Dude, “Luanti” sounds like a cool name even without knowing its origins.

This argument is similar to hating on the name “Bionicle” because its origins stem from a combination of “Biological” and “Chronicle”.

I think it’s more like they don’t care.

This is an incredibly wrong way to do it and absolutely terrible advice.

The point of a modding tool is that it keeps your actual game directory clean, and that mods don’t end up physically overwriting either the game’s files or each other’s files.

As a cell stage game Thrive is pretty good. As a realistic successor to SPORE it’s terrible; more than a decade and they’ve never managed to get anywhere beyond the cell stage.

The cell stage is getting better with each update, sure, but it seems like they haven’t even touched any other elements of their game.

Been a long time since I played it myself, but it was my first introduction to space sims.

Development of the game picked up again just a year or so ago, after a long time of hiatus.

Yeah, the game looked nice over 15 years ago, but the graphics haven’t updated at all, so the visuals are incredibly dated. Gameplay is still quite solid, though, and the background simulation aspect of the game is still on-par with Elite Dangerous, so I’d say it’s a pretty good choice if someone is looking for a FOSS space sim.

The space sim lidt seems to be missing Vega Strike.

I always torrent large FOSS projects where possible. It’s faster and doesn’t tax the servers of the project.

That’s not piracy, though, so I’m not sure why it’s being talked about here…

Yeah, but I’ve also met several (Americans, usually) who had takes like these and… Uh… Unfortunately meant it.

Please be sarcasm… Please be sarcasm… Oh I pray to the dark void of the universe that this is sarcasm.

Theory requires a working model. What you got can’t even be considered a hypothesis.

Oh, I never read nfo files, so I never knew. ^^;

What was it the rules of the internet again?

TITS or GTFO.

There’s also Girl = Guy In Real Life.

Valve is one of the few companies I would someone trust with this promise… So long as the current people in charge are still in charge.

Whoever takes over might have very different ideas.

This was already proven at the height of Netflix, before streaming service hell.

I’ll keep that in mind.

I’m not sure if Danish libraries do E-Books. I could check after work, though. But the fun part is I already have a library card; the health insurance card all Danish citizens get counts kinda like an everything card, including lending books. ^^

Anyway, I got some authors on my radar already. Like for instance I have only read a fraction of what Terry Prachet wrote, and I never finished the Hitchhiker’s trilogy.

Right… Yeah, I would like to get rid of the ads. It sounds absurd that I pay for the device but then have to pay again to get rid of ads.

Ah, so a kindle needs to be jailbroken/rooted for sideloading books.

Also, this is the third mention of turning on airplane mode. Is this to stop Amazon from doing something to the Kindle?

Oh I’ve been using Stremio for a while. But I’ll poke the Web about Popcorn when I’m home.

Popcorn Time is still alive!?

I remember using it a lot but that was years ago. Overnight it got driven into the ground by copyright. I never heard it made a comeback.
