- Comment on EU fines Apple $568m for deterring third-party payment methods on App Store 57 minutes ago:
Valve’s response to George Floyd was to give each employee a certain amount of money and let them choose which charity to give it to (if they did give it to charity), which means they could just add well give it to an any BLM movement if they wanted to.

And you think stupidity is exclusive to the US? Italy elected a fascist, Germany’s far right party is gaining ground…
Popular support for something doesn’t mean that thing is good.

“Eat the rich!”
“Including Gabe?”
“Woooow there cowboy!”
I hate the idiocy.

You’ll find people supporting plenty of shitty things. I could point 70m of those people in the US!

When you’re in a monopolistic position you don’t need to do much for people to decide to sell in your store instead of going for alternatives, who would have thought?

No shit for 3 days? That’s amateur numbers! There was that guy on Reddit that didn’t go for a month and a half and had to get unclogged at the hospital!

If you’re in America, grass isn’t even native to your country, please try to find alternatives!

Yeah anyone who runs a node is laughing at those numbers
- Comment on I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement 1 week ago:
I used to live in a city called Asbestos, the mine was closed back in 2012 and older folks are still angry about it, they’ll even tell you that the workers handling it weren’t in worse health than anyone else in the city… The worst part is that it was banned in the construction industry 30 years prior, so they kept exploiting the mine only to export it to countries that hadn’t banned it, even if it meant killing people there…
- Comment on Privacy is ‘the most valuable right of all’, says Signal’s president. 1 week ago:
Neither is privacy then
- Comment on Describe conservatives with one picture 1 week ago:
Pretty crazy that, in their minds, in order to be considered conservative you need to support Trump when he’s very far from a traditional conservative… And what space does it leaves for conservatives of other countries? It’s it like/r/news or /r/politics that “actually it’s US specific around here” and the rest of the world needs /r/worldconservatives or something? (Which is also an issue on Lemmy by the way!)

But privacy is?

Lulz, privacy without food to eat won’t be too useful
- Comment on The US Secretary of Education referred to AI as ‘A1,’ like the steak sauce 1 week ago:
Racism, that’s the word you’re looking for! So well implemented that the victims keep it going without any influence from the group that “has the right” to just call itself American without any prefix.
- Comment on The US Secretary of Education referred to AI as ‘A1,’ like the steak sauce 1 week ago:
That’s just being part of a minority no matter where you live. White Americans don’t all celebrate the same things and don’t all talk the same way, with some of them being nigh impossible to understand if you weren’t raised around people who speak like them, yet they’re just called Americans. Hell, if you were raised in the USA and have Danish parents no one will call you a Danish-American as long as you don’t have an accent, but if you are of Latino origins and your family has lived on US soil since before the USA was a thing you will be called a Latin-American. It’s just racism.
- Comment on The US Secretary of Education referred to AI as ‘A1,’ like the steak sauce 1 week ago:
Nah, that’s a load of bullshit, it’s just used as a way to divide people, there’s “real Americans” end then there’s the rest.
There’s a shit ton of black Americans that will never just be called Americans even though their family has lived on US soil much longer than the family of some of the white people who are just called Americans.

- Comment on China Just Turned Off U.S. Supplies Of Minerals Critical For Defense & Cleantech 2 weeks ago:
The anti globalists were calling it 40 years ago and for some stupid reason it’s not a freaking fascist who is destroying the system that the left was fighting against back then!

It’s not an uncommon practice in other countries, even in Canada being rich enough to invest a couple hundred thousands in the economy may put you in the fast lane towards your citizenship.
- Comment on I really need these games ported to Steam. What do y'all have on your lists? 2 weeks ago:
GOG doesn’t have a Linux launcher either so you’re already using a workaround, stop being a baby and just do the same for other launchers.
- Comment on I really need these games ported to Steam. What do y'all have on your lists? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, mostly because it was the first one on the market so people started building their library there and they’re too lazy to use multiple launchers and publishers would rather take the 30% hit instead of going with an option that takes a smaller cut for this reason.

I mean… Who is bootlicking a corporation, the guy saying people need to use the alternatives or the ones saying they only want to use one or two options?

“DAE Epic sucks, right guys?”
- Comment on I really need these games ported to Steam. What do y'all have on your lists? 2 weeks ago:
People need to stop fighting in favor of a PC gaming monopoly in the hands of Valve. Shopping at multiple stores is more of an inconvenient than just getting everything from Amazon or Walmart, it’s still bad for consumers to only have a single source for everything.
