I don’t get NixOS

It’s not for everyone. The idea is to have your entire system reproducible with a few configuration files, which you’d then ideally store in a VCS like git.

I haven’t messed with it, but there is something appealing about the ability to reboot to an older snapshot of the system if an update breaks something, or being able to use a config file to restore your system to the exact OS version and exact versions of whatever apps you use.

Which other Sim games are you eyeballing? I’ve been craving a good non-EA Sims game.

Wait… so it’s just a hardware middle man for Do Not Disturb?

You can leave the key behind

Fun idea until I’m out and about & realize the one app I locked would be useful.

“Fraud” is the correct term here.

… the aqueduct?

I listened to the first 4 tracks, and skipped around the rest to get an idea of the content. Lots of good stuff!

• Great job mimicking the tone of Hades’ music. It has a fantastic OST. Korb also wrote Bastion’s OST, which is worth a listen, too.

• In your soundtrack, I think there needs to be more balance between the “wall of sound” harmonies vs. lyrical melodies. IMO, the best game soundtracks are the ones you come away from humming a theme, and I struggled to find one here.

I think “Through Asphodel” is a good example - melody kicks in about 2 minutes in. From what I heard (which wasn’t everything, admittedly), you have the background metal sound figured out, but I think you’re missing that soaring melody in some of these.

Just my two cents!

“I think the argument to make is that The Crew was sold under a perpetual license, not a subscription, so we were being sold a good, not a service,” Ross says in his latest video. “Then the seller rendered the game unusable and deprived it of all value after the point of sale. It’s possible that argument won’t hold up either, in which case I think there’s no possible way to stop this practice, at least in the United States. But to the best of my knowledge, this angle has never been tested in court and might actually have some teeth."

It’s a good point. Interested to see how this unfolds.

First, it robs the creator of their income

… you mean the creators that are currently striking because massive companies Disney, Netflix, and Co don’t want to pay them a living wage?
