I see.

I was just confused because AI is a fuzzy umbrella term.

I hate chatbot LLMs, but I don’t mind stuff like chess bots and videogame NPCs.

Are you ok with a chess bot cuz that’s technically AI?

I’m not German and I didn’t get the twisted cross email.

They no longer use it.

I open it right now and all I see is flashy text with game cover art in the offers/deals pages.

DRM-free is a big plus.

Didn’t get one.

Talking about GOG the DRM-free digital PC game store.

GOG is a good company we all pay for.

Fart Night doesn’t have lootboxes or random MTX.

You pay for a skin, you get it.

Not defending but there’s 2 things:

1. Vibecoding, IMO, is ok (with a few rules) as long as it’s merely technical and it doesn’t touch the art direction (and also human coders review/check the LLM-assisted code for any mistakes or problems)
2. Fart Night is a gratis game and it wants to make money somehow, so having microtransactions isn’t something to be surprised by.

Edit: you can dislike/downvote me if you want. It’s all opinions, not facts.

Fart Night will come to Linux+GNU

It’s the other way around with my Mum.

“German” chocolate cakes aren’r actually German.

I think they mean modern console emu.

That’s why they ignored Dolphin emu but took down Yuzu, for example.

I’m not defending them but it makes sense for companies to use open source stuff.

Amazon’s servers are ran almost entirely on Linux.

In a nutshell: the word stealing is a vague umbrella term.

Would you classify making clones/copies out of a thing and sharing them stealing?

Thank God that GOG exists

Steal is like taking away a cupcake from your bakery.

Piracy is like analyzing the cupcake and thus revealing its recipe and I share it to everyone. (You wouldn’t lose your baked cupcakes but everyone makes clones out of them from the recipe.)

Especially Indie games, DRM-free games (GOG) and physical books.

Those are the people who deserve support

I never bought and never will eBooks

Only physical copies and piracy (so I can actually own my stuff)

Steam has DRM. I wonder why pirates like it instead of something GOG and itch.io
