    Especially when helping your parents living in the middle of nowhere.

  • Yes, Valve and Visa/MasterCard differ massively in their service. Valve operates a store within a specific industry, Visa/MasterCard process payments across our whole society.

    It should be clear to anyone that payment providers must be held to a much stricter standard and have certain requirements of neutrality imposed on them. If not then in the best case you risk destroying the “free market” part of free market capitalism, worst case you’re weakening democracy by letting unelected, unaccountable people decide what is and what isn’t legal.

    Why would it be terrible if noon is not when the sun is directly overhead? It’s not like there’s some natural law telling us that it must be 12 o’clock. So what convenience does it provide?
