I'd be down with Valve making a proprietary distribution of SteamOS that's easily installable, and works with other CPUs.

The fallout that proceeded the presidential election in 2016. Will be regarded as one of the most significant turning points in American history and political culture. Combine a narcissistic sociopath (Trump) and a global communication platform (insert SV social media company/service). The result is a base of unremarkable individuals who lives revolve around them and their entitled "rights", and anyone that disagrees is automatically the enemy.
Certain States allow you to attach your Gmail to your literal identity. Allowing quick authorization to sensitive information. It's interesting in concept, but dystopian in application. At least in the United States. Alphabet and the federal government shaking hands is somewhat unsettling.
It'd be great if the federal government invested in proprietary capital instead of just dumping money into Private Corp. I guess that's capitalism for you, but that's just getting off topic now.
You're absolutely right, complacency on behalf of the consumers is what has given rise to the trend of spending real physical money on in-game currency.
The problem with DLC, is that content is undifferentiated. Meaning things like skins, music, artwork, etc. Are in the same boat as new zones/maps, characters, equipment, etc. Publishers use FOMO by bundling cosmetics with actual 'new' experienceable content.
"Your" shows possession (your car). "You're" is a contraction of "you are" (you're happy).
I think the person you're replying to is being facetious or at least centric based on your comment. Saying no good guys, alluding to the fact that the actors involved are all guilty of atrocities in some way. Not that they're trying to be "politically correct", but then again, I could be entirely wrong... ¯\_༼ •́ ͜ʖ •̀ ༽_/¯
