What if the only way to turn them is a repeat of 1939-1945?

Back in my teens, a Seventh Day Adventist said that to me. I got the better deal in life.

“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.

That word is “Nazi.” Nobody cares about their motives anymore.

They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?”

Don’t use your hero car for that. Use one of your lookalike spares.

Another vote for Lutris here. For many years, my main game was WoW, and it runs fine there. Now my main game is GW2, which also runs fine under Lutris.

Not far behind you. I learned BASIC on an original Commodore PET.
