  • No disc on PC is totally different because the platform is more free. We have multiple store fronts, some are DRM free, some come with free compatability tools, we can install games free of a store, back data up to a hard drive and play that same game on a different PC all offline, we could burn our entire library to SD cards or CDs and produce our own physical media, we can use a million combinations of hardware and operating systems, etc.

    Locking out discs also hurts game stores and gives consumers worse value for money since they can’t trade in games. Super shitty when there is only one digital storefront


















  • Yea they COULD, but they won’t. All these big tech companies profit massively off destroying the environment. The same data centers that use huge amounts of water and electricity that would serve these climate videos are what made them rich.

    I’m not convinced just pushing a topic most people willfully ignore would work. People will just scroll past the boring climate change videos that make them feel bad about existening to click on meme compilations.

    Also, I hate that we still push the “individuals can fix the climate” narrative. Corporate pollution is the major issue, the 17 biggest ships in the world produce more pollution than the global car fleet. We need regulation not algo tweaks. Big tech isn’t going to push videos that might educate people to that fact, so even the videos we would get in a project like this would contain misinformation.
