CS was quite shitty for quite a while before I quit. Now it looks like it's recovering, the CS2 launch went well (apart from server issues) so there's definitely a reason to have hope. At least with valve.

Titanfall 2 also recovered, but that was always a good game. I'll even say it's the best shooter ever made period.

I don't have any hope for any of this improving.

The EU is currently working on legislation to search through all chat messages sent by everyone ever, so the only way to keep any privacy is to take it into your own hands.

French 80s cars are the most 80s cars.

So if I understand correctly, you define the border of piracy as the technicality of websites where the HTML and JS are accessible as opposed to a binary that comes with built-in DRM.

How do you think about DRM-free games?

When did I say piracy was wrong?

In this case it's apparently the only option.

Exxon won't give a shit, but apple probably will. Half of their marketing is greenwashing, so they'll have to think of something new.

Maybe some people will also understand that corporations aren't their friends, but with apple users that's a rather slim chance.

How about privacy.com?

It lets you create a virtual credit card for every subscription and the point is that you can cancel those with a single click, but it's also said to be a good way of keeping track of the subscriptions.

They already have plans to DRM the entire fucking web. That's why I am currently cutting google out of my life step by step.

Oh, that's from the installer and not one of those warnings you get after opening apps. Makes sense.

I missed that, thanks for pointing it out. The one without S is the correct one.

But that makes me wonder, how did OP not end up with two signal apps then?
