GOG?

  • I'm fairly sure it's just a joke comment.

  • "This game requires a constant online connection"

  • Permanently Deleted

  • This is the dumbest take.

  • They never had a "biblical right" because there is no such thing.

  • Out of curiosity, do you consider the sentence below to be a direct incitement to actionable violence?

    "It would be patriotic if someone were to stop Person X from enacting their agenda, even if they used force."

    If yes, what exactly qualifies it as a "direct incitement"?

    Additionally, would you say it makes a difference whether the sentence above is said by Joe Shmoe vs televised and said by a powerful person with many followers hanging at their every word?

  • The most shameful part is that the union unequivocally supports RTO, they just want it to be done a bit more slowly.

    Fuck neurodivergent people, and people who took the job from another city, like those in rhe article who need to commute 6 hours a day, right?

  • That's not creepy or weird, that's horrifying.

  • Except "mass" is not useful by itself. It's not a chair factory where more people equals faster delivery, just like 9 women won't deliver a baby in a month. I wish companies understood this.

  • I think the answer to this is lack of adoption.

  • Ok, but the comment thread is about people preferring Bluesky to Mastodon, hence my confusion.

  • Isn't the format literally just Twitter?

  • Then I'd have to assume your religion is also not-believing-in-unicorns and round-earthism, as well as humans-need-oxygenism.

    Agnosticism is not a lack of belief, it is a stance that one doesn't know whether a god exists or not. Frequently, the "belief" would be that it's impossible to know, which, by your definition, would also make it a religion.

    The argument does not hold up.

  • Are you complaining that older versions of Java don't have the features of newer versions of Java...?

  • For me, as primarily a backend dev, the argument was that it's a framework, unlike React, so you get an everything-in-one solution which is quite easy to setup and use.

    Given that Google still hasn't killed this one yet, it's also a mature platform with plenty of articles online on how to use it.

    IIRC the license was also better than React's, at least last time I checked.

    Not sure on what the landscape looks like today, but when I was making the choice, the internet didn't seem to consider other solutions to be competitive with either React or Angular.

  • Ah, yes, because if you do a modicum of prevention, like wearing a mask, you're obviously missing life and there's definitely no way to keep up with the world unless you just completely give up on safety. No in-between, snort covid or become a social shut-in.
