This is cope meant to diminish the military feat accomplished by Hamas on October 7. “I was merely pretending to be incompetent.”

That’s actually pretty cool. I was born with one of my adult molars missing and always wished this was possible. Hope the results turn out positively.

The truly surprising thing about this is that they’re not instead discussing age of consent laws
When China does it it’s “dominating”. When America does it it’s “leading”.
I can’t wait to watch them fight over who would be the most unapologetic supporter of genocide.
Evangelicals don’t give a damn about Israel or Jews in general, so I don’t think he’s really taking their motivations or longevity into account. They (evangelicals) believe the existence of the nation of Israel and its subsequent total destruction are prerequisites for the Christian apocalypse/rapture. That’s his only goal. I sorta agree that viewing this through a “fascism” lens isn’t really helpful for understanding how people like Lindsey Graham think.
The only times I’ve ever seen itch.io
come up is when it’s being spammed on platforms like Discord to spread malware. I tend to avoid it personally, as that does not really inspire confidence.
That’s true, I kinda missed that part in the article. I agree that if it’s simply a matter of forcing Steam to comply with Vietnam’s regulations just like its competitors, then there’s nothing wrong with that. Perhaps that is why there’s been no official statement on either side, and hopefully they’re in the process of working it out.
That’s just a service issue, though. Steam can import CD keys from games that were bought outside of their ecosystem, I don’t know why a competing service couldn’t do the same with purchased Steam games (other than contracts with publishers etc.). I’ve at some point used most of the game stores that exist and I’ll be honest they all kinda suck. They don’t even give me the impression that they’re trying to be serious competition.
Maybe I’m just ignorant to Steam’s potentially anti-competitive business practices(?), but to me it just seems like there’s a lack of credible competition. I don’t know the situation in Vietnam specifically, but Steam’s arguably main competitor Epic Games Store still has to use every tactic at its disposal to try and win even a tiny slice of market share. Like exclusivity contracts (which are definitely anti-competitive and anti-consumer), and literally handing out games for free. Yet, people still choose to use Steam instead. Not arguing that Steam treats developers great or anything, but I don’t really think they go out of their way to shut competing platforms out of the market. Would love to be corrected on this if I’m way off base, though.
Juche Joe?
