Don’t use Wikipedia as a source if you want to come off as serious. Thats like, middle school level knowledge, at least in our schools.
I was spot on.

Do you actually don’t know, or is this step one of a contrarian about to start their brilliant exposé?
Lets assume this is sincere and you don’t have access to a search engine: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

I’ll take a non-maga right wing user over a tankie any day. It’s not even close.
- Comment on If you are a young person you have no idea how bad everyone and everything smelled until at least the 1990s. 2 weeks ago:
Even as a kid I always liked the smell
And the cold tobacco doesn’t bother me either
However there’s one tobacco smell I don’t like, when someone smoked a cigaret very fast before boarding the train/bus. It’s a very strong, musky smell

I think I’ve figured out why I don’t mind them.
They’re really skittish and will run away when I’m around, and tend to stay on the walls. Chances are you won’t ever touch them by accident.
So I’m fine sharing the house.
Also I never seen more than one at a time. It hardly feels like an invasion

There’s already so little content on Lemmy, I’m not sure that was really necessary.
What about political satire, will that still be allowed?

I agree, you are “more owner” with a GOG game.

There are no products for which you get the IP because you bought one unit.
Not a book, nor a car. So I don’t see how that’s relevant.
Sorry if I misunderstood your point.

You can resell, trade, give, lend a book you bought. You’re just not allowed to do the same with any copies you’ve made. At least where I live

Just to be clear: my main point was that you don’t own any more the game bought on GOG than on Steam.
And there are definitely upsides to this type of market. Although nowadays I wouldn’t buy a triple A just released 70€ games knowing I can’t sell or give it (not that I play those much anymore). The games I actually want to keep a few and far between. I buy second hand Switch games for my nephews. It’s cheap, I’m actually giving them something, and they can trade them with their friends or sell them to buy fortnite skins the little shits
Again, not hating on GOG, I’ve been a customer for a long time. No DRM is good, but mainly I don’t want any kind of launcher. I play 99% solo games, don’t need no updates or multiple clicks to launch a game.

We were talking about legal offers. Are you legally the owner of your game.
Of course you can share, reproduce, pirate … but that’s not the point here.

Can you sell them? or trade, give, even lean? My guess is you can’t. And when I was a kid I did all those things.
It’s not anedoctal IMO, but a change in paradigm. I’m not saying it’s all bad. I buy games on GOG. But I don’t own them really
A 2015 study in France showed 54% where more willing to buy a game when they knew they could sell them when done

Lenovo Explorer. I don’t play VR games really, but it’s fun when my little nephews visit (the A770 handles simple games like Beat Saber well). Outer Wilds in VR seemed like a good time to dust of the headset but it’s a bit too stuttery. I didn’t look for any type of fix or optimization though.
But if you’re serious about VR gaming Intel Arc is not a good idea for now. However on /r/intelarc some report good results, saying it varies from game to game.

I’m testing it in VR, the modder did an amazing job. Unfortunately my GPU absolutely blows with VR games (Intel Arc A770)
