Yeah, I’m with you. The entitlement around media (games movies TV) is insane to me.

You do realize those are usually exclusive for only a year, right? So EGS pays them out for a year of exclusivity and then the devs are free to launch on steam and others.
The thing is, often if they don’t get that first infusion of cash from a deal with EGS (or another investor) they don’t get to complete or even launch the game at all. So it never would make it to the other markets.
They tried to stand impartial (my most generous interpretation of reddits in-action towards the donald) and it really fucked them.
It’s so weird how many platforms cater to harmful rhetoric in an effort to stay neutral only for them to later ban the community after the damage has been done.
If I were more conspiratorial I’d suggest the Donald survived for as long as it did on purpose and with the explicit support of the reddit admins/execs…
As someone who leans agnostic, I would say this is a strawman argument. Unicorns and religions/gods are not related.
Could you elaborate on which? I’ve seen a lot of sketchy reviews recently
FYI, lots of people have different grocery needs so a broad statement like “grocery trips are $N these days” is pretty meaningless without the context of your purchases or needs.
A better example might be “my grocery bills are up 50% this year with no changes to what I buy!!”
My grocery budget has changed the last few years, but from $65 average to now $85 average. That said the supplemental food I buy (occasional orders out, etc) has risen significantly more, probably upwards of +60% at times.
Fastmail supports aliases as well. I’m not sure how they are from a privacy side overall tho
Yeah, is almost like shaming people for driving smaller vehicles is dumb. Turns out there are a lot of different needs.
Sorry to hear that. I hope you get to sleep next to your wife and dogs soon.
I mean the game came out in 2012. It’s not really that absurd to base ones licensing contracts for 14 years when the medium (games) generate the vast majority of their revenue in the first months.
Most digital products have an end of life. I agree that the whole digital ownership part isn’t fair, but I don’t think a 14 year selling window due to licensing is the part to be mad at.
That’s kind of hilarious since 20 years ago, western gamers were rejecting games for being “too anime.”
Today too! I’m still not really interested in the anime art style. I’m glad the enjoyers do have lots to choose from though.
Rae Drummond has a reported net worth of approx $65m as of last year.
The top 1% of United States net worth starts at $12m. She is just inside the top 0.1% of us net worth which starts at $62m.
That’s an incubator!
Fastmail also offers this.
Curious to know how many others do as well.
Fwiw they’re just collecting a paycheck. Sure it’s scummy for them to not reject the businesses offering them the money but tbh I really don’t blame them - I’d probably take the cash too.
Depending on the channel size sponsored ad reads can deliver upwards of multiple thousand per video for the creator. If you see multiple channels with the same ads, it’s bc the company advertising got a big budget approved, that’s it.
Imo just skip the ad reads (or get sponsorblock) and forget they exist. Usually the creator doesn’t even give a fuck who’s paying them or why. They are victims of the system too, not maliciously peddling garbage. I do wish they didn’t have to peddle anything, but here we are.
