  • +1 to steam sales being more worthwhile back then. I 1000% understand the ownership thing. I don’t think most people had to consider what digital purchases really could mean until Sony pulled purchased content out of people’s libraries.

    I personally don’t think Steam is comparable to Sony apart from digital purchases. Steam or Valve aren’t beholden to large share holders because they aren’t publicly traded, I don’t think they’ll have the same objectives as Sony and prioritize their users instead of public shareholders.

    I’d be happier if dedicated servers became the norm again for developers. Games wouldn’t disappear at the flick of a switch when servers are decommissioned.




  • Ah, fair enough, thank you.

    I personally dont think we’re close to fox total domestication however. It seems like we’ve selective breed a human friendly temperament but there’s more to it than that for the sake of pet-ness that I’m sure people like to have. That is the main point in my OP. They love to mark, burrow into furniture and cause other problems. Those issues I think will be harder to alter than temperament. Probably not in my lifetime or most of ours in my opinion.

    Fox’s aren’t going to be domesticated.

    Foxes dont follow a hierarchical system like dogs, cats or horses where there is an Alpha (the owner of the animal) whom they fall under in the pecking order.

    Foxes like to shit and piss all over everything and burrow Into couches. Good luck with the fox thing.




  • Can you cite a source for that?

    Also, I realize 150m is a lot of money to people… But making only 150m ever from apple stock? Sounds like not alot considering apples valuation so I doubt him being a major holder with that profit from stocks, nor enough that I’d consider “ultra rich” when CEO of reddit makes more than that as a salary per year apparently. That’s not even considering stock spez owns.

    Judging by your comment history, you seem like a rather unhappy person. I hope you can find peace some day soon, I don’t think social platforms will help you find that peace however. Good luck.
