The fascination to Mohammed is because he’s the last prophet sent by Allah, similar to how christians portray Jesus (not exactly the same since Christians believe Jesus and the Holy Spirit is also similar to God, whereas in Islam prophets are just messengers of Allah, and cannot be compared to Allah.)

DRM can still ruin the user experience a lot.

For a simple example, I have bought Fallout 3 on Steam, but I cannot run that version on Steam on an old Windows 7 machine by default even though its specs are enough to run it, I need to do some workarounds to launch Steam in the first place, and at that point I’d rather download it from a pirate site.

How would my experience be on the same machine with GOG? I can download it directly from the site, or if I cannot connect to it because of browser incompatibility somehow, I can save a downloaded copy to my flash drive from another computer, then transfer its files and it works.

Some old games might not implement Steam DRM and therefore work with the file transfer, but it doesnt work all the time. On GOG it always works because no DRM.

GOG games you download can be copied and played on any other computer without the need to connect to an external server. You do not even need the GOG Galaxy client to install the games you bought there.

Though Valve is a fair argument

I’ve packed some food with in a freeze bag alongside some frozen water bottles in it to keep it cool. But appearently water is not allowed within a size limitation, and that somehow includes ice. I’ve had to argue for 10 minutes about what is solid/fluid and they eventually let me keep it.

Did you know there exists 1200 kinds of bamboo? Let’s cover up the whole world with them instead of datacenters :D

it’s a straight downgrade for me, so no way I’d replace it as my daily driver.

I could consider one if the prices go down like below 600$ range, switch up my media center with it maybe. Impossible with the current prices though.

Nintendo lawyers when they turn old enough to become a grandparent

There’s always some imperfections in emulation, and you can offload storage space for the game to a modded ps3.

Its PS3 rom shows up on CoolROM, could anyone try it on an emulator or a modded console? I currently do not have access to either

Edit: PC version shows up on MyAbandonware, also could give that one a try.

As a big fan of Splitgate AR and Titanfall, I have my fair share of dissapointment. The game overlay gives the vibes of a Splitgate AR reskin instead of a seperate game with its own identity, but the gameplay itself is different enough for sure. But stuff like the chat bug that disables team/all chats on Splitgate, or weapon progression being a 1-1 copy of Splitgate makes me think it should’ve been cooked a bit more before releasing as a demo.

Anything that worries the Israeli government is good

Downvoted because not an unpopular opinion.

Whoever creates the community, please name it something like PancakeEnjoyers

A lambo compared to a shitbox is an acceptable difference for wealth. 100 Airbus A320’s combined together for a single person to travel is not an acceptable difference to either side, which would be a roughly equivelant comparison of a a billionaire, a millionaire and your average person.

Dropping all of that budget to art universities to have them teach Adobe software primarily. Inkscape, Kdenlive and GIMP do not have the funds to compete in this way, and once people learn a software to do their job, it becomes really hard to switch. Sure, enthausists can learn other open software, that’s not my target audience. My target audience is the one that uses such software to earn their money, and most of them will pursue higher education before doing so to learn their tools better, and Adobe will make that money back really easily with their subscription plans.

I remember ZUN mentioning he’s lost the source code to this game, so this is pretty much rewritten from scratch. Incredibly based move

Just having it toggle with a prefix like how COSMIC launcher does would be the best option imo.
