I use this at work a lot.

Just stay away from the RoG nonsense and you should be fine.

Lizardman. Easy to confuse the two as they’re both cold to the touch by default.

Having a slap fight with the passenger in the back seat. On the highway.

Was also in a car where the driver was rolling a joint while steering with his knee.

I don’t care that they remove it from the base version of the game, but if you’re going to remake the damn thing I want the full, authentic, experience. If it requires me to download “horndog pack” as a free add on, so be it. Getting anything less is just a subpar product that isn’t worth discussing.

Isn’t Prusa expanding to the US or something? Thought I saw it somewhere.

There’s a few listed here:

But the problem is usually much larger where a game requires you to login to play even the single player component but is unable to do so with entire services going down, such as gamespy or others, more on that here:

The list grows ever larger and even some online game news publications have their own lists, small example below:

There’s quite a few others, but I do agree with the point that there should be an aggregate for all of these, that could be presented as a universal list that hopefully stops growing in the coming years.

There’s also the problem of “going digital”. Previously you’d have at least the physical disks/mediums of the game in your possession but with the ever growing digital only culture, the moment a game gets delisted and you can no longer download it, that is it. Cult classic or not.

P.S - Nintendo seems to have liked your Buddhist idea of impermanence and has done that to Super Mario 35, existed for a total of 6 months. Personally, I would’ve liked to at least try it seeing how it hasn’t been all that long ago.

2016, apparently a screen cap from when I was playing Blackbox.

They do the same with stickers here, spelling out entire phrases on the trunk, not just the frame license plate

You can tell them to remove it when they sell it to you but often times they try to get out of doing that, lack of tools or some bs.

Long story short, it’s why I own a plastic razor scraper

Unstickered about 2 dozen cars so far for people I know, ain’t much, but better than driving around with ads on your car.
