@atomicpoet I remember something clicked for me when I read that the performance of shares in foreign companies listed on the FTSE 100 inversely tracked the strength of the pound.
Because of course, if a pound is worth less, a company actually making things is worth more of them.
It's easy to make stock market numbers go up by allowing inflation to erode the value of the currency.
@atomicpoet quite.
I fundamentally don't trust Facebook to treat me like a customer, because in every interaction I have with them they treat me like livestock on their attention farm. I would never buy anything from Facebook, let alone something I put on my head and cover my actual eyeballs with.
I'm not an enthusiast for Valve, but I trust them to sell a device they think I want to buy, not the device they want me to be locked into so they can fill it with fucking adverts.
@atomicpoet if you don't think that people should pay any attention to things other people have to say about games, why do you bother to write and post about the games you play?
