it's supposed to be a strikethrough but it doesn't quite render the same on every app (something people who use those funny symbol generator sites always fail to take into account) - this is how it looks in notepad, for example.

no, the person making that claim just doesn't understand how URL tracking works. it just means whoever copy and pasted their link wholesale from the address bar in their browser didn't remove all the extraneous referrer crap after the actual useful URL. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTM_par...
![Urchin Tracking Module (UTM) parameters are five variants of URL parameters used by marketers to track the effectiveness of online marketing campaigns across traffic sources and publishing media. They were introduced by Google Analytics' predecessor Urchin and, consequently, are supported out of the box by Google Analytics. The UTM parameters in a URL identify the campaign that refers traffic to a specific website,[1] and attribute the browser's website session and the sessions after that until the campaign attribution window expires to it. The parameters can be parsed by analytics tools and used to populate reports.[2]
This example URL has four of the five UTM parameters highlighted:

thank you for your valuable input, Satan Pridehome of one of the Scummiest "Professions" On Earth. may all tenants trash your homes, and your real estate properties lie barren until the banks foreclose on all your mortgages

sometimes quora still pops up in search results for questions. while I don't think there's ever anything of value to be found there, sometimes it's nice to get the perspective of some of the stupidest people online; especially when they have such perfect names for their background.

OH! okay sorry different wavelengths lmfao
I can't recall the last time steam forced a popup on me )except hardware survey or steam client patch notes). maybe this option under Notifications turns off what you're talking about? I know the little icons in the top right still highlight but that's it.

this isn't @ you and I'm not going to bat for Valve but just so people can know, in settings, you can literally change the default page that loads any time you launch steam (I don't know about big picture mode or steam deck fyi)

like, besides baiting someone the first time they see a link like this amidst normal videos, what does this accomplish? the normal descriptions already say if official uploads are "Free with Ads" or "Buy or Rent". AND those pages show trailers for the latter....

you know, youtube, having the various buy/rent movie options in the sidebar wasn't so bad, but now you're hiding trailers in there that look almost like real videos except there's no posted date/views on it?

I like how the steam trailers show absolutely NOTHING about how the actual gameplay is supposed to go, and the random capital S in words does not instill confidence in the translation efforts either.

AI use compounding the fact that they desperately want to reach the Roblox levels of user-generated content relevance, which is definitely a safe market in gaming that isn't also known for any sort of problems.

two days after the outage and amazon is still warning me about potential problems with orders (which include me getting my goddamn groceries, mind you!!) and yet their stock INCREASED the day after the incident. money is fake and everyone with too much of it becomes disconnected from reality

anyone who reads this and is still somehow on the fence about the product just needs to search "GamersNexus Asus" or "Asus Warranty Problems" to find out what's going to happen when (not if) you eventually need support for this obtuse hunk of plastic. here's an appetizer:
