  You won’t own your AAA games any more

  Meh, solid indie games are usually better anyway. I’ve generally actively avoided AAA titles. Undertale, Cave Story, Slay the Spire, Hellcard, Slice & Dice, FTL, Noita, etc. can barely be touched by even the grandest AAA titles. Shiny graphics a compelling game do not make.

  Move to Linux! I would be happy to personally help anyone here who is interested yet unsure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My free and open source games now have versions made in scratch.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You should probably capitalize the name “Scratch” or else it sounds like you made them “from the ground up”/starting with nothing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Any good indie games on steam? Can be any genre.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The best 3-person co-op is the deckbuilder Hellcard; it blows StS/2 out of the water, IMO.

  This is partly why it’s been so hard for me to leave my job, haha; my higher-ups fully let me create, find, and/or use any tools I prefer to get the job done.

  Geez, the half-color clicking is really counterintuitive. Why couldn’t they just go with radio buttons or something?! Thanks for the detailed instructions.

  Off-topic: do you have a guide on how to get uMatrix to do this blocking? That sounds great but it looks to be all manual. Do you run it with uBlock Origin?

  SupCom will never displace TA.

  I finally added all of my accounts to playnite.link (a FOSS, all-in-one game library manager), which reminded me of the RTS Loria that was given away last year or so; I think I’ll finally crack that open soon, figuratively speaking.

  Died in Noita, again.

  Gameplay-wise it’s still fine!

  Gadzooks, how did you know about my army of venture capitalists ready to EA-ify any budding game studios such as this one? GUARDS!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fallout London's volunteer modding team to launch as a new indie studio [Eurogamer]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Awesome! Hope they survive…

  Prey is one of the greatest games I’ve ever played.

  Yep, and yet, for some reason, I just can’t bring myself to play through it a second time.

  So immensely creative.

  Then they could do so with fewer emissions!

  Painful childbirth is claimed by the Bible to be a literal curse from God in Genesis 3:16, so, yeah, I’d reckon that it’d be hard to top that!

  I was implying that it could be <10 years if there was no opposition to the new tech.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New breakthrough may let us charge smartphones in 60 seconds⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Mostly due to lobbying?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The level of engagement on Reddit these days⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Kbin is constantly spammed with “buy online drugs here” links.

  Got examples? I’ve never seen this once as a Kbin user.

  What will stop bots from coming here? Registration filters and user reports?

  All of that is incredible except the pineapple. It’s like eating Italian-sausage ice cream or something. Both are great separate, but certainly not together!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Is Paying Reddit $60 Million for Fucksmith to Tell Its Users to Eat Glue⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago⁩:

  Seconded!

  Will the probability of it making it in compound if we all say it?
