Because I have limited space.

I just picked up some games from Humble Bundle that I’m going to play while waiting for Unicorn Overlord to release. I think I’ll start on Loop Hero first, but some of the other games in the bundle look interesting too.

I’m also struggling with the itch to go back to ER, busy in a similar boat (around the Haligtree entrance, but it’s been around a year and I don’t think I have the chops anymore). I think I’m going to try and hold out until there’s more info on the expansion.

I did this about a year ago and haven’t looked back. The only thing that’s sometimes a problem is if a game has anti cheat stuff that’s super Windows specific, but I wouldn’t want to run those things anyway.

I’m still slowly working my way through Rogue Trader. It’s a lot of fun, but something about it makes me feel satisfied with a session after around an hour in. It’s slowing down my progress, but probably the only thing not leading to me burning out and never actually finishing the game.

I am getting an itch to play a gag, so I might pause RT, but I’m also afraid I won’t end up coming back to it if I do.

The downside is it makes Google the de facto owner of all of your online information. You could never use a Google product, but because they have such a large market share they’ll essentially force every site and platform to use their solution.

I think the disconnect here is that others are saying “they aren’t supporting us,” and your response is pretty much “lol, abandon what you’re doing and go back to the corporations.” A totally fair take, but how you’re delivering it comes across as missing their point.

Also “it works on windows” is a terrible rebuttal in a discussion where you first say “it works fine on x11”

I don’t think you know what a thought piece is. There is no analysis or opinion from the author.

Plus when people share their take on it, you just accuse them of parroting talking points. You have added nothing to this conversation past various forms of “you’re wrong,” with only insults to serve as counter points.

That said, if you want to try to explain to us why you feel a corporation taking away access to something that was bought is fair and just, I’m all ears and more than willing to have the discussion with you that you claim to want.

I believed that like 5 years ago, when S42 was “releasing next year!” Wish I could get my money back.

The ACLU tends to rabidly support anything that labels itself as free speech, even if it actually stifles it. Most importantly, to me, their continued support for Citizens United.

But maybe that’s the only real case and it’s just loomed so large in my mind for the chilling impact “corporations get free speech, and their dollars count as that” has had on the US political landscape.

I gave up when they randomly jumped topics and I couldn’t tell how they were related. And just generally felt like this essay could have been heavily edited to get it’s point across.

In general I like the EFF and the ACLU, but I do think that it’s not uncommon for them to end up on the “wrong” side because they extrapolate too far or are being dogmatic when most things have and require nuance.

I don’t think I’ve seen either of those in a decade? Maybe it’s because Firefox is my daily driver so it isn’t trying to install months worth of updates at a time.

They probably won’t GPL it, since that’ll make the fork even less appealing to companies.

It’s less than half, as can be seen by popular vote counts. Still higher than it should be, but if it wasn’t for voter suppression (as laid out in the article) the right would have significantly less power than it currently does.
