How is this the first time I’m hearing about a lineage TV OS?!

Exactly. This isn’t explicitly piracy. Just because it can be used as such, doesn’t mean it perpetrates piracy. Some prefer to have a backup for their game installers. That’s all this is.

Have you ever purchased a game from GoG? If so, chances are it comes DRM-free in which case you could legally keep a copy in your “Game Vault.”

This allows you to have your own local copy to download and install. No GoG launcher required.

Phind.com is a great alternative that provides sources.

I always love Drumeo’s “Drummer plays song they’ve only heard once” videos.

Just a PSA, never ever EVER request deletion of an Oracle free tier if there is any possibility you might want one in the future.

You can delete/remove instances or whatever as you desire, but you won’t be able to get a second free tier account even if the first is completely deleted.

Alright fine… So what are the best forks that are the most compatible with existing Firefox add-ons?

Edit: It’s looking like Waterfox might be best for my needs, but open to other recommendations or tips.

NASA vs NSA makes this more apparent too. For example:

A NASA investigation

vs

An NSA investigation

I barely understood this but I’ve also tried to explain this very thing. I believe it was actually on a post about the pronunciation of ‘Data’ because I felt there were differences to each but could not explain why for the life of me.

I mean, why not self host an instance of git like forgejo?

I loved the Hitman games when I was younger, but somewhere around Hitman Absolution, I just lost interest because of this. They renamed this, resold that, combined this with that.

Last time I downloaded something, it was to try it in VR when it said there was a VR patch. I couldn’t do anything. I found out later, it’s only for PSVR 1 and only on PS4 with the camera and a dual shock 4 controller that has the light bar for tracking. Literally nothing explained that anywhere.

It’s an absolute mess and a shame.

Yep, I remember when they stopped calling them candy cigarettes and just changed them to the candy sticks. They also had candy cigars, but I don’t remember trying those myself.

No worries. Knowing that it virtually never goes on sale is still useful information and helpful in my decision making. Thanks!

That’s fair, though if it never goes on sale, then there’s no rush either. I’ll get my fill of Satisfactory first and then probably reconsider it then.

Definitely. I got back into it recently too, but when I first found it, I lost many, many hours to it.

Oh I don’t doubt that I’d enjoy it, I just rarely pay full price for games anymore. It gives me StarCraft vibes.

Perhaps when I’ve tired myself of Satisfactory, I’ll pick it up, if it still hasn’t gone on sale by then.

In the meantime though, I also have Mindustry.

I’ve been watching for a sale, if that ever happens. I just picked up Satisfactory on sale and had a similar conversation with a friend. I said I’m definitely the target demographic for it and Factorio is the other on radar.

I use Alpine. It’s enough for what I need and it doesn’t take up 30G like my last Ubuntu subsystem.

I’ve also heard it referred to as cross-play, though without the contact of cosplay, can be somewhat confusing.

Just curious, how do you host it? Do you have it containerized or no?
