So because you do it correctly, everyone else should get fucked or what? Like, you know how many people have bad parents?

So, congrats, your kids won’t suffer from that (or maybe they will once they have their own money because the path way of “spend a $1, get an in-game item, get an instant rush of feel-good hormones” is forming even with moderation). But other kids may, unless of course you think that it’s somehow their fault they have shitty parents.

So no, I really don’t want this around kids whose lives will be ruined just so your kids can have a fun time (which they can have in other ways, including other games).

Nah, I’m obsessed with corporations not ruining kids lives just to get few more dollars.

Also, please, stop putting words into other people’s mouths.

Cool, that’s why half the games you listed are just gambling machines in disguise?

Ah, the classic “world hunger is a myth, I have eaten today.”

I’m not saying there are not the rare gems in mobile games (just bought Don’t Starve on Android last month!), but like 99% of games for mobile are just s money making scheme using dark patterns to influence your brain to give them money.

And congrats on not spending on micro transactions! You do realize the world doesn’t revolve around how your perceive things, right? If young people are exposed to micro transactions like that, it alters their brains and not in a good way. And that’s science, there really isn’t much you can argue with.

Because the games are intentionally made with micro transactions as the main feature.

Like, if you play Witcher or Control or whatever, the focus is on you enjoying the game. If you play Fortnite, the main focus is on getting you pay. The game is probably still fun, but every single thing in the game is meant to make you pay.

Who would’ve thunk, young people with brains that are not fully developed tend to prefer games with addictive elements.

It literally does the same thing, except it’s self hosted?

Sure, sure, only women have societal troubles, men are just oppression machines, am I right?

Anytime a woman even mentions having an issue online, all the wannabe “equality” proponents lose their shit, but whenever men mention what problems they have, they’re just lying scumbags and deserve it anyway.

Hope you feel proud.

I recommend caddy as a webserver, it’s very powerful, but the config is super simple compared to old school stuff like nginx or apache.

You can use frp to do the same thing a CloudFlare tunnel does without giving them your unencrypted data.

That’s true, but ISPs have logs. And if something happens that makes the police change their mind about enforcing the law, you might be fucked, retroactively.

If you live in an area where you need a VPN to keep your ISP off your ass

Uploading copyrightes material is illegal pretty much everywhere I know of.

You probably missed the word “better” in there.

I mean, they can’t really tell you “here is a torrent with the necessary assets.”

They have to pretend they don’t know what pirating is so that Ubisoft’s lawyers can pretend that’s not what’s really happening for a huge chunk of the users.

So yeah, you can buy it (it’s usually cheap on GOG) or you can pirate it if that’s your thing.

Yeah, that one would be huge, it’s pretty much the only thing I envy Mac users.

Unrelated, but thanks for that site! Now I know what my neighbours download.

Portal - Still Alive

I started using CTRL+R with McFly and now I don’t use the up arrow, except if I remember it’s in the last ~10 commands.

Nice. Always wondered whether there was such a software, but was too lazy to actually search for it.

Can’t speak for nowadays, but long ago when I dabbled in WordPress myself, the code was pretty shitty and insecure.
