I, for one, welcome Europeans to stop buying from China. We need to boycott countries that support invasion of Ukraine.

I'm seriously failing to understand why is Lemmy suddenly defending a corporation and a billionaire from such things. The lawsuit isn't even about the 30% cut, but that's also greediness. The "tax" hasn't changed since the times 100GB HDD costed around thousand of dollars, internet was metered in megabytes and the infrastructure was just not there yet. Still taking 30% from all devs is clearly corporate behaviour. Valve is literally called "Valve Corporation". Sure, they're less evil than EA, but is that everything gamers need to settle down?

EDIT: All hail Gabe and his fleet of super yachts, gimme upvotes. Redditors.

Before they're released on steam? I'm fairly sure all the free games have been released to steam first, or did you fail the reading comprehension?

What the fuck are you even talking about?

The lawsuit - filed at the Competition Appeal Tribunal in London - alleges Valve "forces" game publishers to sign up to conditions which prevents them from selling their titles earlier or for less on rival platforms.

This has been known about steam for quite some time now. This is textbook anti-trust lawsuit.

So because the studies haven't found out that they're more dangerous than smoking, means they're arguibly worse than smoking? Solid logic.

Just FYI, glycerine has been used in smoke machines in concerts/events for decades with no known found risks. Better don't look up what your soap contains

Also, if you know what founder of Islam did/married, then using an islamic religious leader as a point against pedophiles is filled with irony

Why do you want HK to be a neutral state and not work with China?

It's not what I or you or China wants. It's what Honk Kongers want. Stop with this imperialism mindset.

Aha, and what did the government do to poor billionaire Jack Ma?

Re-education as soon as he spoke against the government, which is inherently authoritarian thing to do.

have even a quarter of what the average baby boomer had at your age, like 7+ children, a big home or economic stability.

Lmao if only you knew

I still don't understand why you keep mentioning USA or Trump because for the Xth time I said that I'm not American and I don't support US or Trump, are you AI chatbot or something? Both China and US are terrible countries, on par with each other.

If you take a look at my profile, you'll find me constantly shitting on US

This is such a dumb response that I started facepalming after first few sentences and had to stop reading because all your initial points were stupid and completely missed what I was saying.

No, I don't care about billionaires - I was talking about what the government does

No, I don't want USA to own HK, literally no one says that, I want HK to be a neutral state. Also, I'm from Russia/Somewhere else in East Europe depending on time, not an American. I'm not reading rest of your obviously stupid comment, take the pills.

Isn't it common for people to start consuming alcohol with age? I found it disgusting still at 20

Veritasium also made a follow-up video addressing their arguments. After that, they kind of went silent and seemingly sided with Veritasium

brb got a business idea, but first I gotta call one of those lab-grown meat businesses

The trailer left me confused. The artillery barrage, army helicopter shooting at you, etc.. what type of game is this exactly? Are you a survivor in a zone, or soldier in a war?
