Well the south might as well retake the north now.

People have survived without tools like this for thousands upon thousands of years. I think we can afford to wait a few more until there’s a privacy-respecting method behind it. I know we won’t, but I’m sure we could have.

Couldn’t I just block whatever account throws in advertising?

I’m not sure. I haven’t subscribed yet.

Can’t afford two extra spaces to turn that comma into a “and”, apparently.

Or domestic?

Not a fan of whatever that D-pad is. I’m also curious about the battery life.

Thrilled to see twin touchpads though.

The more handheld PCs get made, the more I become aware of just how ahead of the curve Steam was with their deck design. I actually thought it looked gaudy as hell when it launched, but since using it, I can’t get over just how unexpectedly handy anything is. I just wish there were better haptics, since I’m kind of a sucker for that kind of stuff.

I was thinking East when I wrote west. Something is wrong with my brain.

You mean 1,000 sq kms of East Ukraine?

Edit: I need help with my cardinal directions.

I was thinking something more in line with a narrative story-based shooter like half life. TF2 and other competitive shooter arena games were never really my thing.

A new shooter from valve? Hell yeah!!

a hero shooter

Oh. Never mind then.

I do not think developers should be compelled to add single player modes to multiplayer games, but I do think that server software should be open sourced as a multiplayer game is shuttered. I believe the studio is entitled to royalties if a server host is profiting from their discontinued game, but I also think that servers for discontinued games should be allowed to be run as nonprofit, charging only as much as necessary to keep the server active and healthy, and not be charged royalties.

I say this having not watched any discussion on the topic, nor knowing anything about how any of this works.

I bought an Apple Watch for anything but fitness. If I happen to get a little anxiety, the watch will pipe up to mention something about my heart rate, and that usually just makes the anxiety worse.

A side thought: what would the world look like if you needed to be 18+ to make a social media account?
