- Comment on 'This is definitely my last TwitchCon': High-profile streamer Emiru was assaulted at the event, even as streamers have been sounding the alarm about stalkers and harassment 2 days ago:
The entire thing feels exploitative and gross for everyone involved, both the streamers and the people watching / paying them.
Exploitation of others is the beating heart of capitalism.
- Comment on Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way 2 weeks ago:
A thing you buy should always include all the things you need to use it. Not just a charger and cable, that includes batteries where relevant.
- Comment on "I’m Canceling My Subscription": Xbox Players Call to "Boycott" Game Pass "Hard" Over 50% Price Increase As Microsoft’s Website Crashes from Mass Cancellations 2 weeks ago:
Even if 1/3 of their subscribers cancel they still come out ahead because of lower infrastructure costs. i doubt they are going to see a 1/3 reduction in subscribers, so capitalist exploitation and enshittification will win again.
- Comment on EA's new owners are making "a huge bet" on generative AI cost-cutting to help repay a $20 billion loan, claims report 3 weeks ago:
I have some bad news for the new owners.
- Comment on New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state 4 weeks ago:
Which is ridiculous if you think about it. The whole point of a website is that the visitor goes to them. Unless their servers are located in a place that place should have no jurisdiction or authority over them whatsoever.

- Comment on Steam UK users will now need a credit card to access mature content due to the Online Safety Act 1 month ago:
It’s a good thing this was never actually about children.
- Comment on Microsoft fires two more employees for participating in Palestine protests on campus 1 month ago:
The person you are replying to is a well known openly fascist MAGA apologist. There is little point in attempting any kind of good faith discussion with them.
- Comment on If you've given up on Civilization 7, Civ 6 is free with all DLC expansions for a limited time on Epic Games Store 2 months ago:
Civ 7 shipped with Denuvo malware. No matter what they may eventually do with it, it’s not worth touching. They’ve shown how much contempt they have for customers and that’s all that matters.
- Comment on Reddit’s UK users must now prove they’re 18 to view many types of content 3 months ago:
The only thing this does is punish everyone and implement more surveillance.
Tories: Precisely.
- Comment on SteamOS outperforms Windows on almost all Legion Go S benchmarks, but Lenovo seems to want to pretend that the SteamOS version doesn't exist 3 months ago:
This is just my opinion, but if a game doesn’t work on Linux/SteamOS then it was never worth playing to begin with.
- Comment on Rumoured Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake teased by actor who's pretty chill about loose lips sinking ships 3 months ago:
It’s not the AC-free Black Flag spinoff the world has been demanding for over a decade, but it’s better than nothing. It’s definitely better than Skull and Bones, which was infinitely worse than nothing.
- Comment on Patreon will increase the cut it takes from new creators 4 months ago:
Ko-fi is a much better option for creators. Don’t let Patreon fleece you.
- Comment on Adobe turns subscription screw again, telling users to pay up or downgrade 4 months ago:
Affinity is an excellent replacement for Photoshop, Illustrator, and Publisher. Gimp is a dumpster fire, both as software and a FOSS project.
- Comment on [Game] Doom the Dark Ages will not run well on steam deck at release 5 months ago:
It ships with Denuvo malware, so I just assumed.
- Comment on Has the Deck turned *off* any other Steam users? 5 months ago:
You’re totally correct. The reason you’re getting downvoted is because that seems tangential to the problem you mentioned, which already has a solution (Family Sharing).
But yes, the world needs strong digital ownership laws yesterday.
- Comment on New bid for TikTok from Perplexity AI could give US government 50% stake 8 months ago:
We can’t have nationalized healthcare, but we can have nationalized TikTok if it works in the favor of nazis and fascists?
Yeah, that jives.

Google Chrome reminds uBlock Origin users to switch to Firefox.
