Doesn’t support SteamOS

Hmm…

Because buyers of premium devices famously have time to screw around with installers and OSes that aren’t their first choice…

I assume the logic is “every game runs on Windows”, but I feel like they understimated how sticky SteamOS is for folks who have tried it.

I experience so much more playing, and less fucking around, on my SteamDeck, than I did on my Windows gaming PC.

What language is the CLI written in?

Yes, running a CLI from inside a container can be a pain, but it’s not a big deal for the people asking.

I would just provide a trivial Dockerfile and see if anyone uses it.

You’re allowed to need some space. You may feel better if you say so, rather than ghosting.

Something like:

“Sorry I’ve been ignoring our friendship, I’ve needed some space. I want to still be your friend, long term, in honor of what we’ve shared. I might still be quiet for awhile, but I’m okay and I appreciate you.”

Friendships can go quiet for years and still be friendships, if both people don’t mind.

So… the people running this casino - consider you a sucker who they wish to rip off in every way possible.

That really is pretty infuriating.

Sorry, I can’t help. I think the news here is that you found a casino, for awhile, that seemed to run in any other way.

I imagine that casino management doesn’t usually attract people who want to give others a fair deal.

This seems like a job for a WordPress blog or GitHub pages.

I’ll be happy to be your evil grand vizier, if you need one.

I’ll be super chill to hang out with in my palace, while my Grand Vizier takes care of day to day business.

Crisis on Two Earths has, indeed, been done.

It would have been great to call it “Crisis on a Couple Earth’s”.

I’ve always assumed that womp rats, being roughly 2 meters long, were intended as a kind of R.O.U.S. (Rodents of Unusual Size) and are presumably equally aggressive and dangerous.

I realize it’s a stretch, but it’s been stuck in my head canon since I first saw Star Wars.

Yes. To be fair, free is too high of a price to add an EA game to my Steam collection, to the distaste goes in both directions in some cases.

They do say that a sucker is born every minute.

(Regarding buyers treating a buyback by an owner with a history of stock price manipulation allegations as good sign for a stock.)

For me, the item from Amazon is sometimes something completely unrelated to what I ordered…

Avoiding Amazon has spoiled me, lately.

He does look like he’s going to give himself a heart attack.

Narrator: They did not.

Same.

YouTube with a custom app seems to be the best way to actually watch your own chosen subscriptions, rather than bent force fed by the Google algorithm.

I’ve heard folks talk about how to get this from regular YouTube, but it’s wild to me that that put up with having to go to all the trouble with the official app.

Nebula is great.

It’s pretty funny to watch a quick “check out our extended content on Nebula” video exit, then just immediately watch the extended content roll along with a thank you message. (Many creators simply add the Nebula exclusive bits directly to the end of the video, on Nebula.)

It makes me feel like a fancy rich person.

Nebula is terrific!

It does take some time to find everything. It’s not (much of) an algorithm, so I just had to explore and start subscribing to things.
