I was going to make a joke about how I wanted a Jurassic Park movie but with AI because this comic mimics the quote from Jeff goldblum. But then I remember that Westworld already exists

Ironically cutting him out of the movies like this sort of adds to his mythology

I don’t even think Google has a search Monopoly. They might have a maps Monopoly. But even Apple competes with them pretty heavily on that. (Before I’m personally given my own goddamn cross to hang from, I hate google)

Yeah I think the joke is that these are actually all CIS men

Censorship on my Lemmy? It’s more likely than you think

It’s not his job to feed the world either. That’s our goddamn government’s job. He puts money where he wants. That’s the system we live under and we can fix that and change it but until we do denigrating this one man out of all the evil billionaires is kind of strange.

He also funds a Marine research facility that maps the ocean floor and gives scientists access to deep sea diving tools and submarines. He donates to charity occasionally, to the tune of hundreds of thousands to millions. What have you done other than complain on the internet?

You need to understand the propaganda machine’s in full swing. There are enemies online that pretend to be your allies and they slowly turn your opinions. You’re being brainwashed.

Gabes goals are twofold. Make money for himself and those under him and improve the PC game space.

He does both both unapologetically and without secrets or shady shit. Honestly, it’s not his responsibility to fix the world. It’s ours collectively. He does his small part to improve what he can. He saw a need and he does his best to fill it. And at the same time he pays his workers the highest wages in the entire industry. Most people who work at valve are millionaires.

I believe billionaires need to be taxed out of existence but this one is not the one that we need to hang first

That’s fair. Everybody’s body is a bit different I suppose. I would totally be doing more stretches in your case though.

This fixes it instantly every time for me. Ignore everybody else. When you get that cramp start moving your foot in the opposite direction pointing your toes towards your knee and stretch out the back of your ankle. Instant cramp relief everytime.

If you have cramping often like this then maybe dedicate yourself to some hamstring stretches.

You’re a cis people dumbass

Nike actually did make those. they sell them.

I’m also drawn to 7. But when I’m feeling myself I’m obviously a 6

We’ve all trained in the most robust flight simulator known to man.

Makes sense. DVD was the defacto standard of physical media for a time. Its an afterthought now. Why make the best rewriteable DVD when mid quality rewritable DVD sell just fine in 2026

Enable single window mode.

Steam itself still asks your age before verifying any purchase. This is a parenting problem.

By the way, steam actually offers parental controls and family accounts to manage purchasing decisions and the like. If you’re so worried about your children, then maybe be involved in their life and pay attention to them and what they’re doing?

There, your logic breaks down when you say kids can then redeem the items for money within the same platform. First off, the very nature of making purchases on steam requires you to be 18 or have parental consent. Also people cannot exchange the goods on steam for USD only steam points. Steam points are not dollars and cannot be transferred back into USD or any other currency. You have to go through a third-party website to do that and valve has cracked down on those websites in the past. This is up to further legislation further up the pipe to curb this problem.

Also, I want it to be clear to everybody reading this. That steam does require developers to list steam keys STEAM KEYS at the same price they sell them on steam. Developers can mint steam keys for free.

You see this policy is in place because if someone were to start selling steam keys on a platform that wasn’t steam suddenly, steam will not see any profits off those disproportionate sales because they weren’t made on the platform. And once word gets out that it’s cheaper somewhere else nobody will buy it on steam. And then steam is then responsible for all bandwidth now and forever into perpetuity for all of those users downloads and updates.

Many developers have actually tried this look up facepunch. They tried to sell steam keys outside of steam to get all the profit. They decided that it was ultimately worth the cost to just go through steam because hosting their own sales and refunds and support network for their game was too much. Even with the piggybacking off of steam’s bandwidth. By the way, facepunch is worth millions. Steam just provides a good fucking deal.

If you wanted to have your own storefront that sold your game exclusively without steam keys. You could list it to whatever price you fucking wanted. Even if you were selling it on steam for more. But if you want the bandwidth and support network that comes with the steam deal, then you have to follow their terms of service. Go figure.

Anyway, I’m done listing the obvious.

Which can’t be purchased with steam points. What’s your point?

They aren’t supporting children gambling. Every game listed in lawsuit is rated M. They ask you your age before you buy these games and before you put in any payment information into steam. It’s not verified with an ID or anything but that is a whole nother can of worms in computing that will open up a box we do not want to open. Also, you can’t even fucking buy anything on steam without a debit card. Which by the way you need to be 18 to have unless you have parental consent.

The solution here is more parenting. The solution here is to go after gambling culture as a whole. The solution here is to take down polymarket. The solution here is to make it so that gambling is not the main fucking commercial during our super bowl halftime.
