Not in my experience. I typically don't buy AAA titles, but more smaller or indie games. If they got performance issues at launch, and there are no crashes or they were fixed, performance is the next issue getting tackled.

Also these days there's really no excuse for buying and keeping games that aren't playable for you. There's zero reason to pre-order anyway, so just watch reviews when they release. Or test the game yourself and just refund in the refund window if it doesn't run properly. Check back after a few months (or years, depending on patience and/or size of backlog).

Yes totally. I would trust any company to always do this the right way. And there would never be an incident where some footage gets leaked, or passed around the office. "Oops there must have been a malfunction".

Yes like Amazon AND Google haven't been caught saving private conversations that their voice assistants recorded totally unintentionally even though they weren't triggered. They did totally say "sorry" and won't do it again, ever. Right? Right?

Sounds nice until you think about the implications for everyone that doesn't vandalize or destroy these bikes. I'm most certainly not going to rent one if it has 360° surveillance capabilities.

I would love to "get off Patreon", but since I want to support the creators that I do, I can only do that where they are. Exactly one of them is on ko-fi, everyone else is only on Patreon.

... and Amazon games. People who have or had prime accounts often have large amounts of free games on there from claiming them in the past (often via twitch).

Yes it's very good they now changed this, because if you manually select a proton version you also override the default. Steam actually knows which proton to use for almost every game if the global setting is just on.

I understand that. You said "I think it means" and it is not at all what it means. It's probably what they want to say by using these words, but isn't what they (the words) mean. It probably is where they (the authors) mean. And that also isn't what you said either, hence my comment.

That's not what the word means though.

Here that doesn't change or help in any way. You're the one on the contract for the Internet access, so you're responsible. That's it.

You can operate as an ISP, but the requirements and responsibilities that go with that make this a non-starter. From my (limited) understanding, it includes that if you can't provide the identity of someone who is being sued (including piracy, but also any other law breaking), you're responsible.

Just as s comment for someone else reading this: if this actually has a chance to protect you is highly dependant on your local laws. Even then, at least from my understanding, any lawsuit has to progress relatively far (involving lawyers to a significant degree) for this to become potentially relevant.

That also means you can't downvote just wrong information anymore. Look at YouTube, which disabled down votes and nothing got better. And their votes weren't even public.

I think that's a terrible idea.
