In middle school, I set an alarm for 1-2 in the morning just to wake up and go back to sleep.

There must be more specifics about that too. I know games I backed on patreon needed to make the price for a key higher since steam wouldn’t allow it to be gifted at a lower cost. But Humble Bundle does that, so I’m not sure where the line is.

Yes, but I was thinking something as simple as “I’m cold, and I want to turn the fan off,” requiring looking down long enough for court to say it’s a phone. Adjusting literally anything can make it less straightforward, regardless of actual action. But yes, I only see an interior camera as a disadvantage.

It’s creepy. And it may make me an asshole to say, but I’d never want an interior camera in the event of an accident. It makes the following court case so much more gray, since you now introduce the opportunity to say “they were on the phone, talking, listening to music, whatever” and shift what should be a clear cut case into something more.

only semi related but ive been gifted with soft skin, the kind that old men would handshake and say “you never worked a real day in your life!” i work a blue collar job. some people are just gifted.

This seems like a good thread to ask: I got a spare, handmedown chromebook and wanted to linux it. What the fuck should I do for that?

I’m working on a Starfinder campaign, so explaining all of these and the lore becomes more complex. I’m homebrewing a lot of the lore, because I’d rather make my own than learn a different one (and it lets me make things up on the spot that I don’t know). I know for one planet, its industrial revolution made its inhabitants flee underground, since the surface became too hostile. Magic helps with a lot of explanations too.

Yes, and that also means that the stores like Epic and EA are only fighting to be at Steam’s place in the monopoly. They all want to be the one store/launcher everyone uses. They’re not doing anything particularly different, so no one would even bother trying.

This is probably dumb to ask, but how does this relate to something like Humble Bundle? I know for things like Patreon for example, devs I supported needed to require a minimum total supported before giving keys.

which i absolutely believe. when i see dealerships selling oddly colored cars they tend to have a 5k discount. my friend got a equinox that was a but strangely colored for less, and in my area a kona had a 5k discount for being hi-vis green. plus i imagine anyone wanting a specific color would just go to a shop for it.

Oh absolutely. The reason i preferred Windows over Mac when I was younger was being able to use what I want (in a general sense). If they did that, I’d immediately have jumped to Linux. And even though it didn’t happen, it just delayed the inevitable, as I’m migrating every piece of tech I own away from the Big Guys^tm.
