State subsidies and a huge protected home market.
But to be fair, they really made the most of it. So absolutely also talent.

Yeah farming or mining whatever you can do.
They sell everything for real money, complete accounts with upgraded characters, or rare items or whatever has value in a game.

Interesting. How was this data extracted?
AFAIK Linux is not doing well in China, and China has been known to skew the Steam stats a lot before. China uses bots heavily on Steam for mining in games.
Anyways it's cool that we can see Linux is doing well on Steam now, despite influential factors like China.

It would be interesting to see the amount of purchases made on Linux vs other operating systems. I think that's the number that counts more than anything else.

could all just as well come from an autocracy.

Isn't it?

Maybe read again, 14 states have 16 year as the age of consent.
Where does it say 14 year? The part you quote CLEARLY says STATES!!

WTF? And where is 14 years state law? That's a slippery slope argument.

Except the supreme court is breaking with many decades of legal practice.
I'd argue the current supreme court has been stacked to follow a political agenda over upholding the law. Which makes the supreme court itself illegal in their practice of the law.
Which is why it is insane that Americans have kept allowing this since George Bush! To a point where the system now is completely broken.

Yes

OK that's really enough said.

I was interested in girls my age +/- one year

As are most at that age, except it would have to be +, because if you go minus 1 at 16, it's illegal! But you do not present any real argument only your opinion.

But really that wasn't what I meant at all, what I was referring to was the ability to decide for yourself at the age of 16. Which most countries find you can.

Considering he is above the age of consent it is obviously NOT pedophilia.
If she had been a neighbor it would be legal. The reason it isn't is because she is a figure of authority. Which technically from a legal perspective makes it rape.
In 14 US states it is actually legal!!

Are you really saying 14 states have legalized pedophilia?
Do you even remember how it is to be 16?

My sister has been happily married to her husband who is 15 years older than her for 30+ years, are you saying my brother in law is a pedophile because of the age difference?

You are judgemental and pushing your norms on other people. And it's disgusting you have so many upvotes!

I had decided to resign from this debate, but some of the comments here, like yours are just so far beyond what lawmakers have decided in by far the most countries it's insane. Are you also considering LGBT immoral?

It's wrong yes, but the term pedo should be reserved for when it's justified, which it isn't here.

Considering I linked the info from wikipedia, this must be the stupidest comment in this thread.
Age of a consent is a common thing in all countries, but the age is different.

The article says Mac sales are declining too.
Apparently most of the decline is people that are simply ditching their PC because they don't need it anymore.

.

But they have not been enforced since Trump became president. And obviously Russia doesn't give a fuck, they are already sanctioned. And Hungary doesn't give a fuck either, they have shown that very clearly, and Orban and Trump are pals, and I'm pretty sure Trump would be very happy to give Orban permission if he asked.

But in the end US sanctions against Russia have been void since Trump became president because they have not been enforced.

It only works if either party gives a shit. But Russia doesn't give a shit about sanctions, if they can find a willing fool to either buy or supply they don't care. Hungary doesn't seem to care either, and that's the reason it doesn't make sense.

Apart from that there are no US threats against anybody dealing with Russia since Trump became president. All American sanctions against Russia have been void for half a year now. Which makes the story make even less sense.

Congress is trying to change that except not really, because they are waiting for the go ahead from Trump, which allegedly he gave yesterday. Or did he? We don't really know, because American politics are all about gas lighting.
