Have you never heard of adapters?
And, in the end, we a have to decide on one standard. There used to be tons of different cables, and that wasn't exactly a better situation. Better to just bite the bullet and say this is the standard moving forward.
Damn it's a photo? I thought it was a drawing!

I don't know about that, email is still great at what it does. It's less that it died and more that people moved on to more real-time communication that fit their needs better, with email still being used for what it is actually good for.
I don't see how it's worse than other kinds of advertisment. We are spammed by ads everywhere. What difference does it make whether it's an OnlyFans or a car you will never buy?
Your phone only contains your own dirt.
It's like saying you're okay with sleeping in someone else's unwashed bed just because you're okay with doing that with your own.
Economic systems and political systems are heavily linked. Who holds the power? And is there a meaningful difference between political power and power through wealth? Or are they 2 sides of the same coin?
If, say, a tiny 1% controls all the wealth in the world, what does that mean for politics? Does democracy hold any power if the 1% can just use their wealth to get their way anyway? What can the 99% do if they have no wealth, and are dependent on the 1% for housing, food, etc? With the police and military legally and violently enforcing that the wealth of the 1% is protected and not just taken by the rest?
While it isn't as drastic as the 99% controlling no wealth, this really isn't far off from reality at all. If the vast majority is dependent on a small powerful minority to survive and have any meaningful quality of life, is there really a meaningful difference to an oligarchy?
Capitalism literally encourages this greed. It systematizes greed, instead of even attempting to fight it.
But the thing is, mod launchers have been working fine for me through wine. Though most games these days have integrated steam workshop support anyway.
I swear looking at the job fast food workers do it always seems miserable and hard as hell. And every time I think "I could never do this and this should pay more than I am".
Or when the generator simply isn't powerful enough to supply everything. Because resources are finite and you don't always have enough power for everything.
