Piracy is a service problem.

Yes but also it is increasingly becoming a price problem

You just gotta let the sink in or something

Kinda ironic that you didn’t cover your email address in a privacy community

Red Sparrow is the better Black Widow movie.

It must be hard knowing the employee of the month was a contractor.

And it is attached to a subscription service that rotates games on a whim.

Front + trunk

This isn’t the first EV to do this. It’s not even the first Tesla to do it.

They didn’t get rid of the “don’t.” They got rid of the whole motto.

I’ve heard this argument thrown out before but my issue is always that you have a permanently declining user base since you can’t buy more copies. This is a band aid delaying the inevitable. It will not allow a game like this to live forever.

I remember there was a water treatment plant or something similar that got hacked. The hackers started messing with the levels of the chemical mixtures to poison an entire city. The only reason it didn’t end in catastrophe is because there was somebody watching that specific screen at the exact moment it happened. Seeing this made that scenario more terrifying.

Pre GME they would’ve buried them, for fun ofc

Post GME prob have bots shilling it to lurkers wondering the same thing

After the price falls, I see them having a future as a data company. They already have 1 customer paying them $60m annually. Regardless of it’s future, they have over a decades worth of data in many areas. Spez already got his though.

Streisand effect go!

The amount of times that this is the answer is honestly worrying.

“Federated bypass failed, video not available in any region”

Yo ho, yo ho…

I feel this is it but surely there are other apps following this model. I’m assuming they are probably the biggest but definitely not the only ones doing it. For good* ad-free software that is being actively developed and will get used probably every day for years, $100 seems more than fair to me. Beats paying a subscription indefinitely imo. I paid for the Plex lifetime pass for similar reasons and that was worth every penny.
*Good is subjective, just because you wouldn’t pay doesn’t mean others won’t.

Edit: formatting

I’m guessing mobile users who don’t pay for apps.

So in other words I’m above average
