It looks like only about 20 people walked out, and it isn't clear at all from any sources what it is he supposedly said and how it came to transpire, other than the fact that one of the things he said was in direct response to a question asked of him, and someone in the facebook thread seems to indicate the person they had moderating had a hand in the nonsense. Someone also said that the submissive comment was him talking about how women were treated at the time.

Yes, like refunds it'll probably get sorted the first time someone's estate with a bit of money tries to will it to someone and then they take Valve to court/make a complaint to the EU.

The EU has already taken care of it.
The Court of Justice of the European Union found that a
copyright owner exhausts the right of distribution to a copy of a computer
program once he sells, or authorizes the sale of, the copy. This means that whoever purchased the
computer program can resell it and the copyright holder cannot control the
resale of the copy. The Court found that
this exhaustion principle applies whether the copy is on a tangible medium like
a CD-ROM or DVD or an intangible download from the Internet, and it also
applies to corrected and updated programs that the copyright owner sells. Furthermore, the Court made clear that contract
clauses that deny the customer the right to transfer his copy of the computer
program are void.

The best method I've found for using it is to help you with languages you may have lost familiarity in and to walk it through what you need step by step. This lets you evaluate it's reasoning. When it gets stuck in a loop:
Try A!
Actually A doesn't work because that method doesn't exist.
Oh sorry Try B!
Yeah B doesn't work either.
You're right, so sorry about that, Try A!
Yeah.. we just did this.
at that point it's time to just close it down and try another AI.

The best part is the mods who don't remove posts where people celebrate someone being killed, or suggest someone be killed because they disagree with them. The unfiltered bigotry is really the second best part of the fediverse /s

Yeah, romanizing Asian names is done poorly to be honest. I saw it a lot in Korea. They had this 'official' system that they followed, but to be honest it mostly caused more issues. The common joke at the olympics was the Korean guy named suk, but it was pronounced more like sock than suck. and if they'd just spelled it like that , it would eliminate those jokes entirely. Spelling it pawn or pon would eliminate that connotation completely.

Years ago, probably.. 2006 or 2007, Microsoft had some kind of deal online where you could get Age of Empires 3 for 99 cents, it wasn't that old at the time. Bought it on my hotmail back in the day, but lost that when Microsoft decided they desperately needed to wipe e-mails for people.

Yeah, they claim it's because of 'local distributors' to that region not giving them the subtitles, but I know, for example, that Korean movies are 99.5% always released on DVD, even in Korea with English subtitles. Yet in Korea, half the Korean content wouldn't have English subtitles, yet in other markets it did. Ironic that my spouse and I find it easier to consume Korean content outside of Korea than inside Korea.
You see this on youtube as well. Inside Korea a lot of movies are available through youtube with Korean subtitles embedded on them. They're cheap too, Often you can get new movies for under $5 (purchased, not rented), older ones can often be around $1. Same movie in another country, no subtitle, or certainly not Korean subtitles. Youtube has native subtitle support and they don't use it. At least we can VPN into Korean youtube and purchase things.
Amazon is bad for it. If you go into a show and look at the subtitles some of them are clickable. Meaning it searches by that subtitle language to show you more content that has that language as a subtitle. Problem is their subtitles are regional and they don't filter based on region. So when you search for Korean you might get 100 results with less than 30% actually having Korean subtitles. But they return the result because they have Korean subtitles in another region. My guess is in the US or Japan as Korea does not have it's own Amazon region since they don't operate there.
Disney plays its own games. Extraordinary season 2 is missing most of the Asian subtitles that were available for season 1. So we can't pick that up even though we enjoyed season 1.
Being a multicultural family and trying to consume content legitimately is exhausting to be honest.

The worst part is when they geo-block accessibility. Netflix likes to make subtitles regional. In their mind no one ever moves to another part of the world to a country where they aren't 100% fluent in the language. Doesn't happen. I'm assuming their execs don't hire any staff in their mansions that aren't completely bilingual. You compare this to something like Disney and Apple who have a subtitle list a mile long on every show, Netflix will just heavily region restrict and even restrict subtitle availability by profile language. Lived in Korea, on my english profile Korean subtitles were available. A month after moving to an English speaking country, Korean subtitles disappeared from my profile (on the android TV app, they're still there in Desktop view, sometimes). A korean profile on the same android TV app? Korean is a choice. Their android TV app just cuts off several subtitle options for no reason.

Another angle isn't going to show anyone else shooting first. This isn't the George Lucas cut.
this video has more angles: https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/traffic-stop-shootout-chicago-police-dexter-reed-escalate/ of course you could have been there and he could have looked at you and said 'I'm going to shoot the police first' and you would have witnessed him doing it and you'd still be saying the exact same things right now.
Is anyone watching this? I feel like I missed a prequel or something. The story just seems to start in the middle and then throws around so many flashbacks, but I don't think it does it in a good way. Reminds me a bit of Jupiter's Legacy in how heavy and poorly it uses them. We're 4 episodes in and there is still no real clarification of the motive of almost anyone in the show.
Piracy adjacent here. We have a printer, colour laserjet, that is from another 'region', was a really nice printer and we bought it just before moving and decided to bring it. There is an equivalent printer here with the same cartridges but we've found out they're 'region locked'. Brand is HP/Samsung. I was wondering if anyone knows if third party cartridges which work around the chip also work around the region protection? We can actually region reset our printer, however 2/4 toner cartridges still have quite a bit in them so we'd like to use those up completely before switching. Anyone know much about this?

can't even post a thread in this magazine. So my question: are we going to be defederating instances that don't crack down on users supporting and advocating terrorism? [\#kbinMeta](https://kbin.social/tag/kbinMeta)
Per the title. Just wondering if we're going to see any response if we start seeing users from particular instances spreading terrorist propaganda or supporting them.

Did Google help reddit? A short time ago the score for the reddit app was down around 3.2 as everyone gave it 1 star for how bad it was and all the drama going on. I just opened the play store today and the app has a 4.2. Did Google delete or discount some of those reviews?
This has been broken for awhile now, just wondering if there is an alternative method or some indication when it's going to be fixed? As magazines get larger, they're going to require additional mods to help moderate them. Currently it doesn't seem possible to add anyone as any time you go to the moderator tab on a magazine, it just gives an error. I did once, for 30 seconds get a page to load, but haven't seen it since.

It looks like a new spamming tactic will be to set up your own instance and then just mass spam to other instances from there. Case in point, **vive.im** I've been noticing spam in one magazine from a user of this. I banned them, but they can still post for some reason. Decided to visit the instance and it looks like some default front page with '3' active users. If you look at the user's account on there they've made 12k posts already and seem to have a script set up to push their blogspam 3-4 times per minute. 1. We need a clear process to report and get these kinds of things removed quickly. 2. Bans need to work properly and stop these users from posting.
Why can a banned user from another instance continue to post to my magazine? He's clearly in the ban log but can still post. [\#kbinMeta](https://kbin.social/tag/kbinMeta)
How do I ban a user from another instance? Tried to ban, but just getting an error. We can't really block spam in our magazines if we can't stop users from posting there. [\#kbinMeta](https://kbin.social/tag/kbinMeta)
