This is actually a pretty good post
Although the general education classes like psychology and sociology are annoying, they're all essential knowledge for being an educated human being. It's a shame Florida wants their population to be ignorant conservatives.
I hear this all the time. I have this conversation on the regular.
Them: "Oh you think Tik Tok is spyware?"
Me: "yes"
Them: "I'll have you know so is Google, Apple, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Microsoft, and all the big American companies too"
Me: "Yeah, that's why I don't use them"
Them: gasp "you're just paranoid bro are you a drug dealer or something?"
Me: "no, I just like my privacy. You probably wouldn't like it if some guy was following you keeping tabs about everything you do either."
Them: "well I've got nothing to hide"
Me: "maybe the next person in power might see your current and past beliefs illegal"
Imo Reddit has been the winner of the 3rd party apps and fuck spez protests. The users came crawling back. A few of us went to lemmy and formed quality communities, but for the most part, a large majority are on there.
I'm fucking enraged man. I hope we can regulate these assholes.
lemm.ee already made the decision, based off of the voice of the community to defederate from Threads
From u/fablegrimoire,
"Gamedev here. This is NOT normal. I suspect a bug happened on Valve's side.
EDIT: checked our Steam email again: "If you do not add a USD price to these columns for your game before November 20th, we will default to the standard USD pricing you already have in Steamworks.", seems like manual input was explicitly needed after all, but I'm not the only dev who missed it apparently.
Here's a summary of what happened:
Last month, Steam notified all devs and publishers of the price change
Steam automatically suggested prices for LATAM and MENA (mostly half the USA price)
Through the Steam pricing tool, devs can manually override the suggestion with another price
We manually lowered the price to our 2nd game, but let Steam decide for our 1st game ($12.49)
Come today, and through Steamdb, we see that Steam did NOT apply its own suggested price for our 1st game. Instead it applied USA price (24.99). We still see the halved, Steam-suggested $12.49 price in our pricing tool.
Game developers are now discovering this and are hurriedly manually changing the prices to make it fairer to LATAM and MENA regions. We just did that and are waiting for Valve to approve the change.
I promise that outside of AAA publishers like EA, almost no game developer wanted this to happen. We're aware that this is counter-intuitive and we know it won't help with sales (or our reputation) at all."
The child should've also carried a gun to protect themselves from bad wedding officiants.
Ah yes to make your lights work, we need all your data. Stuff like this is why I don't have "smart" anything.
Damn they tried to plug LTT store too. GN made a long serious video with stats, data, no jokes, no sponsors or plugs.
I hope to fuck this shit won't get passed
