Bowling For Soup either made it or covered it. Hard to tell with punk tbh

You see how

“Link” is highlighted?

Highlight “discussion”

I have a near complete control of a market segment.

I want to monetize that control further.

I release slot machine mini games into my most popular games.

I have contributed to the gambling epidemic that plagues modern society.

I am not a trust worthy entity.

I am Steam

Does that make sense?

Loot boxes are not a monopoly.

Its a bad thing they did to abuse their monopoly stance

And didn’t you learn a valuable lesson about scrolling socials when you should have focused on those KPIs?

Maybe the difference is effort versus objective reality.

You and OP are concerned with whether or not they became a monopoly maliciously when I think the previous commenter is concerned with whether or not they simply are a monopoly.

In my view they are a monopoly and they have abused that. I’m thinking of their loot boxes and silent support of skin gambling.

We should be mistrustful of institutions with this much power, regardless of if they’re actively abusing it.

I think it’s “eye spot”

Gotta say it homies.

I think I finally found a kink I don’t get.

I’m a simple man.

I got to thepiratebay.org

I download what I want and put it on a jellyfin server

I never want much just some albums or a couple movies.

Its good enough and I’m pretty happy I don’t do anything crazy. I shouldn’t be watching this much TV as it is!

What’s even crazier is he freely admits to this.

He continues to freely admit that the best way to get views is to be seen as rich and generous because kids love that stuff.

He only knows how to YouTube and Market and he says this all the time.

Mildly related.

I have a Native American friend. Her tribe is small so they only have a relatively small plot as their reservation. So they slapped a casino there and she makes bank by simply being a tribe member.

I asked if she’s okay with that since I would feel bad making money off of peoples gambling addiction and she said

“I don’t feel bad for white people.”

And honestly

1. I don’t think that’s a completely shocking take consider all of american history

But also

2. Its certainly a similar sentiment among sex workers I’ve met so its not an unfounded accusation.

This is very much a “if your eye is causing you to sin, pluck it out” moment, but still

I run stock Pop OS and I’ve only recently wanted to give a shit about macros.

You should only care if you’re running a specific software. By and large its AS SEEMLESS as using Windows.

Note that its not really BETTER its mostly just DIFFERENT.

He is after all a humble man.

Everyone in this green text is autistic.

Nope.

What’s your technical skill?

You can host a really simple blog for free if you are comfortable with github, markdown, and Hugo

My blog

thinkstoomuch.net

Is built that way. There’s lots of premade themes.

If you’re (rightfully) adverse to github you can also use codeberg actions but I haven’t done that yet. I’m wanting to though!

I think I followed this guide initially

My life for Super Users!

I’m not convinced AI slop can compete with the back log of organic slop personally.

But yeah a fuckton is probably slop either way

1. Mad its clickbait

2. Don’t care cause Michaelsoft bad
