For smart people, piracy is a financial problem.
Why pay more for things you can get for free? It’s not like the businesses you’re supporting wouldn’t rob you blind if they thought they could get away with it.
Even the ‘creators’ don’t get the vast majority of the money you spend; their landlords do. When they make more money, rent goes up.
I wish this generation wasn’t full of useful idiots with more money than sense.
I’ve always thought looter shooters were shit and revolving a game around loot was a shitty idea.
Eh, judging by the games we do read about “up and down the net”, I’m dubious of your claim…
I haven’t bought a game in years.
Am I the only one who doesn’t give a shit about private trackers?
Why are you trying to restrict the people you can share with, lol.
Seems like a good investment.
You’re not alone.
That’s fine.
Spend your money how you want.
Try psychedelics.
I was specifically thinking about products I got on Amazon.
Headphones, especially. It really cemented in my mind that most “audiophiles” are just idiots with more money than sense trying to fit in with the same.

In my experience, Chinese products are way better and more affordable than American ones.
Buying American is just a scam to fool people with more money than sense.
Mark Twain was right.
Focus on older stuff and recognize that most people are just trying to fit in with other losers.
Yay, corporate handouts!
No they didn’t.
Ahh, so things only get done when you can convince twitter idiots to get up in arms.
Nations are fiefdoms.
It’s not because she’s famous, it’s because she’s rich.
The fuck? Why is it a problem just because of taytay?
Apples view
So, these companies will throw whatever shit at a wall to see what sticks.
Their “view” is constantly probing how low people’s standards are so they can do the least while charging the most.
It’s called “maximizing profit.”
It’s abuse, plain and simple.
