No deal.

Now do Musk and Bezos!!
All billionaire wealth is stolen wealth. All billionaires are bad. If you stopped bootlicking for a second, you would realize defending Gaben is defending the system. The fact that he can legally exploit it to steal from consumers and developers doesn’t absolve him from doing it.

Geo blocking is anti-consumer. It was a 16 million euro fine if I remember well.

Gaben isn’t your friend and probably mocks you during his high seas coke parties.

Steam makes a shit load of money. The server fees are basically a joke and they have 80 employees in the steam division.
The only things that is being invested in is Gabens fleet of mega yatchs, worth an estimated 1 billion, and costing between 75 and 100 million annually to maintain.
Valve has been fined in the EU for anti-consumer practices and received an F from the better business bureau. They are currently in the middle of an other lawsuit.
30% is way too high and it’s a joke to see actual consumers defend it.

Fan fiction isn’t exactly legal. Most companies ignore since take down requests tends to get a lot of pushback from fans.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 1 week ago:
Extra named NPCs was what I was hoping for. I understand why they didn’t because it would of been a huge change and I’m sure some of the fan base would have been very vocal about it.
I would have loved if they shipped it with mod support and maybe a oblivion+ version with official mods built by their teams like added npcs and other extras.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 1 week ago:
I played oblivion when it first came out but I put a lot more hours in to skyrim. I do think they could have improved the game a bit more. I’ve only been in the capital yet but it felt brutally empty, with all the npcs having the same path/walking speed and so few of them.
I think a bit of decorations and a few npcs would have gone a long way. I wished they would have worked on the AI a bit more. Taverns don’t have bards and little ambiance, walking into one is disappointing and ends up with all the npcs in a clump moving at a snails pace because all their walking paths overlap at the same time when they spawn it. It was the same in the original but it’s also 2025.
The waterfront could have really used a bit more shacks. The arena posters just slapped onto walls bother me as well.
Thankfully, I imagine mods will fix all this so I’m optimistic overall.

Sounds like you need to be doing coke instead of weed then. Easy solution.

Making me laugh?
- Comment on floats away in disgust 2 weeks ago:
I googled it and the three comics seem kind of terrible.
Not everyone finds MS Paint to be the most pleasing form to look at in any case. Really, it’s a bit much to see the constant witch hunt, you literally spam your 2 word reply just to start a fight. It’s just calculated negativity and gatekeeping.
I think you are making huge assumptions with the “not caring about the audience” segment.
- Comment on Given how paintball guns work, could you swap paintballs for a waterballs? 3 weeks ago:
It’s a great way to bring up insurance costs for a dealership.
- Comment on this is not satire this is not satire this is not satire 3 weeks ago:
There’s probably a bigger impact when you consider how paint and brushes are manufactured and the fact that it’s most likely shipped here from other countries.
It’s also laughable how little actual energy one picture takes to generate.
It’s a non starter when you actual compare it to something physical. It’s like saying sending a normal letter is better for the environment then an email.
- Comment on This is why we have a defense budget 3 weeks ago:
Bombing civilians really does something to a person. We need to help them, not mock them.
- Comment on This is why we have a defense budget 3 weeks ago:
All you would be accomplishing is alienating the only group that wouldn’t feel instant disgust when looking at your car.
They don’t even need to realize that it’s all fake generated waifus, only that theirs didn’t make the list.
- Comment on Clothes company cannot "cancel" an order that hasn't shipped, must ship it and do a return. 4 weeks ago:
When companies start telling you no for simple requests, just tell them they can cancel it or you can get your credit card company to do it.

- Comment on Found money. What do? 4 weeks ago:
Put posters signaling you found something (do not mention it’s cash) and would like to return it if the person can say what it is on the phone.
If someone hasn’t claimed it in 2 weeks, I’d give it to the kid (or we’ll probably her parents).
I’d also ask the kid were exactly they got it. If it was in a tree hollow or something similar, it might have been hidden and meant to pay for a drug deal or something. You never know, I just wouldn’t want that person contacting me.

FOSTA-SESTA, short for the “Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act” and the “Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act,” are U.S. laws passed in 2018 aimed at combating online sex trafficking.

- Comment on Least extreme biophysics phd 1 month ago:
The study I linked seems to include both self stimulated erections and erections due to injection. They also limit themselves to clinical measurements. They mention self measured results but point out that they are unreliable, as you said. They do point out however that there might be a difference between self stimulation and an erection with a partner.
But all in all, there isn’t a barrier because of the ethiques involved in touching a penis and masturbation.
- Comment on Least extreme biophysics phd 1 month ago:
A quick trip on Google scholar turns up a lot of studies on the size of male erections.
…squarespace.com/…/Penis+Size+Study+-+Veale+et+al…
It is acknowledged that some of the volunteers across different studies may have taken part in a study because they were more confident with their penis size than the general male population.
Ha
- Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?? 2 months ago:
In this day and age with the internet, I doubt there’s much he doesn’t know about in terms of how it works.
I would pull up statistics on stds and on the cost of raising a kid. Explain to him that almist 1 in 8 people have herpes and it never goes away, and how teen pregnancy really can fuck up future opportunities.
- Comment on Am I a bad friend/rude for not engaging with my friends and giving one-word responses? 2 months ago:
It seems obvious you know your behavior sucks. You can either make an effort, which most people actually do, or you can pretend you don’t understand and use it as an excuse.
Eventually they won’t be there for you. Why would they when you can’t even be polite or watch their stupid little half a minute videos.
Relationships take effort. It’s easy to notice when the effort is only one sided and it’s very hard to come back from it once it’s clear. Minimum effort or less doesn’t make for good friendships.
