RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•Amazon [US] Lost Right to Sell Nintendo Switch 2 Amid Sales DisputeEnglish3·17 days agoNintendo is selling them for cheaper in Southeast Asia because people there have less money. They could sell them for less in the US as well, but people are able to afford the prices there so capitalism dictates that the price is higher. What Amazon and the retailers are doing undercuts this strategy, which in theory means that Nintendo should raise their prices in Southeast Asia to make their business model work, making the games inaccessible to consumers living there. In classic liberalism this is the logical way things should be, in neoliberalism the state should intervene.
The problem with capitalism in a representative democracy is that is almost impossible to maintain a perfectly sized government. If the government asks for too many taxes (on an extreme level) etc the market doesn’t function anymore. The “free market” needs some level of class difference to make profit attractive and keep people committed to their jobs. Because of these differences class conflict is created and through privately owned newspapers, corruption and short term economic gains regulation’s get liberalized. This results in wealth accumulation, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. This then leads to the social and economic conditions that allow for the rise of the populist right.
As a European I can currently see this happening in all countries to which I pay attention (namely Germany, Netherlands and Britain).

Mit der SPD koaliert niemand, da sie ein rechtsextremer Verdachtsfall ist. Die MSP ist relativ nahe bei PKA/CSU, kann aber die Grünen nicht ausstehen

Muss man ja nicht wählen.

Ist auch weniger eine Partei im klassischen Sinne als das über sie gegenseitige Hilfe organisiert wird und sie Anarchismus in die Mitte der Gesellschaft bringt, da sie per dem GG ihre Ziele eh nicht über den parlamentarischen Weg erreichen kann. Also statt nicht zu wählen da man den Staat ablehnt wählt man PKA um im Parlament repräsentiert zu werden. Zum einen können so Parteien wie CMU oder LfD nicht der Öffentlichkeit vormachen Anarchismus=Chaos ohne das es wirkliche Gegenstimmen gibt. Die PKA versucht zudem die Wirtschaft zunehmend dezentral zu organisieren damit der Übergang zu einem Anarchismus nach ihren Vorstellungen vereinfacht wird (wie auch immer das erreicht wird)

RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.worksMto ROM Hacking@sh.itjust.works•Pokémon Revolution vs Emerald CrossEnglish2·1 month agoI have only played Emerald Cross before and can highly recommend it. However as I understand it Revelation adds new content (like Polished Crystal) while Emerald Cross just makes some Qol changes, so Revelation might be more what you want

According to Steam Hardware Survey Linux is over 2% of Steam Users. This puts Linux way ahead of Mac which supported by Epic
RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.worksOPto Games@sh.itjust.works•Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games StoreEnglish33·3 months agoSteam is, in my opinion, way better for the user (even if it may be worse for the developer).
Epic lacks features that are important to me like reviews, the ability to view your library in a browser, warnings about DRM, Linux support, a hole bunch of features to discover games, a workshop, big picture mode.
Additionally, in my experience at least, their official launcher under Windows is a buggy mess compared to steam.

The thing with products like games, textbooks, movies etc is that a large part of the cost is the design. This means that while you can make the products cheap and still cover the cost of manufacturing, you won’t make back the money from the design if your margin is very low. This gives manufacturers the ability to sell the same product in differently wealthy markets while still making a profit.
If you now take the product from a cheaper market and sell it to more wealthy consumers at lower price than they usually pay, you aren’t actually selling at a better price because you are providing a better service. You are selling at a better price because you’re breaking the manufacturer’s business model.
This isn’t something that can permanently work because either A: the manufacturer doesn’t get enough money to cover the design, can lead to bankruptcy or change of business model ©, B: through regulations this is prohibited or C: The manufacturer raises the price in the regions your buying from, breaking your business model and screwing over the people who can no longer afford it there.
Of course this depends on the scale you’re acting in, but in theory preventing you from doing so would bring more equality between richer and poorer nations
