Meta is playing all sides, and would personally kill children of any country for a fiver
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 1 week ago:
It’s OK, I think I misunderstood somebody else and it seems I was disagreeing with an OK comment too
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 1 week ago:
Yes, I know. That’s why I quoted that part, to show what stop killing games is about, for those who don’t understand.
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 1 week ago:
Agree. Maybe I didn’t make myself clear, but that’s my point

“Stop Killing Games” is a consumer movement started to challenge the legality of publishers destroying video games they have sold to customers. An increasing number of video games are sold effectively as goods - with no stated expiration date - but designed to be completely unplayable as soon as support from the publisher ends. This practice is a form of planned obsolescence and is not only detrimental to customers, but makes preservation effectively impossible. Furthermore, the legality of this practice is largely untested in many countries.
People should read the petition before being snarky and wrong.

Almost, but not quite. Fruto and fruta are not two genders of the same word, but two different words, with different sources words (fruto fructus and fruta fructa)
Meanings are very similar, so there’s a lot of mixup.
- Comment on Ubisoft EULA demanding consumers destroy delisted games adds fuel to Stop Killing Games movement 2 weeks ago:
I’m going to keep boycotting ubisoft until they release Beyond Good and Evil 2. Then I’ll boycott them because there’s no way they don’t turn it into an open world-climb towers to unlock the map-crafting-nonsense
- Comment on self-hosted i2p+qbittorrent beginner quickstart 2 weeks ago:
Do we need I2P to access that link? It shows address not found.
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I agree. We have been hosting servers at friend houses with consumer (mostly our own gaming PCs) forever.
The risk involved exists, but it’s far from the threat they make it be.
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 2 weeks ago:
Stop Killing Games is not trying to force companies to provide private servers
I don’t think this is what they mean. They say that of they provide the tools for users to deploy the servers, bad things can happen. So I think they understood SKG, they just lie about the consequences for gamers

Still trying to find the right direction on animal crossing.
- Comment on Study finds smartphone bans in Dutch schools improved focus 2 weeks ago:
Born on Europe on 1985. We never had a ban on phones (later “feature phones”). We couldn’t use them in class, same as the game boy, a comic or a Walkman.
Now schools force Chromebooks/ewaste with laughable restrictions.

Another great example of how to rationalize “this part in taking literally and this ones I don’t”. You can also say there was a lot of editorializing, that a lot came from secondary sources…
The Wikipedia analog doesn’t hold any water. For staters, the Wikipedia doesn’t say the mad hatter existed. If the Wikipedia started editorializing history extremely in favor or against trump, that would indeed make me question the validity of articles regarding trump.

You see how easy is to chose what parts you want you follow literally and which ones you don’t?
Now let them have a less toxic religion.
- Comment on community for lgbtq+ christians or those learning about christianity 3 weeks ago:
Never personally meet one that did. I’m sure there are, but the only time somebody rejected evolution on the grounds of religion was a Muslim, and a zealot.
I’m not judging all Muslims because of him, neither all Christians because the worse of them.
- Comment on community for lgbtq+ christians or those learning about christianity 3 weeks ago:
Only for those who take literal meaning and instruction from the Bible. Honestly, nobody who follows any holy book to the letter is fit to live in a society. They can’t change their believes and they don’t have you change themselves. More power to them really

Nah, pump the humidity. Free sauna!
- Comment on xkcd #3109: Dehumidifier 3 weeks ago:
I think we aren’t yet used to machines fucking us over in unexpected ways for that sweet sweet spying/ad revenue.
Like, who would have asked 10 years ago “will my TV show extra ads?”. Now it’s hard to get one that doesn’t have them. And dishwashers are next
