Unless you're going to tell me that Itch has a dynamic library filtering setting, family-sharing, the ability to have local machines on the network speed up my downloads, and the ability to dynamically remap controller profiles per-game, then yeah, steam is more user-friendly.

There was a time where the fact that launch meant a high player count, big community energy, and lack of hyper-optimized strategies minmaxxing the fun out of a game was sufficient reason to get it at launch.

But given how often modern launches are bungled, even that is not always true

Just one more update, okay? Just one more. One update. Just one.

Tigger's manic denial that he is lonely, and insistence that he is "wonderful" because "I'm the only one" has always hit me as a horribly depressed person feigning mania to hide/run from their awful situation

Eeyore at least is in touch with his feelings

They want them even more as middle managers.

The CEO's goal is to be able to say "we had the best intentions, I have no idea how it went so badly", and that requires a bunch of layers of middlemen who are willing to do anything to meet targets

Mercedes was the name of Emil Jellinek's daughter, Emil has the idea to develop sports cars, he designed and commissioned cars from an engineering company and named the model-line after her.

"Exempli Gratia" literally translates to "Example Given", so I'd say yes, it does stand for that?
