This probably doesn’t matter, but I’m neither terminally online nor am I from US. And I do recommend everybody to watch John Oliver, it’s usually relevant to everybody.

Everything mentioned in this I’ve already seen covered elsewhere, for the most part by John Oliver. Don’t see why it’s being spammed all over Lemmy. Just because this particular piece was being supposed we gotta “stick it to the man” and share it among the dozens of lemmings?
What kind of cat eats rice? Mine barely eats cat food…
Umm, I’m sorry to be the one to tell you, guys, but my PC has that exact BIOS screen and it’s 10 years old. They aren’t that “new”.
Careful, you might summon John Oliver.
I think it was “somehow, he returned”.
What happened to the piefed account?


It used to be a really popular subject of discussion in normal-people-internet a couple years ago when it was released.


The whole reasoning and especially MacOS exclusion are so contrived that it just has to be.


I’m pretty sure you guys just took the bait. This is either satire or ragebait.
When there is no T800


In comparison to Valve, even entire CD Projekt Red is tiny.
I think people forget to mention the benefit of having standardized hardware. I build my own PCs, but I’m still considering the cube, because I know there will be optimizations targeted directly at it.


You are free to support or not support whoever you see fit. If supporting Linux is hard requirement for you, so be it. But in my personal opinion, they do deserve support, in the very least because they sell most of their games DRM-free, giving consumer the ability to keep their games forever.


They do the good that they do. Is there a minimal amount of good one must do to be promoted from “fair-weather friend”? GOG is not a behemoth like Valve, they have to pick their fights more carefully. Also, they are preserving the games for the vast majority of people, on the platform those games were designed for. And since Proton/Wine progress is going well, the games are by extension preserved on other OSes.
I didn’t say I’m not online, but I’m not “terminally online”. Also, IMO “most people” are more online than me, they just don’t read/watch informative stuff.
