Until individual freedom encroaches on the others is right. Move, be moved or lose all freedom. Joining costs only the freedoms you’re willing to sacrifice, turning away costs only what you’re willing to take with you.

You and I won’t agree but I appreciate your point of view.

Intent. That’s what matters and a willingness to be remanded for punishment, a sense of justice helps too. I know that a life taken can never be repaid but Jimmy Carter is willing to die trying like he feels guilty for taking many. On the other side of that is baby shitheel Kyle who feels no remorse for the lives he absolutely took.

I’m sorry I didn’t mean to cause you harm let me to my best of my ability make amends is better than choosing violence for the sake of blood. Someone dying because all the consequences of actions that could not be accounted for is worlds apart from showing up looking to shoot a looter.

This is really good.

I speak for no one but myself: violence is never the answer, risk of accidental death is ever present. If my actions, my words creates a loss of life I submit myself to judgement and atone for all that I am liable.

Yeah my claim is that Valve used the data from their monthly survey and anything that was not willingly provided from users was bought from Google to R&D the Steam Deck. If that isn’t a probable or plausible scenario to you then you simply don’t understand why marketing data is useful.

I never said anything about selling out to Google.

I’m not a defeatist, I’m just wondering if this battle is worth making a stand at when in order to change the gaming industry you first have to change the nature of industry itself. At what point do you stop trying to save the Titanic and start drawing plans for the Titanic II?

there’s the monthly hardware and software survey

It's optional.

whatever users didn’t willingly provide was probably bought from Google.

Ah, yes, probably.

I mean I wish I could find a source

No surprise there.

We’re all voicing opinions. I chose mine and don’t begrudge yours.

More like false accusations.

Your words in bold to highlight how hard it is for you to believe that Valve bought data from Google to create the Steam Deck.

I understand what you’re saying but there will never not be mtx in games. Even if these guys are getting raked over the coals the only lesson being taken away is to nickle and dime you slower.

More like false accusations.

This is gold. Imma remember this one fondly.

I’m not accusing Valve of anything, other than presenting the likely scenario of how using monthly hardware and software survey in conjunction with data bought from Google went towards the development of the Steam Deck. If you cannot accept that as a plausibility that’s your problem not mine. The proof you keep getting your gaiters in a twist over could only come from corporate espionage or Valve themselves releasing to the public.

Picking my statement apart did you no favors in trying to prove your point. Honestly don’t know what your point is other than you’re mad I’m not on my knees gargling daddy Gabe’s balls as hard.

Well there’s the monthly hardware and software survey and whatever users didn’t willingly provide was probably bought from Google. I mean I wish I could find a source but it doesn’t take a genius to figure out how companies who want to sell you things would go about selling you things. I could if you ask nicely, give you a basic summary of how marketing data is used by entities seeking profit to R&D products and services.

We’re all voicing opinions. I chose mine and don’t begrudge yours.

What shit? As far as I can tell they are being completely transparent about their designs to acquire your data.

How exactly do you suppose a device like the Steam Deck even came to be? By harvesting user data, now Sony wants a seat at the table and suddenly they’re the fucking bogey man? Give me a break.

It’s likely that you and your friends are not indicative of the average user. I’m certainly not, the games I play are not reflective of what is popular in market.

It’s not pull of console franchises that would win people over but ease of access that will. It’s the whole reason consoles exist in the first place.

If we couldn’t stop micro transactions at horse armor we’re not stopping this. The lure of Sony exclusives is going to outweigh privacy concerns every day of the week.

You also have to understand that releasing on Steam is only short term action, the plan is going be to bring PSN to PC and to release Sony hardware to go with it. Steam has had it too good for too long and Microsoft’s aggressive moves over the past couple of years has forced Sony’s hand.

They’ve had the past 160 years to fill in some boring ass jobs to do that, the lure of money finally made them do it. My worldview doesn’t entertain the illusion that it truly matters whether you’re black, brown, yellow or white; only if you’ve got enough green to do whatever you want. So I’m going to have to disagree that this is a key piece of information.

The motion says that if approved, private donations would be used for the restoration of the school names and not by “the school system or government tax funds, though the SCPS will oversee disbursements relating to restoration costs,” according to [Thursday’s meeting agenda.]

This is all you need to know. Just need a little lubricant and the racist wheel keeps on turning.

It’s going to trickle down further, next it’s going to be employees at outsource facilities falsified records. I know someone who worked in the QA department for a company involved with the design and manufacture of certain parts of the fuel system and they are all currently shitting themselves.

I agree with you on many things but Speedy does not strengthen your argument. Regardless of your feelings on his portrayal of Mexican culture he has been wholly embraced and brought back to the air from cancellation by the same people Speedy purportedly denigrates.

First they come for your lawn, then they take your jobs and before you know it they’re turning your boys into girls to destroy the white whatever the small minded bigot in question thinks is the superior race.

/s

The sad irony is I’m being sarcastic but this is the core belief for way too many people out there.

edit: on further reflection of my choice of words I concluded that this is not a white vs black or brown problem, as nationalism and religious nationalism specifically, are not exclusive to delusions of race supremacy in the western world.

Not saying this won’t be incredibly lucrative once the tax dollars start rolling in but punishment can only make so much money. Give someone a thousand years exciting experience in 8 hours and people will gladly sell their remaining 16 for it.

The beans were great. As incoherent as they got it felt like someone was trying to post content so they got my upvotes. It can get pretty dead around here and I was glad for the change of pace. For a while there was nothing but AI prompt Sailor Moon art that was pretty entertaining too

Here’s to your good health mate. Hope you find yourself on the mend and some answers for what ails you. Not knowing can be as bad as the malaise in my experience.

Had an uncle drive himself to near insanity over a change in his body and while eventually the diagnosis came back terminal, the knowledge that he was right and all those who would not support his concerns had to eat their dismissals was a small comfort.
