    AFAIK, even if the developer removes a game from Steam, if you bought it (or rather, a license for it), it remains in your account. E.g. I have Lord of the Rings: War in the North …

    Non-Americans should not, and usually do not believe either. It's funny when Republicans/Democrats treat either as reputable. They're politicking 101 made into 24/7 news media pani…

    Thanks for that! Probably in a couple of years, as my laptop is still serving me well enough for now. It's also pretty light and still has good battery, so not a ton of benefit the…

    Based on my experience, I can tell you the grass is not greener on the other side. Forced to use Mac for work, the previous Macbook Pro would lose charge _while plugged in_! The ba…

    Both monopolies and duopolies are unhealthy, the only reason they're acting better in Europe because, as you said, they are being forced to.
