A bit ironic when Microsoft struggles because someone else keep breaking compatibility. Although I would prefer it to keep trying because that would have been more choice and competition in the mobile OS land

Good point, I wonder if elasticity of demand will be affected by the AI bubble bursting (I expect there will be a recession and demand will get less elastic, bit I'm no economist)
I still think there is some communication issue, but I re-read your original comment and I am quite lost about what your point was: you say Valve is monopoly BUT it's not evil (from another thread you linked) and you don't propose to dismantle it. So, what should the readers do with the newly acquired knowledge?
If you want to warn, then warn directly, if you want to call to action, do so. If you want people to just think for themselves, you will get nothing except people thinking you fail to make a point and arguing with you because they came up with that result by thinking for themselves
Yeah, I can't answer your question either, because I find it may be either hard or impossible to come up with an answer
They seem to ask how to phrase the same thing in such a way that you can't come and reply that their tone is condescending.
Much passive, very aggression, I find it hard to side with people this snarky :(
The original comment reads more like: they could've used an abstract conflict without specifics allowing to identify it
I would add: maybe that was intentional, also maybe they thought that the US were on the side of good in that case
this is tomato soup in a bread bowl
Well, now I want to try it much more
So, ceo has 20× the average in their company, wow
You got the point, but non-profit that doesn't usually exist on the brink of collapse or stops existing entirely
No, not for pointing out
