$843 million lawsuit against Valve already has its own website: "The Steam Claim" accuses the biggest store in PC gaming of "overcharging" players
  • The fact you're setting an arbitrary limit of cash in a bank account shows how little you've thought about this. Rich people have money in the bank, sure, but the vast amount of their wealth is in stocks, property, and other assets. Also, assuming rich people have one bank account they keep all their money in is foolish. You have to spread your cash around to multiple accounts and even banks in order to not exceed the amount the government is willing to insure.

  • With the recent issues of transgender people in sports, why don’t we move some sports over to a weight-class system?
  • American ninja warrior has had more and more women making it farther and farther in the competition every year. There are still handicaps in place to make sure at least some women make it to the finals but after that there are no handicaps. At this point, even if they removed all the handicaps there would still be women that reach the finals, just not as many. It's been very interesting to watch.

    The announcers still try to hype up the women's achievements but at this point most of the big barriers have been broken. They've had to resort to stuff like, "if she gets a buzzer here she'll be only the second mom to get a buzzer in qualifying!". It's kind of silly at this point.

  • The debate gets interesting sometimes
  • There's a very good chance...

    This is how you know you have brain worms. Biden has to keep the Jewish liberal vote so he's supporting Israel. He also needs congress to fund ukraine which they won't do without also funding Israel.

    If anything, Biden turns his back on bibi as soon as the election is over and throws him to the wolves. Netanyahu is doing everything he can to get trump elected.

  • Valve faces a £656 million lawsuit in the UK for 'overcharging 14 million PC gamers'
  • I think we're talking past each other. By 'popular' I do not mean 'well liked'. Just that it was used by a lot of people. 2004, in my opinion, was when steam took off and the downloading updates from random websites phase of pc gaming died. There was a transition, to be sure, but the writing was on the wall. We just didn't know it at the time.

  • DeSantis Claims Florida Marijuana Legalization Ballot Measure Will Let People 'Bring 20 Joints To An Elementary School'
  • Even needing 60% it'll pass. Medical Marijuana passed 71-29 in 2016. We've had cbd stores and dispensaries on every other corner here in Tampa for the last five years and no one gives a shit. Floridians travel to Nevada, California, Colorado, and other states and see that's its not a big deal.

    I predict at least 70% vote for it. I'll be floored if it gets less than 65%.

  • Valve faces a £656 million lawsuit in the UK for 'overcharging 14 million PC gamers'
  • That's a valid opinion. It's not one I share but if you preferred that situation then that's fine. I feel pretty confident saying you are in a pretty small minority though.

    -edit I just realized what you said and if it's true that you did most of your pc gaming before steam got popular, you may be out of your depth in this conversation. It's been like 20 years. If you did most of your pc gaming more than 20 years ago, I don't see how your opinion is informed at all.
