X advertisers stay away as CEO defends Musk’s “go f*** yourself” interview
  • The concept of speaking freely is not exclusive to legislation. Musk specifically bought this platform because, according to himself, he saw it as an important place for human discourse and the freedom to speak your mind was being inhibited by the policies around moderation. Which is ironic because he implements policies that ban you for speaking out over arbitrary topics while the previous policies simply banned hate speech.

  • Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuit
  • Pretty much. Meanwhile other stores engage in actual behaviour that deserves an anti-trust lawsuit like buying up developer studio's and making their games exclusive to their own platforms. Or paying devs to make games exclusive to their store temporarily. You know, things that actually screw the consumer over.

  • Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuit
  • Valve has been the market leader for years and still hasn't let the consumer down. Their business strategy comes down to offering us the best possible service. Meanwhile crappy stores like Epic Games try to lure you in with free games and timed exclusives and I still gave up on their featureless mess of a platform.

  • Yeh seriously
  • Criticising Judaism doesn't make you an anti-semite. There's valid criticisms to be raised against most religions, this can be done without resorting to hostility or prejudice.

  • YouTuber Jirard (a.k.a. The Completionist) has been accused of keeping and hoarding charity donations
  • He's already caught in a lie. Even if his unbelievable story that he, the director of the charity, was unaware the charity never did anything charitable for as long as it has existed (this already makes him guilty of failing the donators by incompetence), he still lied about knowing where the money went for all those years to the donators and CONTINUED TO DO SO AFTER HE ADMITTED HE KNEW ABOUT IT.

    Now he claims that he has been looking for worthy charities for over a year while he could easily just donate the money to the charities he has been talking about for years already.

  • What's the worst that could happen?
  • You could start reviving unwilling souls (theurgy school).

    You could also remove the HP requirement from power word kill to kill any creature instantly.

    Disintegrate without having to fail the dex save is also pretty funny.

  • How should I handle an ex friend who feels like he needs to bully me to raise his own self esteem? (We're adults)
  • You were commiting fraud. He did nothing wrong by reporting you. Don't want to get reported? Don't commit fraud.

    I'd agree if they were colleagues/strangers. I would never report a friend for that. I'd voice my opinion at the most but reporting them is effectively nuking the friendship.
