Even better knowing it was the third or fourth game in that series

I think it was prior to version 2, but these days it’s based on Sid - https://vanillaos.org/nerd-info

Yes, it’s called VanillaOS! https://vanillaos.org/

Agreed. Partly because the movies have actual endings…

Not to be confused with the Soulsborne edutainment game Nounfall.

Deus Ex had mirrors, dude. Duke 3D had them, even.

Aren’t the Templars still kicking about? Or is that just in the conspiracy theories?

Unfortunately they’re not 100% slavery-free as yet (it’s a big production chain, and there’s only so much one company can do) - however, they do have this Open Chain which makes the whole thing a bit more accountable. https://www.tonysopenchain.com/

I understand they made some code contributions (no sources to hand right now) and also made / sponsored the WPGraphQL and Advanced Custom Fields plugins. The first, Automattic poached the developer; the second, Automattic rebranded it and removed any mention of WPE.

Not saying that WPE is beyond reproach; just not sure it’s 100% accurate to say they didn’t contribute anything back at all

Brooklyn Nine-Nine did an entire episode lampshading this whole thing. (S06E14 for the curious)

Oh, absolutely! But I do feel you’re trading a level of convenience for the privilege (and what a privilege!) - even something as simple as pirating one movie is already a much bigger hurdle than getting a Netflix subscription, for instance. Let alone setting up a Jellyfin server, backups, getting external connections / reverse proxying going, and so on.

The convenience of having your stuff at a click of a button is just too good.

Except when you go to find your stuff, discover it’s not there, and yearn to be able to just stuff a DVD in a player.

And yet they exist for absolutely anything.

This is, unfortunately, the market. For many IPs, the only collectable that exists is the Funko Pop. So, it’s either one of those, or no memorabilia at all. (Personally, the latter is far preferable, but folks like their doodads.)

KRDC does a good job at RDP!

It’s a usability nightmare for me. I sure love it when I open a PowerShell prompt, and some random window takes focus instead for no reason. Or when I create a new folder in Explorer, and the address bar inexplicably steals focus.

And that right-click menu can take a long walk off a short pier

I’ve had luck with Krusader. Worth a try?

Aquinas spoke of that mythical city on the hill…

AMD64, innit?

It kind of does, if you count testing / sid.
