- Comment on Apple pulls data protection tool after UK government security row 2 hours ago:
When I eventually have my own place, I’ll have to put up something during political season to show what my main issues are.

WTF?!? No way am I ever voting for Labour now. I hope the next election gets them out.

How else do I get my £ back?
- Comment on The new Stop Killing Games petition got a response 2 weeks ago:
Interesting how the previous one would have hit the deadline by now if it continued. I wonder how many signatures it would have got. I hope this new one will be able to get more traction. It would be interesting to see parliament debate this.
- Comment on The new Stop Killing Games petition got a response 2 weeks ago:
Looking at any petition that crossed the response threshold; their responses just seem to be explanations on the current regulations/policies/etc., rather than any agreement to action. I suppose this response makes the other possibilities a bit clearer in regard to what is/isn’t possible regarding perusing UK game ownership. I guess we’ll need to cross the debate threshold for anything meaningful to come of the petition.

… you are a little girl made birthed/raised by potatoes?
Sounds like a TTRPG character concept.

- Comment on Bethesda, you just entered the no flight zone 4 months ago:
I downloaded Yuzu from flathub before Nintendo went after it, but continued to use it after.
I had to expand the swapfile on my Steam Deck to prevent it from frequently crashing, but I don’t really care about frame rate, so long as it’s playable. I’ve not been paying attention to my frame rate.
- Comment on Bethesda, you just entered the no flight zone 4 months ago:
As a Nintendo fan, this is pretty accurate.
Although getting joycon drift twice and then being able to play TOTK free from drift by pirating it onto my Deck may have finally brought the roots free.

So, does it stand for My Trans Fighters, or Male To Female, or something?

…?
Someone explain? - Comment on #StopKillingGames Update: Denmark passes threshold as initiative reaches 1/3 vote milestone 5 months ago:
Yay!
Things are going well.
Hoping to see France meet the milestone since that’s where the focus of the campaign was.
I wish I could sign from the UK.
- Comment on Concord is going offline beginning September 6th 5 months ago:
Who, other than children, do not know this yet?
Their parents, new/casual games, charity shops that might want to resell, etc.
It just slaps a big bold 'haha the fuck you isn’t even in the fine print anymore’ label on a product and makes our cyberpunk dystopia a little bit more obvious, but doesn’t achieve any useful goal in terms of altering actual game design/support or consumer rights.
True, but that would make it slightly easier for offline games, games that allow for private hosting, and games with an end of life plan that would allow it. They would be able to compete more easily if they could be easily identified. That could then insensitive companies to add end of life plans.
A step in the right direction would be great. Even if it’s a small step.
- Comment on Concord is going offline beginning September 6th 5 months ago:
I believe another alternative would be to make it completely clear that you’re getting a temporary license. You shouldn’t be able to try to make it look like you’re buying a game when you don’t then even own.
- Comment on Time for self-care 5 months ago:
The bare minimum is still exhausting though.
- Comment on Or even a few days 5 months ago:
I don’t really like dogs.
One time I was studying for the day at a dog owners house and I was asked to let the dogs outside in the garden at around midday. They didn’t say to let the dogs back in, nor did it ever occur to me that they wanted that. They started to get quite loud in the afternoon.
- Comment on "Oh yeah, I love working under pressure." 5 months ago:
I can work under pressure. Just not mental pressure.
Pressure from heavy blankets is fine though. - Comment on Ukraine war latest: British-supplied tanks used in Ukraine's Russian incursion, BBC told 6 months ago:

Bottom looks least unsettling.
- Comment on 98% compatibility 7 months ago:
Great comment.
Not sure why Steam Play isn’t on by default.

I’m afraid you’ll need to achieve lichdom for that.
- Comment on Let's discuss: Super Mario 7 months ago:
Mario being such a big part of my childhood makes it sad that stuff takes like 100 years to enter public domain.
I wish it was 20 years.
Imagine how much easier fan games, modding, and emulation/preservation would be!Galaxy was amazing!

Interesting. Thank you.
- Comment on Liz Truss loses seat as ex-prime minister becomes biggest scalp in Tory bloodbath 7 months ago:
It amazes me that she nonetheless came so close to keeping her seat. Who voted for her?
I don’t like how it was a labour landslide. I hoped it would be more balanced with the tories getting fewer seats than green if any.
