Damn, all this time Hexbear was actually getting paid?

This is a different country, and different culture. It's been in the news for years now that Koreans are literally working themselves to death. To the point they just fall over and die. There's been many protests trying to get the government to step in and change things, but so far capitalism has done its thing and people are still dying. If they don't keep working, they lose their livelihoods. Some people work 80 hour work weeks in dangerous conditions, just to barely afford an apartment not much bigger than a closet. There's no other option for them, except to starve.

If you want more context, there's quite a few good documentaries on YouTube about the issue.

Premium still gives them hardly anything. Subscribing to their Patreon is better because they get all your money, minus the small fee.

Of course it is! But Peter Thiel isn't bipartisan, so idk what that has to do with his involvement in Brave. He self-identifies as far-right. Not leftist, liberal, or independent. And since we're talking specifically about Brave and Thiel, I don't really care about whataboutism in this context.

Wait till they find out photographers spend their whole careers trying to emulate the style of previous generations. Or that Adobe has been implementing AI-driven content creation into Photoshop and Lightroom for years now, and we've been pretending we don't notice because it makes our jobs easier.

I mean, they do have them on record lying about it, so not that bold.

GOG also offers Linux versions of any games that have such a version.

This isn't the last stand. This is the latest stand. While this fight might seem the biggest, never forget it's not the last we'll have to take part in. If this fails, they'll keep coming with some new idea later on down the road in order to deny us our right to privacy. Don't give up. Keep giving them hell every step of the way.

Did you just wake up today and decide to be an asshole, or is this your usual temperament?

Have you, or are you planning to, stalk someone? Because that sounds like something a stalker would propose.

Report them so they can just die from heatstroke instead? Bet you call the cops on single mothers shoplifting food for their kids too, don't you?

Admin says no, the links have to be to a middleman site without automatic redirects.
