Will be surprised if this doesn't get thrown out. They are trying to extort Valve.

Quoting: Liam Dawe

Quoting: ExplosiveDiarrheaThank God US laws don't apply to the rest of the world... yet!

A common thing people say - but the reality is the opposite. If you want to do any kind of business or service in the US, the laws very much do apply.

I feel that if the things Trump is doing continue into the long term future, that I wouldn't be surprised if countries start walling themselves off from others. I could totally see the EU blocking the US, and vice versa, coming down the road, and that would include the internet, which would be split into separate ones. That would also give the governments even more control over their citizens.

Isn't it possible for companies to sue the states over these laws? I feel like it would be justified at this point.

Ah, great, more depressing news is just what I needed. I'm so exhausted by this reality. Every day it's more bad news. I'm just so tired.

As someone who doesn't have kids (thank God) and never will, I'm really tired of being punished because other people can't or won't parent their children, which makes the government feel the need to step in. Hopefully the state I live in, Colorado, doesn't do something like this.

Quoting: anokasionThese are great news, but I wonder why the sudden change

I'm curious about that too. I've not been able to find an answer yet.

GOG might be in trouble in the future if people keep balking at donating to help out. I'm not optimistic about preservation anymore. I think the corporations will win, sadly. Just like with everything else now, the consumer is losing. People in general will almost always take and rarely contribute when given the option, even when the economy has been good in the past; it's just that now people can point to how bad things are as their reason.

Wish this could happen in real life. Like, right about now in the US would be great.

Quoting: ZlopezLet's hope the bubble around AI will burst soon.

I'd say, before it's too late, but the environmental damage is already being done. Because of this, at least in the US, our dictator-in-chief has thrown us all in on AI, so when it bursts, the economy is going to tank hard. He likely won't even suffer consequences because he'll just blame the democrats or China and his followers will eat it up.
