Wasn’t the entire point of not using “Windows 9” branding and instead going straight to “Windows 10” from 8 that they didn’t want the last version of Windows to be 9, that they preferred a nice round number.

Isn’t there a Black Mirror episode of this

Can I play devil’s advocate a little bit here, because I was really unaware that this ever worked for anything except indie artists on Bandcamp. So Bandcamp works for them or for discovering new music obviously.

I didn’t know artists ever sold digital music on their websites, but that does make sense, so I checked - if I google Taylor Swift and go to her website, there it is, digital music purchase. Great.

I went to U2’s website, and the only music I can buy there is vinyl. I don’t want vinyl, I want digital. You can buy merch, but I’m after music, not merch. Looking further, there’s all sorts of galleries and information about each album and song, but you still can’t buy the music.

Other mainstream artists I googled didn’t even go that far. Googling them brought up a wikipedia link, social media links, tours. All stuff I don’t want. Now your list has “contact artist via social media” - setting aside the fact that it’s unlikely a popular mainstream artist will even reply to anyone at all about anything, this is a real point of friction. I don’t want to have to contact an artist to find out some alternative way to get their music. If I’m buying something online, there needs to be some way to buy it online and ready to go. If we have to wait a couple of days or weeks for a reply that may or may not come - the process failed.

If I had to guess, they would probably say something like “it’s on spotify”.

So yes it probably is a supplier problem, but it seems to me that this is happening for the majority of popular artists if a majority of music people like is mainstream. I assume if you like the majority of indie music then that’s probably not the case.

But couldn’t you go to where the alternative dungeon’s keys are, get those and come back to get the earlier dungeon’s item that way?

I can’t see how you can softlock?

why would you pick Zelda 1 over Zelda 2 if you think 2 is more fun

It’s a full remake, not like a port or a rom

Boomer’s Adventure in ASMIK World

Gameplay

Review & Explanation

I never figured out why they gave the world such a weird name, or didn’t just call it Boomer’s Adventure

Is paint 3d actually any good?

I had such a hard time using it for basic things that I’d look for wherever they’d hidden away traditional paint instead.

Wanting good usability isn’t petty

From taskbar settings, they removed “Never” combine taskbar buttons, and forced it to always combine taskbar buttons.

Like if you prefer having 3 open folders showing as 3 buttons, too bad, you can’t do that in W11 without a third party patcher.

Yeah I don’t get it. Did microsoft say they would stop forcing edge on users?

OK which distro should we use

Do yourself a favour and get Bitwarden or similar. Browser password managers are way too vulnerable.

Er, what’s a modern anti chat game

I love SNW and greatly dislike Lower Decks, so it was pretty enjoyable for me when the crossover episode happened and the crew of the SNW all looked at the Lower Decks crew with expressions on their faces in the same way I thought of them, throughout the entire episode

I didn’t follow TOS and can’t follow what’s going on with the Gorn in SNW.

It seems really strange because every SNW episode has been episodic and they’ve been such great episodes, that now they’ve gone back between episode 1 and episode 10 with this Gorn arc, it’s souring the show for me.

Like maybe if this made more sense to me, fine, but can we go back to Spock and Chapel and T’Pring all dealing with their we-can’t-do-this relationship and Erica wanting to get out of the pilot’s seat for a while, and La’an dealing with a past and a relationship she’s forbidden to talk about, and M’Benga trying to deal with a dark past, and Uhura learning she’s more than she thinks she is… all that great stuff one episode at a time and then why not an episode perfectly mixed in with a musical as the penultimate episode to the season finale.

Oh, and by the way the Gorn are back so I guess there’s a new big uninteresting threat that Pike and the crew have to deal with to finish things off… OK. But why?

When does Chrono Trigger really start to get good? I’ve tried to play it a few times but it never fully holds me.

So that Sisko could do a song with him as a little icing on the DS9 cake

This broad ain’t playin’ with a full deck!
