The difference is, I think, just how much of the content or there is hosted in America. If they succeed in forcing local companies to follow some new draconian measure, it’ll likely have a disproportionately high effect on non-US traffic.

So, Trump is better? Yeah, we know he sucks. We also know Trump is far, far worse. But you know this, don’t you?
What is your plan, exactly? By not voting Biden, you help Trump, and he WILL directly cause far more death and suffering.
What am I missing, here?
Well, for starters, you seem to be missing anything resembling a coherent argument… 🤪
But… they’ve long since figured out how to monetize without the content. So, that’s a hard disagree from me…
No. Read it again. I never said allegation. I never referenced court proceedings. I said the act of rape is indefensible.
If you commit rape, there is no “decent” defense. If you didn’t, then my comment doesn’t apply. Simple as that.
There is no excuse for sexual violence, and there never will be.
Your reply is completely unrelated to what I said. There is no such thing as a decent defense for raping someone. If they didn’t rape anyone, good! If they did, that is an indefensible act by its very nature.
I made no comment at all on whether or not any specific individual is guilty or not. So I’m really confused what your point is here…?
Your choice of words was absolutely terrible. There is no such thing as a decent defense of rape. Now, an effective defense in our busted legal system? That’s a whole different story. But “decent” does not apply in cases of sexual assault and violence. Ever.
I’ve always figured a company will go public before enshitification truly gets underway. It’s kinda the first step of the process.
I guess my argument is that until that pressure to appease the stockholders exists, there’s not a whole lot of motive to justify enshitification. It’s hard for me to imagine the process happening any other way.
So, I suppose you can count my vote as being that going public will likely come first. Just my two cents, though, and I don’t know anything anyway! :-p
I’m a little bit confused by your post. Publicly-traded companies, by and large, place extraordinary emphasis on short term, quarter by quarter profit. Seems like a very strong contender for the root cause if the issue?
Enshitification is about monetization, getting more money from the same customer base.
Doesn’t this statement support publicly traded status being a riot cause, though?
I must assume I’m misunderstanding your argument…?
To replace a corporate executive? No, I don’t think so. We already have algorithms more than capable of replacing CEOs. There is nothing that challenging in what they do…
Nah. Until I meet a “freeze peach” nutcase who isn’t blatantly acting in bad faith, I see no reason to legitimize their crap…
Ugh. So many places in the world already have abundance that is hard to imagine; but that’s only the case because of extreme hoarding of resources and wealth.
I don’t know if I love or hate your comment. (Yes, you’re right, shut up.) Well played, Internet stranger.
A glorified chatbot, in other words.
I think you may have misunderstood. The entire point is to have an academic term that would never be used as a search by one of those inhuman lowlifes.
I don’t mean to be pedantic, so I hope my meaning came across well enough…
Well, you’d know better than I would, of course!
If it is the disc, I’d take it to my local game store and have them run it through their disc buffing machine. I guess I just want to encourage you to not blame the disc too hastily. Honestly, without visible scratches or damage, it’s very rarely the disc. Like…almost never.
Is the disc badly scratched or otherwise physically damaged? Usually, if your disc is the problem, you’ll be able to tell by looking at it.
If the disc is in good condition, then the problem might lie with your console. Hopefully it’s just a dirty lens, but given how long that console was released, the motor in your optical drive could be wearing out. Do you have similar problems in any other games?
That’s not how investments work. If I put my money into purchasing a printer, I invested in that purchase. Not the other way around. Ffs
Huh, didn’t realize that. I understand a lot of the physical servers for those kinda companies are in the upper Midwest, but I never thought about where thire HQ is at; you make some excellent points.
There is definitely a fight brewing over who has final say in regards to what happens on the Internet. Gonna be interesting seeing how this plays out.
