The original pronounciation was French. "You be soft" is the furthest pronounciation from the original. It originated not in the company, but comes from people who pronounced it in a "wrong" way. Oo be soft is closer and the way how it was originally pronounced it Germany. But nowadays you can pronounce it however you want. No version is seen as "wrong".

Ronan low taxes results in more money for the state since hard working pays off. More motivation to work since you have more money in the wallet. As it is now with migrants as well high taxation kills the motivation and the amount of people living in welfare and not working puts more pressure on those who works. Leading to unbalance.

@@AndersLiljeblad Well why should I pay 60 euros for a game while I can also switch my steam account to Argentina and get it for 5 euro. Only takes 10 min to change my account region with the needed payment method for Argentina which everybody can get in under 10 mins. I'm just a lazy fuck who lets other people do it so they sell them to me for a cheaper price on g2a. Good luck paying 60 euros for each game while I pad 5/10 euro

I find it so weird how these sites get so much flack about source of goods while Kijiji and eBay skate free. The same concern about "source of goods" applies to anything you buy second-hand / aftermarket / grey market / etc. (i.e. whatever you buy off of Kijiji / eBay could have been stolen / bought through fraud / been a sample / giveaway / etc.). It's almost as if people don't want a free market where you can sell and buy things without having to check in with someone else (which is precisely how price fixing is enabled).

You can't really compare key resellers to ebay because ebay actually sells used goods while key resellers can only sell "new" keys. Of course there will be some stolen goods on reselling platforms like ebay as well but in far fewer quantities than on most key reselling platforms. The reason for this being that most key resellers can only achieve such low prices due to fraudulent behavior while platforms like ebay can achieve low prices by actually selling used stuff.

I bought from G2A before years ago. FFXIV + Heavensward (was much cheaper there than on Steam at the time, and I was quite short on cash working as a games journalist) and a handful of playtime cards (as my subs ran out). I didn't have a single problem buying there, but I would be lying if I said I did it without my heart giving out until I activated the codes and everything worked out fine. Square Enix never came after me either. All in all, I'd recommend waiting for sales on Steam. That's what I've been doing ever since I decided G2A was too risky and I have no regrets. I don't play FFXIV anymore cuz R$60 a month is too much, but I still buy games every now again, all through Steam itself.

I'm not sure about these subscription services though, I like the idea of owning games but at the same time I can see the value of playing the games and not cluttering the library afterwards. Really looking forward to being able to trade some Steam games in though that will good.

It is now widely-accepted as the strongest encryption there is - and used by governments, militaries, banks and other organizations across the world to protect sensitive data."
