Piracy isn’t an issue at all, because I don’t recognize or consider either of those concepts.

Because intellectual property is a ridiculous capitalist notion. You can’t own intellect.

Not unless you support slavery, which I am sure you don’t.

Was it straightforward? What kind of question is that? You click the install button in Steam to set it up. Then you click play when it’s done.

The people this sort of device is targeted to either already know how to do something like this, or they’re the sort of people who would be eager to follow one of the many guides online. The prepper community is also a DIY community, by nature.

That’s a shockingly bad price, considering the storage. You could put this together yourself for less than half that price. Maybe even a quarter of the price, if you grab used stuff from ebay.

A cheap solar panel can be gotten off Amazon or your local tech store if you have one for around $50. More than enough to power something like this, I would imagine.

At least while it’s sunny out.

I’m reminded of the people who misidentify poisonous mushrooms each year and die from it.

You live in a country filled with people who voted Trump into power. You’re surrounded by assholes, and if you don’t think so then you’re either an asshole with them, or a blissful idiot. I’ll leave it to you to decide which.

Shit, I didn’t just pirate all the movies and TV shows I consume, but I also stole the server that hosts my Servarr stack that I download them onto from my last corporate job.

Yo ho ho, mateys, and a bottle of VPNs!

I’m also an American, and this is 100% accurate. My countrymen are assholes, and the only thing they’ve ever cared about are problems that directly affect them.

I honestly can’t tell if you’re being stupid because you don’t want to admit you were wrong, or if you really are an idiot who can’t read.

I feel like it’s the latter.

Whatever the repair was, the battery doesn’t need drained for it anyway. You disconnect the battery when upgrading or repairing the Deck. Even a dead battery has some charge.

That’s not how the world works, Karen.

I don’t think there’s many companies that I’ve heard of that are willing to repair or replace something that far out of warranty.

That’s not what they said tho, is it? That’s what you said. They didn’t mention ReShade at all.

I got it, and despite the performance issues everyone is talking about, the game is a wonderful trip down nostalgia lane. And unlike the original, they fixed a lot of the annoyances like the clunky UI.

As much as I like Skyrim, I don’t think there’s a general consensus that the earlier games were better written.

Personally, until I played Phantom Liberty, the Shivering Isles was the best expansion I had ever played for any game. I’ll leave it to you to discover, if you get the game, but allow me to say it is delightful and different and a ton of fun.

It’s ironic that you’re looking at this from the same angle that you accuse Bethesda of. The Skyblivion team didn’t start this “labor of love”, as you correctly put it, to earn money. Yet all you can think about is how much money you think they’re missing out on. It really shows what your values in life are.

If you’re happy with it, then don’t switch. There’s nothing you’re doing that Mint doesn’t do well, so there’s no point switching to something else that you might not like when you already enjoy what you have.

It’s not great. I haven’t run into a single bug yet. How is this even a Bethesda game?

Literally unplayable!
