I'm finishing the reddit>resetERA>Kiwi Farms>rDrama pipeline
The OP
Starts with the Monster Sipping
Quotes a reddit post that he found relatable- the heart of the complaint was it being annoying having to go through so many log-ins and child account bullshit which sometimes also randomly threw off errors just so his kid could get a Lego game installed
His original commentary- perhaps it should be less annoying to buy a game for your kid
Seems reasonable right?

The enlightened replies
Of course we got some great contributions from the epic game players.
this is true
NOOO JUST DON'T HAVE AN ICKY CHILD. This isn't a problem for me, specifically
But it still is if you have a child
Ummm akshually why aren't you buying this Soyney game for your PS5???? Sony probably gets less money when you buy it for PC, so you should have no reason to buy it there
Why don't you remember all your passwords for shit like Sony accounts that you literally type in once and never again??? Are you stupid? (I guarantee you this guy uses the same password for literally everything)
User is confused as OP is just griping and reminiscing about the good old days instead of trying to stir up hate
Adding unnecessary bullshit steps to everything is a good thing actually! It's you who are impatient for wanting to simply install a program and be done with it! And yes it can be annoying, but why would you want it to be less so?
Remember, you're not a true epic g*mer if you don't spend all your time simping for large companies

One of the theories why younger generations are shifting right is that the only people actually having kids are chuds. Anyway, I hope transeterera chases away all the parents who then go on to instill strong anti everything era stands for into their kids.

Does anyone know if any economists are arguing that the kafkaesque EULA meta we have right now is actually good for the economy? Are there any positives to it?
I.e. will companies have to hire much more compliance staff if we don't sign away our rights?

The EU is based about it actually. If your Eula contains non standard shit in the EU it's just straight up invalid, the EU doesn't actually expect people to read Eulas.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Iirc it's because you have already purchased it before they spring it on you. It's changing the contract after it is signed. They would have to make you read the eula before you buy the game if they want to include non-standard conditions.
Imagine buying groceries, and when you get home and open them they tell you that you're only allowed to use these ingredients for vegan dishes.

I agree with the boomer.
I wanted to gift @Awoo a steam game because I'm a nice person.
You can't gift games to strangers anymore, probably because of scammers.
Like you can't even wrap up a copy of RDR2 for PC. You have to print your own shitty mimicry of a dvd case.

I actually bought it. I got about two hours in and then when I realized how r-slurredly inefficient my shape assembly lines were, I got dejected knowing I'd have to delete the whole thing. I'm bout to hop on again.

When i got to trains, i completely forgot space belts and tunnels existed. Got stuck in a conundrum of "how do I unload a train of shapes but also have these paints come in to the same platform?"
Duh. Alternate between the two, have the paint come in on a space pipe tunneling under the train.
My go-to was to have a train 20 cars long, have the even-care unload first, then the odd-cars further ahead, so it was all alternating and leaving a gap for the pipe tunnels.
Deleting everything to improve is normal and encouraged. Unlocking a third floor really helps

Imagine buying a fridge that only works online because reasons, and it has a TOS saying if you swear on twitch it will ban your account and your fridge will become bricked, also you can't use or sell it.
That's about the state of some video game platforms today. Online only DRM connected to required account logins from companies that ban for even off game behavior

And after bugging the fridge, which was advertised as a fridge freezer, you'll discover that the freezer doesn't work yet but they'll turn it on within the next 6-18 months but they won't charge you extra for it (they will)

I got a GameCube one year as a kid and it came with Mario Kart Double Dash and the Legend of Zelda Collector's Edition. It had the first 2 NES games + Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask in one; it was probably the coolest gift I ever received as a kid.
