And when they disable the download because "game is old" or "we want to remake it" or "servers are too expensive" then what?

You don't own the game and you don't sell the game. You own a temporary license to play the game and sell that license.

Just like on Steam or any digital store front.

Sure the advantage is that you can resell your license, but let's see if those cards still do anything in thirty years, like games from thirty years ago do now.

They made a really shitty situation (not owning your games) a little less shitty.

p.s.

Obviously we are also in this mess because convenience trumps ownership, that's why Steam and business models like these grew so popular.

You will get this Fanta, and you WILL BE HAPPY ABOUT IT!

As an aside, I love the irony of that speech. Musk tells the wannabe Nazis that they can forget about the sins of their (great)grandparents.

The idiots of the AFD want to forget the past simply so they can repeat it.

They want to repeat the sins of their forefathers, they just don't want to be reminded of the consequences that followed.

No one? Really? That sounds like heaven! is very introverted

Ah I see ;) I also have two loves, but my gaming pc is too heavy to drag to bed...

I know! Horrible isn't it? I just can't help it, thinking about stuff is actually fun for me... so embarrassing!

One reason why that is probably not true is because there are less positrons but if it were true they should number the same as electrons, right?

But if electrons are moving along the same "time direction" as we are and positrons are moving in the opposite "direction" then wouldn't we expect there to be less protons? As we can't measure the protons that already "passed" us? And we would measure more electrons as a some/many/all of the existing electrons are traveling alongside us?

The satellite went boing boing?

So you could just use Email in these archaic programs called Thunderbird etc. If you really wanted to use gmail. You know, without adds, without the need for an ad blocker, without AI recommendations and at your leisure.

But hey, you'd have to install something on your computer for that.... how horrible.

And who uses computers for work anyway, you can just write your essay on a tablet. (but there are also email apps on those)

It's a shittier way to work but hey it's easier.

That's the cheap chinese knockoff, Neckdobalds.

The voices in their head.

Chant with me... Indie games... Indie Games! INDIE GAMES!

Yes!

It's... it's dead Jim.

At least Lise Meitner is not forgotten, I currently work in a building on Lise-Meitner Street!

Oh awesome, I think $2.99 is totally acceptable. I might just buy it to run on my c64.

Shouldn't Arch be the recommended gaming distro? Not because any focus on gaming but because it is the distro SteeamOS is based on?

I use Arch! How dare you say that I am unhappy? I am frothing at my mouth! I am totally happy, can't you see that? CAN'T YOU SEE THAT???
