  • Yeah it sucks. But those of us paying attention, and have a basic grasp on history, know what the alternative is. See Florida for a microcosm.

    Running candidates that nobody thinks will ever win everybody knows will lose, in a first past the post system, that will only siphon votes away from the one candidate that can prevent that fascism from fully taking hold of the nation, for pride is not only incredibly ignorant and short-sighted, but it also ignores what third parties (particularly progressive ones) do to electoral counts.

    This isn't a fucking game, and it's not a joke. The wolf is at the door, we don't have the luxury to be throwing away votes on Cornell fucking West.

    If you want to vote third party, get ranked choice voting. Until then, get with reality, or vote third party and take responsibility for ushering in the end of our Republic. Your choice.

  • Hilariously, the data don't back them up, my wife does research on this very topic for a company. The dollar signs do though, they have to justify the property expenditures.

    No. That's sunk cost fallacy.

    If they've already bought and paid for the buildings, they are not losing more money by not using them.

    In fact, they probably save money on things like maintenance, overhead, security on physical sites when they're not being used. They could also be renting those spaces out, or straight up selling.

  • And Sonic Boom deserves to be higher than it because...?

  • Sure... Maybe not number 1 (I think Arcane may have been better), but below Sonic Boom? Yeah, no.

  • A lot of the development for Proton has also been community-based. Aside from whatever Steam has done to directly improve Proton, just creating the Steam Deck, and SteamOS has brought so much more attention and focus to improving it to an extent that probably wouldn't have happened otherwise. It gave people a reason to volunteer their time to improve it.

  • Ooohhh fanboys doing (presumably) unpaid PR work in the comments!

    Does this mean lemmy has "made it"?

  • Have you ever browsed the Nintendo eShop? It's like 50% shovelware.

    If they have a screening process for their shop, it's absolute trash.

  • Why would they protect their competitor's IP without formal request?

  • people remember that games are supposed to be good

    I've played a lot of great games in the past few years 🤷‍♂️

  • But I thought it was the left that's indoctrinating children?

    That's what they need to convince their base in order to get them to support their indoctrination schemes. They've convinced so many people that simply teaching science and history is leftist indoctrination, and they need to combat it with their own propaganda.

  • Reader mode is clutch for getting around paywalls. I'm just waiting for the day it suddenly stops working.

  • Now it would be rude if you didn't watch all of them lol

  • Might be easier to just list the billionaires who haven't sent Clarence Thomas on a luxury vacation.

  • Because America is a third world country with shiny veneers
