If you need comments to explain what is happening (and not why it is happening), then you’ve got some bad code that needs refactoring.

Then you’d be laughing in the face of some poor schmoe who just works there and has no say in this matter, unfortunately.

It depends. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I’m assuming it was hyperbole, not literal.

This seems a bit like missing the forest for the trees. Steam does not really let you know if the game is DRM-free, does not guarantee it will stay that way, and does not provide a reliable way to back these games up in a way where they could be used without the launcher.

Start selling games without DRM that only use the launcher to update and it’s better than steam.

So… GOG?

I’m fairly sure it’s just a joke comment.

“This game requires a constant online connection”

This is the dumbest take.

They never had a “biblical right” because there is no such thing.

… Until your doctor starts pushing it because he saw it on Joe Rogan.

Kinda disappointing. I was hoping for a single-player-focused title.

That’s not creepy or weird, that’s horrifying.

Except “mass” is not useful by itself. It’s not a chair factory where more people equals faster delivery, just like 9 women won’t deliver a baby in a month. I wish companies understood this.

I think the answer to this is lack of adoption.

Ok, but the comment thread is about people preferring Bluesky to Mastodon, hence my confusion.

Isn’t the format literally just Twitter?

Are you complaining that older versions of Java don’t have the features of newer versions of Java…?

For me, as primarily a backend dev, the argument was that it’s a framework, unlike React, so you get an everything-in-one solution which is quite easy to setup and use.

Given that Google still hasn’t killed this one yet, it’s also a mature platform with plenty of articles online on how to use it.

IIRC the license was also better than React’s, at least last time I checked.

Not sure on what the landscape looks like today, but when I was making the choice, the internet didn’t seem to consider other solutions to be competitive with either React or Angular.

Ah, yes, because if you do a modicum of prevention, like wearing a mask, you’re obviously missing life and there’s definitely no way to keep up with the world unless you just completely give up on safety. No in-between, snort covid or become a social shut-in.
