Thanks pal. That’s the word.
moosetwin in another comment said the word, generacization.
But ubiquitous is always right in this case, but not the word I was looking for.
I totally agree that cancer are rising, but as I said, some of that raise is explained by the fact that we are better at detecting cancers.
There is a term, that I am too lazy to search, that when a brand or technology is so widespread or used, that the name of the brand or technology becomes the word used to describe anything that ressemble that brand or technology.
Wi-Fi and iPads are definitely some of those.
For sure they saw dollar signs down to road for them when Meta decided to create threads.
I just want to point out that we are better at detecting cancers now and we have a lot more information than in the 70s. So the 500% is still true, but a non negligeable part of that is that we are better at detecting it early.
Funny that you must specify in the West. Gay people are dying in many places because of religion. But since it doesn’t happen here (and even then it happens really), it’s all dandy.
So many atrocities in the name of religion, but for whatever reason, we can’t scrutinize that?
Classy
How many more horror stories of people being killed or tortured in the name of a fiction book must we endure before enough is enough?
The only time there is real consequences
It is not a great trend, but you need a launcher anyway today be it Steam, Origin or any other launchers.
Only GOG offers DRM free games but it is not the norm.
Some games on steam are DRM free, meaning that you can run the game without opening Steam.
I’d rather have physical copies of my games, but it doesn’t exist anymore unless you pirate it.
With that said, Steam is the most convenient and feature complete and that is why it is so widespread. Epic games with their money printer Fortnite could not reproduce a fraction of Steam dev tools and functionality.
Because they still have to foot the bill for the infrastructure that you use your free keys on.
Except that Steam allow their keys to be sold on other platforms and don’t take a cut on those. So it is 30% on the key sold on steam, but 0% on the other storefront.
So there is no reason to not go on steam because it doesn’t restrict you to steam.
Because back then, it was different from everything else. The over the top movements, 5 little robot dinosaurs turning into a giant robot, the monsters being eclectic.
Always assume that corporate decisions benefits the corporation. If decisions somehow align with customers needs and wants, it’s a positive side effect.

You missed another point : companies shedding employees and replacing them by “AI” bots.
As always, the technology is a great start in what’s to come, but it has been appropriated by the worst actors to fuck us over.
How is bitcoin objectively better? That’s a pretty bold statement that needs some backing arguments.
They both have pros and cons, but until BTC have garanteed near instanteneous transaction confirmation, I don’t see how that would work at the grocery store for example.
Why not have fun a make a YouTube video of a Rube Goldberg machine that ends with a recreation of Itchy and Scratchy scene.
