- Comment on steam vs gog, which game store to buy from? 5 days ago:
This is a bit complex because of the way people define own.
Technically no one but the company who developed the games own the game.
Publishers effectively own it as they usually monopolize the entire licensing control of the game.
Gamers never own but merely have the license to play. This is true even with games from long time ago. While you do own the physical disk, you only license the data inside the disk.
Some people may define ownership of a game by the fact that no one is going to take it away from you. In that way, gog does do that. Since you can download a DRM free version you can install as many times as you want for as along as you want.

Your source says Trump won the popular vote.
Harris got 74.46m votes and Trump got 76.94m votes in the graph.
And the US Election Atlas claims 77.1m for Trump and 74.7m Harris.

Well, I pointed out the reason why your beginning comment is problematic. And as sp3tr4l pointed out, OP’s link isn’t even the one being referred to as the neo nazi.

How about you just watch and make the call yourself? Nothing about the video made me think she’s a neo nazi nor did I think she’s a bigot. People are allowed to want and like different things. Just because they have different wants doesn’t mean they should just get random negative label on them and then be hated without actually even seeing what they say.
