Because you’re a reactionary.

Fun fact, Facebook was caught doing the same thing with its apps. Hell, Facebook was caught FORCING YOUR MICROPHONE ON AND RECORDING YOUR CONVERSATIONS
They don’t have data outside the US. Oracle handles all TikTok data for US users locally.
That’s a big part of it too, but i think an even bigger part is the use of TikTok in counter culture. It is definitively the largest gathering of counter culture on the web. They fear losing control of the narrative. The intelligence agencies already control Meta and google. They have members on TikTok’s board. Social media is an avenue for consent manufacturing for our government, and any deviation from their manufactured line is unacceptable.
Series X is amazing hardware wise, but since they keep releasing games without physical copies, I haven’t turned mine on and likely won’t for some time. The console also doesn’t really work right without internet connection. As in, it is literally impossible to set up an Xbox without internet. It’s also literally impossible to install any games without internet, which is fucking bonkers.
There’s fools all over Reddit and lemmy saying the same thing. I had a guy argue that because in 2011 60% we’re overweight in Gaza, that means today no one is starving.
Wow so cool, responding to someone taking the time to point out why your eugenicist rhetoric is definitively and provably incorrect, and you just respond with memes. You’re so nonchalant.
I mean, because it’s not true.
We have more than enough resources to feed everyone on earth. We have the land, we have the money to pay the farmers, we have the infrastructure to transport it anywhere in the world easily and quickly. The issue we’re having isn’t too many people, but a small group of people utilizing multiples of the energy they need, and dozens of multiples of the energy of the masses of the world.
You realize westerners regularly go to Gaza and don’t end up thrown off buildings, right?
When I played counter strike I expected no such thing. If I wanted skins, I could go get them for free on csbanana. I expected nothing more than a game and a dedicated server client. The rest was provided by the community.
Is that guys name actually Pony Ma?
Now, my mandarin is very bad, but Ma means horse, among other things. So is this guys name horse small horse?
Edit: his Chinese name is 马化腾. Mǎ Huàténg. So his family name is indeed horse, but Pony isn’t his name, just a nickname.
It’s irrelevant whether or not they were hamas. They could sit outside the doors and arrest them when they leave, but going into a hospital to kill people is literally the behavior of nazis.
All your enemies are judeo-bolsheviks. If they weren’t, they wouldn’t be your enemies, right?

Sure, here’s an updated link from what I knew even.

Hope you find it as interesting as I did just now, cheers!
Somalian Pirates were actually often protecting their territorial waters from foreign opportunists plundering in the collapse of the Somalian government. The framing as pirates only works in the sense that these weren’t state-driven fleets, but rather civilian driven in order to protect their livelihoods against corporate raiders.
Agreed with everything you say, and I don’t have any solutions you haven’t said. I would like to add, buy your nephews, cousins, kids, students, etc physical games. Buy them the games they want, too, not just the ones that you think they should have. Get them used to going to the store to look at games and game boxes. Take them to the retro game store and let them pick something out. Encourage gaming to be more than passive consumption, and try to instill more positive associations with ownership. Avoid lecturing, or trying to create negative associations with digital or subscription products, and just help them share in your passion, it’ll take you a long way.
It might help if the US stops staging war games based on assassinating their leadership and invading the country. Like, maybe they could stick to defensive war games based on protecting SK, at least.
The spin off games are fun and popular with the kids around my 8 year old brother, which is who they’re intended for.
I’ve just stuck with AetherSx that came on my Retroid, though I’ve heard of Nethersx also. When you say Modern can run the Snowblind engine games, does that mean that fire doesn’t tank the frame rate on that version? You can’t have both classic and modern installed at the same time, can you?
