Seriously what is this? Nintendo argues that by instructing users how to extract the prod.keys from their own switch the yuzu developers are essencially infringing on the DMCA.

So what? Now you can't even freely use your own property anymore because it goes against the design intentions of some big company that just want's to milk their users?

Nintendo goes directly after this argument in its lawsuit, arguing that buying a Switch game only means you "have Nintendo's authorization to play that single copy on an unmodified Nintendo Switch console."

Yes indeed. All true statements imo. My mother also has this in her personality, growing up in the US. Dont look, dont care. Cruel if you see other families (especially southern european) treat their family and friends like the best thing in the world.

The issue I see is that being comfortable today doenst mean you‘re safe. If you make 100+k a year and get fired to bolster the stock price is not comfortable. You can have the same standard of living with 80k in germany and have social security and workers rights on top. The language is also becoming a lot less of a barrier for IT folks.
