Glitchy things and video games. What even is anything anymore?

Direct message

Steam: buy, download, and updates for me. Easier and more convenient than even piracy by design.

Website: doesn’t integrate with my package manager, doesn’t offer updates, doesn’t provide me any features.

Also from their own website in a Q&A format:

But I want to play it on my heavy computer that’s strapped to my face and sprays pixels into my eyeballs. Don’t see your favorite platform listed? Don’t worry. Throw your other platforms in the trash, and get it from one of the above!

“We want to provide Linux support, so we’re exclusive though the marketplace that hates Linux support.”

Coooooool…

I appreciate your honest response but, I haven’t heard those intentions from anyone claiming to be conservative until just now.

I think it’s fine to celebrate traditions, even fine to share them when asked, or offer to share them with people you know. My family makes these really specific pancakes for holidays, I love making those, great tradition. Some families deny their children basic healthcare because, traditionally their faith tells them to and that’s child abuse, awful tradition. I get what you mean but it’s a pretty shaky argument. As for waiting and reacting, how much longer do we need to wait to react to things like climate change, the homelessness epidemic, the opioid crisis, childhood cancer? If any of your traditions are against solving those problems, I’m sorry but I’m against those traditions and they aren’t compatible with modern society.

I’m curious, why not find a new title for your political beliefs, and shame modern conservatives who line their pockets with money from big corporations? Sounds like the conservative badge isn’t quite reflecting what you’d like it to anymore.

Then maybe it’s time to start considering if conservative values have a place in our world? What does being conservative entail other than limiting the freedoms of other humans and refusing to spend money on anything but the military? Please give me a legitimate reason why we need to resist progress?

I had to bail from Fedora when they pulled the video codecs from RPM. It may be fixed, but the threat of pulling a tool from the repository still lingers in my mind.

One of the most informative channels I’ve ever watched. I recommend his dishwasher video, because everybody is doing it wrong.
