I've got to say, Steam's native Wine/Proton implementation works decently well, and really entices me to buy games without native Linux support on Steam.

Absolutely fair point, you may well be right. I pretty much agree on all points.

I want to say ARP. Can I say ARP?

Daily reminder that the first bombs on US soil were not dropped in Pearl Harbour, but the US bombing itself to kill communists and labour unionists.

Followed by brrrrrrBRRRRRRRaaaaAAaAAaAKRrrrRKrrrKRrrkrKRrKrrKrRkrrrrrrrrrrr, in my experience.

I-Is this serious? This is literally what The Pirate Bay is now.

I struggle with this, I make a minor effort but what am I meant to do when my high Cha, high Diplomacy character is more charismatic and diplomatic than me? :( I either skimp on the RP or do some very unrealistic RP as my awful unconvincing wording magically convinces the NPC anyway.

This seems like the right take. It's based on expectations.

Though slightly cliche, this just feels right. That niece has learned a great lesson about how collaborating to improve things is always possible, and that open-source relies on everyone doing their bit.

Dang, that's beautiful, nice shot.

This explains a lot, thank you.

Hexbear is an explicitly left unity platform, MLs included.

They used the "Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking", a pseudo-scientific test that measures and evaluates absolutely nothing of any objective measure or value.

Though I personally don't know who of the two evils would be the worse win in the long run, yes, agreed, very much this.

Doing an insanely small amount better than the other slave master is not a good thing. "They stabbed me five times, but the other guy would've stabbed me seven!".

Sure, please vote for five-times-stabber instead of ol' seven-timeser, but by gods neither are worth defending in any sense.

I agree it's work, but I also assert that, under Capitalism at least, it's exploitative work that targets and injures the vulnerable and poor even more than the majority of other work. You cannot buy enthusiastic consent.

Seemed like most of the arguing was because that seems to be a uniquely American phenomenon. Anyone outside 'merica has never seen or heard of such a thing happening.

Plenty of other good relevant replies, I just wanna express my admiration and love for being open and asking questions. I've seen a few people from other instances show genuine curiosity like this, and it's quite heart-warming. Hope our instances can intermingle posts and ideas happily and constructively

That's my point. You need those Steam keys to get the full experience. If you pirate it, you don't get it. Therefore for some games, resellers > piracy.

I'm supposed to be paid for this???
