  And you’re at it again!

  I said what I said, and theirs is nothing vague about how you got to make choices in what you can and can’t have.

  You’re the one starting to make vague statements about “submitting to their demands”, and comparing the poor to the CEO (which is totally beside any points…)

  It’s quite simple: there are a billion ways to entertain yourself, some are cheaper and some are more expensive, some are worth your money and some aren’t.

  These companies don’t “demand” anything. They’re offering a service for a price. If you’re unhappy about that, move on?

  If you were talking about something with very few players, or in essential services, it would be a different discussion. Here we are talking about entertainment, so Netflix is in the same market as Wizards of the Coast, CD Projekt Red, Penguin Publishing, and a few hundred thousand others.

  You sure like to argue against arguments I didn’t make.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Louis Rossmann] Piracy is COMPLETELY justified: Louis tries NetFlix and remembers why⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Or you could act like a grown up and accept not having everything always?

  If you’re on a budget, what’s wrong with subscribing for a month or two to a service, then switching to another for a few months, etc.?

  Yeah! How dare they enjoyed their time with the game!

  “People with a lot of money generally are more sellfish than other people and think others should yield because their own self is more important.”

  What a dumb request.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Welcome To Aftermath - Worker-owned video game journalism⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Can confirm. I’ve seen a small studio abuse one of the sole dev that wasn’t an owner and ducking him so hard…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad it went away sir!

  Also, I would never laugh at you getting that, especially since welding is something quite useful for society, inline NFTs 😛

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why did Lemmy change from post/comment score to count?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Or you could just check what that person just said now and there and judge them based on that?

  Like right now I’m judging you about being shallow that’s easily influenced by group mentality and that is craving for social validation.

  You might be the most chilled person, or have the best value system in the world. Our more or less unique and single interactions will have been this post, so why should I care about the others?

  And if one human cares, chances are others could too.

  A former CEO.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GameStop’s definition of “New”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  First of all, how are you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GameStop’s definition of “New”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Do they still sell games? I would have sworn it was a Funko Pop dedicated shop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A software company called Threads says Meta tried to buy its domain and kicked it off Facebook⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And they can see that you don’t give enough shit about them to use Messenger.

  Two way street.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t go that broad no. There is just a ton of propaganda in America about how Israel is good, and a lot of whitegloving around anything Jewish because of the power some hold in society, especially in the media.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Threads third-party app support could become a reality⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh well…

  Anyways.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been saying I hate what Israel does (and to some extent Israel itself since it’s it’s sole purpose it seems) for a long time but saying that made me antisemitic. (Even though my disdain has nothing to do with them practicing any kind of religion, but is because of their actions.)

  Now it’s more acceptable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i wanna have fun programming again⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d suggest you go back to the roots, and find a language that allows for the usage of uppercase letters.

  He bought twitter to follow the same path WeChat did.

  He actually wants to do what WeChat, and a few other mega applications like that do. It works in the east, but we mostly don’t want that in the west afaict.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even the Tesla Cybertruck's Brake Lights Don't Make Sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It just makes that vehicle illegal to drive in Canada with its gate open. Or maybe even illegal to be sold here.

  YES!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why advertise on YouTube?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you more likely to buy Cascade dishwasher soap, or that other random box of a name you’ve never heard of, for the same price?

  That’s what I thought.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨today I was reminded how bad YouTube ads are⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Or, you know, pay for what you use?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨today I was reminded how bad YouTube ads are⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for being one of us and that you’re paying for the service. If more people were ads blocking, it would be even worse for the others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re just looking for trouble imo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NY bill would require a criminal history background check for the purchase of a 3D printer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m fine with that, as long as they prevent ANYONE with a white collar crime from owning any assets, right?
  That would be fair?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, wow, it’s way more east than I thought. With all that meaning around about it, now I’ll remember!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know where it is. I could look it up, but I would guess… Idaho would be middle almost all the way north and Delaware somewhere south-west of that. I don’t think Delaware was in the original 13 colonies and I don’t remember seeing any mentions of it between Quebec and Florida when I went when I was 9 😛

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The average non-Usaains knows way more states than the average Usaains knows of foreign states/provinces.

  Not knowing about where Delaware is relatively to Idaho is not the same as not knowing that Sudan isn’t in South America.
