Is that the same thing we Americans refer to as an "English Muffin"? I always thought crumpets were cookies or something lol.

So I'm not here to like defend Amazon or anything, but what are you talking about? Prime, imo, has definitely been getting a bit better in terms of content lately. The only stuff that has commercial ads in it as far as I'm aware are the pseudo-live TV channels they recently started streaming, and the content provided by "freevee" if said content isn't also under the prime label. This is all assuming you pay for a prime account, idk what the service is like if you're accessing it for free to begin with.

Generally the type of people who make graffiti worth looking at aren't the sort of people who want to draw with a tablet and stylus.

Fuckin' yikes.

Congress is a representation of corporate interest and little more. Maybe there's some religion in there too, but it's definitely not representing the average American citizen.

Then you wait until you get home or to an otherwise appropriate venue. No one wants to hear a tutorial they didn't ask for about putting up drywall on their commute home or in the grocery store.

Years ago I would've argued real money is backed by something like gold, but here we are now, basing most currency globally off the USD which is just fiat money. So yeah, there really isn't anything making USD more legitimate than Bitcoin as long as humans are associating value to it.

I'm not really sure how to prove this in a Lemmy comment without doxing myself, so suffice it to say that yes, I would gladly lay down my life to defend my beliefs.

Fuck that, get violent. Revolutions are never bloodless.

I mean, the people making them, for one.

This is a bad take in general, if your computer can't handle running steam it probably can't handle many games to begin with. It's the least intrusive option presented so far in terms of DRM, and steam has done more for the Linux gaming market with Proton than any other company afaik. You have to launch steam to avoid games wanting to do things like denuvo or kernel level anti-cheat which is WAY worse, and those of us on Linux need steam running while we game for additional reasons. This complaint about not wanting to look at a storefront is just petty, especially when I'm pretty sure there are settings to open it directly to your library.
