Why would you trust steam? Valve famously invented lootboxes and tried to do the NFT market thing before NFTs were big. They are the strongest DRM on the market. What makes you think they're not just as greedy?

Can someone explain why antibiotics are used in the meat industry? Are lots of animals dying to bacterial infections so they need antibiotics to aid the yield, or are antibiotics incidentally also growth hormones, or something else? Always been curious

No, it's shocking that the destroyed evidence after being explicitly instructed not to.

It is for us plebs, look up adverse inference

I mean no, but also... yes? Like having a one person dev team is a little ridiculous for a game selling as well as Manor Lords. 50 people is a lot, but do you really think the game would have less features a year from now if the dev hired like 3 people to help?

Obviously development would slow down in the short term, but a one person dev team is asking for disaster

What's NVidia seeing in the gaming space? Or do they conflate gaming and ML sales?

And one government has international support

Anti-BDS laws exist (you can look them up on Wikipedia). Are they constitutional? Certainly not. Is our legal system going to fight them? Doubt it.

Harvard makes more money from it's investments than from tuition. I can't even imagine what their land holdings are netting them.

The thing is: Biden is pro-Israel but also pro-Palestinians. He's providing aid to Gazans and pressuring Israel to minimize civilian casualties. It's not great, or even good, I agree - but it's a whole lot better than Trump who would be pro-Israel and anti-Palestinians. You'd see humanitarian aid end and the US support total war instead of the (slightly) restrained version we're seeing now.

"Violence" is not an actor, violence does not "break out". It's a phrase used to hide the actors who instigated the violence, either due to a lack of knowledge or due to willful obfuscation. We have videos of what happened, so we know which it is.

There's a reason the Black Panthers were armed when they distributed free food to poor black children.

[One way of reading the comment you replied to is that] the point is that the media is both-sides-ing this instead of truthfully reporting that the violence was directed against the protestors. This allows the protests to be portrayed as "radical" and feeds into the false "pro-terrorism" and "extremist" narrative being portrayed against Gazan and Palestinian sympathizers.

Well the police didn't step in to stop the violence against the protestors, and the news outlets are all reporting this as "both sides" - so it sounds like the attackers got what they wanted.

Not US corporation good, just US corporation = US controlled. This isn't a morality play, it's a national security play.

Well China is refusing to divest, i.e. sell it to a US owner so clearly that's not an option for them. If it was about the money they would have.

For now

You're assuming its a profit-focused endeavor rather than a propaganda arm of the Chinese government.
