If this is a strawman, where is the anti-competitive behaviour in this deal?
A history of anti-competitive choices should not be resolved by undoing some random, unrelated choice. The only reason they would have to block Microsoft’s acquisition is if it was anti-competitive.
In the entertainment industry, there are not a lot of real competitors, if any.
I can’t think of any scenario where Microsoft makes something, and any reasonable human would think "well, it’s too bad Activision Blizzard isn’t still making games on their own, it sure would have increased the quality of "
Your “freeze peach” only has to do with your government. You keep pointing out corporations aren’t people as if that had anything to do with this topic, but until you start paying taxes and owning land through Facebook, it’s a non-sequitur.
Jeff’s answer was more direct and to the point, but I’d like to point out that as a straight dude, he turned one character in a lesbian relationship into a man. He wasn’t turning characters’ sex towards the player.
I’m not claiming that the law governs this under free speech. I simply think that free speech is worthless if it’s only in places that go ignored.
So why are you forcing Nexus Mods to host this content? What does this have to do with “corporations aren’t people”? Why even bring that comment up?
If a company is thousands of people, what is private about it?
This is just more non-sequiturs. First off, private in this context is privately owned. It doesn’t matter how many people work for them, nor how “secret” a “secret” is if you tell it to everyone (which isn’t a “secret” to begin with). Second off, Nexus Mod’s work force, including community management, is thirteen people.
What you think your free speech should mean, and what you think your country should do with mass media/popular social media has no basis in this conversation.
Found this while looking around, he either did or did not say it in an interview with The Guardian in 2001, but it was also said by some people a few years earlier.
I’m not entirely convinced, having read the quote from The Guardian in an interview they did with Miyamoto, you’d think that’d be proof enough. People in the associated Twitter thread really decided that it was just unsourced.
Yeah… We can look through modlogs and call out your bullshit, too, you know. Calling Xi Jinping Winnie the Pooh isn’t remotely racist nor transphobic. It started in China, from Chinese people, to a Chinese leader. It has nothing to do with race nor sexual orientation, nor is it even remotely close.
Your stupid accusations make so much sense when I see you are from hexbear, though 😂
You’re just not willing to be rational or reasonable at all because you care more about your petty and stupid political agenda than you do about the truth.
Tell us more about all the mass bear sprayings that kill so many Americans every year. Rational and reasonable my ass. God, you are so fucking stupid AND not self aware.
I thought the FMHY lists showed sites that hosted themselves, not just peer posted files. If this was happening regularly with such a site, I’d eject it, too.
Also, the information provided sates plainly that this is far from the first time, but their lack of response or efforts to stop malware is what triggered the removal from the list. FileCR should plainly not be on the trusted list.
For me, a year or two back, AnyDesk turned into TeamViewer, started to block me because they decided I was secretly a business operating for free. I didn’t use TeamViewer before, but I heard that is what happened.
And I only have a laptop and a PC that I connect to a from with.
Yeah, I only know because when AnyDesk did it to me, I searched online and found people describing moving to AnyDesk from TeamViewer for the same issue, and that they then had to find another new solution.
I actually switched to Chrome Remote Desktop, but most people here would recommend against it. It also gives me problems, so it definitely isn’t special.

What is stupid about that solution? You don’t see people whining about going to every other update over the years. Valve has made huge bounds forward, and people who want to play legacy versions of games usually have to install manually.
Steam still connects you to custom servers, and Valve still allows you to download the server hosting software. The part that went offline- rather, moved to CS2, was the matchmaking client.
The workarounds to WC3 require you to leave Blizzard designed software to third party support. I don’t recall WC3 ever having matchmaking, but the server browser and hosted game list were taken completely.
It’s the same fucking product. It’s a new engine. We’ve been waiting for source 2 in CS for years. Dota 2 got treatment early, and despite the toxic culture it has, it still didn’t generate idiots like you. When they added the revolver did you also spend weeks whining that they removed the old CSGO and that you could never go back?
Everyone puts old builds in “betas” if they are available, so clearly not stupid- which you didn’t defend, you just restated as if it was a fact. They never “took it away”, they updated the game, and they left the old content available.
The fact that you think you are explaining anything while constantly spouting the lie that “they took it away” is moronic and obnoxious.
They didn’t really “kill” CSGO, though. You can still play it. Just no matchmaking.
Asking people to give up their skins in CSGO and go to a new game was never going to happen. Instead they made a patch and generated hype for the game as a new name, while supporting Source 1 servers. To think that if they didn’t do a name change, people wouldn’t be whining so much.
Great, so you are not just an absolute moron, you’re a hipster, too. Am I supposed to care?
So you are looking to cry at the top of your lungs about anything you can see, but even though Valve allowed you to play an old version of the game, you start whining that their support “isn’t convenient enough”? Dota 2 went from Source 1 to Source 2, had gameplay changes, everything sans a name change, but that goes under your notice. Valve changes “CSGO” to “CS2” with a big update, and suddenly your brain overloads and you throw tantrums.
The gameplay is closer to the last version of CSGO was than that same version of CSGO to a few years earlier.
The game modes are closer to the last version of CSGO than CSGO had at launch.
Valve is still working on it, we knew not everything would be here. But, once again, you clearly don’t care. You called it stupid, when I pointed out it was convenient, you just repeated that it was asinine. When I pointed out that this has more backwards compatibility than any of the other DOZENS of CSGO updates, you ignore it, because it goes against your stupid made up argument that you repeat ad nauseum, wailing like a child.
tl;dr you aren’t even a troll, just a waste of space and time claiming to be a human being. Get blocked idiot, lol
Indeterminate forms come from limits. It’s not the question you asked, and I think this answer was a little off the mark because of it. For the sake of shared knowledge, I will explain anyways:
When looking at a limit, it’s important to note that you aren’t working with zero (or infinity, or any number you are studying the limit of), what you are working with are numbers approaching the limit. For example, for (x+1)/(x), the expression has no equivalent value at x=0, as 1/0 does not exist. We can see why if we use the limit as x approaches zero. The numerator will approach 1, and the denominator approaches 0. The numerator has little impact on the value of the expression, but the denominator… dominates the value, for the pun. And, while we can’t evaluate at 0, we can put really small numbers in there and see what happens- and what happens is the expression becomes incredibly large. I’m sure that if you don’t see where this is going, you can go to Desmos or some other graphing calculator and try it for yourself.
As far as the indeterminate form- 0/0 is always undefined, at least in most mathematics. However, if you were to look at equations :
y = x/x
y= x^2^/x
y= x/x^2^
you’ll see the curves behaving differently around x=0. The first makes 0/0 look like 1, the second makes 0/0 look like 0, and the last will make 0/0 look like infinity*. Once again, note, however: 0/0 does not exist, and there is discontinuity on all of these curves at x=0.
*Edit: or negative infinity, I forgot that this limit doesn’t exist. Even though the limit doesn’t exist, it is still a useful example.
