Ukraine wouldn’t be a “pawn” if Russia never invaded and kept to the treaties they made with NATO.

The west doesn’t have to authorize anything. Since Ukraine is a sovereign nation that can decide that themselves.

And they did, or do you think Moscow isn’t “deep” enough? https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/10/europe/ukraine-drone-strikes-moscow-intl/index.html

Sure, a puppet in a war on their own territory, that the other side invaded.

Ukraine wouldn’t be at war if Russia stayed in their borders.

Zelenskyy wouldn’t have need to be a “puppet” if there wasn’t a war in Ukraine.

So even if what you said was true, it is all putins fault.

But this is about the latest ones, that is the whole point.

Yes, and it is up to those users to decide that by themselves.

Your job is to keep your instance clean, and defederate when your users want to. Not to police other instances and force them to do your bidding. You have no authority there. It is up to those instance mods.

Sure, first interactions maybe. But not when they already spoke a bunch and went on a date.

Still much less mainstream than gaming.

An empty bag? That’s even worse!

Yes, buying from somewhere else and still being forced to install Steam just to be able to play it.

If both Microsoft and Apple didn’t put in the effort, then why did Microsoft win?

Good thing you have no say in that.

What? No.

One of the best things about Windows is the incredible huge support on how to fix things.

Maybe not on the Windows forum, about Microsoft software. But every other software is not a problem. Because Windows has such a huge userbase, it would be weird if you encountered a bug that nobody has ever encountered before. And tons of techies already posted several solutions to it.

And what did the horrible fanboys do? Boycott any dev who dared to accept an Epic deal.

So developers were forced to ditch Epic or lose sales.

There are also people using Steam who would very much rather not use Steam but need to because it is the only way to use given software. So many Steam exclusives.

I remember a time when I wanted to play Portal and the only thing in the physical box was a code and a Steam installer.

Just because it is a monopoly you like doesn’t mean it isn’t a monopoly.

Something like this?

Every media that allows you to be social, like interacting with other users, is a social media.

A movie is not, but a news website that allows comments is, any forum is as well.

Don’t let others convince you with arbitrary conditions just because they don’t like that their favourite media is a social media.

Most countries don’t have tax software.

They have a website usually. A free one, from the government. That calculates their taxes for them. You just have to check if it is correct from your side.

Antiviruses

You mean like 90% of all posts in linuxmemes?

Unless Apple decides the software is too old and isn’t allowed to work anymore.

Portal 1 literally has a line on the floor you are supposed to follow, and only a handful of items in each room you can interact with.

Then there is also that you are only allowed to place a single color in the beginning. Limiting your options.

Almost like a good game explains the mechanics and actually helps the player grasp the concept of the game over a period of time, before throwing them into the deep end.
