I wonder how this will affect projects like Simplex

Notice how they flash their tasers when they get into the house and she keeps asking for the warrant? Intimidation tactic. Fucked up.

I’ll have to check that out I use a cheap unlimited data plan but I think they use T Mobile towers that might be it!

Yupp I’ve had my phone in my hand before and they call back and it rings for a nanosecond like not even enough to make the full ring sound once on the phone.

Then they hangup immediately and you have to start over.

Upon checking into that it looks like you’re right.

a judge can issue a judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) if they determine that no reasonable jury could have reached the verdict based on the evidence.

So while it is rare the judge can still fuck everyone involved in the case no matter what the jury says.

freedom

Are you aware of Kent State or the Detroit riots? They have shot and killed protestors before and no one banded together then and no one will band together now.

Also refer to how they have DEA and friends use their facial recognition on protestors all the time and then show up at your house with bogus charges.

Its easy to say do something from an armchair and I feel you, I wish we could do something

Ah yes how do you propose they do that women and children in the back so they get shot and killed last?

Or what’s your suggestion?

He’s saying if enough people stop using firefox the base for all of those other ones (Firefox) won’t be able to be maintained and therefore will kill all the forks that you mentioned.

And not shit will ever happen about it. More news at 5!

It just gets so exhausting. Nothing will happen. No one will be held accountable. Ever. USA USA USA!!!

US Government: “Best we can do is fuck all of you.”

Ducks browser runs on chrome though I highly recommend using anything but that because it contributes to chromes monopoly over the web.

Really excited for Ladybird and to see what Servo ends up being used in. Sad to see what Firefox is doing.

Anyone remember Weeping Angel?

Yes in the shithole that is America this is how they operate.

If you can, stay far away from USA.

I mean at an airport it is kind of warranted though. The only other options are to leave and go home and miss the flight (If you’re even near your home at that point), miss the call and put your job on the line, or go to the bathroom I guess but this is still public.

At least they aren’t doing it on the plane.

in a leadership role

it’s more important to be confident than to be right

… No dude, it isn’t.

put new, unreleased games up for sale at up to 50% off without permission from the devs during their first sales event

Holy shit I did not know that that definitely deserves some serious hate in that case.

The exclusivity stuff I get the hate for a little but PS and Xbox and Nintendo did the same thing for a couple decades but it still doesn’t make it right that they did either. But I do get it a bit.

I do prefer Steam and love what they do for Linux the steam deck is one of my favorite toys. But if I see something for cheaper on Epic than on steam I’ll always go for the cheaper option but some people act like epic doesn’t even exist as an option which I get a little more now after seeing some of these things you mentioned the forcing devs games into sales without permission is super fucked up.

“Do what I want or the people will suffer”

What’s wild about this too is that if you get a speeding ticket or something and don’t pay or miss property tax payments for a year they will send police to your house.

If you or I (I’m assuming you’re not a politician since you mentioned corruption) laundered even $10,000 through shell companies we would get 10 to 20 years in prison and fines of double the amount laundered. And can’t own or operate LLCs again.

But when fucks in suits do it they get pardoned and hired back. I bet his wife got to keep those companies too.

Yes and I have said the same thing in other comments before.

What about my comments made you think I don’t like or support steam?

I said that people complain about the epic games guy but also whine and moan about Gabe having yachts. Then you said they are being consistent and I said well when they recommend to use other millionaire/billionaires platforms that is not being consistent that is hating on a specific platform for the same things other platforms do (have rich people run them)

I’m confused about what you are defending or against here.

You can see in my comment history I have said the same thing you just said before to people anti steam. I love steam, and what it does for Linux.

But that doesn’t mean I’m against epic either.

Do you like cross platform gaming? Thank epic.

Hating on one but defending the other is exactly what I said doesn’t make any sense. Every successful gaming company is going to have millionaires. So when I said, people hate on epic but then complain that Gabe has yachts but still tell people to use steam over epic that doesn’t make any sense and is the opposite of consistent.
