I think that's how a large part of European languages still work.

I don't think it's Steam setting the prices.

Not neccessarily. A spun off YouTube would still have YouTube premium and ad revenue. They could also sell user data to 3rd parties (I doubt Google currently does it on a large since it's in their interest to have a better ad network than its competitiors). A move similar to Reddit's with their API and exclusive search agreement or agreements to feed certain videos to AI would both fetch a higher price and upset the quality less since the vast majorty of videos watched are found through YouTube itself.

He belongs in a home.

He would if he wasn't a felon. He belongs in jail.

Wouldn't want to be mean to Facebook users, but the vast majority of them probably has micophone access enabled for Messenger at least, if not Facebook.

Wanting someone who killed in desparation in well-known and very extenuous circumstances a lighter punishment in no way condones the crime.

Many think the justice system should prioritize rehabilitation, not retribution.

Instead of fixing people, retribution just breaks them even further, making it more likely they'll commit a crime in the future, oftentimes because they're forced to by circumstances they find themselves in when (if) they're finally set free.

Lemmy isn't a single website like reddit.com is. It's rather a collection of decentralised servers ("instances") offering the same service (one very similar to reddit). It's often compared to e-mail - just as Gmail users can talk to Outlook users, lemmy.world users can post and comment on lemmy.ml from their home instance.

What this does is it removes the centralised aspects of Reddit - if a community has powertripping mods one can make an alternate community (like on Reddit). But this goes a step above - powertripping server admins can be reigned in by simply switching instances.

Honestly, isn't them invoking the arbitration clause a direct admission of guilt? Had they just came to court and said "we have nothing to do with it" they might've just gotten away with it. Like this, they literally drag themselves into the suit and say you can't sue me. Not a good look.

I wonder how credible Media bias factcheck itself is if they claim the NY Times is left-wing biased and more credible than the Guardian

It's history they want to repeat, not the present they want to accept

Agreed. Amnesia mode would be a much better name, but I feel if Firefox changed to it some uninformed users might thing Chrome's Incognito mode was somehow safer.
