I may or may not have torrented so many games, software, movies and albums without any VPN. It went well for years until we got one of those letters.

Fuck Windows XP
I think it’s allowed to hate anti-customer practices and have good memories of an actually somewhat user-friendly OS that just worked for many people in many other regards.
I hate Windows. I will always fondly remember XP and Win 7. Windows 7 should’ve been the last Windows.
So I am not mad at you. You shall be forgiven, and I am even going to turn the other cheek and give you an upvote. It’s what Windows XP would’ve wanted me to do, too, I am sure of it.
- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 3 weeks ago:
Clonk Endevour is not my favorite game, but I played it a lot with friends when I was younger. You can play with 2 or even more people, with just a monitor and a keyboard! Also it’s so old it should run on any potato.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 teases new creatures and co-op among the coral 5 weeks ago:
I hope they leave that experience the main focus.
Hmmm, so in the short Devlog on YouTube they ask “what do you wanna see in Subnautica 2?”, and the top comment says
A personal wish of mine is to have proximity chat in multiplayer, with options such as radios to communicate from a distance
So the players want Multiplayer, but they also want the whole game to be the same “intimate” experience as Subnautica 1 – I was really worried about that because a big part of Subnautica 1 I feel like was this absolutely overwhelming loneliness/solitude. I never got this specific feeling in Below Zero.
- Comment on Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WEST 1 month ago:
I do believe people should have the right to spent their money however the f they want, but this becomes extremely problematic if you don’t at least regulate their spending behavior, either directly or indirectly.
So okay, now you have a society full of hopeless addicts, but at least nobody has to starve. Sound kinda… dystopian if you ask me

There was a similar mission in GTA San Andreas btw, I think they took inspiration from that. It wasn’t nearly as cool as the FC3 one though

I immediately recognized that scene, it’s the mushroom trip! I loved all the trippy scenes in this game. Far Cry 3 OST was the first game soundtrack I put on my phone to listen to outside of the game, too (leaving the PlayStation on to blast Crash Bandicoot 2 Sewer or Later level music on the TV on max volume doesn’t count lol).
Back then the Ubisoft formula was still fresh and games made with it were actually a ton of fun.
- Comment on Anon gives up on Bitcoin in 2010 3 months ago:
We may or may not have used bitcoin to buy substances and weed on silk road and… I think it was dream market, not sure, back in the day. 1 bitcoin was ~350€ at that time. I watched bitcoin become more and more valuable and less and less usable over the years, which at first I thought was very odd, until I realized that everything that roughly resembles a stock market is more or less mostly used by gamblers.

“Used” is not “same company” because you’re not buying from said company.
- Comment on What games have you sunk the most time into? 5 months ago:
Almost 1000h (~970) in Deep Rock Galactic
Rock and Stone!
- Comment on Making peace with liking very few games? 5 months ago:
I usually only find like 2-3 interesting games out of 200, but the ones I did find were pretty sweet. Sometimes you’re not lucky and exclusively play trash.
I mainly enjoy 2 types of games, ones with replayabilty (Stellaris, Rimworld, Slay The Spire, Roguelites in General, some RPGs) and short to medium single player games which I usually only play once. If you don’t like the second category, my recommendation is definitely the wrong approach, yeah
- Comment on Making peace with liking very few games? 5 months ago:
Limit Internet usage and avoid games and other entertainment for a few days, then go on itch.io and just play whatever. Not because it looks cool, not because it’s popular.
- Comment on I'm tired of every game being live service 7 months ago:
I wish they would stop releasing updates and DLC for Stellaris, so the modders have a version they can tinker with.
