My only pre-order was C&C Remastered, in the hopes that it would encourage EA to resurrect the franchise, or at least make more remasters. It did not. The remaster is excellent though.

I’ve been saying for a bit now that Linux games should be distributed via flatpak or similar to mitigate this problem.

Wait, does C read like valley girl speech in Greek?

I had a cat that did that. It was less of a bite and more of holding me with his teeth. He was always very happy and purring when he did it. It’s definitely not universal behavior, though.

Successfully ordered! :D

Call it Fish & Chips.

It will work on Windows so long as Steam is running.

I can’t tell if the Green Jedi Master is acting badly or just struggling with bad writing. Maybe some mix of both.

A bit of both, I think. She’s also a nepo hire, being the showrunner’s wife.

Depending on context, it can be an image editor, slur, or kink term. I’d bet money on the image editor being named for the kink term and it’s very possible the original devs didn’t know it was a slur in certain regions.

Ultimately, Dooku’s status as an apprentice or not is irrelevant because Palpatine never gave a damn about the Rule of Two. Palps is the logical end result of that system - a greedy sociopath who cares only about himself and his own power with no regard to ideology or what happens when he’s gone. Palpatine had Dooku and Maul as apprentices simultaneously while mostly keeping their existences secret from each other because neither of them were intended to replace him, but to be specialized tools with different purposes. Maul was an assassin meant to kill his enemies without being traced back to him, and Dooku was there to stage false-flag attacks so he could increase his political power. Enforcing the Rule of Two on them and making them fight to be his only apprentice would have been detrimental to his personal plans, the Sith as an organization be damned. He was also totally fine with Dooku blatantly violating the Rule of Two by openly training Ventress right up until he thought Dooku and Ventress might be able to overthrow him, at which point he suddenly started enforcing it by making Dooku kill Ventress.

The Denuvo workaround only runs on Windows and creates the mother of all security holes.

As much as I like B5 and JMS, DS9 was already in preproduction with the suspicious similarities already in place when he pitched the show. Paramount asking him during the pitch if he’d be interested in making it a Trek show was almost certainly an attempt to poach him for DS9, since they saw how similar the core concepts were. Paramount actually got very hands-off with DS9, and I suspect it was to ensure they didn’t let the pitch influence the show and open them up to a lawsuit.

Also, JMS didn’t go to TNT after Paramount, he went to PTEN. PTEN was terribly run and B5 was literally their only show by the time production started on season 4, with PTEN folding during production. TNT picked up the show for season 5, then ordered a sequel show that they immediately got buyer’s remorse on and fucked with so they could cancel it within the terms of the contract.

How much do you need explained? The Star Wars part, the Babylon 5 part, or both?

Abrahamic religions typically have suicide as a sin, for example.

Or because of that recent ruling that you can’t copyright AI generated images. If Disney can’t copyright the videos Sora produces, then it’s useless to them.

Fun fact: if true AGI were a thing, those AI programs would be people and not paying them for their work would be slavery.

iOS is Apple’s operating system for phones and tablets, MacOS is Apple’s OS for desktops and laptops.

Remember, the only Sith who is also a human supremacist was from Naboo.

But does Audacious whip the llama’s ass?
