derpgon, to games in Epic Games Admits In Court That Its PC Store Still Isn't Profitable

But, on the other hand, every other thing they did outweighs the rest - exclusivity, shitty launcher, and spyware.

I am also not sure if any game given away by Amazon Prime really interested me at all.

But all the other companies had in mind something else besides “gotta beat the other guys” and actually brought something to the table.

I mean, Steam is owned by Valve, and they make some pretty good games. Half-Life, Portal are some of the best series out there. I recently played HL Alyx and it was a banger.

I mean, it worked right?

Read the full paragraph:

Similar symptoms, which include sunburn and waking up to severe, burning eye pain, were reported in 2017 by partygoers who attended a Hypebeast event at The Landmark commercial complex also in Hong Kong, with the event’s DJ later discovering lighting used mainly for disinfection purposes had been installed at the venue. The Landmark venue did not feature on the ApeFest event plan, and the two incidents appear unrelated.

They also spread misinformation, kill people, and pollute the planet. I say we ban babies altogether, only adults are now allowed to be born! ^/s^

Me neither, but it’s my favorite one 😊

The only cables I buy are Ugreen. They do no break after a week, come in multiple lengths, and they don’t lie about specs.

A 100W 1m charging cable, for example, retails here for 13$, or 10$ when you buy from Aliexpress/Evay/Amazon via their official store.

Agreed シ

derpgon, to android in Does Google Inserting Deceptively Placed Ads in the Play Store seem icky to anyone else?

If you buying their products or paying for their services - absolutely yes. If you are just seeing them, then it’s free 🤣

But, seriously - uBlock Origin, AdGuard, PiHole, use FOSS, buy brands that do not advertise (or do not advertise as much), use services that are known because they are good, not because they advertise themselves.

It’s not feasible or possible to 100% this, let’s be real, but partially possible and helps fbe whole picture.

Remember, the end user is always the one paying for the ads. Either by the company making you pay more for their products (Apple) or taking bigger cuts from whatever they mediate (Uber, Doordash).

Should’ve been 100k, there were so many times they could’ve NOT done that, and yet they did, and so many people along the chain failed - they were testing what is possible and what they can get away with.

Don’t worry buddy, as a non-American I was confused aswell.
