If you start with the second one you won’t know what’s going on and feel like you’ve missed a bunch of important story.

This is how it felt after playing the first one as well. Half Life 2 is almost an unrelated game. The plots of the two barely line up.

You should check out the BBC guidelines for subtitling. They are really good and include preserving the intent of the program, avoiding ambiguity, and not spoiling jokes with bad timing.

I thought it was a trick by sign writers who charge by the letter.

Because touch screens are cheap and put the onus of design onto the programmers of apps.

The Red Dwarf bit on this is great

Except they kill humans all the time.

I think it’s just easier to accept that there is an unexplained reason why humans can generate some kind of power that’s useful to the machines for something at some point between the winning of the war at the point of the movies.

Just ignore the fourth movie.

Was it? You were in an open environment and you could do the opponents in mostly any order.

Scratch that. I guess I’m think of post game when you can replay the battles.

I’ve never heard an ad mid-sentence. Surely that’s an error on the podcasters side. Don’t they have to mark the timecodes for ad placements?

New tab tools.

You can even do a trick to make it your home tab

I do mine from home assistant. I can leave location services, Bluetooth, and wifi, all on without worrying about battery life for the whole day.

Ok. I did not see what you meant.

I have a home zone that triggers things. I don’t think location services uses enough battery for me to worry about

Cell towers are not wifi, but I think I understand what you mean.

I plan to live forever or die trying

I get it.

The actual offer is: “Starlink users will get free internet” but it’s been put forward as: “everyone gets free Starlink”

It’s the equivalent of corporations changing their Facebook profile picture to a rainbow. It basically costs then nothing, especially if affected areas have no electricity.

You agree to the licence terms when you purchase the software. If you disagree, don’t buy it.

Do you have a link to a track ball mouse as an example of what you mean? What do you think are the pros and cons of using one?

What is this based on? It sounds like something that would be against even the most basic licence terms.

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I’m asking about whether the concept of “you are allowed to play pirated games if you own a physical copy of it” is based on any legal truth.

I’m aware that the emulators are largely completely legal as long as they don’t package console bios’ with it. That’s why you have to go find a pirate bios to make your emulator run

Do you have anything to back that up? Or is it just “trust me bro” that kind of proves my point?

Did that claim have any actual grounding in reality? Or is it just an urban legend that keeps persisting?
