I've gotten into Wasteland 2 recently, I love Bryan Fargo and Chris Avellone's work, and so far it's holding up. I'm coming off of a Shadowrun: Dragonfall playthrough, so apparently I'm in a CRPG mood at the moment.

It's not even a slap on the wrist, it's just saying "don't do this anymore", but they freakin will man

As of June 2022, more than 500 hours of video were uploaded to YouTube every minute. If that video is stored at 6Mb/s, a conservative estimate, that equates to about 10TB a minute. Obviously you wouldn't want everything, but it's still way more than the peertube network could handle in it's current form I'm sure. I cannot fathom the amount of data that Big Datatm handles, the fact that most of the services are free makes me highly suspicious.

I didn't down vote, but I'd assume that people on lemmy skew towards a dislike of centralised corporate structures, especially when they're pushing a subscription service in place of game ownership, and so they're not so much disagreeing with you as they are simply upset by what you're saying. Of course, I may be wrong on that. Personally I think it could go either way, I think their aquisitions have not yielded the return that they may have hoped for, and I really hope that gamepass fails, but it doesn't seem like it will. Que sera sera I suppose.

The Linux way, as it was written.

I'd only recommend Duolingo to dip a toe in. If after awhile you're wanting a bit more, I've had a good experience with Deutsch Welle's german course - https://learngerman.dw.com/en/learn-german/s-9528

Also Babel is excellent but pricey.

The irony of monopoly becoming a megolithic franchise

Definitely a non-zero chance, at the very least

Great game, and Chipzel did such a good job on the soundtrack

Bit of a waste if it was a perfectly good machine?
