GDPR doesn't require them to ask if they would just not violate our privacy. In other words, it's perfectly legal to assume "no" if they have no means of asking.
- Comment on Veteran Videogame Analyst: Subscription growth has flattened [in video games] 1 year ago:
It is. But the industry would rather have all of us subscribing because that's a constant profit and they love constant profit. They'd rather have 100% subscribing and 0% buying than 10% subscribing and 100% buying.
- Comment on Veteran Videogame Analyst: Subscription growth has flattened [in video games] 1 year ago:
He means that the subscribers don't stop buying games elsewhere. They do both instead of migrating from one model to the other.

Do you mean NSFT?
- Comment on This console generation seems skippable 1 year ago:
As a lifetime PC gamer, I wholeheartedly agree. There were many console games I had been envious about in the PS2, PS3 or PS4 era. Now? Nope, nothing. Partially because the industry got so bad I'm hardly interested in most new games, but the exclusives are pretty much non-existent in the genres I'm interested in.
- Comment on Mbin is a fork of kbin: a decentralized content aggregator running on the Fediverse network 1 year ago:
Well, more power to them then! Ernest can then merge back the changes at his own pace, so everybody wins. Forks don't need to be treated with hostility.

Ultrakill (same devs as dusk)
The same publisher, but not the devs.
- Comment on Instances that didn't block facebooks- thread.net 1 year ago:
"Yes" in this case is agreeing with the cause of this list.
- Comment on Instances that didn't block facebooks- thread.net 1 year ago:
I mean, what do you expect from Fedipact? The dev doesn't push anything onto you, you willingly visit a list that got created for the very purpose of going against Threads. There is no hidden agenda.

I'm worried about what she'll evolve into further down the relationship.

I'm so confused why it's marked as NSFW.

- Comment on Are shops in the US usually this run down looking? 1 year ago:
Nothing as complex as that. Merely not willing to dox myself and limiting the details about my exact location. :)
- Comment on Are shops in the US usually this run down looking? 1 year ago:
European here: looks perfectly normal to me.
- Comment on Youtube is allowing Youtubers to advertise their merch even for premium users 1 year ago:
Considering how every single video description is already one giant ad these days, maybe the creators need to chill with their ads.
- Comment on Youtube is allowing Youtubers to advertise their merch even for premium users 1 year ago:
Why buy premium then?
- Comment on Risk of Rain Returns – Launch Trailer 1 year ago:
We didn't. The new publisher (Gearbox) apparently did.
- Comment on Were can find a list of Safe Sites where buy Seam Games/Keys/Bundles?? 1 year ago:
That's what I meant. They are sold to them by the users. And these users are often card thieves, directly or indirectly. Whether we like it or not it's a de facto money laundering system.
- Comment on Were can find a list of Safe Sites where buy Seam Games/Keys/Bundles?? 1 year ago:
The issue isn't the safety of your payment method or not working keys. The issue is with how they source their keys. They are often bought with stolen credit cards and sold to them. It's quite complicated but the end result is that the game developers are literally losing money on these services due to chargebacks and such.
- Comment on The Aliens did a little trolling 1 year ago:
And even if they exist but hide, the aliens will purge them if we vote for them, so we can get rid of them preemptively. It's a win-win!
- Comment on lol 1 year ago:
Careful with this dependency resolution. I predict lots of conflicts.
- Comment on Gamedev and linux 1 year ago:
Both the dev and his game are amazing. Highly recommended.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Prey (2017), Dark Souls, Outer Wilds. In no particular order.

"An American company" means very little when they operate outside of America.

Cruelty Squad too.
- Comment on Is America Really That Bad? 1 year ago:
Not an American here, so please correct me if my take is completely wrong. My understanding is that while the highs are possibly higher than in a lot of places, the lows are also much lower and possibly easier to reach. You could be doing perfectly fine one day, and then you get hit by a hospital bill ruining your life. It's surely a great place to be a billionaire or even just plainly well off. Except far too many people aren't and they would fare much better elsewhere.

Not really new, it's been around for about a decade. Otherwise: yes.

Will we be able to still access the games already on the HDD?
