Yeah, and for the same reason prisoners should be allowed to vote too

I’d do the Sentiero Italia (Grand Italian Trail)

That’s an answer I guess

I don’t even remember the title, but it was written by Clive Cussler.

It was the dullest, most stereotypical adventure book with the bog standard protagonist and plot, with no interesting twist or unexpected event at all.

I picked it up from the library years ago on a whim and surprisingly really enjoyed it.

Well, except maybe the multiple pages long chapter about varieties of whales. That was a bit much.

No, I mean it won’t run at all.

My machine is a laptop with a nvida 960m for a GPU. Game wouldn’t even start.

Elden Ring.

I’ve bought it on sale knowing my PC can’t run it. As soon as I finally update it that’s the first game I’m gonna install.

When PES came out and it seemed to do better that FIFA I looked it up and I was amazed to find out it was from the same publisher as the football game I loved in the early 2000 and nobody else played (ISS Pro)

Yes, you can run Linux in a VM.

But also: you should be able to access your Windows partition from Linux, as it supports NTFS and FAT filesystems, and view the files there.

What I do is I have one partition with Windows, one with Linux, and a third one (with an NTFS file system) for the files I need to access from both.

First, don’t listen to his opinions on anything that isn’t about comouters and software. He doesn’t have a good track record there.

Do pay attention to his takes on technology and freedom, there’s a lot of food for though there.

I was at one of his talks recently, and he’s definitely and eccentric fellow. When it comes to free software he’s a die hard extremist, and I have a feeling he knows and to a certain extent he does that on purpose. Case in point, he mentioned how he refused hearing aids and would similarly refuse a pacemaker as there are none running on free software.

As such, that’s how I take his ideas about free software: a good philosophy taken to the extreme to showcase what’d be possible if we went all in on that, and the dangers of not doing it. Definitely not something that can work for everyone, or a realistic pathway to a world of free software.

I do think, however, that someone like him is fundamental to advance the cause of free software, even if no one takes him literally and emulates his way of life.

I’m not gonna refuse a life saving treatment or device because it runs on propriety software, but I am willing to sacrifice some convenience to use a free software alternative when available.

This has Cowboy Bebop x Ghibli vibes

They’re in on collecting data, like every other company

Yeah, of course. That’s basically what I meant: that some people buy SUVs on the assumption that they’re intrinsically safer, which is not true.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t SUVs not safe to being with? As in it was all marketing and warped perception?

Are we the same person?

I basically only play with the mouse and bird characters

I mostly play quick games, trying to come up with new combos and strategies

I find myself playing more and more Backpack Hero

The hype train is absolutely dangerous.

The anticipation for HL3 would be terribly high, and so would be the expectations of millions of lovers of the franchise, making sure anything other than a perfect game would be met with lots of negative reactions.

And it’s not just about a single game either. A bad HL3 could end up tarnishing the legacy of the other titles, forever ruining what is now a beloved franchise. Remember what happened to Game of Thrones? Who would ever risk something like that happening? Or, speaking of games, look at how much goodwill Bethesda burned with the release of Starfield.

I agree the price is pretty high for what it is, but I wonder how much adding a headphone jack would actually affect it.
