I have a strong suspicion that truly talented writers who are able to build memorable stories in great worlds are few and far between, and those that are willing to work in the games industry of today are as rare as hen’s teeth.

The truth is probably somewhere between this, and the ol’ “eh, good enough”.

“Pays the price”!? $101 million? In 2023 Meta made a bit over $107 million of pure profit every day.

…apps for connecting to various Meta-owned social networks had logged user passwords in plaintext and stored them in a database that had been searched by roughly 2,000 company engineers, who collectively queried the stash more than 9 million times.

Ah yes, the “benefits” of an authoritarian state: they can redirect public funds to undercut any competition?

So what the EU is doing is, it won’t allow the Chinese manufacturer to pass these cost reductions down to me as a consumer and force it to charge a “minimum price” instead, am I reading this right?
