Atomic

I'll sorry to hear that. I suppose I've been fortunate enough to never have any issues at all with mine. I will be a sad day when it gives up. I don't think I could play Elden Ring with any other controller.

I have mine still. Bought it at launch. Never went back. Best controller I've ever had the pleasure to use. I genuinly LOVE everything about it. I don't even want the new one.

Can't improve upon perfection

Sweden.

I broke my knee at 16. Hospital bill: $0 (because I was under age at the time)

Any consultation with a nurse/doctor follows the standard fee of:~$25

Everyone gets free dental until they turn 26 years old.

My dad recently broke his arm (again). The total bill from the hospital including casting and xray: ~$35

If you have to spend more than ~$200 on medications in a year, you will be capped at that amount and everything above is literally, free.

Same goes for doctors visits but that's a separate ~$200 cap reached independently

Believe it or not, but everything is not about the US. Sometimes countries decide on policies without a single thought as to what the US thinks about it

This is obviously a fake image, Pluto is still there.

Pretty self explanatory don't you think? People can't use their old religious sites if you literally demolish them and build your own there.

Christianity have never liked competition.

I think it's a fair assumption that those that cook meat generally enjoy the taste and smell

I offered an explanation as to why I thought it was the same price in most of Europe.

It's also quite easy to travel within Europe. So they might think it will get taken advantage of for significantly cheaper prices. Which means less revenue for the publisher.

"Quite a bit of inflation" is a very nice way of saying "the currency is useless".

I don't know which currency the developers are paid in. But Valve is paid in whatever currency you spend. How they handle it from there is up to them and their bank(s).

They still have to pay tax in the countries they sell products in. I can't speak for all countries, but they generally want to be paid in their own currency.

In the end. It's up to each individual publisher to decide how and where to price their game. It's a question that has as many answers as there are publishers. I assumed we were all under that understanding but clearly I was mistaken.

Steam does not decide the price. The publisher does.

They used to accept Argentinian pesos. But no one wants it because it's worthless so that's why they have to pay in USD.

Because the value of 1 euro is always 1 euro no matter where in EU you live.

Games are priced the same in California as Florida despite California having a higher cost of living.

Same thing. Because 1 dollar is 1 dollar.

Glad you didn't. Be careful, we removed the door before moving it so it was at least slightly lighter.

If you want an actual (reasonably) secure safe in your home. Get a proper gunsafe that can be bolted to the ground and/or wall.

A fucking pain in the ass to transport if you ever move though. But that's the cost of having a reasonably secure safe at home.

If you need something more secure than that, I think you need to store it in a bank.
