GOG don’t sell games on consoles?

Yeah i had started to move over, set up an email account, started to sign up to things through that instead of my existing account, but now I’ve mostly given up sadly. Better the devil i know for the time being when the cost of time to switch everything over is a lot, ideally I’d want to do it only once. What other alternatives do we have other than selfhosting? As I’d rather not selfhost my own mail server.

I never know where to look for such stuff outside of Airbnb so I’ll save this comment and keep in my back pocket for such a time in the future, thanks!

I had one, didn’t know what it said so i replied with something like “uhh, what?” And then immediately the audio quality changed and the voice was different as a human took over and what they said seemingly had nothing to do with the original message so i just cut them off with “not interested” and hung up

Thankfully, not all games need to phone home

A shortcut to actual ownership

No matter how good an ai can be, what it writes should never be pushed as-is. It’s just like you shouldn’t ever have copy-pasted snippets from stack overflow to fix bugs.

Alan Wake 2 is much scarier but in a tension that keeps on building and building and that you never feel prepared for when shit hits the fan kind of way rather than a jumpscarey kind of way.

I am 100% not a horror game fan but the Alan Wake games are still in my “everybody should play these” list. 2 is probably in my top 10 maybe even top 5 list of all time favourites.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head to be honest

I miss C# support, but I also think vscode’s solution for that was shit too

I actually really like C#, it’s my favourite. But don’t know how much of that is Stockholm syndrome at this point haha. But whenever I’m writing in other languages i always end up missing something i do regularly in c#, especially from it’s latest versions (which i also deeply miss when forced to work on legacy software that is still using shit like version 4 or 5 of C# (ASP.NET 4.8 / .NET standard) whereas I feel like C# really got good and fun to use from C# 8 onwards (I think this was .NET Core 3.0 or .NET 5 - we’re on C#14 now with .NET 10, with 15 on the horizon).

It’s also not really an error, that’s historically how headlines are written, because back in the day they only had so much space on the front page of a newspaper or magazine to fit it on. Obviously those grammar rules don’t technically matter anymore, but they still follow them. Although it’s more so now because link previews and search results can truncate their headline if it’s too long still.

You can do both. I do. I’m never going to own absolutely everything I want to listen to because I’m not that rich, so i only buy my favourites as flacs or vinyls. But there’s still 1000s of songs I love and will want to listen to on the reg. And then there’s the songs i don’t yet know about too.

Their purchased songs are drm free, obviously if you just stream them you’re just borrowing them. Personally i use qobuz for streaming for discovering new music and to listen to stuff i don’t yet or may never own, and on the side i buy albums of my favourites either as flacs from various drm free stores, or as vinyls, or both.

Even if a temporary solution, it’s better than sticking with spotify in the mean time.

Qobuz also advertise their family and duo plans as being among friends that aren’t living in the same house. So it’s not just something they don’t police, they actively allow it.

Why not just use Qobuz instead?

It’s a nicer flavour of doom though, not as much toxicity in the comments even when the subject matter of threads can be very doomy

Mass Effect 1 & 2 were great though…

I’m assuming it was a deliberate jab at how Bioware have been handled because that’s exactly what they did

No need to brag :p
