As someone who's uncut, I would never have guessed that

Why are some of them prolapsed, and is that even possible?

That's what it sounded like from the last insult ("KKK**T"). Maybe "poll watcher" was code for intimidation? (not that it justifies death threats)

My games were all pirated. Covers had a handwritten list of all games on the cassette (and later CD). The first legit game I've ever seen was Mortal Kombat Trilogy and I remember being taken aback by the waste of using a full CD for a single game (iirc the game used just 30 MB of space on that CD).

Yeah, I got the reference. I just think it would be funny if one of the characters with a lisp would be the one to say "precious".

The board of directors decided that indefinite pause sounds better than stop

he mutters "it's mine. all mine."

I want to hear Daffy or Sylvester saying "my precious!" at least once during the movie

There are definitely different prices when I'm logged in vs when I'm not. My wife sends me a links to products, and I usually open any link in incognito windows. Several times I was not seeing the same price as her. Opening the same link on my account would show the same price.

Well, I haven't played these types of games when I was young. But I have no intention of spending money on microtransactions and the games I've chosen have been fun as a f2p player, so they work for me.

As for my kids, they're still in elementary school and they've been raised mostly screen-free, so it's not something I need to worry about just yet.

I thought AI was great at picking up context?

I don't know why you thought that. LLMs split your question into separate words and assigns scores to those words, then looks up answers relevant to those words. It has no idea of how those words are relevant to each other. That's why LLMs couldn't answer how many "r"s are in "strawberry". They assigned the word "strawberry" a lower relevancy score in that question. The word "rescue" is probably treated the same way here.

Games that I play include Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail, both of which I just checked and don't work on Linux due to anticheat protection. I see there are some alternative open-source launchers that would get them working on Linux and Mac, but I wouldn't risk my account using those.

Years ago I switched to Linux on my PC and everything was fine. But there was a game I wanted to play that didn't work on Linux, so I created a small Windows partition to dual boot. Later, that game became two, then three, and so on. I had to reformat some partitions to ntfs (iirc I was using reiserfs) to expand available storage for Windows to add more games. Then at one point I realized it's been a while since I've booted into Linux and I don't even know if it still works.

So yeah, use whatever fits your needs. I'll always pick Linux PC or Mac for work, but I'll stick with Windows for gaming.

For context, I've been on computers since the 8bit era and I've been programming for just as long. I prefer the power of a terminal over GUIs, my "IDE" of choice is vim. I use Git Bash in Windows for access to Linux-style commands. So yeah, I am technical and I prefer Linux for practical reasons. But when I want to play a game I want to just start it and play it, not work for days to maaaybe get it to mostly run fine except for some features.

Edit: one of the games I had to use Windows for was League. A competitive online game with anti-cheat features.

Edit2: note that this was many years ago and some other games I needed Windows for will now probably work on Linux effortlessly. At least one has native support for Linux now.
