I haven’t played much of the older ones, but I really enjoyed Rifts Apart. It’s beautiful, but it’s also mechanically super polished and fluid, and while the storytelling isn’t really my style, I think they do it reasonably well.

Imagine questioning someone’s motives over calling out an openly deranged nutjob, and trying to use it as a mark against the candidate who isn’t a deranged nutjob.
I’m not downvoting, but the fact that kernel malware games don’t work is a feature to me. It would be a full time job to keep from installing anything that demands obscene access for no legitimate reason on Windows. “It doesn’t work” is way easier.
Pretty much everything else on Steam works without effort.
This is absurd.
Typing “Logitech unifying software download” in the address bar is massively less effort than navigating their shitshow of a site. It’s not a sign of inexperience in any way.
Allowing an ad with any third party download is an insane policy, and it is not a legitimate practice at all to use an unreliable third party with a well deserved bad reputation to download software in place of the manufacturer.
That’s disgusting.
Usually “expensive money” means that it’s hard to borrow.
“Devalued” refers to purchasing power. “How much food will $1 buy me?”
They’re describing different things. In terms of the economic relationships that result in the current scenario, I’m not even going to try. Ignoring that we don’t really know and a lot of traditional economics rely on the assumption that actors are rational (which we now know is absurd), I’m far from an expert in macro-economic theory. Systems are complicated.
Google’s proprietary “RCS” and iMessage are the same thing. They’re proprietary apps that work on their OS and are useless for intercommunication.
Their proprietary extensions are for the same reason Apple took forever to implement it.
RCS still sucks.
Even video has come a long way.
It isn’t actually good, but you can tell what’s happening.
You can run Python reasonably well with pythonista or Pyto (I like pythonista, but Pyto supports some PyPI libraries). Apple’s Swift playgrounds is pretty decent for Swift. They’re all only up to a point, but you can do plenty of actually interesting stuff with them. I use them on my current iPad (and run the Python scripts on my phone).
But 4th gen is old, so it’s quite possible none of that works. Maybe web stuff with something like Textastic if you pay for shared hosting somewhere, or a low end VPS isn’t crazy expensive and lets you run code. If it’s consistent power that’s your concern, raspberry pis can be paired with one of those portable USB batteries if it can be charged and send charge at the same time.
If those options are still too expensive, really no clue. It’s hard with no money at all.
You pretty clearly don’t know what a call to action is, or an ad is, because “please give money” is very obviously a call to action, and many ads make no effort whatsoever to sell any product.
Yes. It is literally impossible for an organization asking for money not to be an ad.
And yes, showing me a single ad once means I never give them money again. I am not OK with ads.
Yes, it is an ad. Any call to action is an ad.
And its mere presence will ensure I don’t give them any more money. The core concept of inserting any ad in an OS is not behavior I am willing to reward.
It’s not complicated.
It’s an ad.
There’s no version of advertising I will ever be OK with.
It’s implemented as a KDE Daemon (KDED) module, which allows users and distributors to permanently disable it if they like.
Eh. I guess good enough.
But I’m still opposed on principle.
Old works lol.
Wall of text?
I answered a suggestion with very clear preferences that something not use a trainwreck of a directory structure and you pointed me to a post on how to make a trainwreck of a directory structure, so I wrote a short paragraph again clarifying that I’m not OK with that.
I don’t want anything automated. I just want to be able to do it manually with a database that handles all of the metadata and organization and literally no folders but the top level one containing every file. Calibre’s insistence on me either having incorrect author information or splitting everything with multiple authors into unique folders for every combination is most of the reason I can’t stand it. The actual bulk editing tools are good. The end result of a mess of folders isn’t.
I’m not OK with folders, especially nested folders.
I’m aware of it and explored it a little, but the folder structure requirements are the opposite of what I’m interested in. I want to dump everything in one place and use the UX of my reader to manually build series, adjust metadata, and do everything else.
Most of the benefits of it are really only useful in its browser based reader, which is also a dealbreaker, and it doesn’t really add anything to Moon Reader because OPDS integration doesn’t actually sync anything, which is the whole reason I’d want a dedicated server over just having everything in a cloud drive.
It’s cool if it works for you, but it doesn’t really solve any of the problems I want solved.
Teach them how to evaluate sources on the internet.
Seriously, all the hardware/OS whatever is cool, but if you want to really make a difference that will affect everyone, teach them how to find information, how to evaluate it, and how to use internet reference material.
