You do not understand the point I am making. Dehumanization is never the answer.

I don't think you understand the point I'm making here.

Dehumanization is what Nazis do. Don't gaze into the abyss so long that you start thinking like them.

I think it is essential to remind ourselves that Nazis are people, that Naziism is an evil that mankind is capable of. In order to effectively fight Nazis, we must pay attention to how real people get suckered in by Nazi propaganda. The second you start othering them is the second you lose the fight because you willfully stopped paying attention.

It would not be onerous for them to continue supporting a couple of old versions of Windows, they would just have to hire a few more people to do it.

You literally did say support.

I am aware that some corporate infrastructure is hopelessly tangled up in legacy systems. But we are talking about consumer support here, which I know you know is very different.

Fighting games. There's a reason the FGC still puts so much emphasis on offline play. Go to your locals, go to majors, don't just sit there playing ranked at home!

Why would a smaller screen make framerate not matter? Textures and resolution, sure, but framerate always matters.

That's not what I asked. You said you wanted Valve to hire people to support Windows 98. What company still supports Windows 98 like that?

Can you name any other company that supports Windows 98 in 2025?

That is not a d-pad. That is a touchpad with a plus drawn on it.

Please explain to me how a lock-in model that forces you to keep paying forever in order to keep what you already paid for is better than just being able to buy something once and have it.
