  • Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam?

  • I just did a cursory search online and the only markup I could fine below 30% was cellphones at about 8-10% and groceries at 5-25%. Now, I wouldn't make a wager on the precise accuracy of a cursory glance but it's telling that even in a Capitalist society, no ones denying their huge markups. Most sources list the markup on cloths to be 50-400%

  • It can be challenging for members of the ruling class to set themselves apart from each other socially with wealth alone so they attempt to do so in other ways such a patronage or association with intellectuals. Voltaire is a useful Archetype to understand the concept because so much is known about him.

  • Steam provides more than just a one time exchange of download for money, so I wouldn't exactly compare it to a store where you walk out the door and your exchange is completed. As a leftists, I think Steam makes too much money and should charge less and pay more but in a capitalist nation i don't see Epic having a successful case

  • TIL the US Military operates a massive non-profit "socialist" grocery chain called the Commissary. It is taxpayer-subsidized and sells goods at cost

  • Free Healthcare and and Higher education are the main reasons enlisted soldiers join the US military; both things that countries that aren't Empires offer to all their citizens.

  • Members of Congress will be able to view unredacted Epstein files next week

    Jump

  • They're only letting congress read unredacted versions of files they've already released to the public in redacted form. So nothing unvetted is being released to congress.

  • In fact, Russia’s main ally in the region is Iran which is a mortal enemy of Israel.

    Some days Putin and Netanyahu are frenemies, other days Putin and Netanyahu are frenemies. Business is business as they say.

  • I remember looking for porn for the first time at a buddies house and we couldn't even figure it out. It never dawned on us to type "porn" into the search engine. Just two 13 year olds going "type in girls, damn, ok, try babes. Nothing? What about chicks?"

  • I haven't really looked deeply into this issue but what caught my eye was the claim that a 30% fee was excessive. I'm no insider into video game publishing but 30% is the standard retail markup for many things. If you bought a candy bar today, it probably cost the mini mart you bought it from 70% of what they're charging.
