Learning the language of the country you’re moving to should be the bare minimum of what’s expected of you. I’d suggest taking a history lesson if your goto is comparing it to Nazism, seems rather disrespectful to actual victims of the Nazi Party.
Ownership in terms distribution of digital software is a bit funky I guess, but from a consumers point of view, there’s really nothing GOG/game companies can do once you got the installer. You’re effectively owning the bits on your hard drive and there’s nothing they can do to control what you do with those bits. I guess from a lawyers perspective it may be different, but in practice there isn’t much.
I’m not sure what you’re getting at with the licenses though? A game licensed under MIT would be free to share, attribution shouldn’t be much of problem.
The vast majority of the bestsellers on steam either have normal DRM or DRM via being an online service. At least the bestsellers in 2023.
Put the installer on a USB stick and sell it. I assume you’ve never gone back to the electronics store where you bought your dishwasher and expected to sell your used dishwasher there.
Edit: For those interested it’s Van Gogh - The Scream.
Is this some Swedish psyop meant to trigger Norwegians? The Scream was painted by Edvard Munch.
You also didn’t link to the actual painting.
TIL I write better commit messages in my hobby projects than some Linux maintainers
My lower back can’t handle the volume. I’ve had to set up my program with at least one rest day between heavy back exercises like squats, deadlifts, RDL, etc…
Pathfinder also has fairly detailed difficulty settings panel, you can tailor the difficulty to your liking. Story mode difficulty and auto level up presets makes the game beatable for even your grandma, so you can ease into the system.
There are also some great guides out there for different builds for both companions and main character.
Graphics and voice acting, but only because they randomly stop speaking and go to pure text during dialogue. BG3 also doesn’t have Blackwater…
100% agree with the rest. I really hope Owlcat gets inspired by the more dynamic elements/environments from Larian’s games though.
Weird, they used the latest version of C++ at my university. Had to use Assembly and C in embedded though.
Which in turn reposted it from a Roman source
> claims most steam games are drm free
> shown that most games that people play aren’t drm free
I missed the part where I cared about this conversation anymore. Enjoy your weekend!
Alright 🙄
Did you miss the part where I said I mostly excluded them?
The steam link should explain it, it’s the biggest games on steam in terms of revenue.
Out of the non-free games 2/6 platinum games have DRM. 8/9 gold games have drm. And that’s ignoring DRM via being live service game without support for self hosting server (a big portion if you also check the silver games).

Disclaimer, I used perplexity.ai to ask if each individual game included drm or not. Ignoring DRM that is one time verification and support offline play.
This new law should absolutely include every game store on the Internet.
If you buy a game on GOG, you can download the game and put it on 100 USB sticks and sell each one of them with a fully working copy for perpetuity. You buy the game on GOG. Just because the shop may go down doesn’t mean you lose your product.
How accurate is this map? If the Irish call football soccer, it would be most shocking thing I’ve learnt in 2024.
As I’m sure my home instance reveals, I do like the idea of focused instances. I think a general sports focused instance would be better than sport specific instances though, at least with lemmy’s current size. It’s not sustainable to pop up an instance for every sport out there, like strongman or arm wrestling.
And people would also have to be able to sign up to the instance. Which if I remember correctly you had a very different opinion on when you spoke to Snowe on !meta@programming.dev about programming.dev. Just from a technical standpoint, the federation latency and general wonkiness is real and is why my football bots are running on Lemmy.world despite programming.dev being my preferred instance. Near real-time communication is important during live games where minutes may drastically change the topic.
And while I’m sympathetic to your cause, inertia is a real thing and lemmy.world is competently run, even if I strongly disagree with their VPN restriction.
If you somehow managed to convince the other sports communities to migrate to a common instance I’d happily follow along though, but I find it very unlikely happen. ReadyUser31@lemmy.world is the one primarily in charge of !football@lemmy.world
Better visuals and much faster/cheaper for the developer to make.
We are still in the infancy of the technology and the vast majority of games with ray tracing doesn’t fully utilise it as they must compromise to support normal raster, leading to half baked implementations on engines not designed with ray tracing in mind.
