I saw them die and I stopped the guy by reporting him. I didn’t lie.

Here in the Netherlands I spend 80 euros on 10kg of cat food (kibble).

I don’t know about rodents, but I know seagulls explode. When fed bread drenched in coke, their stomach explodes. I had a colleague in the navy who thought this was funny. Someone who tortures animals and is allowed to handle guns… At least I got him into trouble which forced him to stop harming seagulls.

See? Same hight.

I’d say that’s a reasonable price for dog food.

Seeing the amount of micro penis compensating trucks in the US, I’m not surprised

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

Fat in general

They are the assholes, they are the ones providing the shit.

I could snort 5 grams in one weekend, so yeah, overpriced.

Which is like a physical copy of the game. But if the game is only online and the servers go down, you own an installer of a non-functioning game.

I have over 500 games on steam. If the platform dies, that would be a major loss for me.

Honestly, platforms like steam and Netflix made me stop pirating. But with the increasing amount of streaming services, with increasing prices and more and more limitations and loss of rights, loads money grab junk content, I dusted off me old pirate hat. I am a paying usenet user, I automated all my movie and TV show downloads, I pirate games first and only buy them when they are worth it. I use Grayjay to view YouTube, because it has more freedom than a premium user.

I’m happy to pay for stuff which is good, I refuse to pay for junk, limitations and loss of my rights.

I think they are realizing. It’s why they are looking to sell assets to China I assume. Source

Anything you buy on Steam is also not owned by you, you only buy the rights to play their game for as long as they allow you to. Just like with Ubisoft.

Although ubisoft is a shit company, don’t think it’s the only one. Every game you bought on Steam, Origin and Epic aren’t your property either. You just bought the right to play their game for as long as they allow you to.

If you truly want to own your products, buy on GoG (you will get the offline installer as a download) or pirate. Because when you pirate, you have more rights and benifits than a paying customer.

Companies don’t even care anymore, it’s just a money grab with the newest bug simulator. As soon as the first purchase bubble ended, the project is abandoned and people are stuck with a piece of junk they do not even own.

In the exceptional case a dev truly delivers, like indie studios or Larian studio, the game dev world goes mental as it shows how corrupt and fucked up they are.

Support the few proper devs, pirate the rest. I pirate everything these days and when the game is good I’ll buy it.

Doing nothing is ignorant compliance.

It may be a meme, but the US is both a joke and a train wreck run by incompetent clowns and scam artists. The easiest way to describe a dystopia is the US because even though the country was already extremely fucked up, Americans continue to find ways to make it even worse beyond anyone’s imagination. I wonder when Joe Exotic becomes president and by law everyone needs to have a pet tiger. It wasn’t possible because he’s in jail, but since recently convicted criminals are allowed to become president. Or maybe it will continue to head towards The Handmaid’s Tale. Let’s place bets!

Well, many Americans indeed are illiterate, and this is going to become even worse with Trump and DOGE destroying the education system. But the current system is shit as well, the level of education lacks behind compared to other western countries by far. And then there’s the unregulated homeschooling in many states, which religious nut jobs, flat earthers and other conspiracy idiots love to do. Most Americans only speak one language and only learn about the US and it’s history while skipping the rest of the world. Many don’t even know where the UK is on a world map. Even your vice president didn’t know where Greenland was, that it’s close to the north pole and fucking cold. There are loads of videos of interviews with random people on the street where the average person can’t even tell how many sides a triangle has.

In the movie Idiocracy they predict the world to be extremily dumb in the year 2505 but Americans probably thought this was a goal to work towards, and had trouble reading “2505” and thought it was 2025.

This is the opposite of hangouts with my friends. Why would you come by car, you cannot drink then. All my friends come by bike. Cycling while drunk is no issue, as long as there’s proper cycling infrastructure like in The Netherlands where I live. Sometimes there’s someone stupid enough to come by car, they have to pay 7 euros per hour parking fees and have to stay sober all night. But most of my friends don’t even have a car and live within 2km cycling distance. Others who live further away take the train.
