You can't trust ebay ratings either because if you have a bad experience they often won't let you post a review

[We still strive to get as many DRM-free titles as possible on GOG, regardless of when they were first released.]

This is why I will always buy a game on GOG rather than Steam if I can.

Extended Support Release,

Hey thanks for the info. I didn't know about this.

Yes. I can't imagine being foolish enough to automatically update your external dependencies when you don't need to.

Yes. Sounds like the law itself is flawed.

The point of including worldwide stock is to reduce risk in case the US has a recession, as not all other countries will be affected by that.

This seems to be generally no longer true.

Companies should not even be issuing future "earnings expectations". They mean little and warp the market. Drives me crazy when I hear financial talk about "future p/e'. It's just a fake number. The only real p/e ratio is the trailing p/e ratio.

Bogleheads three fund portfolio (total US stock + total world stock + bonds) is very simple yet will beat most actively-managed portfolios over the long run.

This is right. But you don't really need the 'total world stock'. I reduced my allocation of that to 2% because it was dragging down my returns.

The law only cares what they do to other companies.

Apple doesn't allow other companies to have their own app stores. Which google already did allow, they just didn't make it easy to install one.

Apple is MUCH worse in restricting app stores. It makes no sense that Apple can continue to get away with their far worse restrictions than google. On the positive side this will make Android even better and more attractive to consumers vs AOS than it already was.
