30% seems rather high

but... when they handle payments, refunds, advertising (within their application) and game download costs (server infrastructure?), etc etc etc. it doesnt seem that crazy.

at least, for a lot of indie developers, not having to worry about those things, might easily be worth those 30%

He has 2 sons

maybe they can take over - and not fuck it up (they literally have to do nothing to achieve success!)

im not TOO surprised.

they're a non-profit company after all. they're not political activists etc.

that said, it hardly matters, because its open source.

There has not been any inflation that justifies a x2 increase in price

Trump is leading the polls.

so if you currently think "im not gonna vote", then you're giving trump a head start

A majority of the non-voters are more likely to vote for the democrats. thats also why the republicans are making it as difficult as possible to vote. coz they know, the more who vote, the less likely they are at winning

I think in my country that's called "Stemmespild"

which basically means wasted-vote.

if a political party wants to enter the parliament, they gotta get at least 2% of the votes. so if you vote for one of the very unpopular parties and they only get ~1.5% you've effectively wasted your vote completely (This is how it works in my country - of course things are different in the US)
