You know books haven’t been innovating graphics for centuries. It’s scary how many people have been using old books for recreational use. How can newer book publishers compete?

She could just be mouthing off Ruby’s browsing history…

It is misleading. It is 30% of the entire revenue of the game. And it is objective whether Valve deserves 30% of that revenue. It’s also true that games aren’t locked to the Steam platform and can absolutely make money outside of Valve’s influence. History has shown though that it is less profitable then being inside the Steam ecosystem.

The efficiency is doing it so effectively that on an open platform competitors can create there own store, pay for AAA games to appear on their store, take the smallest of pay cuts, pass it on to the consumer, and still have customers prefer to pay more to be in the Steam ecosystem. I’m against monopolies but Valve’s is absolutely efficient.

The London community is quiet at the moment so I wouldn’t mind moderating it myself for now, adversely I wouldn’t mind taking on mod duties for other communities until such a time where that would become unmanageable. I appreciate the work being done by the way, I can very much feel a contrast now vs when Feddit UK was essentially unmaintained.

Thank you. I’m not the best with messing with CSS but I’ll see what I can do. Realistically though I’ll probably need assistance and I don’t mind waiting till you have a good moment.

Thank you for your consideration ^{sorry for the late reply I thought I replied but apparently didn’t…}

As a non-American this name still sounds really wierd to me. I just mentally picture meat juice on cookies.

Has anyone tested this on a Steam Deck yet and can report it’s performance?

I love it, I had a Mastodon account but I’ve yet to find an instance I’d call a home. With Lemmy it just fell into place here, defined what the Fediverse even is to me and why having these different instances is important.

Reminds me of one of Oculus Quest 2’s default envioments.

Too many to count, but the entirety of “Cape Feare” was a good one. I only saw the film the episode was based later on in life. It was one of favourite episodes beforehand and seeing the references only increased my appreciation.

If growing up with Simpsons taught me anything is that you need to get the reference to like the material.

They recently got a new CEO a month ago because Linus the owner realized he was unfit for that purpose. It should have been dealt with years ago but I wonder if some benefit of the doubt can be given here seeing as the company was in a state of transition and probably would of cleaned up the work culture in private.

Or not because Linus still owns the company and the buck stops at the absolute top. He put his friend in high positions so it would cause a uncomfortable position when someone who wasn’t his friend lower down the ladder were to speak out. He has also consistently showed toxic masculinity in the way he acts and has spread it within the fabric in the company,

I have no strong opinion one way or another, but please tell me if I’m being unfair here on either side here. I think the company can still clean itself up and has shown actions before it was publicly known to address it, and I also think the company has misogyny in it’s corporate structure and DNA which will constantly be problematic.

Realisticly he was brought in last month so he wouldn’t have had time to properly analyse the corporate side of the company. Right now this is the best time or a fresh face on the top who could create change from the top down where these kind of discussions now has real weight behind them.

I think the best way to discourage misogyny is to suspend Linus who would be looked at as the source of it for 30 days and demote Colton who failed in his duties to protect every employee at LMG. Get someone outside LMG to manage Human Resources. Maybe one day that trust might return.

Imagine just how much worse it would have been if she just came out randomly. The fact she made a glassdoor review long before and it wasn’t picked up says a lot about LMG’s audence.

LMG has a massive frat boy culture to it. It was never hidden, in fact it seemed like it was welcomed and encouraged.

The Gamer’s Nexus video was necessary for others to speak out. Steve was clear that speaking up was a move that could backfire due to the power imbalance involved. Had he not spoken up there would be no opportunity for Madison to weigh in her experiences without being attacked.
