I wonder if people realize that cyberpunk is meant to be a dystopian satire, and not just a cool aesthetic

No, they don’t… For years now most people have considered cyberpunk to be just “rainy cityscape with neons”.

But it’s not that surprising, since a lot of us already do live in a cyberpunk world, except for some of the advanced technologies usually appearing in the genre.

That’s not why. There’s a very high chance Valve is actively working on new standalone VR since some years, there are regular leaks confirming some progress.

They’re not hacktivists, they’re just assholes.

Sure you can. wink wink 🏴‍☠️

I got the disc version for used games too, but the sad truth is that where I live there isn’t really a market for used games.

Or, well, there is, but the prices on used discs are often barely below retail price, if you can even find a copy.

It’s not like physical media makes any difference anyway these days.

Actual disk often gets just a glorified installer, and even if it includes the entire game you’re likely to have to activate it online anyway.

The “own your games” ship has sailed long ago, unless you only buy no-DRM and your own backups.

One of the reasons being Nvidia forcing unethical vendor lock in through their licensing.

For anyone that, like me, was confused what the hell is this language: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_English

Seems to be proper name for the kind of language a stereotypical black character in a movie would use.
Can’t say about real world, since I don’t live in the USA.

But it’s not a Spotify client, is it?

IIRC it uses Spotify APIs to generate playlists, but that’s all.
Actual music gets streamed from YouTube.
