Well veganism is about reducing suffering. Like if the cows didnt suffer to produce that milk. Like no forced insemination, calfs aren’t separated from their mother, male calf’s aren’t slaughtered, the cows don’t have unnaturally large udders, you only take the over production and not steal the food from the calf and the cows live a good life then you could argue that the milk is vegan. But milk is not produced like that so milk is not vegan.

They could’ve invested half of it in something else and never had to ask for another dime while keeping the game in perpetual development
- Comment on Bandai Namco reportedly tries to bore staff into quitting, skirting Japan’s labor laws 1 week ago:
It’s not that different in Korea though. If you don’t work for Samsung or SK Group you are lower class. And your old friends who do work for those Chaebols will stop associating with you.

- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 1 week ago:
Some people truly care, some don’t and some fake it. Nobody is forcing you to care or even fake it. There are just consequences to it if you don’t, some people will think that you are an asshole if you do that and don’t want to associate with you anymore. It’s up to you whether you can live with those consequences or not.

Edging takes 75% of the time.
Yeah that’s the point.

They have original hardware on display.

In the Netherlands Food Automats are still very popular

- Comment on Anon plants a seed of doubt 2 weeks ago:
well my genes are from one of the former colonies. My short stature will tell you which colony that is.
- Comment on Anon plants a seed of doubt 2 weeks ago:
Yep I live in the Netherlands as a 5’6” guy. So many insecure short women here who only want men that are 2 meters all. My height is so much more of an issue with women who are shorter than me than women who are my same height or slightly taller.

Yeah more trustworthy, until it’s mating season.
Maybe this one is better, has great security features I’ve heard
- Comment on Anon races against the jock in P.E. 4 weeks ago:
That sounds really weird to me. Nobody cheered when I had PE because nobody gave a fuck. The only cheers you would hear were sarcastic. Nobody gave a fuck since everyone who cared for sports was a member of a sports club outside of school and they’d rather be training at the club then waste time and energy in PE.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 4 weeks ago:
Yep. This gen has been pretty barren when it comes to AAA games that aren’t remasters/remakes and it’s not just exclusives. The handful of AAA games I want to play run perfectly fine on my low spec PC. Sure not at 4k60, but upgrading my pc or buying a PS5 pro just for those games just isn’t worth it.

I can motorboat a bag of coins, while it’s possible with a single bill it’s pointless.
- Comment on I make games and this literally happened to me this morning 4 weeks ago:
The service providers are the ones who dictate the costs. They provide the infrastructure. The costs for these kind of transactions are much much lower because of economy of scale they handle millions of transactions per day across all their clients. Because they handle so many transactions they can charge a small percentage fee. The loss they make on small transactions, like in the cents, they will make up with bigger transactions.
While Steam uses a normal bank transactions to pay developers since they are business to business transactions. Some of them are in the hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars so you don’t want to have a third party handling those that asks a percentage fee. You’d rather just pay the fixed fee the bank charges per transaction. But that fee can be $10-$20 especially an international transactions. That’s why Steam waits till that money is above a $100. Otherwise Steam would lose money if they pay every developer who doesn’t clear that threshold, since Steam eats the costs.

Rarely happens. The vast majority of game on Steam make the bulk of their sales within a few months of release.
- Comment on I make games and this literally happened to me this morning 4 weeks ago:
No you pay a financial service provider who pays Steam in bulk once a month. So yes same principle applies.

The unions should visit André Thierig’s home and see how he likes it.
- Comment on Shigeru Miyamoto comments on AI, says "Nintendo would rather go in a different direction" 4 weeks ago:
They are not behind. Since they are not trying to catch up with Sony or MS. They purposely choose to use cheaper hardware and go a different direction. That’s not the same as being behind.
It’s their Blue Ocean strategy. They don’t want to compete directly against Sony and a trillion dollar company called Microsoft. Since the last time they did that it almost took the company under. They make a profit on each Switch sale since the first one was sold and they offer an entirely different gaming catalog that targets a different audience.
