Liquids aren’t even the issue. Salt is. Every time I gorge myself on some smoked salmon before bedtime I inevitably wake up in the middle of the night. Apparently getting rid of some salt is somehow now important than a good night’s sleep. My bladder isn’t going to corrode just because I have slightly more salt in it. Let me fucking sleep!

Did Pythagoras even know about sin, cos and tan? I am reluctant to call A^2 +B^2 =C^2 trigonometry.

Hipparchus, the alleged founder of trigonometry, was alive 350 years after Pythagoras (500BC to 150BC).

I would like to know about ASS, too.

Doing my best to change this. I am extremely toxic without engaging in political behavior.

I have no idea what that means.

Will I suppose that’s where we gotta disagree then. I cannot ever imagine exclusivity deals going away. Unless we somehow manage to get a government-subsidized middleman to track and enforce parity, you’ll always have platforms attracting prospective developers with exclusivity deals. Then you don’t have to compete with pricing at all!

As for your last point, I believe most gamers would tell any company charging for downloads to fuck off. But I can see this actually happening in the future.

You would have a platform to trade games, and another to keep them. The trading platform will be able to undercut the holding platform due to practices such as exclusivity deals. This, in turn, will make the holding platform require a commission fee whenever a game is transferred to it.

If you could get a game for free in the Epic store and transfer it to Steam, where does Steam get the money from?

Also it used to be fast, but got bloated and lost its greatest advantage. They abandoned every design choice that made them popular in the first place.

Then those games would be subject to Gresham’s law LMAO. I would never trust a company that allows transfers between platforms.

Simple. When you license your show to a streaming platform, it is more lucrative to put in an arbitrary end date on the off-chance the platform decides to renew the license. Consumers have no say in this so they just have to take what is given.

Want to stream it forever? Be prepared to pay an exorbitant amount of money because the showrunnere REALLY don’t want that.

They knew what they were doing.

But good would we go about getting rid of those invasive species? They can just use a VPN making any societal pressure we put out pointless.

I like to think of them as IPv6 addresses. You just don’t.

Not Pawlexander? Weak.

I’m afraid you’re shit out of luck. Jessica is already an elongated name. If it were something like Jess, you could use Jessilda.

Not in the current social media climate. I want my content to actually be seen and interacted with. What we need is for Lemmy to have THE community for a particular interest. As long as there is some place bigger, that’s the one people will use.

Content about what? The communities in Lemmy that I care about have a grand total of 0 users and that’s if I include myself. Not much of a conversation to be had.

Alright. What about Windows 12: European cringe edition?

The domestication of felines and its consequences have been a disaster for my dick.
