If it's a grave of someone in living memory, then sure, it's grave robbing, but even if someone knows it's their 224x great grandparent then if there's no memory either directly or even via oral history then it's definitely archaeology

There's a very blury line somewhere between the two, but it's up to whoever shouts loudest or digs quietest to define that

Are they identical objects?

Why do supermarkets stupidly pay rent in Manhattan, London, LA or Singapore when they could pay next to nothing to have a store in the Outback or Siberia?

If there's a gold rush, you want to run the railroads, build the houses, sell the shovels and open the general store I guess

One reason is that Epic are very dismissive of Linux, while Steam go out of their way to be supportive and GOG are supportive when it's convenient

Another is trying to lock games into exclusives with them, which other distribution platforms don't do so much

That said, if you don't play games without cross platform multiplayer and don't care about Linux support or see yourself caring any time soon, there's not a huge reason to push you towards steam and away from epic. GOG is more of an anti-DRM thing, however barring sales the price and the cut for the devs is identical on all of them and it's the same game aside from DRM.

Exactly... The issue isn't spotify taking a very normal cut, it's the record labels taking a majority cut and it seems this bill misses that entirely

Oh no I see the point, but I'm hardly going to believe a point that's surrounded by obvious mistakes or embellishments

If at least 1 person in the room of 400 is shot per day they'd be dead in just over a year...

Last I checked the population of the US wasn't plummeting, so what else is wrong here?

Oh no, are you having hallucinations? Because last I checked the majority of coups in former French Africa were Russia/Wagner backed so there's no strawman in sight.

A real gentleman would probably say "conjecture" or "unfounded information", but a less explicit word is "nonsense"

Pay a bunch of tax on it then wonder what to do with my extra 580€ a month
