the problem with blaming companies is none of them do this out of desire to hurt the environment. they do it to meet customer demand.
as an example imagine if we all stopped buying gas from Shell. their environmental impact would plummet…and their competitors impact would go up as we continue to buy the same amount of gas from other companies
there’s also the impact of having less consistency in hours. i.e if I work Friday and don’t work Monday but am blocked waiting for someone whondoesnt work friday…it’s waiting until Tuesday.
even just knowing enough to not consider clothes ruined when a button pops out or a tear forms would be nice
Others have pointed out the concerns around negative reviews of things still subject to change, but the other aspect is just the relations with media.
I’m sure tons of journalists have been playing. And probably even working on content covering the game, but not publishing it yet. Once valve is ready for coverage they’ll have polished content ready. And valve can control the timing so that coverage happens right when they want the hype like maybe a few days before an open beta.
By covering it early you encourage other journalists to do the same, rushing out low quality content to get the views before others do. And for valve to not let any journalists see the game early to avoid this.
If anything the gap is bigger than ever as the top end shoes are basically performance enhancers like the nike airflys used to set most records…and their new vaporflys being banned in the Olympics.
I guess it’s better than hyper expensive shoes just being a paying for a brand thing?

walled gardens are only a little less awful when still supported
The commerce should be regulated imo- there’s a lot of bad things people will do for profit when not properly regulated.
That doesn’t prevent you from growing your own or consuming your buds bud, that’s just personal use and does not need to abide by the same regulations
I think starlink is more than that as even more things rely on a (good) Internet connection ingeneral than rely on satellites, and traditional connectivity methods leave many people underserved even in countries like America let alone the world.
It definitely has its problems, if nothing else that it’s privately owned and anyone who wanted to compete would then massively amplify those problems.
I think the argument of increased cheating has some merit, but less so in hugely popular games like fortnite. Because no anticheat is actually perfect and people who want to cheat will just use whatever method works. In a popular game like fortnite the demand is high enough that someone will find a way to cheat regardless of Linux support
well yes, but it’s profitable because customers continue to buy their products and services.
