They’re certainly colluding to screw workers and consumers as much as possible. It benefits them to work together against the working class.

I’m playing Palia. It’s a cozy single/multiplayer survival-ish game. I love that it has very low friction. So far I’m having a great time playing while I listen to podcasts or YouTube

Yeah feature parity made sense in the beginning so the S didn’t get left behind but at this point its place feels secure to me. It’s the cheap option. I think most gamers understand that and accept the trade-offs that are inherent in that choice.

We often forget that big companies have been broken up before.

It’s more important to me to consider the ethics or morality of the situation rather than the legality. Laws, especially in the US, are built to protect those in power, aka those with money.

The cinema either.
