Mereo@lemmy.cato Games@sh.itjust.works•FTC Complains That Microsoft's 1,900 Gaming Layoffs 'Contradict' What Was Said in Antitrust TrialEnglish22·2 years agoI don’t know why people are down voting you just because they don’t like the government. The FTC legally fought this every step of the way: https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/cases-proceedings/2210077-microsoftactivision-blizzard-matter
Unfortunately, unlike Australia, Canada is not an Island. The USA influences us easily.
It’s looks nice. I think you will enjoy KDE, we don’t have to worry about extensions compatibility when upgrading to a new version of Gnome.

Mereo@lemmy.cato Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Ubisoft requires you to sign in just to play a demo...English81·2 years agoIt is not. It is a demo. The company demonstrates the game to you. You’re free to play it as long as you want so that you can make an informed decision afterwards.

Mereo@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Over 7,000 students see their lunch debts wiped after $1 million donation101·2 years agoIt’s a clash of two worldviews. The purest form of capitalism believes that the individual is selfish and thinks only of himself. Therefore, it’s up to the individual to succeed no matter what, relying only on himself.

Keep up the good work!
It’s good to be a Canadian :)
