Didn't Lincoln and the other guys have slaves themselves?

No.

I thought the slavery abolition was just a reason to get the black people fighting on their side

That is a half-truth at best. The Emancipation Proclamation didn't free any slaves outside the confederacy.

How did sideloading get its name?

The Biden administration, reluctant to change course, may say the parallels between Gaza and Ukraine are far from exact, but it also seems to know it is gradually losing diplomatic support.

There are no parallels in Gaza and Ukraine. The Revolution of Dignity spooked Putin. There is no analog of that in Gaza.

Israeli attitudes towards Hamas are comparable to the Russian pretense of the "de-nazification" of Ukraine.

someone was made fun of one too many times about having green bubbles in imessage

I seem to remember a lot of people upset about GPL V3 I don't remember how that was resolved.

I wish I had a use for that.

It's the holidays and everyone is traveling. Get your clickbait headlines outta here.

they change the names because they suck

well, I don't think battle.net is the worst launcher

Origin is still bad and so is whatever Ubisoft's launcher is called.

edit: for the record I didn't say that steam was the best launcher, but I have found the launchers for world of warships and warthunder to be serviceable

Last year, I pointed out how many big publishers came crawlin' back to Steam after trying their own things: EA, Activision, Microsoft. This year, for the first time ever, two Blizzard games released on Steam: Overwatch and Diablo 4.

Why is it so hard for companies to build a game launcher that doesn't suck? Is it just a lowest bidder situation?

I don't like artificial metrics constructed from other metrics without any explanation.
