IIRC Stripe is the main payment processor. If you’re paying with a visa or mastercard online, it’s usually via stripe. Hence, the immediate censorship.

Paypal can go fuck itself and die

Also worth mentioning, this happens every Friday

edit: no it doesn’t

I think it’s entirely illogical. Likely, they were burned before, and cautious about using anything under one name ever again, even though the circumstances are slightly but substantially different in Proton vs (for example) Google.

If by not using proton you’ll have to switch services less, or it’ll somehow make switching services easier in the future, sure. But I don’t see any reason to believe that

Do you know how many mass resignations have occurred at the NYT, since the invention of the terrorist state of Israel, because of their blatant misrepresentation —and often complete cover-ups— of massacres and crimes against humanity perpetrated by it?

As a tool for manufacturing consent, the NYT is second to none

Unfortunately irrelevant. Sometimes information is dense, it happens. Clickbait is wasting people’s time at best, and intentionally misleading at worst. This headline (for a free article) is neither

Genuinely trying to figure out your issue(s). Sorry about whatever you have going on in there

Are you threatened by the idea of reading? Would you rather titles not exist? Is it the reading or is it the clicking that offends you the most?

Clickbait usually refers to deceitful or misleading headlines. Were you mislead by this headline? How?

It’s all good brother. I appreciate the honesty, wasn’t trying to be dismissive (in the first comment :)) The lmao was at the thought of Apple doing something cool unforced

Those came after, Valve hasn’t a time machine (as far as I know)

You’re right about games not scaling shit properly, but that’s 99% of the time in gen 8 (console-first) games, where those games where designed solely for big screens with HD+ resolutions. Modern games have already started figuring out scaling for different resolutions and aspect ratios

Huh? Your issue is with the word ‘huge’ over ‘big’? Come on now.

 

I might not be understanding something about the fediverse, but isn't this like if you couldn't send or receive email from a friend because you use gmail Google decided to block @icloud domains?

Like, you're not forced to follow or interact with it, and are free to block it if you can think of a reason to, I just don't see why such an open platform used to limit users in this way
