Some are DRM free and can be backed up at your leisure. I'm pretty sure that's up to the developer to implement or not.

It would be neat if steam let you sell a game back, but I'm not sure how to square that with "you have a drm free copy that's trivial to copy"

Probably. They could have used their wealth for anything but they're like dragons. Do you mourn for dragons in stories of knights slaying them?

I was going to point out how heroic launcher is fine, but that's not a store.

That's not really Valve's fault that all the other storefronts don't care to support Linux, though.

I enjoy many social interactions.

Went to a concert this weekend. Chatted with the person running the merch table. Briefly chatted with a rando at the bar. Was nice.

Went to a party this weekend. Had a nice chat with some people I'd met before. Maybe came on kind of strong to the socialists in one conversation, but it was fun.

Lemmy probably isn't going to get you a representative sample of people.

Guild wars 1 and 2 are good games. The second one is still very active.

Cool. I'm so tired of management huffing their own farts about AI.

You could probably make it look like an accident. "I guess the LLM was having trouble reaching my account after I was deleted, so it posted everything to pastebin so I could see it there"

Still risky and a funnier fantasy than good idea.

Many people only learn when something bad happens to them. Poor empathy and primitive moral reasoning.

I'm working at a mega Corp now (not one you've probably heard of) and it's a fucking farce.

We had a meeting last week about some problems with the current process. People kind of nodded along. Meeting was drawing to a close. No concrete tasks or assignments.

I say, "great. Who's taking lead on this? Can we have a proposal by Monday and make a decision by Wednesday?"

Suddenly management people are like "whoa whoa whoa stay in your lane"

Okay then why don't you fucking manage?

This happens all the time. We have long ass meetings with the whole team, talk about problems, but then no one is assigned to do anything and nothing changes.

There's just so much incompetence and ineptitude. Some of it is probably coming from hidden, bad, incentives

DND is a weird mix of too many rules and not enough rules.

The real magic is I can walk to several open bodegas almost any time of day or night.
