By population, one third of the state is Calibama.

Valve or not, I have no reason to cheat on my beautiful 8BitDo Ultimate with that overpriced whore of a gamepad.

Update — Well I thought my comment was funny. 🫠

For the shorties out there.

Own yourself, short king, and people will be drawn to you like magic. It’s not confidence, it’s loving and accepting yourself. That’s all. Self-love creates a gravity for more love.

Anyone so shallow that they would judge you by your height is someone you don’t want be involved with. As soon as you get to know someone, their appearance ceases to matter and all that is left is the human being underneath. Consider those situations bullets dodged.

When I first met my partner, they immediately suspected I was autistic even though I didn’t. Over time I realized they were right, and everything started to make sense.

Oh, how I hate you philosophers.

Oh, how I love you philosophers.

The poster of this fascist boomer shit is exactly who I expected. 🫩

Can we please make the camel case titles not a thing?

The EFF warned that the legal risk could push sites to either ban all known VPN IPs or mandate age verification for every visitor globally.

This is the goal.

Why would they bother?

Why wouldn’t they naturally reflect the values of their corporate makers?

Way to go, Minnesota! 👏

Unless that different site is Codeberg.

$99 USD is hard to justify. 8BitDo Ultimate is half the price and a great controller.

They list Denuvo on Steam, so they already messed it up.

You have my permission to write fuck on the internet. On the fediverse, Zuck is the more offensive four-letter word.

The goal of neoliberalism was always neofeudalism. It was the means to this ends.

Before typing up that wall of false equivalence, you should have checked my comment history, comrade.

And once again, complaining about people trying to stop others from falling for the thieving tricks of late stage capitalism makes you an accomplice. If you’re not a neofeudal capitalist bootlicker and really do think that capitalism is unjust, then don’t complain when others are trying to educate the masses about the ways they can opt out, fight back, and make a difference.

DRM is theft. It infects games, cars, farm equipment, dishwashers, refrigerators, televisions, and every aspect of our lives. We will own nothing and be bled dry for it. That’s not a prediction, we’re already there. Stop defending it. Stop trying to silence opposition. Either own your opposition or own your bootlicking. You can’t have it both ways.

There is one thing you are right about. If you think that corporations should be allowed the ability to deprive their customers of their purchases, then you are complicit and we have nothing else to discuss.

do we really need a “This game has Denuvo so I’m not going to buy it” comment whenever a game with Denuvo is in the news

Yes. As with all social injustice and corruption, we are ethically obligated to draw attention to it every time. Allowing corporate theft against consumers to be quietly accepted because you are more annoyed by the backlash than rampant corporate theft makes you an accomplice.

Don’t be an accomplice.

I can’t think of any reason why Capitalist corporations would actively block people from owning or controlling the things they purchase. Does anyone else have an idea?

If bribing a fascist president with a literal gold bar, refusing to comply with EU law and then complying maliciously years later, global tax dodging, and anti-competitive behavior isn’t enough to piss you off sufficiently, I’m not sure what will.

When the Motorola Graphene phones are available, I’m dumping my iPhone, which is my last Apple device.
