If you need to type out 1000 lines of basically the exact same text with one variable swapped each time, you have a lot of software dev learning to do.

If you need comments to explain what is happening (and not why it is happening), then you've got some bad code that needs refactoring.

Then you'd be laughing in the face of some poor schmoe who just works there and has no say in this matter, unfortunately.

It depends. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I'm assuming it was hyperbole, not literal.

This seems a bit like missing the forest for the trees. Steam does not really let you know if the game is DRM-free, does not guarantee it will stay that way, and does not provide a reliable way to back these games up in a way where they could be used without the launcher.

Start selling games without DRM that only use the launcher to update and it’s better than steam.

So... GOG?

I'm fairly sure it's just a joke comment.

"This game requires a constant online connection"

This is the dumbest take.

They never had a "biblical right" because there is no such thing.

Out of curiosity, do you consider the sentence below to be a direct incitement to actionable violence?

"It would be patriotic if someone were to stop Person X from enacting their agenda, even if they used force."

If yes, what exactly qualifies it as a "direct incitement"?

Additionally, would you say it makes a difference whether the sentence above is said by Joe Shmoe vs televised and said by a powerful person with many followers hanging at their every word?
