It’s probably the guy who made the website after Trump failed to pay him.

So like, $5?

People will presure companies not to allow it. “I will not purchase your product because it is helping fund hate speech”

It doesn’t matter that the company did not choose to place the ad there. The ad being there gives money to platform that they are recieving because of hate speech.

Sit on this for two weeks, then reply with “so how’s that report coming?”

Right, Trump will definately just go away if you cover your eyes and plug your ears…

That’s like saying “in my opinion”: it’s unnecessary. Of course it’s your opinion or you wouldn’t have said it, and of course that was true last you checked or you wouldn’t claim that was the case.

If someone’s information is out of date it is appropriate to correct them. It is absurd to expect people to do research before posting anything about anything to make sure it is “up to date”.

For example: did you double check that you can in fact still play games off-line using Epic before posting? Or did you just assume it was true based on “last you checked”?

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney previously revealed that the company pays a flat fee to each developer to give away their games, rather than paying per download.

Your download doesn’t give the developer any money. The fee is already paid. The Developer gets just as much from you if you pirate their game, or more if you go purchase it on a different platform instead.

If what you said was true at the time you don’t look silly at all, because people don’t follow companies they decide they are done with.

If it’s outdated the reasonable response is simply informing people it’s out dated. Expecting them to keep up with a latest news of a company they don’t like makes you look silly.

“I don’t purchase from comapny X ever since they did Y” is a perfectly reasonable thing to say when people are talking about company X. The reasonable response to someone saying that is simply “They don’t do Y anymore, they haven’t done that since [date]”, not “HOW DARE YOU SHARE THE REASON YOU STOPPED USING COMPANY X IF YOU HAVEN’T BEEN FOLLOWING EVERYTHING THEY’VE DONE FOR THE PAST COUPLE YEARS!”

Man, if only there was another way to get free games…

I’ve got thousands worth of free games

So what’s the developer’s cut on a game you got for free? Or are you not nearly as concerned about developers as you pretend to be for the sake of your argument?

Right, everytime I decide I’m done with a company I make a point of keeping up on what they’re doing…

Capitalism: it’s not enough to make a lot of money, you have to make ALL the money.

You’re going to have to give up one or the other.

Also: “I can’t find any info online to back that up” Is a clue. Asking randos online isn’t going to change the lack of evidence for what your want to believe.

Netflix is forgetting that a large part of their success was due to being more convenient than piracy.
When prices went up a lot of people kept their subs because they didn’t want to kick family members off of it that they were sharing with.

If Netflix becomes less convenient than piracy and no one else is using my account I see no reason to keep it

Actually, Musk didn’t want to pay anything for Twitter, but was willing to pay $44 billion to avoid the discovery process.

Nah, there were great minds behind the creation of Deep Thought.

Corona wasn’t supporting the virus, it just happened to have the same name. If Corona experienced any loss of sales because of the name then people are incredibly stupid.

I heard he didn’t renew the contract for Google server hosting and Twitter can’t handle the traffic now.
