I believe that a lot of issues lile this would be solved with legalized sex work and the destigmaization of mental health treatments.
I'd rather remain comfortable not buying games from Ubisoft and EA.
I refuse to waste a single dollar on every game from both companies, since we were all bent over and continue to get bent over because they just don't care about anything but making more money.
A good example from Ubisoft is the handling of the Driver series. They kept on releasing the games in the series in a near unplayable state before when most people had dial up.
A good example with EA was the failed DRM with Spore. They only let you install the game 3 times, which glitched out to the point where people had to turn to piracy (warez and crackz) to play a game they paid for.
We vote with every dollar spent, which gives me hope when people rally around good companies that do the right thing.
This is exactly why I look at companies and corporations with a side-eye of doubt when they claim to have some sort of "do not be evil" motto baked into thier company culture.
It doesn't matter if a gigantic company has a hundred philanthropy focused CEOs, all ot takes is one greedy or evil one to destroy a company's dogma
After the investors, managers, and profiteers taste easy money, they will continue to demand to be fed that blood flavored stew.
Once that happens, they either need to be lobotomized or put down for the good of all lest those who are not in the know continue to put money into the frothing imitation it has become.
It wouldn't shock me if they removed ublock origin from the chrome store
At first, I thought the quality seemed "meh" because it was released so close after the masterpiece that was Baldur's Gate 3. Everyone had high expectations and that's a hard game to follow, I believed.
After removing myself from Baldur's Gate 3, I discovered that I was wrong. Starfield still a "meh" game when taken on its own.
My ex-wife was a cop. I've heard about tones of almost comedic levels of debauchery involving the police.
They love debauchery almost as much as they love expressing unearned power. (acab)
His last name is being used as a verb now from what I'm hearing
Its when you are delusionally confidet and try to do something but you mess it up so bad that it would have been better if you did NOTHING!
Friend 1: I'm the best cook ever! I'll make you the best meal!
Friend 1: Burns box mac and cheese
Friend 2: "You really Musked that up!"
This reminds me of the time that the movie XxX came out and it was difficult to find to pirate.
When you name yourself anything with a lot of X's then your search engine results are going to point to adult entertainment over the product
I worked for a popular VoIP who violated tons of my rights with my disability. My manager would get nosey, then he'd dock my pay when I took my paid FMLA. They were always harassing me about coming in despite my job being pretty much 100% remote. I got a doctor's note for it, and I would get harassed daily about if I was coming in
When I went to HR to complain, the next day my desk was trashed.
I sued them, but lost on a technicality because my lawyer moved office and they didn't get a piece of paperwork in time, despite putting in a proper change of address
So I pretty much got screwed
It's funny that he works for the US government and his name is A. Blinken
It sounds like a joke from Robin Hood: Men in Tights
It's ironic that there are over 60 blockable elements and such over Privacy Badger and Ublock origin on that page.
Oh well.. whatever. Never mind.
