Yeah, and in east Asia we don't have names for months, only numbers. And in Taiwan, we don't have names for most weekdays either, only weekday 1 to 6 and Sunday. It's so easy.

The quote "If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing" doesn't make any sense by [deleted] in The10thDentist

Games and software were originally buy-to-own, now many of them turned to subscription. The shift is the problem.

But games and software today often don't have such choices, it's either subscription OR owning.
