Isn’t Mint a version of Ubuntu?

So it would be effective at preventing your site from being used as training data.

Not surprising. I had to remove my credit card information from Amazon because I kept getting automatically signed up for Prime without my consent.

Because you think you have a full monopoly and everyone has no option but to put up with it.

Because “everyone else is doing the same thing” isn’t a form of dismissing the problem and burying your head in the sand.

US exceptionalism once again.

“We’re not shit, everyone is shit! But we’re better at being shit than everyone else!”

Okay then.

Capitalism is a shit system, but it took ~200 years to corrupt to this point because the power is more distributed (at first).

The US is reaching the average lifespan of an Empire. Capitalism has not been particularly good at preventing collapse, it has been about average.

The article from July explains why Steam banned this game last month, despite Itch (which stopped selling certain games due to the payment processors) is selling it?

Who is this article writer that can see 4 months into the future?!

You claimed Steam banned this because of the payment processors. The same payment processors being used by stores that didn’t ban this. Seems a relevant point to the discussion we are having.

Do the other stores hosting the game have the same payment processors?

Steam hasn’t banned adult games. That is proven with a quick search of Steam’s catalog.

the slippery slope starts somewhere.

You know slippery slope is a fallacy right? The “slippery slope” can also stop anywhere.

When did I (or anyone else) exert pressure on Steam to not carry this? My understanding is this is a decision Steam made.

I don’t know but don’t give up. Try reading my post again, take it slow, I’m sure your can work it out.

That’s not how that works. You don’t get to decide what a store does and does not sell. Steam refuses hundreds of games a year, this one doesn’t get special treatment.

Saying “I understand why (store) would not want to carry this product” is not the same as saying “no store should carry this product.”

drawing a murder isn’t murder and drawing Noncon isn’t rape.

Drawing people having sex isn’t sex, but it is porn. Verbally attacking someone isn’t assault, but it can be abuse. Drawing a comic where someone tortures and then kills the president of the United States isn’t murder, but it will get the FBI knocking on your door.

The scene where a little girl asks to ride a naked man, and then rides a naked man? You don’t see why that might be problematic?

Considering there website proudly shows it is banned on Steam I’m sure this was done on purpose for the publicity.

Why did Epic ban it though? They didn’t get the ‘tainted’ preview version and normally love to have games that aren’t on Steam.

It’s all gone downhill since

I don’t understand why these assholes insist on people working more hours. What’s the difference to them between 1 person working 70 hours a week or 2 people working a combined total of 70 hours if they’re both paid the same hourly rate?
