Like every civilized country does. Limit who can get lead dispensers (gun law knowledge test, practical exam, psych eval, etc.) and making owners responsible for securing them. Most shootings happen with stolen or otherwise illegal hole punchers (either child from parents or just stolen, e.g. from car). Where I live, you could get jail time for leaving a gun unsupervised in a car or not locked in your home. Or at least would never be allowed to own one again.

But the courts struck that down as well and there is basically no hope of fixing this shit, e.g. via constitutional amendment, cause too many people are busy pushing laws that only harass lawful owners like assault rifle bans (newsflash, a shotgun kills kids just as good as an AR) and many people on the 2A side are now in defense mode instinctively pushing back on any gun laws, even reasonable ones.

Understandable, though I don’t share your issue. Or rather, it has usually been a software problem (app wasting battery) rather than HW one.

Well yes. But gotta say, my last three phones lasted me 13 years and counting without requiring any repair. Unless you drop your phone regularly or sometging like that, I am not sure how important repairability really is.

1. What goat says. Still need steam to download and install on new/reinstalled PC.
2. I don’t know of any way to filter non DRM games on steam. If I have to research them one by one, that’s a big friction to buying the game.

Sure, but then why pay for them at all, unless you really want to support the devs?

It being legal and convenient is the improved service that can help reduce piracy.

I personally don’t get the fixation on physical media. Like sure, you may put it on the shelf, which can be nice. But realistically digital is the way to go for most people. I just want what GOG is doing, where you gat a real installer that just works without internet connection, without steam/gog installed, same today as in 20 years, even if GOG goes under.

Ah, that makes more sense. I was suspicious of a news site being so good. The search for good news source continues…

Wow, a news site that actually links primary sources like the SCOTUS decision. 10/10 Absolute amaze!

Cause that would require at least one side of the political divide to fight for something vaguely rational. And it is in the US.
