This seems like a ridiculously loose use of the word subscription.

Would you say you subscribe to 700km worth of fuel in your car, subscribe to light bulbs in your house, subscribe to your pencil that is getting slowly worn down with each use?

I see that now. I’m not browsing piracy only so half the posts I see are general Linux gaming questions along the lines of yours.

Install Heroic.

Log into your gog account in Heroic.

In the Heroic wine manager, check that GE-proton is installed.

Install Stellaris. By default it should install any DLC you have too.

I have to hear about how we wouldn’t have modern rock music if it wasn’t for The Beatles.

As much as I love collecting books, I’ve decided now my shelf is so full, my next reading purchase will be a kobo instead.

Records and books mostly. But I just moved my CDs out of my storage space.

Hell yes. And every time I see it pop up, these points come up, usually a bunch of times. So people know this shit is trouble, and it’s still blowing up.

Your response to someone who doesn’t understand boundaries (have you set those boundaries with them or just expect them to know?) is to be a jerkoff? Laughing at yourself isn’t your biggest worry here. Re-visit this whole thing from the start.

When I pour Pepsi into a glass I put my nose over it and feel the bubbles fizz on my nose. I’ve done this since I was about 7 years old.

I don’t know anything for sure, but always thought it was more likely to filter out contaminants in your pipes?

I like to recall some wise words of Christmas in these dark times:

Here’s the deal, newbie. You can stuff your stocking with shiny little toys from now until you grow some testicles, but until that stocking is filled with friendship, loyalty, love and devotion, well… it’s just plumb empty.

And no, you can’t purchase those things at Laura Ashley. And no, you can’t win them in the red book giveaway extravaganza. And, gee, I’m sure if these aren’t things that you can wind up and watch spin for eight hours.

Let me make this exceptionally clear. Christmas is about love. You can’t live without other people’s love. Not during Christmas, not ever.

So go spend this time with your friends and family. And if they laugh at you, laugh with them. And if they laugh at you again, hit them and go find some new friends. But for the love of god, jesus, Mary, and Joseph and his technicolor dreamcoat, don’t ever ever forget this, newbie. You have to give love to get love. So start giving. Now.

“This town needs an enema”

😮

What’s a diagonal house? I image searched it but still not clear.

Sex workers deserve to get paid. But there are plenty of people offering free porn out there, and those sites aren’t hard to find.

I always find the sentiment of “no updates, no downloads” to be not quite right in the context.

The chameleon likely would’ve been more at home with Indie/retro-inspired games. The games that have mastered the concept of ongoing updates without punishing the consumer.

Terraria and Stardew Valley in a state of constant evolution, still getting better 10 years, 15 years after their release.

Dead Cells, Dredge, Vampire Survivors, Binding of Isaac, Grim Dawn, No Man’s Sky, Brotato, any number of other indie games that have lived on for years due either massive or incremental updates.

The solution works for the AAA games problem. “The game should be playable and feature complete at launch”. For these games, the DLC is often just cash grabs, looking for reasons to milk customers. The “gold release” state not being updated later requires the multi billion dollar studios to finish, polish and deliver.

But these are not the kind of games the chameleon would have been able to play, its wheelhouse would have been the indie games that started out as fun games and became something a hundred times more over time.

Season 5 of Supernatural was the logical endpoint

You mean lithium cells ready to become spicy explosives?

I would want the great rechargeable eneloops for sure. Those would have been game changers in the good way.

Doors.
