  • A Robot Named Fight - “Metroidvania roguelike focused on exploration and item collection. Explore a different, procedurally-generated labyrinth each time you play and discover randomized power-ups to traverse obstacles, find secrets and explode meat beasts.” Links: Steam - Website (It is also available on Switch, link on website)

    I have almost 500 hours of playtime and still go back to it every now and then. Really awesome game with superb music, graphics and feel.

    What’s extra cool is that the lone developer open-sourced the game code, available here: OpenARNF on GitHub Sadly I’ve yet to see any mods, spinoffs or anything else come from it.

    My main problem with DDG is that it doesn’t show the dates of results. A lot of the time, I need to know that to get the information I need. I used it for a couple of years, but I was constantly forced to go back to Google or Bing to get the information I needed.

    I found Kagi earlier this year and tried it out, and it’s as close to perfect as you can get, IMO. I really can’t recommend it enough. It’s like being back to “the before times” when Google was king, with the addition of many other features. It’s a paid service, and I’m more than happy to do so for something like this. No tracking, a ton of features, very well designed, and results that never fail. I’ve shared my account with family and friends, and everyone has mentioned how good it is after trying it.

    Sorry if it feels like I’m a shill for it, I’m just super happy with it and really feel like everyone deserves to know about it.







  • As others have pointed out, the original article is from 2012, and even with similar rulings in EU countries more recently, it will take years before we see any result of this.

    But I think the ultimate answer to your question here is: yes, that would become a thing.

    But there is so much to this that makes it hard to predict how good it would be. Who decides the price? What rules will there be on when and how you can resell?









  • Mega

    I pay for it anyway since I was lucky enough to get a few accounts on a private forum where everything is shared via mega, it’s very active and a great community. Only a few times I haven’t found something I was looking for there, and that was quickly solved by posting a request. (The only way to join is to get personally invited. And no, I won’t use my invites for randoms, don’t ask).

    Haven’t used torrents for close to a decade now, it’s nice to have basically anything easily findable with direct download from mega.
