More common were race theories that put eastern people further up their imaginary hierarchy than others.

Don't choose the app I do as it will soon be discontinued. It has happened 3 times now :(

Yes, that is exactly what I'm saying.

Edit: And with Microsoft it's even more apparent as there were large proprietary operating systems before Microsoft got big.

Well you are wrong. I am not saying that this situation is fine. I am saying that it is not the individual company that is the main problem but the system that enables them to begin with.

Just dismantling valve is not a long term solution. It's short sighted. Without them there would be others in their footsteps. One needs to change the system to change that. Give companies opportunities and they will exploit them. I actually agree with the above comment that legislation / regulation is a solution to this problem.

That is why I am pissed off that I am called stupid and bootlicker. That is not a good way to discuss things and especially not a good way to get to an understanding.

And yes I do think that there is a high chance other big tech companies would've done worse than valve. Which is not a great endorsement for them to be clear.

Where did I say they are necessary? Where did I say you need a proprietary third party launcher?

What other statements do you want to put in my mouth?

Yes, Android. Why?

Don't be naïve. As long as greed is enabled in our society this or worse would've always been the outcome. Or do you think other companies would've slept on the opportunity?

Nice strawmen you got there. Where the fuck did you see me defend a billionaire?!

I am just being realistic here. Our current society enables greed and greed would've always led to this situation or worse. We need to change the system fundamentally to change that.

Yea, right. It would've been another platform to capitalize on the internet becoming more available and digital distribution becoming viable.

You mean like a Menu?

Being born into riches is extreme luck.

Or did most of us choose to live on hard difficulty?

(well most of us are probably on medium difficulty, do to the fact that we can post here)

Due to Internet propaganda I will never not gag when I see something about autism speaks
