Yay!

Things are going well.

Hoping to see France meet the milestone since that’s where the focus of the campaign was.

I wish I could sign from the UK.

Who, other than children, do not know this yet?

Their parents, new/casual games, charity shops that might want to resell, etc.

It just slaps a big bold 'haha the fuck you isn't even in the fine print anymore' label on a product and makes our cyberpunk dystopia a little bit more obvious, but doesn't achieve any useful goal in terms of altering actual game design/support or consumer rights.

True, but that would make it slightly easier for offline games, games that allow for private hosting, and games with an end of life plan that would allow it. They would be able to compete more easily if they could be easily identified. That could then incentivise companies to add end of life plans.

A step in the right direction would be great. Even if it’s a small step.

I believe another alternative would be to make it completely clear that you’re getting a temporary license. You shouldn’t be able to try to make it look like you’re buying a game when you don’t then even own.

I’m really into Computer Science too.

I got a degree, then spent a year job searching to end up working customer service; carrying drinks up and down stairs for a few months. I eventually got an internship doing programming.

It’s nice to finally have a job in something that I’ve been interested in for a long time, although now I guess a very large amount of my time is spent using computers. Also, even if it pays more, I suppose writing code where I don’t even fully know what it’ll be used for feels less “rewarding” than serving customers.

Perhaps it’s simply because there’s less benefit to more obsolete stuff that there’s less pressure to study it, thus it’s more fun?

When something becomes a job, it becomes less fun. It’s often good to keep work and hobbies somewhat separate.

I’ve heard of something called “Red Eclipse”, which seems to be under CC-BY-SA.

Disabling Manifest V2 will break a lot of extensions apparently.

 
 

I'd known I had Asperger's practically all my life, but it wasn't until much later that I'd heard it be called "a disability" and I took a lot of offence to it. It looks like this was actually the first meme I ever made.
