Almost none of it is created to stoke anti-feminist attitudes, but it is certainly spread to do so.

There was this great tumblr post a couple years ago that I can't seem to find anymore about how when feminists spread phrases like 'all men are trash', even if in context it doesn't seem offensive or bigoted, people who dislike feminism will spread it to people offended by it without the additional context and say "look, see! Feminists hate all men! They hate you! Why would you as a man want to help people who hate you unconditionally?!", and unfortunately the people most vulnerable to that type of manipulation are teenage boys, who aren't exactly likely to seek out the context that's been removed

The dude on the bottom commissioned various artists to draw characters buying wonderbread, eating wonderbread, attending a theme park dedicated to wonderbread, as well as other things involving wonderbread that I can't quite remember, thus earning the moniker "Wonderbread dude"

Also NAL, but it seems like they aren't arguing for server functionality but rather just the ability to play offline at all, which opens up the third option of requiring games to be patched to remove sever requirements if being shut down, in any case this will be a fascinating case to follow, and I hope they go through with the lawsuit.

IQ is also a greatly flawed measure of intelligence, I score higher than people I know are much much smarter than me.

I also score higher when I take ADHD medicine, does it make me smarter? Fuck no, its just easier to test.

What is with all the leniency the courts are giving him? It feels like every month its "Judge orders Trump to stop doing thing he was ordered to stop doing several times already", if I acted that way in any trial I guarantee I would be charged for contempt of court

Not gonna happen, what everyone is calling "AI" isn't even actually AI, its just a type of predictive text

Probably a controversial opinion but companies should not be able to own residential real estate at all, the reason most people cant get a house is because big companies are buying them up with limitless sums of money so they can rent them out infinitely, its not a free market when the big company will pay 20% over your entire life savings just to make sure you don't own anything.

Exactly! I'd put money on a group abusing it, admitting to abusing it, and the game devs still being charged in the near future.

That clarification makes it even worse, this is obviously an attempt to push free to play or indie games out the window while making major bank.

The fraud detection will not help at all to prevent abuse especially in cases like steam family sharing where other "users" won't have to pay to install the game!

There's literally no reason to charge per game install here, the only possible reason is greed
