@swiley Och, I like Steam. I have no issues with it. :) Besides, this isn't Steam's fault. This is solely that game dev's fault.

@s8n The dev is called Pera Games, not really well known to me but there you go.

You can read up all the juicy details in the forum and reviews here:
store.steampowered.com/app/402

Wow, that's a new one. Bought a game from a trustworthy bundle site years ago, and now it got its key revoked because the dev has some issues with the publisher or some such? Like, what? What's that got to do with us, the players?

I'm now seeing a big review-bombing unfold on the store page of that game. Very curious how that's going to get resolved but I can say the reputation of that dev is utter shit right now. Like, yeah, that was a great idea to revoke keys of probably tens of thousands of players after 3 years. /s

why did nobody tell me that a fucking bartender in west virginia declared himself mayor he could lobby for a bridge to be built (because, like, kids were dropping out of school and all the industry in the area was closing because you couldn't get there, and ... after some of the local owning class decided that only the company got to use their service road)

and he reached out to various parts of the local government, and he got stonewalled, so he reached out to the foreign aid office of the fuckin' SOVIET UNION

and the soviets sent over a goddamn journalist to write about the situation, and the state pretty much immediately went "umm yeah we'll build the bridge" so that this village didn't have to get foreign aid from the Soviets

it's Vulcan, WV; look it up

@nfd Hilarious and sad. ;) And after all that, it's still a damn one-lane bridge. Well, it's better than nothing I suppose! It's probably not that busy anyway, heh. But jeez, talk about neglect.

@orekix Yeah, haven't really found anything better yet.

totally serious tinfoil territory 

@bonifartius Pretty much all our job laptops/computers have 8GB ram now. Until still fairly recently we had to make do with 2GB. I even had to whine to our IT dept to upgrade my RAM already and they upgraded it to a whopping 4GB :P But all the 2018+ computers now have 8GB, which is fine for normal office work, yay. :P

Of course, I have a special laptop (since I don't do standard office work) and made sure it's got a nice 16GB. ;)

@fribbledom Tough one, but Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis might be pretty much up there. If for more replayability, I enjoyed the original ADOM.

@freemo I know a few people who deserve a post-birth abortion. I guess I'm in!

@zorinlynx Complete with mismatched front colors too! If only those players would come with 'yellowed beige' fronts!

I was so glad when we could switch to the color black. :D

@a1batross That is not a motherboard with thermal paste. That's thermal paste with a motherboard!
