Also, no 3rd person camera, so you’d only see your character in inventory screen.

That’s why you ride bikes, d’uh!

And just like that we’re at silly made up hypothetical situations to drive fear and an agenda. That’s not even worth entertaining.

It’s all hypothetical until it isn’t anymore. You’re literally the slowly boiled frog.

I would appreciate not being lied to. Call it “I can’t beelieve it’s not Honey”, write the proper list of ingredients on the back and I’m fine with it.

They said that about steam and look at us now.

It’s people flocking to it until it’s the only place to release games that is gonna force you.

They don’t know how bookmarks work.

Because Microsoft bribed them by moving their German HQ there.

The “loosing hair where I want it to grow and growing it where I definitely don’t want it to grow” thing.

You also have to tell him that GOD actually wrote it.

“That thing we wrote says the land is ours, so of course it is. Why don’t these filthy savages believe in that thing we wrote?”

What baby? In game purchases? That’s not a baby, that’s a big shit somebody took in your tub. If transparency is too hard to implement, publishers should feel free to get rid of them altogether.

As far as I remember, the US interpreted “their end of the deal” differently than NK did.

That’s exactly my point: Trump will “negotiate” the same way, will brag about a “deal” in the same way, and nothing will change in the same way, because both sides aren’t really interested in substantial change in the same way.

But Trump made a deal. The best deal in the history of deals.

I’m sure they will denuclearize in the same way North Korea did after Trump negotiated.

If steam goes under, a significant portion of your steam games won’t launch anymore, period. If GOG goes under, you can still use 100% of their installers, provided you still have them backed up. No, they are not going to be able to do that step for you. Did the store you bought physical games from put your discs in storage for you, so they wouldn’t clog up your basement? Did they give you a new copy if you lost or threw out your disc and then changed your mind?

Until the day after Gabe kicks the bucket.

and I distinctly said that it should be “a right”

Yes, you did, but you said it as part of an answer to the question “why are landlords considered parasites?”, and you explained that those who own more homes than they can live in are parasites. The logical conclusion (would be that it should be outlawed to be a landlord.

So, how am I to understand that? Should there be a quota, an acceptable amount of parasites so to speak?

People own apartments too. If you can’t own more than one home, surely apartments would also be covered by that?

If that means the government* subsidises it for the low income families (as in owns them and rents them at below market value), so be it.

Not everybody who doesn’t want to buy is low income. I’m too lazy / risk averse to maintain everything myself, so I happily pay my landlord a reasonable premium to bear the risk of shit burning down (or breaking in less dramatic ways) for me. I also like that I would be able to pack up and move without worrying about selling my old place. I might change my mind later on, but right now I’m good.

Why should governments subsidize the lifestyle choice I’m consciously making?

You assume that everybody wants to own and that just isn’t the case.

A jury can rule somebody not guilty even if they are convinced that they did the thing.
