Apparently typing or saying the word is offensive? Lol

Google is ‘crooked’ and a bully, CEO of Fortnite-maker Epic Games testifies in Play Store trial (fortune.com)

Google is ‘crooked’ and a bully, CEO of Fortnite-maker Epic Games testifies in Play Store trial::Epic alleges that Google has been engaged in illegal price-gouging by collecting commissions ranging from 15% to 30% on in-app digital transactions.

Yeah, I’m confused about the price gouging too. Not sure what they did exactly. I remember fondly that Apple had an issue with then and how they advertised app purchases, but not with Google Play Store.

Oh there’s plenty of propaganda here, pretty extreme as well…

This isn’t a meme.

How about 1 and 2, and get rid of this one? It’ll force all to move and hopefully provide more interaction to their respective preference.

Chaotic, I know, but I for one try my best to avoid political arguments and topics. I bet some of you now enjoy how much it bothers me, an internet stranger not wanting a reminder of how much governments suck everywhere, but still wants to view memes here.

I downvote whenever I see them, but it seems like there are more, or a loud few (maybe both), for every one of my downvotes. It’s not just here, it seems like this on /all too. To be more specific, it seems there are more trolls constantly watching and quicker on the keyboard for anything remotely political. It sucks that we need moderation in any capacity to enforce no politics on ‘no politics’ spaces…

I’m sure a $1k+ PC can run pretty much any game, but not at the same graphics quality as a $4k HPC that helped create it.

NinjaJoey209 ,

Yeah, I’m so fucking sick of the ‘oH bUt YoU bAsIcAlLy DiD iT tOo!’. Get off your fucking high horse, you’re more part of the problem than the meme itself.

Cuz text can express your sarcasm, fuck me right?

How do primarily overnight package focused carriers make any money on 2-day services?

So this is a rather niche question so I hope it is still relevant to this group, but I was thinking. The big package transport companies(in the US this is UPS and FedEx) make most of their air cargo money on overnight packages, where the business model is pretty straightforward. Have packages fly between a small number of hubs...

Not an expert as well, but I’ll share my experience. Used to work for a company that contracted with multiple shipping companies mainly for large palletized freight shipments (FedEx, R&L), but not all of them (UPS, other local freight). We had a business contract with FedEx so our shipping rate for both parcel and freight was ~50-60% cheaper than their standard rate if you were to try to schedule/ship something yourself as an individual, but we still used UPS time to time if a client needed it overnight and the FedEx truck already made it’s stop for the day. For example, FedEx website would quote ~$1400 to pickup and ship a pallet shipment standard from your residential address (this would include lift-gate truck service), whereas it would cost our company $450 because they have a regular freight truck that stops by our company twice a day. Of course we ship out much higher volume, so that’s where FedEx would set their discount pricing to ensure they profit in the end over a long duration.

If a pallet needed to go somewhere overnight, that price can easily double or quadruple depending if it was domestic or overseas, but nothing much changes from my end other than changing the shipping label type.

With our FedEx contract, we also had a regional manager contact for support if issues occurred with the shipment that had much quicker response time than going through their standard support routes.

I saw a Lemmy user give ‘benefit of the doubt’ responses for seemingly curt comments, and then original commenter thanks them instead of feeling attacked. Bizarre to me. I feel like that happened on Reddit more often at some point, even for most non-specific communities, but I haven’t seen it since.

Game devs do try, but it’s hard when the problem are the losers with superiority complexes who lack control over their own lives.
