The Dekoda costs $599 plus a mandatory subscription of at least $6.99 per month.

Who even buys this shit?

Again?

Anything’s possible but I wouldn’t assume it was planned unless something else came up. I think he’s just riding the accidental publicity, which I don’t really blame him for, though the dishonesty of his spin kinda pisses me off.

I’d like to hear epic’s explanation on why the clean version was still too much.

You have eyes in your void

It’s an internet connected appliance with a screen, made by samsung. If you follow the right kinds of news, that combination should send shivers down your spine.

Edit: l’ll just say I don’t think the question was so dumb it should downvoted to hell.

I imagine it also has conveniences like hdmi cec and turn on by pressing a button on controller. Not gonna get one, but I think there are valid reasons.

I can guess who you mean. A couple boomer facebook type of meme posters showed up about within the past 2 months.

Child Sexual Abuse Material. Legalese for child porn and adjacent things.

Some previous article which contained valve’s response, and a description of the scene. I didn’t find it immediately, but I’ll check again.

I guess you wouldn’t be wrong to say that sexual abuse of children is challenging and pushes boundaries.

E: see replies.

It was a child doing pony play, riding a naked adult man-horse. The dev claimed it was not sexual.

This was removed later but it’s the build you send for review that gets reviewed. Other stores got a later version, hence why it passed on those.

Dev was not given a chance to remove it as it turns out steam has a policy that anything that resembles CSAM gets denied permanently.

It very well could be true, but the dev also seemed full of shit in the first interview I saw, pretending that he had no clue why it was banned.

Never put anything private on your work devices

If someone targets the deck, then the machine is pretty much already covered.

You haven’t heard a song NOT using it since at least 1998.

You and I might be listening to very different kinds of music.

So, as far as I can tell, your arguments are that that a normal font is nothing more than the alphabet, therefore there’s no art in it, and therefore the creator shouldn’t have any claim to it.

My argument is that every detail is an artistic choice, and that simply making it look aesthetically pleasing or distinctive is art. If fonts weren’t art, why would people even bother with different looking fonts?

But regardless of the art question, if the creator can’t license their fonts, it would mean that they get no compensation for when some company uses their work.

I chose a very extreme example, but it’s still just a stylized E, used for text. My word processor also has lots of different E’s to choose from, all stylized differently.

nor does it represent the letter E. It IS the letter E.

I have E’s that have serifs. The concept of letter E doesn’t say anything about that, but some fonts have them and others don’t.

Where do you draw the line? Serifs? Embossing? Floral motifs?

I designed a stylized E. Which side of the line does it belong?
