jdownloader2 also works for this

Over the years I have heard stories where Valve closes an account after the owners passing. This is usually because the poster said they had trouble with something and explained that the original owner passed. Valve then responds by closing the account and ignoring the issue.

With that said I don’t think large groups of people can effectively share a library/account because only one person can play at a time. Small groups like spouses, parents, siblings or a small friend group is doable because it is easier to coordinate who is gonna use the account at any given time. This is especially true if they live together.

With the Deck, I have issues where I boot up a game on my living room PC and my Deck closes it’s game making me lose progress on the Deck. Imagine that multiplied 20x. Getting kicked mid match, losing that boss fight, lose your high score, getting left on cliffhanger mid cutscene. The throw your controller rage stuff.

Yes, happens all the time on gog. They don’t have the same library of games but there is an overlap.

It must be hard knowing the employee of the month was a contractor.

You found your way here. Just wait until it happens. Alternately maybe follow Fedoras release notes

I’ve heard this argument thrown out before but my issue is always that you have a permanently declining user base since you can’t buy more copies. This is a band aid delaying the inevitable. It will not allow a game like this to live forever.

I remember there was a water treatment plant or something similar that got hacked. The hackers started messing with the levels of the chemical mixtures to poison an entire city. The only reason it didn’t end in catastrophe is because there was somebody watching that specific screen at the exact moment it happened. Seeing this made that scenario more terrifying.

That changes when GabeN passes.

Rolling out, yes. Everyone that is already covered in one of their locations doesn’t lose service because they’re no longer expanding to new neighborhoods. Likewise, moving into one of those neighborhoods makes you a potential customer.

Most of what these devices do is fairly light compute-wise. There’s no real need to have the most powerful hardware when all it will really do is add to cost. Are there use cases for more powerful hardware, of course but for most people what we have is good enough. That said, I would love an updated Shield or competitor.

Pre GME they would’ve buried them, for fun ofc

Post GME prob have bots shilling it to lurkers wondering the same thing

After the price falls, I see them having a future as a data company. They already have 1 customer paying them $60m annually. Regardless of it’s future, they have over a decades worth of data in many areas. Spez already got his though.

I agree but the average person doesn’t even know what that means.

• the arr apps have entered the chat

Don’t forget to put the system on a separate VLAN

Yo ho, yo ho…

As a user of software, I salute you.

I feel this is it but surely there are other apps following this model. I’m assuming they are probably the biggest but definitely not the only ones doing it. For good* ad-free software that is being actively developed and will get used probably every day for years, $100 seems more than fair to me. Beats paying a subscription indefinitely imo. I paid for the Plex lifetime pass for similar reasons and that was worth every penny.
*Good is subjective, just because you wouldn’t pay doesn’t mean others won’t.

Edit: formatting

I’m guessing mobile users who don’t pay for apps.

So in other words I’m above average
