I mean presumably you could just ask 'how do you know that?'. But also whats to say you arent just making it up in the first place and have never had peanut butter. Thats why you should be critical of information and find trusted sources.

We didn't collectively decide anything lol. Hilarious you think thats how our society works.

People are responding to it. Idk how you sort your feed, but if its by 'hot' or 'active' then your comment just helped bump it back up to the top.

I feel like this is probably due to the steamdeck and so much steamos functionality requiring steam to be running.

I think its kind of reductive to claim that all the billionaire fascists are merely racists. I mean sure, racism plays a part, and they definitely are racists, and eugenicists, but fascism primarily is about power and control, and those that have that power now and want more of it arent motivated solely by racism. The reason fascists dislike minorities of all kinds, not only racial minorities but also sexual and religious ones, is because they threaten the status quo and exist outside of the fascists desired hierarchy, and because its useful for controlling a population to give them something 'other' to hate and fight against, aside from the fascist puppetmasters pulling their strings. Race is definitely involvex, but for the billionaires leading the charge, the fascist push is avoht money and power and control.

That cost seems incredibly high, how did you calculate that? Also what are you paying for a loaf of bread? Granted cheese is expensive so depending on how much mozarella you're factoring in that could play a part, but im still curious about your numbers.

I mean if i was kyle gass id tell jack black to go fuck himself. He made a big fit over a simple joke when his whole shtick(before being a literal clown for Disney(tm)) was being an 'edgy' comedian who writes songs that are supposed to be offensive.

Except the difference between a person not buying the game and a person pirating it is literally nothing from the perspective of the company. Except actually, as many devs have found and acknowledged, people who pirate the game often actually result in increased word of mouth and publicity, and things like merch sales, not to mention many go on to buy the game later when they never would have if they hadnt pirated it first. So saying "just dont buy it" is kinda fucking dumb, because thats all theyre doing in the first place, and the only negative consequence of piracy for the company is a "potential lost sale" that never would have happebed anyway.

But you expect other people to use their free (literally unpaid) time to code what you want them to rather than what they care about or think is important. After theyve already made all of their work and progress free and openly available to anyone who wants to build off it. You have a fucked up view of the world.

So stop crying about it and tell us your must-pirate games already.

The bridge (original scandinavian show) has a detective who exhibits a lot of high functioning autistic traits, although iirc its never explicitly stated that she's autistic. Also i found the show "Atypical" to be excellent at showcasing neurotypical reactions to an autistic character. Obviously the show focuaes heavily on autism as thats the whole point, but it shows the character in a variety of situations and it feels very realistic and like it was made with the purpose of making autistic people more "understandable" to neurotypicals which i feel might serve your purpose.

Moist. No but really ive always thought "sedge" is a funny sounding word.
