The other side of email is that it has become the default identity provider for the Internet. If that VM becomes unrecoverable somehow, how would you get access to your past emails?

This is probably the fault of Collective Shout.
Valve is in a position where it has to weigh if a game will be deemed too unsavory to cause a response from payment processors. If this game becomes the tipping point then stram ad a platform can no longer exist.
Getting the word out about games like this is probably the best thing that can happen at this point. It will put it on the radar of the people that are interested and it will let the art exist in a way that isnt totally ephemeral.

Is it like this for car guys too?
Like, if you finish a bunch of work replacing head gaskets or some other work that involves taking half the engine apart, when you start it for the first time is there a nagging feeling like “What if I forgot something and I’m about to ruin thousands of dollars?”

I mean, depending on the situation, and this is much harder for neurodivergents, that’s not the worst advice.
Chances are you’re making a much bigger deal about the situation than it realistically is. The consequences for failing to meet expectations are probably not as bad as you’re imagining. Taking a step back to look at the situation holistically can sometimes break you out of the spiral

Establishing that good is ferrous or an electric field feels like it should be a heresy
- Comment on How do you beat post-work floppiness? 4 weeks ago:
This.
The first 10 minutes of any activity after work is by far the hardest, but once you clear that hurdle it’s easy to keep going

There are at least 4 Bad Dragon toys on that shelf. I’d defend them too. Those fuckers are expensive
- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 4 weeks ago:
Most people here are recommending controllers with the Xbox layout. They are correct in most cases.
However, if you’re a weirdo like me that mostly plays 2D games, I highly recommend getting a Sony DS5 instead as the Dpad is in a far more ergonomic position for that.

For one to love another so similar to themselves, is that selfless or vain?
To be fair, the pair she is referring to are literally identical. She’s not criticizing them for being gay.
- Comment on Babadook enjoys some wine 5 weeks ago:
To be fair, if you get invited to what is ostensibly a party on Halloween, then it’s expected that you should dress up unless it’s explicitly stated otherwise.
This dude was right and everyone else was wrong.

Having seen the entire run of the 80s show somewhat recently, Adam is at best a bad friend to Cringer and at worst downright abusive.
Like, Cringer has sapience. Full stop. He can talk and everything. Generally he just wants to stay home when Skeletor is up to something. Then Adam rolls by and transforms into He-man and then strips Cringers abnormal intelligence away, turning him into nothing more than a growling beast named Battle Cat that he can ride.

The part you remembered is the important part, you’re only missing the extra flourish. Overall that’s a much better outcome than the inverse

You joke, but I would absolutely play that
- Comment on Oppa oppa 1 month ago:
No, it just means that you believe that the artist’s intentions are more important than your own interpretation of a given work. It’s the other side of a philosophical debate about the meaning of “art” as a whole.
- Comment on Oppa oppa 1 month ago:
Death of the author is a thing.
Whatever meaning you derive from a piece of art personally is just as valid as the intended meaning

- Comment on Mina the Hollower has been delayed 2 months ago:
I would much rather the game be polished and good on release rather than put early. The demo was great so I trust the process.
Plus It’ll give me more time to finish Silksong
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 2 months ago:
God Hand is probably the most underrated game on the platform. Dont let the visuals or the crass humor turn you off. It’s made by Clover (the same devs behind Okami and Viewtiful Joe) and is mechanically deep to an absurd degree. Easily the best beat-em-up on the console.
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 2 months ago:
No. I don’t think The Boys would be an accurate portrayal.
I think it would be much worse. Like apocalyptic.
- Comment on Okay now what if I show you this image and tell you it's an actual conversation between me and my brother? 2 months ago:
Yeah, pretty much, but not quite as hot so you can sit in it longer, and it’s not a social activity which is nice if you fall on the introvert side of things.
- Comment on Can anyone ELI5 the severity of this? Emerging Unity game vulnerability 2 months ago:
This is a pretty big deal and should be patched, but it’s not the worst case scenario. The worst case scenario would be if an attacker could do this remotely through your game.
Basically, if someone has the ability to change the shortcut on an end machine to specify additional arguments, your game could be used to run malicious code on that machine under the guise of your game, making detection harder.
The benefit is that modifying a shortcutis not an easy thing to do without tricking the user, or using an already established remote control of the endpoint.
However, this is still a vulnerability and one that should have a minimal impact if it were patched. You should install this patch if you make games with Unity.

Baths are fucking awesome though.
The only 3 arguments I’ve ever heard otherwise are:
- Baths are for girls and gays
Already a nonstarter if I don’t care about fitting into your fragile idea of masculinity
- You just can’t get clean sitting in a tub of dirty water
You’re supposed to shower first, baths are about relaxation not cleanliness.
- They’re a huge waste of water
This is a fair and valid argument, but if you limit it to be a special treat once in a while, then it’s really not that bad
