imagine if by dumb luck, since the re-releases are so violently frequent, both games converge into a state where the mods are compatible with each other
Or the games just straight up bleed into one another

I didn’t mean to imply that smaller companies should have free reign oops
Or are you saying that those hosters are generally less predatory?

I’ve been on an AWS project for about a month now
And, my god, there is so much to be infuriated by.
My first revelation was that there is no payment killswitch. E.g. if I spend more than X dollars, stop all my services and don’t charge me anymore. Nope sorry can’t do that
You can set “Budget alerts” but holy fuck, the emails do not arrive anywhere near reasonably on time
$0.40 per secret stored, billed monthly. Imagine the keys for every lock in your apartment showing up as charges on your rent invoice.
With every managed service, it feels like the setup menus are just a game of minesweeper, where if you don’t know any better, you might accidentally cost your organization $500 per hour and not know until the next day when the pa
Maybe it’s just because I’m new to it, but apparently, this kind of shit is rampant among most cloud providers.
Biggest companies in the world still need to pickpocket their customers and that’s somehow okay

- Comment on Is there any way of trying Battlefield 6 without buying it or paying £17 for a 1 month EA Play Pro subscription? 3 weeks ago:
Call me cheap
homie that game is $70
You’re not cheap, you’re literally trying not to get robbed
You can buy a few dozen really good indie games for a fraction of that price
That urge to buy and play it ASAP is marketing doing its job.
Easier said than done, but if you really hate EA, your only choice is to eat the FOMO.
Otherwise, you’re feeding the beast.

Kick me in the brain stem if I’m on the wrong track, but I feel like it’s by design
In general,
Everyone hates public officials taking bribes
Everyone hates streaming services raising their subscription fees
Everyone hates advertisements
Everyone hates big pharma charging $1000 for a cancer treatment pill that costs 0.1c to manufacture
The throughline is obvious, but I feel most people just take a neutral or dismissive (and sometimes aggressive) stance if you bring it up.
It’s that cognitive dissonance that feels engineered.
I don’t know how to fix that. Admittedly, I still need to do more reading.

I don’t know what I expected, but it certainly wasn’t that many people with their bare ass cheeks out.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not gratuitous, but enough to feel like some kind of pattern. Just people with their butts hanging out.
Anyways, this little story was my favourite: Image

(Continue reading when you’re done laughing):
Eventually, victims eventually run out of “free” storage.
The humble corporation will do a bunch of psychologically unethical tricks to basically hypnotize users into forking over those three digits at the back of the family credit card.
Now the victim’s data is effectively held ransom. Keep paying or lose it.
But they won’t stop paying. They paid for a year’s plan at a discount and the peaceful megacorp conveniently hit autorenew for them at checkout.
12 months roll around and oopsie, they already have the money. They could go through the refund process, but they’ve got shit on their plate, might as well keep it for another year.
I could keep rambling, but on Lemmy, I’m probably preaching to the choir about the first verse of genesis.
