Exploding Heads exploded. They’re not on lemmy anymore.

If that works for you, great! I’m going to keep pirating games without demos though.

If you check their websites, often you can find maps that can show you the locations of nearby stores that sell their products.

Most people don’t want freedom. They want rules and mods to enforce them so they don’t see things that they find offensive.

If everything is self-hosted, why would community wishes matter? Just block the people that disagree with you and do what you want. If you’re getting abused, block the abusers. If people are disruptive, ignore them. That’s pretty much how the internet used to work back when we were using forums and personal sites instead of modern social media.

If you refund too often they will consider it “abuse” and stop letting you do it.

No. Demos are rare and games are expensive.

I think the only way it could work would be if everyone had their own self-hosted site, otherwise the admin/owner would have power over the users. With everyone using their own individual instance, they can block content they don’t want to see but no one has any power over others.

It would be too complicated for normal people to set up and use, and most wouldn’t want to pay for hosting when they can use Facebook for “free”.

Not sure what that expression is.

Zidane vibes.

I would be upset if I paid for an ad. I would probably stop being a fan.

Frogs are similar to cats in this way.

They didn’t actually give them an iPhone so it wasn’t that bad.

If the average person does not support those things, why do you hate them?

The average person does not support those things. It is not reasonable to judge people for things different people did in the past.

Hate is not reasonable.

You shouldn’t be prejudiced against people.

Most religious people that you’re actually going to meet don’t want to kill you.

“You can only switch family groups once every 12 months.”

I don’t think he ever intended to make music of a specific genre. He just does what he wants.

I like The Downward Spiral and With Teeth. I don’t think either suck.

There is a difference between criticizing a religion, criticizing all religion, and hating or mocking religious people. The first two are okay, the third is not.
