I see.

I was just confused because AI is a fuzzy umbrella term.

I hate chatbot LLMs, but I don’t mind stuff like chess bots and videogame NPCs.

Are you ok with a chess bot cuz that’s technically AI?

I’m not German and I didn’t get the twisted cross email.

They no longer use it.

I open it right now and all I see is flashy text with game cover art in the offers/deals pages.

DRM-free is a big plus.

Didn’t get one.

Talking about GOG the DRM-free digital PC game store.

GOG is a good company we all pay for.

It’s the other way around with my Mum.

I think they mean modern console emu.

That’s why they ignored Dolphin emu but took down Yuzu, for example.

In a nutshell: the word stealing is a vague umbrella term.

Would you classify making clones/copies out of a thing and sharing them stealing?

Thank God that GOG exists

Steal is like taking away a cupcake from your bakery.

Piracy is like analyzing the cupcake and thus revealing its recipe and I share it to everyone. (You wouldn’t lose your baked cupcakes but everyone makes clones out of them from the recipe.)

Especially Indie games, DRM-free games (GOG) and physical books.

Those are the people who deserve support

I never bought and never will eBooks

Only physical copies and piracy (so I can actually own my stuff)

Steam has DRM. I wonder why pirates like it instead of something GOG and itch.io
