Except you can’t make Steam offer their content offline like that. By altering the language they use it effectively makes them more transparent about what you are really paying for. So, in order to use the word “buy” or “purchase” they would have to make the content available offline, or they have to use a different word that essentially means “rent” or “subscribe” cause that is what is actually happening.

Was the panel listed as “adults only”? Lots of kids were watching the pilot on YouTube. I’d say a substantial volume of its audience is 8 to 12 year olds.

A bit judgy aren’t we?

Wikipedia is not a source. Literally anyone can edit it to say anything at any time.

It would be nice if boomers and older Gen Xers would stop cashing out and then blaming millennials and zennials for the inflation being out of control and the economy not being the monolith it was in the 1980’s. You know, the 80’s during which that little tech boom thing happened right around the time a famous actor got elected president and immediately started de-regulating everything under the sun so that huge corporations could start squeezing employees and consumers like the chattel they are, thereby inflating the value of goods, services, and land.

Americans have been known to throw down with a printer on occasion.

Meanwhile in Iran… ರ⁠_⁠ರ

Did you know that spelt bread is actually pretty tasty. Especially when toasted.

AIPAC and organisations like stopantisemitism have made it their mission in this world to ensure that there is no public distinction between Jewish people as a whole and the nation of Israel.

Does Israel really think people are that stupid?

Looking at their propaganda, yes. Yes they do. And their super PACs ensure that the politicians they’ve pocketed parrot the same lines they say.

it makes a lot of sense and I’m not sure how that could change

It will change when the cancer finally kills that bastard.

Ask the Ukrainians what they think. It’ll be amusing to see how they flounce you.

Giving in to tyranny is voluntary slavery.

She literally quit when she was told she had a failing liver that could not recover. Just to be clear, there is absolutely no way in hell that she didn’t know she was on the way to killing her liver with her drinking because there are a plethora of signs long before you get to the point where alcohol has destroyed your liver beyond its own ability to repair itself. (Which is incredibly prodigious. The liver is the single most regenerative organ in the human body)

So forgive me if I’m skeptical that she really would have stopped being an alcoholic after she received a liver transplant.

IMO this was a tragedy of her own making and the money and effort in transplanting a liver would have been a complete waste. (Even one offered by her SO.) Especially when there is such a deficit of available organs and the surgeons who do the transplanting are needed for patients who aren’t likely to go back on the sauce 6 months later.

Philosophical question: Can socialism and capitalism coexist?

Purely hypothetical.

Thankfully I don’t use that garbage service.

I expect the usage of VPNs in Texas to skyrocket exponentially in the next couple of months.

Oh no you have turned the tables on me! 😱

My words are meaningless now!!!

Here’s an idea, why don’t you save your argument for one of the myriad posts that have popped up discussing this very subject of whether or not cats can eat vegan or not and whether or not that is abuse.

But here and now within this post is a discussion over whether or not mods acted recklessly and whether or not there is a need for better guidelines on what is and isn’t allowed. Which were discussed in the post that you apparently didn’t read.

At no point did the author of this post open up the floor to discuss whether or not veganism is good, bad, or ugly for cats.

The comments in here are unbelievable. This post was about the systemic moderation issues that lead to the incident, the team’s response to it, and how to deal with such a problems in the future.

Half the comments: CATS CAN’T EAT VEGAN

The other half: CATS CAN TOO EAT VEGAN

There are people here who need to go back to fucking reddit.
