Physical media has been dying for years. If you look at the sales statistics between physical and digital, it makes for grim reading if you care about physical media.

75% of game sales in Europe in 2024 were digital. In 2022, 90% of game sales in the UK were digital. It’s a similar story pretty much everywhere. And whilst there’s a lot of noise on the internet about how bad a digital-only future would be, the average consumer doesn’t care.

I really want this, but £55 for a 3.5 year-old game is a bit steep.

Also, a premium edition that gives you four days early access for a port of an old game is laughable.

Exactly.

Also, I might read a message quickly while I’m at work for example, but not have the chance to reply because of that, so I don’t want people to think I’m ignoring them when I just don’t have the time to reply at that moment.

If signing petitions led to anything, they wouldn’t let you sign them.

He’s literally just a cringe edgelord desperate for attention. And people keep giving him exactly what he wants.

Yeah, this guy hasn’t heard of line spacing.

0. The scaremongering about this is hysterical.

You’ve got four more years of the orange clown and then he’ll finally fuck off.

Or it’s a very delayed meme about Hitler.

Just tell her that if she’s ever struggling and needs a person to talk to, that she can rely on you.

That demonstrates that you’re a caring person who will be there for her if she needs it.

The Liberal Democrats in the UK are infamous for their dodgy bar charts in election leaflets, where the percentages don’t match up with the bars at all.

Similar to this:

It’s a running joke in the UK.

Did the UK Lib Dems make this bar chart?

Still waiting for you to make any kind of counterpoint…

Great argument, that.

Lol.

Before capitalism and free trade, 90% of the global population was in extreme poverty. It’s now down to 10%.

Since China and other countries ended communism, poverty has declined faster than at any other point in human history.

Don’t tell the people of Lemmy that capitalism and global trade are a large reason for the decline in overall poverty though.

…eh? Who mentioned trans?

It’s a fact that white, working class boys are being left behind by the system: https://committees.parliament.uk/committee/203/education-committee/news/156024/forgotten-white-workingclass-pupils-let-down-by-decades-of-neglect-mps-say/
