Yeah why people just assume something like this will never happen? There will surely be more.

That's also a lie. There is no way it would be impossible to remove the protection code (or parts of it) or make it not execute. That alone makes him a clown.

I kill people in GTA 5. I don't kill people in Hentai Incest Generator 3000. Yet someone prefers to see my transaction only for the first one, citing damages to "the brand".

Except that Ukraine attacking Russia was a lie. Russia and hamas are aggressors.

Yes. I created the document in Google docs, and you opened it in Word.

I have a solution for this. Install a second AI that would control how the first one behaves. Surely it will guarantee nothing can go wrong.

Steam DRM is nothing like stuff people should be aware of. Ask any modder for confirmation.

Pretty much every single decision you can see from their history since the inception of EGS is either stupid or blatantly destructive to gaming industry. Just some examples: better revenue shares for developers? Sure but this translates into worse platform. Money bonuses for exclusivity is great for developers? Sure but the game is then stuck at the platform that gives no means for users to interact and let developers know how they could improve their product. Cross platform multiplayer platform that works? Sure but then we have to deal with stupid requirements like having an account on additional platforms we may not want to use, even to play single player modes sometimes.

You can also check Tim's Twitter and see how ignorant and hypocritical he is. I wouldn't mind it but his decisions seem to actually affect the whole platform and therefore the industry so... too bad.

There should be means that would allow fans and appreciators donate money to creators. And it looks like we already have a lot of those.

Also, culture and art should be promoted by governments. Therefore taxes could go that way too.

Anyway, it's not like people say it's fine for everyone to not pay. But at least we know it's fine for many to pay much less than the rest, see regional pricing and discounts. Creators are totally fine with those. Nothing prevents it from being extended further to people who have a hard time trying to become potential customers.

They just missed very old news about how games that depict illegal activities do not really cause people to do illegal activities. Therefore they can't be illegal themselves.

Software/game DRM/anticheat (as a service/product) that involves code obfuscation and/or kernel driver.

"I've found a workaround"

Workaround (according to article): "First of all, YouTube Premium"

The actual workaround (according to article): "Two words: uBlock Origin. Yes, I know that Google has blocked it from its Chrome Extension store, but there is still a way to get uBlock Origin on Chrome"

Seems like they are being paid by Google. Actual workaround should be to drop Chrome.

Unironically you're missing the point. The point being, it's not a problem for many apps to start because oh how powerful PCs got. The problem is when some apps use so much resources that regardless of how powerful your PC gets, it's wasteful to have them opened all the time.

Reason for that problem is them using unoptimized frameworks such as Electron and CEF (seriously, check each app on the image).

And main reasons for that are:

  • Google posing browser component as a GUI framework.

  • Devs not caring (or being lazy) enough to do native coding.

I wish every person would realize the above so we could force developers do their job better.

Steam is a product, Valve is a company.
