Last time Bethesda just moved then out of steam and made money off of them on their own platform.

Think about the Pentium versions of the Celeron, too. XP was their peak time.

Do it 2 days before highly anticipated mod drops

It’s not attitude they are giving you. It’s strong recommendation. It’s the strong recommendation of the entire Linux community.

Sudo is different than run as admin and is not intended to be used to do things the way Windows does them.

And not just that, you’re a mercenary. There’s only so many types of tasks you get hired for. CDPR did a really great job differentiating gigs from eachother IMO.

Sure some of them are cookie cutter, but there’s a story behind them and sometimes you can link that story into the overall world. Sometimes there’s choices to make that impact the outcome. Usually there’s multiple ways to approach it. And very few of them have the same layout.

There’s 89 Gigs in the base game. I didn’t at all feel ripped off that some of them are similar. I’d rather the gigs feel similar than have them encroaching on the side quests in feel.

I thought that on my first playthrough but feel like much of the polish was added by my second one.

The game is long. 100-120 hours a playthrough isn’t for everybody. As long as you feel satisfied that’s what counts.

I’ve seen scrub/dish daddies and did not know the mommy existed

There’s an app for that.

Yes, but other cars aren’t operating inside enclosed tunnels at all times.

My hot take was “the notoriously hackable companies are now trusted to not get hacked”

That makes it sound more like it is Linux, but not GNU. Which is accurate

Man. Maybe I’m lucky, but the five guys near me is 11.29 for a full sized cheeseburger with no sides. 12.69 is the most expensive one with bacon but I usually just do the little one which is 8.79.

They do charge an arm and a leg for the fries, though. Which I guess is to be expected since their measurements for a small fry is “all of them”

My money is on its not pushing Pro hard enough.

Back in my day we just looked at photoshopped pictures of celebrities like respectable men!

I had this thought all the way to the airport, once. Got on the plane without knowing the answer for sure.

I did lock the door, it turned out.

As somebody who frequently dislikes extremely popular movies, everybody else has trash taste.

Inception was just ok and Interstellar got me to stop watching Nolan movies all together.

I just now discovered why people are hating on Ubuntu pro by receiving a note that Ubuntu will not provide security updates for some apps it came with unless you activate Pro.

I think I’m done with Ubuntu on any personal machines.

It’s completely fair that your view on the pricing is different than mine.

Complete transparency, I do play their ads sometimes. I only refuse if I’m watching on my phone directly, but I cast from the official app. And I will have YouTube playing when I’m eating or playing a game on the steam deck.

The thing people should be referring to instead of it being a racket is that YouTube has a stranglehold on creators. I can watch streaming vids on another service, but if I want to consume content from small creators, I have to use YouTube. There isn’t a real option for alternatives.

So, I do provide the platform with some money. Then I pay creators in a way where they get a higher dollar amount than YouTube would give them.

“Racketeering” is definitely the wrong word.

I’ll put it like this. I think YouTube Premium is too expensive. I also think YouTube is too aggressive with it’s ads.

I opt to send them that message by using an ad blocking service tailored to YouTube and paying the content creators in other ways.

If the family plan weren’t 20 dollars a month to cover 2 accounts I would probably buy it. But they opted to offer only 1 or many never just 2.

I’m capable of affording it. I pay nearly every major streaming service monthly even when I am not using them, so long as their cost is reasonable.

YouTube Premium’s cost is not reasonable. Especially when you consider they are still collecting and making money off of your data in the end.
