If there is a AAAA title I need to play, I’ll pirate it, because fuck investors coming to this space and ruining it for everyone. However, this remains hypothetical since one has never come along that I’d rather play than the games I buy from actual human beings.

I am less concerned with the long term traces we leave. Social interactions are ephemeral (or were, prior to moving them to the Internet) and we are here trying to meet our social needs, not necessarily to Build A Better World. I am all for the things we say naturally expiring and falling out of the record.

What bothers me is how a living conversation can be killed. And in such a way as to make it difficult even to find the people you were just interacting with again, if you don’t happen to remember their account ID.

I think it’s the only fair compromise. I think we should respect a right to delete. But I don’t think that right to delete should be powerful enough to smother discussion. The person who started the communal thread should not have the power to silence everyone who participates.

I’m so sorry, so deeply grieved to tell you, yes, it is. Please educate yourself. It’s life and death for hundreds of millions of vulnerable individuals.

It’s also horrific animal abuse. Actual atrocity.

Show this post to your therapist.

ABC results in voting NDP and sometimes Green, Animal Liberation, etc. but not CPC or LPC.

Pretty sure that was a given. Doesn’t need to be said.

Yeah. No shit. The LPC is literally a right-leaning party. ABC means ABC. Glad you’re up to speed.

Dig 2 didn’t really develop things like I hoped but they’re both fun little games

Whatever Spotify wants, probably our best interests are the opposite.

It was cheap so I bought it on the basis of this thread and it’s a fun little game but the “programming” elements are vastly overstated. Compares with Noita, not with Desynced, or a Zachlike

You seem to be saying that CP is losing money on their revenue-generating business facing services like flier delivery. What’s your source?

Some people can never, ever get enough attention. They always feel an unbearable need and will do or say anything to temporarily relieve it.

It’s not enough to simply not purchase EA product. One should actively oppose theme. ALESSANDRO.

why? what’s the commonality?

It’s fucking my shit right up that AW apparently ran on SCUMM??? That can’t be right!!

Ran an ISP on a Pentium 90 and a few 486s. Linux and FreeBSD!

A year ago you’d probably get heckled for posting that. Rightfully, but probably for the wrong reasons. And since then the fashion has shifted again and people don’t so much mind looking like colonialist apologists for exploitation.

Yes, and? That’s exactly why mods exist. The base game continues to improve and to add critical features designed and fleshed out by mod authors. Are you consarned that they haven’t all been rolled into the base game?
