Word. It's not hoarding it's "yeah I'd pay $16 dollars for that one game and I'll give a couple of others a go". I didn't just never get around to Kane and Lynch, I never had any interest in it.

For the topic of the thread I'll throw in "toilets that are so bad at flushing that you need to keep a plunger next to them"

The only time I've owned a plunger was in a house with a broken clay sewer pipe that was about to kick the bucket.

"We leveraged the fact that many people know about the world and story of the original Final Fantasy VII when we designed the remakes," Hamaguchi told me during the leadup to Rebirth's release. "In this title, our general framework follows the original storyline, but at the same time we incorporated elements clearly not included in the original, such as the Whispers and Zack." This creates a unique opportunity for a remake: uncertainty. "That sort of thrill is very important for this title as a piece of entertainment."

We have a name for that, "reboot". Or more cynically, "cash grab"

This article seems to have a bizarre assumption all the way through that the schools must use Microsoft 365.

Obviously Microsoft is failing morally and probably legally (what else is new), but the schools also have a moral and legal requirement to choose software which protects the rights of the children. Microsoft is sort of right in the way they surely didn't mean; schools have the responsibility to not use Microsoft 365.

I appreciate the ambiguity in your comment created by the missing pronoun.
