I’ve used it before for a job application! I needed to send them sensitive data. Tysm!

Great intuitive UI, does what it says, and it’s fast. 5/5

Epic also has a shitty UI. Steam’s isn’t great, but at least it’s mostly intuitive.

try to export their strict laws

No, not laws, but religious views and values. That’s what their laws reflect. Religious people are famous for trying to proselytize, convert, and meddle because they have a very fundamental belief that they’re dealing with larger forces of good and evil.

gives them so much personal joy at taking away our gay kissing

Again, please don’t reduce my argument to absurdity. That is not a productive or respectful way of making your point.

Yeah, I have those games, but I want to know what direction they’ll take. I want to know how bold they would be if they wanted to.

Saudi Arabia is a country with one of the strictest laws in the world. Why shouldn’t anyone be suspicious of what they say or do? Why can’t people have a healthy amount of distrust and skepticism of their actions if, as you said, they’re trying to portray a different image of themselves to the world? Who says the mask can’t come off under the right circumstances, like the shameless right-wing downturn of the US?

The Sims IP has always been one of the most welcoming and famous platforms for non-traditional values that directly contradict their country’s principles. Because I don’t know if you know, but homosexuality in Saudi Arabia is currently punishable by death. It’s fair to imagine that some company-wide policy changes would take place when it’s acquired to align with its own views, which also align with the Trump administration’s crusade to eliminate liberal ideas. I mean, didn’t they recently bribe him with a luxury jet? Don’t you think they could have a broader joint interest at heart?

If franchises like Call of Duty have been targets of military marketing, it doesn’t take much to imagine how a corporation from an authoritarian country like SA would at least attempt to rein in social values in The Sims if given the chance.

I’d rather have that than the IPs being used to promote and indoctrinate some religious bullshit.

I wonder what they’ll do with IPs like The Sims. I can’t imagine they’ll allow same-sex relationships, naturally, but I don’t think they’ll allow divorce, either. :S

Inb4 the ackshually, homosexuality is a modern concept that’s been around for less than 100 years ☝🤓

It gets quite silly when you blame the entire dev community for supposedly downvoting you over ideals rather than being overly strict about them. I also prefer HTML-first and think it should be the norm, but I draw the line somewhere reasonable.

I can’t get to that page, so I asked a question

Yeah, and you can run the innocuous JS or figure out what it is from the URL. You’re tying your own hands while dishing it out to everyone else.

Not idol worship, rather, it’s silly to complain about JS when tools like NoScript allow you to selectively choose what runs instead of guessing what it is. It’s simply a documentation page like it says on the URL. I mean, they’re incredibly tame on the danger scale to leave your guard all the way up and instead take a jab at the entire community that had nothing to do with your personal choices.

I mean, Steam has no issue with Weed Shop 3 😅

Yaaarggh! Fuck you auto mod, I’m trying to be helpful. >:(

Same here. The problem was that I needed more RAM. 🙃

I will never not grin slightly at the name XMPP.

Yup! But I think men had to be abducted by aliens and he’d show up preggo with an alien baby some days later.

I don’t think it was possible to impregnate women sims this way, but I may be misremembering.

We did it! *high fives self on the other side of the world*

I mean, where is the lie? Gimme cheap games, I’ll “buy” all of them!
