I’m a fan of Steam. People will complain about monopolies but then want there to be a monopoly for this kind of software.

I’m just saying, there is a clear double standard in this post/comment section in general where Valve gets a pass.

Steam is a launcher.

Bye bye Steam. No more of that easy proton integration.

I’m playing contrarion at this point. We already established a good use case was to download to watch offline. I’m just being a little shit because you’d have to come up with a scenario where the Internet is down basically to explain the offline home network. Or subnetworks, which are definitely not common among households.

So you do not have a home Internet connection?

Ah, offline downloads via Jellyfin, makes sense now.

Right but, and I understand you aren’t the person I was originally replying to, they said offline. Offline, so NOT on all these devices out there in the world. That would very much imply ONLINE.

Why are you using Jellyfin to play offline media? Isn’t the point of Jellyfin to have access to your media through a network?

I haven’t wanted to pirate a game this much since Hogwarts.

I work for Spectrum. I cannot officially speak for the company, of course, but…We don’t want to be doing this shit, either. We give people 12 strikes. First 4 I just a notice, next 4 is modem quarantine until notice is acknowledged, next 4 we also sent snail mail, with the last one being a 1 year suspension. Anyway, I worked in repair for 5 years. Not a single person at any level gave a crap. Sups, managers, VP’s. “We give them 11 chances to figure out they should use a VPN” was the common attitude. All these warnings and man-hours taking calls and dealing with unblocking modems is a waste of time and money.

Where do USB “thumb drives” land here? Unreliable as long term storage like SD’s?

I second this, and they have a digital only plan that is just $10/month. You can use their app, which is actually very good, to track your food. They use a point system to simplify the process.

Sadly yes, JimmyBigSausage. Sadly yes.

It came out in 1992, at the end of the NES lifecycle. The SNES was already out and many people were only interested in games on that platform. This is why end of life games like Little Samson did not sell as well as they should have, and consequently, only had one small production run. That, in turn, is why these games are among the most expensive and sought after by collectors. There are just way less of them out there! I would love to have a Little Samson cartridge, but I don’t have $3000 to spend on a Nintendo game lol

Ah, I see you have met my countrymen. I’m in St. Louis, so I escaped the accent that is prevalent in the center of the state.

Er, I mean, yes. Here in Mizurrah, we talk like that. now i have to go warsh my car before I go drive on highway farty-far.

Can confirm.

I would bet that just like with “woke”, the right is going to take “weird” and use it. It’s what they do. They are the masters of projection, and love name calling. They’re shameless, too, so if you call them something, they just take it and turn it around. I am positive if this “weird” name calling campaign catches on, it will just become another right wing buzzword.

Being the only competitor in a race and winning by default? Believe it or not, right to violence. Right away.

You’re sad, and I am sad for you.
