Medic!

What I hadn't anticipated in my 20 years away from Linux was not only had teams of unpaid volunteers been beavering away behind the scenes to make everything work better, other much more enthusiastic teams have been thinking up new and exciting ways to break it again.

You can blame me. Sprite Zero is about the only sugar free drink that doesn't taste like shit, and everything else took the sugar out and so Coke is the only one left for when I want a sugar hit. Yeah, it fucks your teeth up and makes you fat. My body my choice.

Honestly struggling to find decent alternatives in the UK that don't fall into the artisanal pricing category. Go past a quid a can and I might as well drink cider instead.

Ironically that probably brings in some of the most expensive games ever made, like Red Dead Redemption 2, The Last of Us Part 2 and Cyberpunk 2077. If Star Citizen ever gets finished, count that too.

RDR2 especially is an unapologetically slow paced cowboy sim, rather than the Grand Theft Horse everyone seemed to be expecting. Big games by big studios, left alone to do what their bosses know they can do.

Got all different sizes so he can play them like pan pipes.

With disappointing results!

Just think, if we'd gone full Starship Troopers with our fascism, we'd have mixed sex toilets and not have to worry if Debbie still had a todger or not.

Well worth clicking the article to see the nonsense a broken political system has done to people's brains.

"I have about seven neighbors in a one-block neighborhood that are here illegally. I love them. The ones that are in my neighborhood are great."

Yes, so what you do is support a man who will send them to a concentration camp in El Salvador. That's how much you love them.

You know you're on the right track when you click something, and suddenly the Fisher-Price interface goes away and it opens a dialog box that hasn't changed since Windows 2000.

And Valve, for that matter.

I guess we can just have games we like and games we don't, and not have to classify them either way... The line is way too blurry. It's a feel rather than a metric.

I wouldn't for a second describe BG3 as anything other than AAA. But something like It Takes Two has a very indie game feel even though it's put out by EA.

Maybe because those of us saying it probably wouldn't lead to much meaningful change got downvoted to shit.

One who looked a lot older than 76 at that.

How is it licensed, Jigsaw? Eh? What distro is it from? Is that a fucking Snap wheel?

Or that "Let's finish setting up your PC" box as if I haven't been fucking using it for ten years.

Must protect Dear Paeder.

It was killing his 17 pet cats in a bloodthirsty drug-fuelled rampage for me.

I like the music, but we can have better heroes than this.

Can you use the existing Windows partition for the games though (without it fucking them up)? Because while Linux fits in that easily, games do not.

You can add Imagine Dragons to that.

And Fall Out Boy who are Imagine Dragons for people with an eyebrow piercing.

They're kind of soulless. But I think most people just don't like Chris Martin.

Like when you see they've changed to a joint account, and you think "ooh, which one of you cheated on the other?"

And we can't even take self-published as a factor, because pre-MS Bethesda would publish their own titles too. Skyrim can hardly be counted as indie.
