Stadia was amazing. I blame everyone but Google on its demise. You could literally play CP 2077 without a console but people still stuck to PlayStation and Xbox. Google handled the shutdown so well. I played around $500 worth of games got the money back. Kept two controllers and bought a steam deck with that money

The sooner everyone accepts that AndroidPolice has turned into an Apple propaganda and sponsored content website, the sooner we can choose another website for Android News.

YouTube is not Wikipedia or fucking EMS

I had no idea there was a cap. I wonder how accurate that 51k is

Fuck that sell-out Ajit Pai.

Added to the watchlist. As a new father I really resonate with this

The panda look was not unique. I really enjoy the new look. I can tell when someone is using a pixel because the cameras stand out.

No production, storage, shipping... You think all of that costs $1? Also not every book is $50. A lot are way cheaper than that (around $10). So even $1 would be %10 which is not just a very small fraction (but again it's more than that). See below for a screenshot of Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone. Kindle edition is even more expensive than the paper copy ($10 vs $7). Not only that it is more expensive for no reason but it is about 40% more expensive compared to the $7 price of the physical copy (and I don't think I have to say this but I don't think that's a small fraction).

Edit: also I never said I don't purchase any ebooks. I said I'll stop using libgen when ebooks are cheaper than physical copies. Whenever I see shit like the screenshot I have attached I just pirate the book. I am not going to spend $10 on an ebook when half of that is going into Bezo's pocket for no reason.
