In b4 some judge in Texas steps in.

Ravenous Red ...

That's it? Twitter is going to be sad it lost it couch cushion money.

They threaten/shit down the government every other issue... Like a toddler having a tantrum.

Forced arbitration should be outlawed in all forms. If it was possible to amend the bill of rights (given our current political bullshit) we should the have the right to a fair trail for all matters.

This is ridiculous.

Who the fuck cares what's with this constant desire to try and shit on steam

I think people often hate steam for their success, but fail to see it's the result of customers'choice in a free market. (I see it enough I'm not sure if people get paid to hate on them... To ruin the thing they have most of customer respect)

Steam is not publicly traded and does not act like every other publicly traded company. It invests in its customers experience and custtomer come back for that. It does not nickel in dime or use its position to hold its customer captive and enshitfify its product. It's not an ISP...

It invests in hardware and software development it believes the industry needs not to make a massive profit but to be a champion of what gaming should be (Linux, steam link, index, bug picture, steam controller, steam deck) These products are experimental and usually sold at or near cost not to make money but to prove to the market there is a need and a demand.

They are often a champion and voice of the gamer.

They could have tried to be like Bethesda and tried to monetize their workshop but they didn't.

Sometimes they're quiet and we don't hear anything about what they're working on, but that doesn't mean they aren't working on things.

I can't imagine pc gaming would have survived and resurged without steam. And I hate to think what it would be like if there were just 5 epics, origin, Uplay, whatever other launcher. I think gaming would look like mobile games..,.. which takes a 30% cut too and can only sell in apple or android markets.... No one bitches there and they offer no services.

Love when elected officials don't show up why is it the chairs are almost always all empty

"Did the federal government make a change for the benefit of the people, and might be an inconvenience to business.... never fear there's a judge in Texas to stop it and later when it gets appealed to the supreme court overturned!"

Why do I feel like we are held hostage by judges lately? Aren't they supposed to be unbiased and apolitical. Seems to me they should lose their appointment if they can be shown to have political motivation/ baises

I get nothing. Google is all pissy I turned off history and refuse to use their app. So they refuse to suggest anything.

The upside is no bloat and no ads, just have to know a topic.

Jesus, how many years have the courts had to ponder if he is immune. At least 7? And you still don't have a fucking answer and we still going to let him hold this shit up with the same old bullshit.

Why doesn't it go the other way. Sorry dude you don't get in any ballots till you're cleared of insurrection.

Why don't we rage and protest like the French ,why is it always so acceptable that those in power never face consequences...

And yet all these people calling in threats will never face consequences.
