I'm sorry, Amazon complained about fake reviews!? They know what site they run right, and more to the point the behavior they almost explicitly condone on that site?

For the record, if you want to change the fact that the US president is not elected by popular vote, depending on your state there's an initiative called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact), where a bunch of states are setting up trigger laws so that when enough states with enough electoral college votes have signed it into law, each of those states will vote for the candidate who won the popular vote.

I think it's making fun of Elon calling the delay in his interview with Trump the result of a DDOS attack, when best case scenario it looks like it might have been caused by too much normal traffic straining the twitter servers trying to watch it.

I mean, that's kinda exactly what I said, Apple taking a 30% cut of any transaction that occurs on their devices/on apps downloaded from their store makes no sense, though I will add that Patreon takes a 8 - 12% cut depending on how much support they give the creator. As far as Steam goes, to my knowledge they don't take a cut out of in game purchases, only purchases that occur strictly on their platform. (Also I don't think they charge everyone the 30%)

30% is a reasonably cut for transactions that take place in your store, the main complaint I see about Apple and their store and the cut they take is that they want 30% of any money that goes through any of their devices at all, not just their app store. Relevant here, they are charging the 30% fee for people's memberships to creators on the platform, a process that is wholly separate from Apple's ecosystem unless the user is using apple pay to pay for it.

It was in the patch notes for the update that added the DLC to the game.

Wait really, they're adding Red Rescue Team!? Didn't Nintendo just release the remake of that game recently.

Oh no, it was four years ago, it feels like it was more recent than that.

A comment I saw recently said if someone is called weird and they agree with you, they are the good weird, but if you call them weird and they get defensive/aggressive they are the bad weird. You are clearly the good kind of weird, and I think everyone else will recognize that if you call yourself weird.

What even was the argument against the law?

Ok, why is there an RSS feed button is my question.

That's a bit of a disingenuous way to put it, it's reads to me more that they want to reach out/make official what some people were already doing.
