Where’s the, “my email address in the from field will do”, fall on this? 😂
- Comment on Given how paintball guns work, could you swap paintballs for a waterballs? 1 week ago:
Thanks for the heads up! I’ve not played paintball so I didn’t know what kinda paint the standard stuff was using, and was mostly thinking about a way to minimize any clean up involved.
Kinda contrary to some of the fun of the game, but everyone likes to play differently.

Thanks for the link, and clear paint didn’t occur to me, so that may be a good option too!

Mentioning @Diddlydee@feddit.uk here to address you both in your similar corrections rather than duplicate my reply: I stand corrected.
I see that I had misconstrued my personal misgivings with the penalties of failing to pay with a lack of legal ownership.
It still feels off, precarious, to describe it as ownership to me, but I recognize what you’re both saying regarding the legal standing of it all.

hello frog, that is sad to hear, have you tried calling doompost?

Own as in mortgages/loans paid off, I take it? That’s the slight distinction I’m thinking of with expensive items that typically can’t be bought outright. It’s not wholly owned until mortgage/loan is paid off, which you kinda nod towards with your last sentence.

In the vein of houses and cars, yeah. I should get in a better habit of elaborating on ambiguous terms in the body, only haven’t as I’ve mixed experience with people skipping over those.

How does one account for maintenance costs with this view? Even barring taxes, you may have to pay for upkeep either in materials or contracting out services to assist in maintenance.

Thanks for this info! I was unaware of this given how rarely it’s mentioned.

- Comment on Why isn't free stuff (public domain/noncommercial) discussed as much as paid stuff? 2 months ago:
That addresses a slightly different question. Supposing people know of the free stuff, why isn’t it discussed more?
- Comment on Why isn't free stuff (public domain/noncommercial) discussed as much as paid stuff? 2 months ago:
Good points! Although I feel like I may be out of the loop on some of the discussion/mention of archive.org stuff, which likely speaks to me being out of it more broadly regarding discussions of other related materials.
- Comment on Why isn't free stuff (public domain/noncommercial) discussed as much as paid stuff? 2 months ago:
Kind of surprised there aren’t more comments along these lines. This was floating around the back of my head as much as some of the other responses.

- Comment on Is there another term for crafted, interactive activities besides games/video games? 3 months ago:
That disconnect in expectations is definitely what I had in mind in asking this, yeah. One hears game, thinks fun, it doesn’t fit their idea of fun, and the game unintentionally disappoints in the process.
- Comment on Is there another term for crafted, interactive activities besides games/video games? 3 months ago:
Or like some exhibits in a museum, but also media like Flower. It’s called a video game, but I feel like that’s for lack of a better term more than anything. It’s lovely whatever you may call it.
