Because to companies, labor is just a business expense, you’re a cost to be kept low so they can please investors/shareholders. Our system isn’t for your average worker, it’s for the people who own the businesses.

I feel like it’s hit-or-miss. A lot of people will zipper merge, but a lot of other people don’t care and mess things up.
I do not believe, at all, that linux needs to grow. We don’t need to appeal to every casual pc user, because for most of these people what they are using already works just fine for them - and if they don’t already have the drive to learn about and try linux on their own, there’s no reason to shove it in their faces.
I really don’t have a place or space to display them, so they sit in a bin on a small shelf w/ my other retro game stuff. I’ve never minded the lack of spine labels since I’ve always had them in bins, haha. There’s even some hidden gems on the platform!
Nintendo 64 games.
It was the first game console I really played much of growing up. I’d go to my dads on the weekends and he had it there, so it was this magical time, playing Ocarina of Time and Mario Kart 64. I’ve collected nearly all the games I grew up with, as well as some I never played as a kid. I like having it, knowing that at any time I can play them, in their original forms on hardware. Emulation is great but playing on hardware just hits different.
A lot of games increase difficulty by just turning up HP and attack numbers, and part of the fun of souls games is that that’s really not how they handled difficulty.
Final Fantasy VII. I was never able to beat the sephiroth boss fight. I enjoyed the story, but I don’t feel the need to play it again.
A lot of weed
I just use it as a place to vent my thoughts, feelings, or frustrations in the moment. I think of it as “screaming into the void” and over time you collect a small circle of people you regularly interact with. Don’t think about it too deeply because it’s not deep
If I’m being totally honest, my primary use-case is gaming. I only have linux installed on my device, and if a game doesn’t work, I simply play other things and hope it will eventually work.
Sometimes, with some effort, you can get windows programs to work using wine. For example, I was able to run Mod Organizer 2 to mod skyrim without issues. If that fails and your software won’t work in wine, you could either find alternative native linux software or just dual-boot. I used to do that to play VR games in windows 10 since I’ve had issues running them in linux. Another option is to run a windows Virtual Machine whenever you need whatever software you can’t get working, but there’s pretty bad performance limitations unless you can get hardware passthrough working.
I’m really not convinced that even if linux, at some point, does become a better platform for gaming than windows, that windows users will swap over. Mainstream gamers probably have never installed an OS before, it’s intimidating for people.
People just don’t have the spending money anymore for phones. Especially given how expensive the flagships are.
I know it’s maybe not a great replacement for everyone, but this crap is why I stopped using YouTube and just use Peertube now.
It is, but most of their library is DRM free, so once you download it, those files are yours. Steam won’t let you launch a game without logging into your account, gog doesn’t even check.
I’m not going to argue the ethics of piracy, because the point is that a lot of people will do it if they otherwise cannot afford to buy games. Also, some games just never really go down in price, especially if you’re talking nintendo. To this day Breath of the Wild is still $60 if bought new or digitally.
The problem that they’re not considering is that if they raise the prices, more people are going to be priced out of buying the games, and will resort to piracy. The cost of living is absurd right now, and I can only afford a handful of $60 games a year.
Kde defaults to a windows style layout, but it’s very configurable by design. You can freely add and customize panels with different widgets. Kde has different design philosophies than Gnome. Even with a similar dock + menu bar layout, features vary or are handled differently.
Sure. But eventually is better than now. Because as long as it isn’t in a landfill, and it’s not broken, it can still be experienced. Honestly, even when I’m not using my Nintendo 64 games, I like just looking at them.
If collecting brings you joy, do it. It keeps retro hardware out of the landfills.
I have only managed to convince ONE person to watch Neon Genesis Evangelion, tragically, because it’s my favorite tv show of all time.
