Jesus, that sounds like hell.

Yeah just gotta finish my current game and I'm switching to Godot ASAP.

If I tell you I'm your god and you should give me all your money or you won't go to heaven, you will rightly call me a liar, even though you can't really prove that I'm not.

You won't say "oh I guess there's no way to prove he's not god, so I'd better give him my money".

In science, the default stance on something existing is that it doesn't, unless there's solid proof, or at least a compelling scientific theory suggesting that it does.

Which did you use to prove there is? What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.

He's only not evil because he can't understand his actions.

A god would have to be dumb for this logic to apply.

Steam is a ticking time bomb but mostly for the reason that you don't own the games you purchase there and you can't back them up (mostly) so when Steam decides to ban your account or just closes down, you lose all of your games forever.

More people should push for DRM-free games with offline installers, like GOG and Itch offer.

How does this compare to Joplin?

Is there, or will there be a self-hostable server to sync notes between devices?

And does it support Markdown?

I used to be able to just cheat in the game. Just input a cheat and get infinite lives.

Why do I have to pay money for that now?

[-] dandi8@kbin.social 5 points 5 months ago

I'd rather they didn't do this at all.

Please, let's not nornalize nickel-and-diming your customers.

One reason is the more you're forced to work, the less energy, and, more importantly, time you have for preparing healthy meals. Therefore you're more likely to go with preprocessed, prepackaged meals or straight fast food which will make you fat fast.

I've got a relatively cushy job and cook my own, relatively healthy meals but even I find myself going for that store-bought pizza when I have a particularly busy week.

Moreover, unhealthy, preprocessed meals are basically drugs in terms of the dopamine hit, so you're more likely to go for them if your life sucks and you're sad about it.

Add to that the lack of education on healthy eating, which I'd bet is easier to come by when you're at least middle class and bam, you're a fat poor person.

It's mechanically great but the story is... Not good.

Physical media FTW. I wish it was easier to obtain movies and shows physically. I like to own my stuff.
