Absolutely love this game. Played it from beginning to end on the PC multiple times over the decades. The original floppy version that is, not the poncy CD version he's using! πŸ˜‚

30% is the cut only if the sale happens on Steam itself. Devs can sell keys through other means and Valve gets 0%.

Good on you for getting it fixed. One of the reasons Linux is a great OS in my opinion is that everything is in the file system and not in some arcane hidden thing. So every problem is solvable without a reinstall if you're motivated enough to figure it out.

Not sure what you have against minimum wage, it works well in other countries (I'm from the Netherlands). Obviously it doesn't solve everything by itself, but it's definitely a valuable part of a range of measures to treat people fairly. It's a fantasy that everyone can be educated to a level above minimum wage.

Firefox has been able to block all third-party / cross-site cookies for ages. It's just not the default because it breaks some sites. But dive into the settings and you can easily set it to block all cross-site cookies, or even all cookies if you prefer.

Most of the delays are effectively from pre-ordering. I ordered mine just after last Christmas, got it the first week in January. Would have probably been faster without the holidays. Also, get the AMD model if you can, it's much better than the Intel offerings.

Kernel panics are pretty rare though, I've had a lot more bluescreens than kernel panics in my life. If you want to criticise Linux for being complicated go right ahead but implying that it's unstable is a really weird take IMHO.

You should seriously consider a flip phone if pocket size is your main concern. They've become really good by now.

I've had it for a couple of months now. Sure, it sucks, and I can't work currently, but I'd much rather have this than die though. This will pass (almost everyone gets better in a couple of years max), death is rather final. Also, don't kid yourself about the people that had COVID but don't experience long covid. Many of them have permanent changes to their body too, they just don't know it.

Oh I agree with your post, but I was responding to Valmond who used different criteria.

You can have all three of those, but you won't get great performance. The Samsung QVO SATA drives are a great example. I wouldn't use those for an OS drive but they're fantastic for NAS or media use.

My i3 has an OBD-II port, and it's not the only EV that has one. Bimmercode can change A LOT of vehicle settings through the port, and software like ABRP can use it to read out the battery level and route you to the next charger when needed.
