Being able to filter what works from what doesn't is a great way of weeding out possible disappointments.

I wish though they were a bit more friendly towards Proton/Wine. Knowing what games are compatible and to what degree before purchasing them would make me happier.

I went into a nat science major because animals are cool, and end up being a bunch of statistics and unfun math. I want my money back.

Buddy, what you're seeing happening here might happen sooner than you think in your country. Do you think that exceptionalism and police militarization is a US only thing? Let's see what happens with all the right wing parties in Europe, from now onwards.
America is responsible for much worse crimes that occur virtually every day across the world.
Show me a rich country that hasn't been doing crimes against humanity to gain profit from it (Ireland maybe?) and yet I wouldn't blame French people for all the torture and misery they caused to Algerians or Belgians what keeps happening in Congo, koreans what South Korea is doing in Magadascar, etc. Etc. Etc.
The fact is even democratic governments like those mention here are within the spheres of influence of billionaires and it isn't like poor mucks like me have any saying nor blame for it.
I'll encourage you to transform your vitriolic hate in a productive endeavor.

The Yamaha chip (YM2612) really gave it a super grunge sound, perfect for games like Comix Zone.
That said, it still felt at home with new age music like Ecco's.The fact that we had a synthesizer playing live music is still mesmerizing me.

I hope they make an effort with the soundtrack. For me that was a big highlight on all games (specially Sega CD).

Even without opening I can tell it's the common loon, because that haunted me for years, and when I heard it as an adult, twenty years later I was like "Rogan?"
A good mealtime video about why it is so prevalent:

- Comment on Save the Tits! 2 months ago:
I think that some synanthropic insects will thrive, even running amok as competition disappears and so do their predators.
In fact birds that previously didn't show any synanthropic behavior have adapted as well, like hawks hunting during the night as city lights allow them to do so. So maybe we will se more behavioral changes in human environments.
Great tits do forage during winter instead, so they could expand this behavior longer, however caterpillars are their favorite for their chicks due the protein density.
I'm trying to be hopeful, but as you say, as long as the insect biomass is dropping so rapidly, I don't see them surviving :(
- Comment on Save the Tits! 2 months ago:
Jokes aside, tits have a key role in plest prevention and insect control. The stuff that eats our food and kills trees won't be affected by polution as their lifecycle is short enough, but we will bear the consequences.
