You don’t own games generally. It’s always a license for software use. You may own the game, if you buy the company and the license is fully under its control.

Software is not a product. And there is no guarantee you will be able to run it forever, even if you made a copy of your entire setup. It’s especially the case with Windows, because it’s bound to a specific hardware that will break one day. Microsoft also cares less and less about gamers (see what they do with their operating system for consumers) and they have a way out with XBox. My bet is that Windows is not making money for Microsoft anymore and it will degrade more and more. Gabe knows it and has a strategy against it. If you’re a gamer and want have games on PC, use Linux and support the good cause.

Probably not, because it’s a lie.

I noticed my posts don’t get submitted when I swear. I also don’t post in this case, because sometimes you need to swear to make a point.

That’s why it’s also called Curry-Howard isomorphism.

Programs are mathematical proofs. If maths cannot be patented, software can’t be, either.

It is a good way to have a fire hazard at home, if you don’t know what you’re doing.

It was getting better after the circuit board came off. (also: gifs that end too soon)

Also, I doubt that Google wanted to destroy XMPP. They simply needed a chat then noticed it’s crap for mobile devices. They wanted to offer their users seemless migration to the new proprietary protocol.

I was sad that Google stopped to use an official standard, but there are many better free options left.

My favs:

• Bossfight - Milky Ways
• Teminite & Panda Eyes - Highscore
• Panda Eyes - Antipixel

That doesn’t make sense, because Android is quite open. You can literally download apps everywhere from the internet.

The only thing that you’re not allowed to do is to take advantage of the Google store and circumvent their microtransaction system. If you want to have own microtransactions, do it on yourself.

Wait, I thought the terminal/shell was the modern UI…

I’ve been using vim/neovim for more than a decade. Here are my favorite plugins (ranked):

• junegunn/fzf
• junegunn/fzf.vim
• bling/vim-airline
• airblade/vim-gitgutter
• w0rp/ale
• Shougo/deoplete.nvim
• tpope/vim-surround
• tpope/vim-fugitive
• tpope/vim-unimpaired

It looks like Gitea. Is it a fork?

It’s called entertainment. It makes as much sense to mix up addiction with games, as with NFL, football, TV, movies etc.

And if Hamas thinks that Israel does not have a right to exists and they have the right to kill everyone there, the occupation wasn’t necessary. It’s a vicious circle. Hamas is not in position to present themselves as victims. Their agenda is unconditional and the occupation is not the reason they kill people. They simply lie.

From a private end user point of view yes. But in enterprises Windows and Office is successful. Lots of money is going to Microsoft here.

To move out of a country, you need to give up your possessions and you need to have some money to pay a few things on your way without being able to work.

EU, especially Germany has encoded free asylum for people who have to flee a country in their constitution. What do you want more?

Everyone is looking at Egypt and Jordan. These are the next countries that could act. But they are shitting at the EU. Well, fuck those hypocrites.

It’s easy not to talk or not to read content from other people. Why is age relevant here? It does as much as sense to me as to have an option to block other genders, religions or even skin colors.

I don’t feel uncomfortable talking to kids. Why should I start to be?

Kids and juveniles can learn a lot from adults. Conversations with adults make them smart.

I don’t believe this is the right way.

Thanks for the explanation. Since KBin is more fragmented and does not build up enough steam for further development, it’s maybe a better option to move to Lemmy at this point.
