Can someone in the know explain why this is actually happening?

Is there actually russian influence on the organisation that needs to be rooted out or is this an internal faction battle?

I am also curious to know if this is in anyway related to the corruption investigation that was happening on V Zelensky before the invasion. (IIRC)

Well with the support that's come from mainstream gaming influencers, I hope the opinion has swayed in the opposite direction.

Isn't that a win win tho? Less live service games?

The industry is already horrible to work in.

He did recently mention that you can't do political ads on YouTube, but he was rather more perturbed at the idea of navigating through the legal and financial system of EU, owing to his own personal troubles with them.

He might have changed his mind based on new info, idk. But he clearly doesn't want to get involved anymore than he needs to because it's very taxing.

I think the main reason he didn't want to take money was because he himself doesn't think can handle such a campaign or lacks the will to do so.

Dunno, seems like a global problem. European car companies are scared too. And they don't make those big cars.

The only issue I see is that china is very hostile with how it deals with other countries, otherwise this is just the trend of how things work out. In the 80s, it was the japanese car industry.

Even if they changed how would they win?

They're just too expensive to manufacture as compared to chinese ones.

Reality = immigrants bad because corporate daddy decided they're the best scapegoats for all the shit they promulgate.

And I accept that reality because it fits my idea of how I look at any one that's even slightly different and "lesser" than me.

I much rather be the only one well off. Because reality means only helping those who have the same skin color as me. Everyone else can go die.

Yeah, but as far as I can tell there's hasn't been malware in fitgirl repacks. So, I suppose I am outsourcing my vetting to them.

It's really a question of how much effort I want to put in finding a different source that's not dangerous. The extra time it takes to unpack them is okay then.

GOG games is fine as well, but they don't have everything and direct downloads aren't always stable for me.

I trust fitgirl repacks from the official sources.

Direct downloads and other sources need to be vetted.

I think the difference is that - chatgpt is very personified. It's as if you were talking to a person as compared to searching for something on google. That's why a headline like this feels off.

I like the aesthetics, what's this from?
