that's based entirely on 4chan's advertising demographic claims which I'm not sure if they should be given much credence given there is no information at all about how it was determined.

Also the statistic is at least 10 years old without being updated, and could even be much older

It's just the paradox of tolerance again. Too much freedom causes a power vacuum, which almost inevitably causes some small but determined authoritarian group to gobble up that power until they get so big they can overthrow the whole system. And then you're back to square one, except now the system is probably fascist.

That group won't exist in a vacuum. It needs to be resilient to outside interference. Even inside that group there are going to be people that only identify with it out of convenience rather than true belief. It is still possible for individuals to accrue social capital, form "inner circles" and individually stockpile resources - and stopping them would logically infringe on their freedoms to associate, freedom to dig holes, etc.

Paychecks? I am a self-made billionaire, all thanks to the Free Software Grindset

This is not a joke. If you don't wake up at 4 am to start harassing windows users, you will never become a GNU/Linux Trillionaire.

it soars because the profit was near zero before and is now returning to "normal" (their competitor SK hynix made a 5 billion operating loss in one quarter last year)

sus ,

and the carbon fiber hull was cheap because it's shelf life had expired.

steam's drm is a complete joke though? Tons of game developers add their own drm on top because it is so trivial to bypass steam's own.

Their main product is a marketplace/content delivery system

I'd think game journalism has been mostly replaced by youtube reviewers / video essays, no?

CRT TV with extra steps

at least it probably saves you from the worst fate: that nobody cares about the game enough to try to discover the things

(I'm fairly sure that datamining is not that common outside highly popular games, well assuming the data isn't neatly in plaintext)

if all 330 million 'mericans tried living in the woods, shit would go south really quickly

sus ,

because AbstractTransactionAwarePersistenceManagerFactoryProxyBean needs to spin up 32 electron instances (one for each thread) to ensure scalability and robustness and then WelcomeSolutionStrategyExecutor needs to parse 300 megabytes of javascript to facilitate rendering the "welcome" screen

Oopsie woopsie!

nowadays dwarf fortress has built in multithreading (and the combination of other optimizations and the progress in CPU power has made it a fairly well-performing game overall)

I'm pretty sure that "motorcycle airbag vest" is not considered a standard piece of safety equipment by law

Harambe is dead. Harambe remains dead. And we have killed him.
