Hmm... I'm not sure if I love this one. Not bad, but not my favorite thing that I've heard out of them.

I just recently came around on Act V and declared Act IV the best TDH, so maybe by 2030 I'll think Antimai is the best TDH record and give this one a shot.

Valve posted a statement on the New York lootbox lawsuit gamingonlinux.com/2026/03/valvโ€ฆ

#Steam #Valve #Gaming #PCGaming #Lootboxes

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

Valve's right & the card comparison is apt & relatable.
NY's suit looks like a shakedown. At the same time any sports viewing gives you an eyefull of gambling stats/sites, polymarket is somehow legal, the NYSE itself will allow an algorithm to trade a bundled derivative with nominal human involvement but sure put a tamp on people spending a couple bucks to get a game skin.
Pay the right lobbyist & all of a sudden anything looks legitimate, maybe valve is playing that game wrong.

TIL. In April 1974, in the middle of the night, a small group of conspirators secretly installed a large tensegrity icosahedron made from discarded telephone poles on the campus of Twente University in the Netherlands.

Itโ€™s still there. People call it Het Ding (โ€œthe thingโ€).

It's not that we don't know a better world is possible.

It's that so many are trapped in the flypaper of despair manufactured by the oligarchs and the fearful.

First, free your mind.
Next, join hands.
Then, work for change.
Every one of us who does this builds that better world.

One reason these laws won't work: since Linux is open source, you can download the source code and compile everything yourself. The source code should be protected by the 1st Amendment, so states can't reasonably restrict it, and if you compile everything yourself, there is no "vendor" who has to do anything.
