Steam takes 30% at first, and there is a discount after tens of millions of dollars in sales.
Steam offers a ton of benefits for game companies through steam, such as the Friends list, reviews, having a way to show live play from the store page, and a bunch of other things. There is a reason that everyone is flocking to steam, and that 30% cut isn’t keeping anyone away.
Side quest: I could look for replacement seals for this machine, but apparently, they are pretty model-specific and may not fit if it’s off by even a single mm.
This is actually part of planned obsolescence, where it is difficult and costly to repair things even when parts are available by constant minor cosmetic tweaks dueing production.
Cars reusing parts between models is both cost savings to develop and to meet regulations for making parts available for a set number of years. If appliances were required to follow the same regulations then home repair would be feasible again.
I find the variation to be pretty common with all the branded socks so I just get the ones with bold colors that will be easy to sort. Even when I go all white or black I toss the old ones when I get a new package because there is nothing worse than being slightly different styles or one new and the other worn in.
Mismatched feel is even worse than mismatched colors!
The two on the right just look faded and worn. Are you saying all three are new?
They should just call it live service instead of early access.
Autocorrect and I are enemies.
You can tell by the way she is.
That isn’t Selma.
Some forums are still around, but a large number of them and their content have disappeared.
Discord is like gated communities on the internet. Not open to the public and not something that is publically indexed.
It isn’t even comparable to mastadon or lemmy when it comes to being a source of information.
Honestly the internet will route around the loss of reddit just like it did with the loss of forums and other crowdsourced platforms that have died off over time. Yeah, we will lose a treasure trove of knowledge, but a lot of it was also outdated and the same questions will be asked again so the knowledge can be rebuilt.
Honestly, most doctors just give you a note if you go in no matter what anyway, so I’ve always felt that it’s more about your workplace tracking you than trying to make sure you’re alright.
It has always been about discouraging people from taking sick time by making it sound like they might not be able to get a doctor to justify them being out sick. All my low paying jobs enforced it because we didn’t have sick leave and they didn’t hire enough coverage for people to be out sick.
My current job has it in the handbook that if you are out more than 2 days that you might need a note to return to work, is phrased as existing to ensure people who were out sick are actually well enough to return. I took a note in once after being out for 3 days and they said I only needed it if there was a chance I might still be contagious or have something that would make it dangerous to work for liability reasons. Haven’t bothered with one since!
Saying they are committed to producing no rubbish on site on a sign, then selling things that result in rubbish, is hypocritical.
I do that and it works great.
Looks like they trained it bad on purpose, as a joke.
According to its website, The Boring Company believes major cities need either flying cars or tunnels in order to get rid of traffic. Musk settled on the latter solution because tunnels aren’t impacted by weather changes and “won’t fall on your head.”
It is like he wasn’t aware that subways exist.
Free speech for me, but not for thee!
Hide it as a spoiler that is titled what it is and that it has gore.
Pretend there was gore here
Exile from such a group sounds like a win to me, but then again I don’t understand religious wackos.
