Alabama is becoming a theocratic regime, just like Iran. That's terrifying.

Good. That site scared people from buying AMD cpus. Bon débarras

It's a slippery slope. Money talks. They are accountable to their shareholders. So when they saw that people were paying for them, they started to monetise more and more.

It is in the article.

Not a good comparison. With Steam, you download the games to your computer. If Valve ever went out of business, they could unDRM the games, or you could crack them.

Either way, you download the games onto your computer. That's not the case with Funimation.

I don't know if I'm the only one who feels this way, but the new design makes it look more like a social media site than a forum.

Buying a digital copy of something you cannot download is an oxymoron. It only makes sense if you subscribe to a service.

Women ages 18-29 were 40 percent more likely to be liberal in 2023, a slight decrease from 41 percent in 2022 and 44 percent in 2020, but still higher than the 30 percent in 2013. Those ages 65 and older were 25 percent more likely to identify as liberal — a slight increase from the 21 percent reported in 2013.

But women of that age group need to vote! Seniors turnout is historically higher than the younger age groups and that trend needs to change.

I'm not new to Lemmy. I was just venting my frustrating against this attitude.

I don't know why people are down voting you just because they don't like the government. The FTC legally fought this every step of the way: https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/cases-proceedings/2210077-microsoftactivision-blizzard-matter

Unfortunately, unlike Australia, Canada is not an Island. The USA influences us easily.

It's looks nice. I think you will enjoy KDE, we don't have to worry about extensions compatibility when upgrading to a new version of Gnome.

I guess it's a good investment to have peace of mind! /s

It is not. It is a demo. The company demonstrates the game to you. You're free to play it as long as you want so that you can make an informed decision afterwards.
