Yeah that explains why you think like a manager at a logistics company, not like one at a digital services provider that sells hardware on the side.
Their employees aren't moving boxes around. Their employee count couldn't be any less relevant to their logistical capabilities. If anyone has money to throw at the problem, it's Valve.

Yeah because that's totally not something you can outsource just as easily.
You're arguing as if Valve is a logistics company.

The number of employees is pretty meaningless in this context, and it's telling that is the only metric you cite. The number of active users would be far more meaningful.

I can't test it exactly right now as I'm on vacation, but from memory the 8BitDo Ultimate 2c is significantly quieter, and also more precise and long-lasting thanks to hall effect sticks. I got one for 21 bucks, it's really solid.

Valve isn't a corner store with no inventory tracking.

I think it's fine. The Steam Deck is Steam Hardware so I don't see what the confusion would be.

Steam deck is limited in power and thermals much more than a standalone console. Plus newer hardware.

And you don't have to be a fascist to spread fascist propaganda and dog whistles. Nobody said "PewDiePie is a fascist".

It's not exactly irrelevant when people try to frame "the West" as caring about justice and human rights as our imperial vassals actively conduct a genocide.

You don't have to be a committed fascist to be criticized for normalizing fascist dogwhistles and symbolism. "Other people do it too" is not a good excuse either.
That being said, it was a long time ago, and I do think he understands it was stupid and wouldn't do it again.

Many valid points, but having nukes generally only prevents getting nuked, not attacks by other means. At least as long as either party still has something to lose.

The followers of fascist movements are alsolute morons. The leaders are ruthless and capable opportunists.

His work, his sole accomplishment, is maximizing value extraction. That's not nothing, it's less than nothing because it's a monumental net negative for the rest of society.

Nothing was ever actually built by people like Bezos.

You say we should "simply observe" - so we should stop all military and financial aid and diplomatic support, cease repression of protests, and allow NGOs and the press to do their job? We happen to agree on that.
Perhaps not so much when it's just an excuse to maintain the status quo and ignore international law and human rights though.

The moral decision is blindingly obvious and it's not to threaten nuclear war to shield your rabid pit bull of an ally from retaliation, motherfucker.

I meant people who aren't right-wing idiots cheering on the fascist takeover. Thought that was clear from context, my bad.

No it wasn't. That's disregarding a heap of systemic criticism and moral considerations to paint it as a simple black-and-white issue useful to point blame and feel superior.

The main argument was never "Trump is no worse than Harris", to argue against this is fighting windmills.

I doubt that anyone ever claimed Trump would end the genocide on Palestinians from outside a troll farm in St. Petersburg.
