It needs a definition because it is a thing that happens though.
You need to differentiate between installing from the app store and installing from other sources, you might not like the choice of word, but we need a word to define it.

People generally don’t want to make games free because often 99% of what makes a game good is not the software aspect. People like games for interesting mechanics, story, art, and music. Those aren’t things that generally haven’t worked well being free and open
FOSS generally works because people use foss to create end products, and have an incentive to contribute because it benefits them financially (and the side effects is that it benefits others too).
Making a game FOSS rarely benefits the creators since it is the end product, even if it benefits the game or community.
There are cases where it works though, such as rhythm games, where the end product requires immense collaboration, but those often exist on the borderline of acceptability (due to copyrighted music use) and they end up with a need to be foss since licensing 10,000 songs is basically impossible.

I’m not gonna downvote because I think your experience is valid. That being said, I think it is a little dismissive. Many people in this thread likely have direct issues with specific addictions, and many people likely have been around death or serious harm because of it.
Chemicals like nicotine have a direct addictive effect on your brain, whether or not you personally can overcome that or not doesn’t make much of a difference over that fact that it isn’t even about personalities or willpower in every case. Nicotine in particular digs very deep, altering brain development, changing the perception of pain, and controlling dopamine levels. Nicotine also has direct effects on the limbic system, and overall effects of the entire nervous system.
This isn’t some issue of people being stupid or weak, nicotine is one of the most addictive (chemically) substances known to man, and a common delivery method is to freebase and concentrate it. It is constantly being developed in laboratories to be as addictive as possible, and there is a 1 trillion (and growing) dollar industry that is financially incentivised to get it into your hands.
1 in 8 people in the world smoke or otherwise consume tobacco products, that’s almost the same amount of people that drive cars.
1 year with nothing, after years of vape only and a long time with smokes.
I still get cravings every once in a while, especially with certain actions. Recently It was playing a record, I used to sit and listen to music and chug on my vape and now I sit and do nothing, so the craving comes back.
This reduction of addiction is surprising to see here. You can literally replace your scenario with anything, booze, heroin, junk food, whatever and it may be easier to understand. You have already crossed the barrier on enjoyment, so why is it a stretch for you that people might overindulge. I’m sure there are things in your life that you overindulge in.
Our brains and bodies are vastly complex and all of these things have chemicals that alter your brain chemistry, everyone’s brain is different and these chemicals affect people differently.
It’s a combination.
Most captchas goals generally aren’t 100% prevention, it’s to put a workload in front, this makes spamming the site cost money, a bankrolled attempt could just as easily outsource the captchas to real humans.
DNS sinks can often cause elevated traffic numbers because the client is constantly failing and retrying.
I bet if you enabled it to test the numbers would drop dramatically.
So an HDMI connected device that is streaming Netflix is getting screenshot?
I mean, even if it wasn’t a streaming service, but let’s say, video game content, or a blu ray, that is still a violation, and of course, if I’m playing content I made, then it’s violating my copyright.
If your video can be replaced by a title, it probably wasn’t with watching
Tbh I wrote that comment moments after waking up with my eyes barely open.
No I don’t, care to share?
Facebook’s Shadow profile on you doesn’t care whether you have an account or visited their site.
Zeitgeist could refer to the past though.
Nirvana was part of the zeitgeist of the 90s.
PGP can also do that, properly implemented, a PGP key with a large web of trust, can be just as effective at making immutable certified statements without having this weird cash based speech thing that crypto has going for it.
The fact that every single action you do with crypto involves spending money is ridiculous. I don’t mean the scams and stuff, I mean, every single thing, every transaction, every smart contract, every interaction, who wants to play around with a system that just pilfers your cash from you just for the privilege of exploring it.
At least with aws I can run code locally before they rob me.
Good news is, you will never be able to stop hobbyist 3d printing.
Sorry patent trolls, you can’t make aluminum extrusion, stepper motors, an extruder, and a short circuit illegal.
Immigrants bring their culture (and thus, cuisine)
I don’t remember why, but I have you tagged as:
