I agree that forced exclusivity is bad. I absolutely disagree with your statement that ubisoft store was better than steam, I don’t even understand how you can say something like that. But yes, without the games any store is worthless.

You didn’t respond to my question though, so I’ll repeat it: even if someone was able to launch a product with feature parity to steam, why would anyone migrate?

I was gonna comment about epic giving games away for free, but I think I got your point. You mean like the same releases, but subsidizing, say, 10% of the price?

Assuming that a company could hope to achieve a store front with similar features in a few years instead of the 21 that steam had, why would anyone migrate there?

I’m on the same page as you, it’s tough. I have no idea how any other platform can really achieve competitor status with steam, and this is a big problem for us consumers and for developers.

I don’t usually like snarky dismissive comments, but.

That’s great news tbh. I’ve tried going back to the game multiple times over the years, but since you can’t reset your progess/start a new save, I get overwhelmed by everything and give up.

Click on the “blocks” tab, it’s at the bottom.

“LLM did something silly” must be the most boring type of concern bait out there.

My own custom layout that tries to find a compromise between not fucking too much with the left side keys because of hotkeys, typing en and my mother tongue, and programming.

Also use 28 keys split keyboard, so some macros for some keys.

haha one of my favs from them.

I bought the Zenfone 10 for those reasons and I’m pretty happy with it. I’m not going to buy a Samsung again.

I do! 1 slack only though.

To be fair, this only happened twice. I have friends who consistently take days to reply, that’s totally fine with me. But if I send a message, couple weeks go by without a reply or the person initiating conversation, and then it happens again, that means that they don’t care about talking to me, which’s 100% their right 🤷‍♂️

If someone is going through a hard time, dealing with depression and whatnot, that’s different, but also the exception.

Speak for yourself, if someone ghosts me like that twice, I’m quite done with them. I am an introvert and I take the time at least once a day to reply to all messages from people I care about. Which’s like 3.

I had to stop drinking 5 years ago and holy shit the savings.

This is correct.

The kg of raw chicken here is currently at 2.34€ at the two biggest supermarket chains, a whole chicken is usually 1.5kg.

Maybe engage in some light tax evasion.

haha made me lol

In Portugal a whole raw chicken is around 3.5€, about 0.45% of a minimum wage.

Buy the whole damn chicken, it’s always cheaper, protein for 4 meals.
