How are they a gatekeeper? Near monopoly sure. But they don't force companies to only publish on Steam. They don't have restrictive rules. I'm not sure what gate they are keeping.

Depending on the local laws, running red lights and stop signs can be perfectly legal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idaho_stop

Studies have shown this can improve cycling safety.

That's fun. I tested positive for ecoli last week and live in Colorado. Nothing to do with McDonalds tho. Got it from a recent overseas trip.

This isn't new, at all. They're just being more transparent about it. It feels shitty that transparency is met by outrage stemming from ignorance. Just buy from GoG.

A few extra meters wouldn't be too drastic. From the top of Everest the horizon is about 300km away.

They were released everywhere in the US for a similar reason. Towns wanted squirrels for the furry aesthetic. Before squirrels just hung out in the forest.

For future reference, you can update LG TVs via USB so you can avoid connecting it to a network.

Yea I agree $40k is a bit disingenuous. But the cost of a car is more than the car itself. It's better to view it as a ongoing expense of fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc. AAA estimates between 7-10k a year. https://www.aaa.com/autorepair/articles/average-annual-cost-of-new-vehicle-ownership

I got it for free with a CPU I bought. Played roughly 3 hours before I stopped. It was just too boring.

As with pretty much any staple food. It's used as a filler. The reason you might not understand is that it can be expensive to eat only meat, veggies, etc. A cheap staple like rice, noodles, or bread is a good way not to die of starvation or at the least keep some money in your pocket.

If a staple food isn't part of your daily diet, that speaks a bit of privilege on your economic position.

Also I enjoy rice. It's neutral tasting but with a tiny bit of seasoning it's good.
