Any service enforcing device-only purchases will be a service I will not use. Owning a disk and always having a game at the expense of assuming the risk of physically losing it is acceptable and owning a game on the cloud so that I have to rely on their services, but can reinstall the game if something happens on my end is acceptable, but I'm not paying for a game I won't really own and still assuming the risk of losing it permanently if my computer borks itself.

That assumes a Lemmy link doesn't just instantly get you shadowbanned

I hate patents.

I bet if you had a black hole with a wall on one side and a light on the other, it'd cast a really trippy shadow.

Oh yeah, I was thinking about the income sharing rules when you don't buy a subscription. The people who need Pro features are fucked.

I feel like you skimmed my message instead of actually reading it, so I'll give you a chance to reread it.

Even ignoring how your vote doesn't matter if it's not a swing state, your vote is also worth many times more or less both for legislators and the president depending on which state you live in. That's not a democracy. In order for weighted votes to count as a democracy, you would also have to count much more strongly weighted votes, like if for example, billionaires' votes were worth a million times that of the average Joe.

Sorry, who you vote for as president* doesn't matter. Local elections can still have a big impact on your life and you can influence them directly.

The United States is not a democracy. In 2016, a man who lost the general election was illegitimately installed as president under the guise of some imaginary lines having more meaning than the actual, objectively factual will of the people as measured through a democratic vote. Unless you're in a swing state, who you vote for doesn't matter at all.

Doesn't that go directly contrary to what they actually said, though? They explicitly stated that existing games would be affected.

I think it is more probable than not that you are right, but easily conceivable that you are wrong. What if, **for example, ** it was shown that men were more likely to victimize someone on impulse with 0 planning, while women would plan it out and therefore use the gender preference system?

I know you bought your car 10 years ago, but you refused to make an account with the company that bought your car dealer out after you bought a car from them, so now we're repossessing it.

I've been asking this and never got an answer. I think the answer is that it isn't.

I meant a source for ride services specifically, but I'm in the US.

You can't really prove that someone isn't nonbinary.

Do you have a source for that?

I had the same initial reaction as Tender, but your comment made me realize that not using this policy doesn't really help keep drivers safe anyway. Plus, a driver can pull over and make a passenger get out, but a passenger can't force the driver to let them out as easily.

Godot supports C# and is IMO also not as dissimilar to Unity as other engines.

Wow, interesting!

I mean, that can't be legal, right?
