Comment Re:What about old games? (Score 1) 107

It really wasn't, and they had an apparently-non-binding statement that developers would be able to use old versions of the engine with old versions of the license perpetually. The new management abolished that good-faith statement and decided that, from this point forward, all versions of the engine use only the new license.

Where this is really going to hurt is games that have been out for a long time and are in their long tail. Even if you're selling for twenty bucks, but 100x as many people are reinstalling an old classic as are actually buying it new, you're losing money by keeping it on the market.

If your online-only storefront sells a product, but blind people can't buy that product because your website isn't usable for them, that falls foul of some pretty sensible regulations.

If you're a physical retailer, and you have "online-only" special deals on your whiz-bang fancy website - meaning that blind people can't get the lower price that seeing people can get - that's pretty obscene.

I'm pretty sure that student loan forgiveness is part of a package that includes tuition reform. It doesn't make much sense without it.

If tuition reform knocks prices down to a tenth of what they are now (like they were a few decades ago), I'd be pretty damn okay if loans were forgiven down to a cap in line with that amount.
