How much money did Valve put in? Where do those 100+ devs come from?

Improperly redacted documents from the initial Wolfire case — later hidden — indicated that Valve had only 336 staff in 2021, with just 79 of them working on Steam. We’ve remade it using data reported contemporaneously:

In a society / country that’s wealthy that’s likely to be true. In a society / country that’s poor it’s likely that more are looking out for themselves only and that makes for shitty people regardless of status.

This is kind of important - I commonly see that people want to fight bigotry head-on rather than addressing what caused people to be bigoted in the first place, for example.

Fediverse does everything I require out of social media. Functionality of threadiverse is mostly there and getting better (Piefed will probably replace Lemmy as the go-to eventually), apps are better. Mastodon / microblogging was always good enough for communicating with real people, it’s when you’re an influencer you run into limitations but who cares about that. Maybe there aren’t that many people that are into this and that’s okay because we’re not a corporation that needs to report quarterly growth forever.

If being poor was a choice then maybe but there are scientific studies that show that adverse environment is likely to cause dark personality traits to emerge in people.

We’re back to Intel skipping future nodes in favour of futur-ier nodes.

Apologies for my scatterbrain. In that case I’d go with BotW because it’s shorter/focused (others will say it’s too minimalist) and you’ll get to experience a modern Zelda game. Also, if you don’t own Switch 2 it runs good enough while TotK was just a bit too much for Switch 1.

TotK is better in every way but BotW is once in a lifetime experience due to how contemplative it can be. You’re not going to play both at the same time and they benefit from playing in order. If you’re low on cash buy some used copy of BotW off someone on Vinted* and sell on Vinted once done, then do TotK.

There are plenty of right wing pro-EU parties in Europe but they call themselves centrist or liberal. They don’t care for vulnerable groups of people but are pro big business and therefore pro-EU.

Piefed support in Voyager is pretty rough right now, recommending it might do more harm than good.
