Sure would be fun to strengthen the emoluments clause right about now to enforce compliance.

I've never had so much fun staring at the screen for minutes on end without doing anything. Calculating my next move. Great game, but definitely not one you can just play mindlessly.
we all spent $34 billion dollars on the project that is $850,000 for every person.
Wanna try that math again?
Hey, good job getting to day 11. This has been fun!
NewPipe had to deal with some thing YouTube did to break things. And they fixed them super quick. Last time I had a video not work, I visited the GitHub site and saw there was a new release from 11 minutes ago. Installed it and the video worked perfectly.
Actually the opposite for me. Real meat has so much grease in it I often feel bloated after a burger. Beyond meat burgers are fine for me.
I know. I had plans to go there as soon as it was convenient. I wanted to relive a childhood vacation...
I agree with you that there's a problem, but I think you're targeting the wrong villian here. I shop local whenever I can but there are a few things that are just... big. Video games are worldwide and getting them off the internet is nice. There's no such thing as a local video game distributor. There's local indie game development which I do support, but Steam is a product I like which does its job very well.
The problem here is scale, not necessarily who individuals are buying from. Take major league sports as an example. Salaries for indivudual players are in the millions because of the amount of eyeballs attached to wallets that are interested in watching those players. Less eyeballs, less money, and the players would probably be doing the same thing but not be making as much money. Same thing with music. It's very hard for an artist to make a good living with music, but once they hit global awareness suddenly money will come rollin in from all over the place. This isn't a problem with the people doing the jobs (although it could be said that major league sports should charge less, they are trying to maximize their profit) but is the result of the amount of people who are willing to pay.
The probelm you're having is that a company is allowed to suck up so much money and keep it. That's a problem for governments to handle. Individuals can choose who to give their money to, but sometimes there aren't any other good choices.
If it's that easy then make your own competetor and charge less. It's not like steam has exclusively deals with anyone.
I'm colour blind and don't see red very well. I didn't even notice that the text had different colours until I read your comment.
Random access memory. Random access data is when you're having fun with C pointers and risk a seg fault.
Glad you survived being buried.
