Noticed a couple of years ago that every single graphical asset for Half-Life 2 Deathmatch (and Half-Life Deathmatch Source) on Steam uses a different typeface for the subtitle and none of those match the one that's actually used in the game

"Piracy is almost always a service problem."
Take it from Gabe Newell. The one that solved the problem by setting up a service that gave us people fanboying for DRM in 2025.
The same way that back in the day CD Projekt fought piracy not by DRM, but by offering a box worth its price.

the exception to these rules tends to be countries with big cost diffs, for example the classic "it's like months worth of salary for one game" or alternatively "there is literally no legal way to procure the game in that territory" and, well
if you want to fix those, it's not with DRM or moralizing

As someone who experienced both burglary and home invasion (two separate cases)...
I'm still waiting for Nintendo and EA to go bankrupt because of all the piracy. Come on, the door is open. When will The Sims go bust?
Should i go pirate some more to make it happen faster? ._.

piracy feels a lot like the fear of suburban break & enter in that it's a spooky thing that gets talked up in media and news a lot but then you accidentally leave your door unlocked for a week and discover that actually no one really cares to break in to begin with

First snow of last winter caught me in the middle of trying to rescue my Eggbug merch from ghouls at DPD.
This year, today, i was considering a visit to John UPS to kick his ass on a parking lot behind a discount store.
And there it is. First snow of the winter. Right on time.
