I feel you on this, but at least as of last week if you have the correct settings in bios and windows, vanguard can be setup to only run while you’re playing a game and not run 24/7. I still don’t fully trust Vanguard though, but at least it’s some progress in the right direction.

You could maybe make a trademark complaint against them if you have been using the name of your game publically before they have, which from your steam page already existing I would assume you’ve been using it publicly for at least a little while now. As to how you would go about making such a complaint, I don’t know what to do other than talking with a lawyer if Steam doesn’t have any sort of option. This all assumes you live in the USA, if you’re in another country different options may or may not exist.

Probably because people that still think like Nazis continue to use these symbols for sending messages of hate.

No, that had nothing to do with fusion or fission. The Resonance Cascade was a quantum event created when Gordon inserted a Xen crystal sample into a Anti-Mass Spectrometer.

Just watched a really good and incredibly informative video on this, https://youtube.com/watch?v=nt4rZgndOoE. From what is explained in the video is that this is mostly filing paperwork, they haven’t verified their reactor works or that it’s able to output power, let alone output more power than what is required to start and maintain a fusion reaction. So over all, a little exciting, but really nothing to get too excited about yet.

Edit: grammar fixes

You are correct and I’m a little upset at myself that I left out the fact that educating parents should be something we put money and effort into as well.

Pretty easy solution to that, don’t let your kid have access to youtube without observing what they are watching. If a parent isn’t willing to learn how to setup parental controls and/or web filtering and take the time to observe what their child is consuming then it shouldn’t be shoved onto the government and made a problem for everyone else.

We already have multiple solutions for blocking children from websites that parents don’t want them to access and the companies providing those situations maintain their own databases of different types of content tagged so that parents can have some control over what is blocked and what is not. This stuff has existed since the 90s it’s nothing new. It requires parents taking the initiative though and really when we get down to it this is another, "but think of the children, " sort of situation where they are using child safety as cover for making it easier to collect biometric data of people online.

Or, ya know, make parents take responsibility for their own children and monitor what they are doing online. If you don’t want your kids seeing or participating in things online then don’t give them unfettered access to smart phones and computers!

You very well may already know this, but in case you don’t, us humans aren’t generally good at picturing true random. We tend to assume an even distribution is random where with true random, finding long strings of repeating numbers is expected to happen.

I’m not entirely sure, but it does seem that steam gives exceptions for limited time sales off steam. From a quick search it also seems like humble bundle is an authorized seller of steam keys so they likely have some sort of agreement.

You can sell your game for lower prices at other stores, but you can’t sell steam keys of your game on other stores for a lower price.

I’ve often had a lot of luck with finding things like this on archive.org

I’ve had the same experience, except I wrote it as “ove” and it took me far longer than I’d like to admit to realize what I had done. There are a couple other words that I’ve typed a phonetic spelling without realizing it, but I can’t seem to remember the specific words at the moment.

It was definitely the path that required the least amount of effort from them and they happily pocketed near 50% of the settlement.

As far as I’m aware the lawyers didn’t consult with the class-action members, or at the very least I was never asked if we should accept the settlement or not, the lawyers just accepted. Alternatively you could opt out of the settlement if you wanted, which is what I chose to do, mostly because the settlement amount was far too low, in my opinion, and they required signing and accepting an NDA which I was not willing to do.

I was originally part of this class-action. When the lawyers decided to settle I refused to accept the settlement, purely because Google admitted no fault and also required us to agree that we couldn’t ever sue over the issue again in the future even if new evidence came to light. The dollar amount they offered wasn’t tiny (it wasn’t large by any means either), but I felt it was in no way a valid amount for what was being claimed. Not to mention the lawyers were taking close to or maybe more than half of the settlement money, which I find offensive considering they decided to settle the case and allow Google to wash their hands of the matter. Luckily I reserved my right to sue again in the future, but I’d either have to go at it alone or try to form a new class-action suite. I’m still incredibly disappointed that the lawyers handling the case backed down and took the settlement, I would have rather lost the case and discovered the truth than take a pittance and let Google off.

Well, I guess I know what I’m getting her for christmas this year.

Now you got me thinking you’re mistaking me for some other stoat, as far as I’m aware my grandma isn’t at the wearing diapers stage yet.

Actually, she has a no politics rule… Unless that’s only for me.
