Do you not know how this site works
It is decentralized.
Just don’t live on a homeworld, those have… troubles.
Well actually…
Somehow I missed part of your comment, and thought you were saying silicone isn’t a petroleum product.
I’ll just… idk, seems a little late to take a break
hydrocarbons that are derived from either oil or natural gas.
…which makes it a petroleum product.
Wii isn’t Skyward Sword or Twilight Princess?
Yeah but you don’t have money to sue for
is now forced to work until they die
As if that’s not already the case

So if we just assume this random wiki with no sourcing is correct…
Steam has more games than everyone else, DRM on Steam is the developer/publisher’s choice, Steam still has more DRM-free games than Origin does, and how many of the ones Origin has are exclusives that don’t count?

This is the same kinda shit that Valve / publishers pulled when Steam launched, though.
Irrelevant.
Because trying to sue 4 giant companies at once on shaky legal ground is exceedingly stupid.
While trying to sue just 1 giant company on shaky legal ground is inadvisable.
They’re responding to the “Light Bulb Companies” part, not the “selling quality products” part. That video very clearly (10-15 mins too long) shows that Light Bulb Companies had legitimate reasons for limiting light bulb hours.
While the Phoebus Cartel may have artificially limited the lifespan of lightbulbs, there was a legitimate reason to do so, and it wasn’t just planned obsolescence so you buy more.
Because it takes time to get that potential.
The sellers want money now, while the buyers are okay with waiting.
Get a lemmy app and put it there :P
You’re basically assuming that the company can’t be made to turn a profit, in which case, yes, it would be a scam.
But that’s not the case. The company could potentially be made to make a profit, and you’re basically selling that potential. It often works out, like in the case of Amazon. Sometimes it doesn’t, like Yahoo buying Tumblr.
As long as what the prospective buyer is actually getting is clear and up-front, it can hardly be a scam. With your “You sell something you know to be worthless to someone too ignorant to understand that.”, you’re essentially assuming the company can’t be made profitable, and that the seller knows that, but doesn’t disclose it to the buyer, and that the buyer is somehow naive enough to not be able to tell.
It’s generally unlikely that a company can’t be made profitable, it would be unlikely for the seller to know that, and it would be unlikely for the buyer to be unable to find out before buying it, which altogether, makes it unlikely this would happen. Which is why it’s big news when it does happen, like with Theranos (Which was eventually found out)
Dolphin runs pretty badly on low-end hardware in general. That being anything worse than mid-grade desktop hardware.
Depending on the specific game, it may be playable, but I wouldn’t bet on it.
As a specific example, I have a laptop with an i5-1335u, and it can’t run Twilight Princess playably at all, and Metroid Prime 2 doesn’t work great either.
But my previous 10600k desktop had no issues.
And as a general rule, phones are less powerful than even low-end desktop hardware.
