Did Pythagoras even know about sin, cos and tan? I am reluctant to call A^{2 +B}2 =C^2 trigonometry.

Hipparchus, the alleged founder of trigonometry, was alive 350 years after Pythagoras (500BC to 150BC).

I would like to know about ASS, too.

Doing my best to change this. I am extremely toxic without engaging in political behavior.

I have no idea what that means.

When you live in the countryside, you have to spend several hours getting the bath house ready. During the summer you can go for a swim and it's just as convenient as showering.

In winter however... Washing yourself takes effort.

They're certainly hot enough to cook rice, though.

Will I suppose that's where we gotta disagree then. I cannot ever imagine exclusivity deals going away. Unless we somehow manage to get a government-subsidized middleman to track and enforce parity, you'll always have platforms attracting prospective developers with exclusivity deals. Then you don't have to compete with pricing at all!

As for your last point, I believe most gamers would tell any company charging for downloads to fuck off. But I can see this actually happening in the future.

You would have a platform to trade games, and another to keep them. The trading platform will be able to undercut the holding platform due to practices such as exclusivity deals. This, in turn, will make the holding platform require a commission fee whenever a game is transferred to it.

If you could get a game for free in the Epic store and transfer it to Steam, where does Steam get the money from?

Also it used to be fast, but got bloated and lost its greatest advantage. They abandoned every design choice that made them popular in the first place.

Then those games would be subject to Gresham's law LMAO. I would never trust a company that allows transfers between platforms.

Simple. When you license your show to a streaming platform, it is more lucrative to put in an arbitrary end date on the off-chance the platform decides to renew the license. Consumers have no say in this so they just have to take what is given.

Want to stream it forever? Be prepared to pay an exorbitant amount of money because the showrunnere REALLY don't want that.

They knew what they were doing.

But good would we go about getting rid of those invasive species? They can just use a VPN making any societal pressure we put out pointless.

I like to think of them as IPv6 addresses. You just don't.

Shuffle--->skip--->skip--->skip.

There's your problem. You don't believe that a popular song is inherently better. That disqualifies Spotify from viable music aggregators because it only has the popular stuff.

Not Pawlexander? Weak.

I'm afraid you're shit out of luck. Jessica is already an elongated name. If it were something like Jess, you could use Jessilda.

What about when both are massively different?

Feint - Starscapes and Feint - Starscapes (Rameses B remix) don't sound similar to me at all, for instance. The original is too generic and uninspired.
