An alias can be used to see who is selling your address. If you give address B to only one organization and you get spam on B, then you know B sold your address.

Not exactly the most useful information, but it's there.

True, I may have slightly mis-interpreted their comment. Just consider this a supporting argument.

Can you walk 24 hours a day though? Your body automatically breathes during sleep, but you need to be awake to walk and not be doing anything that requires you to sit still.

Sleeping, a sit down meal, commuting, office work, even exercise like biking and swimming, all require breathing and not taking steps.

That's why it's important to communicate with them rather than alienating them.

You've seen onion armour, now fight the pineapple boss!

Undead are just a lot more vulgar in chinese culture.

We can't make plasma dense enough to have significant convention over radiance, and the longest active run is only a minute or so. We're a good way away from plasma stable enough to be called a star, although it's getting closer. Hydrogen bombs are probably the closest we have so far.

They can replicate text, but it's not very good, like AI pictures. This has led to many of them having a text phobia, so make sure to carve your name into everything.

I thought I had it running without starting steam before... That was pre-1.4 and the windows version though, so things may have changed. I know there used to be a wrapper that would start the game outside of steam, but that was ages ago.

I don't think this is because of multiplayer though, as you can just not use steam services for multiplayer and connect directly to IPs. In my case trying to run without steam started causing crashes with windows forms, so steam linux runtime is probably being used for at least a few things.

Copying terraria to a windows VM (which was far more work that it needed to be) results in something similar, with a TypeInitializationException, so Steam is needed for what looks to be some social API, maybe for grabbing social links? It's quite possible that there are more things, but I don't think Terraria requires steam multiplayer services, especially as the GOG version runs without steam.

I don't think that counts as DRM, but the end effect is similar: steam needs to be running. If steam ever dies, I'm certain a simple wrapper will be made to run Terraria and probably many similarly integrated games, but it is not ideal.

Can you not connect by IP in Terraria? I had though I had multiplayer running without even starting steam at one point...

Bitchin.

Those and "First!!!1!!" are obnoxious, but not actively harmful.

Call them lego, just like you call fish fillets "fish" and not "fishes", or how you go to the mall despite there being multiple stores.

It's not a problem unique to a dutch toy company, but that instance is by far the most common. Feel free to shit on companies as much as you want, but please don't trample the English language as you do, it's broken enough as it is.

I don't know about that. The whole company is set up in a very unique way, such swift enshittification would probably cause a mutiny.

How well the culture of just making good things is enshrined once Gaben is gone is a different question. I can easily see a slow dissolution of the company as the people who care and the people who can grab power fight.

I also don't know the internal details of the structure besides that it's very flat and self-driven. Perhaps Gaben has an apprentice? I can't imagine him being completely blind to his unique importance, surely they won't just sell the company or hire a random CEO.

We now have multiple lemmies discussing this. How many IKEAs do you have in your house?

How many Taco Bells have you eaten in the last month? I don't care if it's a restaurant, if you have more than one it's Taco Bells.

Mostly agrees on the smilies though. Basic identifying features like masks or glasses can work, but expressions and likenesses to movies are harbingers of dooms. Just give me a guy, a few wheels, a few doors, and a few hundred bricks, slopes, and plates and I'll be happys. I don't need all the unique bits that only fit one way.

-I pick up a pail of water from the river- "Look at all the rivers I have!"

-I pick up three intel CPUs- "I have several Intels."

-I hold up a radio- "This bad boy can play so many Mariah Careys!"

-I open a box of chicken fingers- "Do you want some chickens?"

-A single bolt falls out of my pocket- "Oops, I dropped a car! Where did that come from?"

-I pull out my phone and look up where that type of bolt is used- "Perhaps the internets can tell me where this goes. Maybe if I read some reddits or watch some youtubes I'll know.

-After looking a while, I put away my phone- "It doesn't look like an engine, so it can't be that important. I'm just going to go home and play nintendos. I hope I don't slip on the snows!"
