Then why does US law explicitly allow slave labour? Do they blacklist themselves as well?

With something like the heroic launcher you don't even need to install the Epic games launcher. Just redeem the game through the website and play them through heroic.

For Linux you can use Heroic if you want a launcher. Otherwise you can just download the installers on their website.

Yes, but most aren't able to be used like a laptop/desktop PC. You can't install any software from outside the official repository on a Xbox or Playstation whereas the Steam Deck is just a handheld laptop with Linux as the OS.

I'm drunk right now and I didn't need to rotate my phone. Your logic checks out.

The steam deck is a portable pc that looks like a handheld console.

I wish! My life would be much simpler that way, but alas I myself am trans and I don't like to extend self-hate to whole demographics.

Isn't having gay sex still considered a sin in Catholicism? I thought those blessings didn't count as a marriage and having sex while not being married was a thing that constituted as a sin as well?

The whole gamergate thing lends some credence to the words of the author I would think. A lot of the big gaming influencers are toxic, racist and misogynistic. Remember when people freaked out about some unflattering screenshots of female characters in a lot of games? Like Aloy in Horizon: Forbidden West, MJ in the new Spiderman game or even Abby in The Last of Us 2. There are surprisingly many people that don't like any western games because they "push their woke agenda" or some such bullshit.

It is the same in many online games, although that has gotten a bit better over the years, where you get berated, insulted and catcalled if you dare to have a feminine voice.

Fuck Transdev! They turned the public transport around my city to shit. The last time I used their city train ~~is that the right word?~~ I was late almost half the time and three trains were cancelled over the two weeks of riding to the neighbouring city.

Then you are luckier than me.

You never met one of those capital G Gamers who have never seen a woman that's not their mom? The ones that get mad if there are black/gay/trans people in their videogames because of "muh escapism"?
