Is this fun for you?

For some people, possessing any empathy at all qualifies as “virtue signaling”.

Building more housing only reduces the cost of housing if you don’t allow all of it to be turned into air bnbs. We need to modernize zoning laws.

Meaningless hair splitting. I still have my entire collection of SNES cartridges. They’re still playable, and no one can take them short of robbing me. If my ownership of those games was limited to a license that could be revoked, that might not be the case.

That’s not the story Billet told.

That’s not how you spell “steals”.

That is absolutely untrue. Games used to be sold as a physical object containing the game files. No serial numbers to redeem, no servers, no downloads or updates. Sometimes you’d get a booklet with the game that had some codes in it that the game would ask for on startup to make making copies a little more difficult, but that was it.

You’d literally have everything you need just on the CD, disk, or cartridge. We 100% owned the game and the system it was played on, and the only way to revoke that would have been to physically break into your house and steal it.

This whole games as services thing is about 20 years old tops, and it wasn’t even remotely approaching the standard for quite a while after that.

Imagine being lucky enough to have hands and squandering it with capitalism.

Looks like it’s mostly being covered by left-wing and neutral sources.

I won’t give them a dime until it’s for Elder Scrolls 6 or Fallout 5.

Honestly the mix of 2d and 3d makes me want to play it. It’s giving Roger Rabbit vibes.

This headline is wild. It’s basically the biology news equivalent to “so much for the tolerant left”. Bonobo society is peaceful because they stand up for their young rather than just allowing infanticide from males. Their relative peace compared to their male-dominated cousins is a result of actively refusing to tolerate that sort of violence among their own groups.

Why link the paywalled repost instead of the author’s actual website?

I came here to say that I don’t think the author of this comic has ADHD.

You can also use 0patch to continue to get security updates for Windows 10 if you find it’s still a good fit.

It’s set in the 1490s because that’s the current era in Forgotten Realms, just like the first games were set in the 1360s because that was the era that was current at the time. It’s not like they actively chose that specific time period for any of the three games.

This is cool, but I’m still waiting on a way to play Secret of Mana online that’s actually viable.
