Can’t wait to see what will happen when oil runs out and there’s been no preparation.

Trump is going to lose his shit on Bibi again and Bibi will shrug it off, won’t he?

You’re just imagining things. Keep consuming!

Is this the USA? What’s going on :O

People are still voting Reform. I love how they want to get fucked even harder. Good luck UK. You’re going to need it.

I hope Scotland quits the Union. They don’t have to suffer from the mistakes of the southerners.

But crossposting requires an account on the target instance, doesn’t it? I can’t crosspost on my peertube instance to a community in lemmy/piefed/mastodon/fedia can I?

He isn’t fooling anybody anymore. Everybody knows it a war that Russia’s losing. He’s just trying to save face. Maybe he will come up with some kind of excuse that NATO is too big and a real threat, so they must retreat and develop better defenses or something like that.

Well, I’m not buying Steam games anymore, so I’m doing my part 🤷

Need money for the war machine now, don’cha?

Shareholder benefit on the other hand…

All those stores just sell the game on steam, so we’re back to steam being the cheapest. This is why the lawsuit exists.

I looked at the examples you gave and in all of them, Steam has the lowest price . I added an example of Doom Eternal

Again, stopping them from being a monopoly isn’t the goal here. If it were, I don’t even know how they would approach it, because from what I can tell, Valve owns the market so much because it simply is good.

But yeah, Valve going bad would be a catastrophe for gaming.

Could you share an example of a deal that is less than on Steam? I couldn’t find one.

No need to put monopoly in quotes. Owning 85% of the market is a monopoly. Do you want them to reach 100% for you to go “yep, now it’s a monopoly, now we should do something”?

A monopoly doesn’t need monopolistic behaviour to be a monopoly. The monopolistic behaviour Steam has is what’s being targeted. If Steam were impeding competition in other ways, those would have to be dealt with too.

Just because you have a favourite friend, doesn’t mean they can’t do wrong.

One can only hope that they actually see the light, but my bet is it would be way too expensive (in terms of money and willingness to retrain) to switch to Linux and they’ll just shrug and continue. Hopefully I’m wrong.

What is going on with all these Microslop office alternatives not working together and attacking each other? They’re doing the job for Microslop.

Used both, never will again unless forced to.
