Ugh, no. The internet archive doesn’t care about consent enough as it is. Can you imagine how much harder it would be to get stuff taken down on a distributed network when it leads to harrassment etc?

Let’s see if poland has the confidence and werewithall to arrest him and stick to their legal code.

This made us laugh, thanks.

Ew, calling? No thanks.

Someone didn’t grow up with MSN and other messengers, and ‘away’ statuses.

What about if you’re kind, but don’t have the self confidence to think it’s not you? What then?

Should have had better opsec. Also to have watched hackers: “Never hack from home”

Yes, I understand that. But not everybody can talk all the time like that, some people can only really have enough energy for social media, not talking one-to-one, I know a few.

Woah, I’m not talking about “seeking validation from strangers”. I’m talking about building actual community online, and that being all some people have due to either homeboundness, or other reasons where online is the only community they can know, I’m saying such a law would genuinely put those people in jeopardy, no matter what age they are.

Yeah, it’s sad that they don’t, gog really needs to get on it imo. Though have you tried running galaxy through proton?

I want that too, heck even Epic could easily make their games native to linux with a single button press but they don’t want to.

I have, sadly. On steam once the native linux version of a game wouldn’t run but the windows one would through proton.

However, yeah I agree, they could so I don’t know why they don’t.

Ah, okay, thanks for the correction!

That’s somewhat depressing if so as I’ve run into so many assholes here. Still, interesting to know.

There are people who literally cannot leave the house and their community is literally on social media. Are you saying their mental health would not decline if they were unable to reach their community due to some asinine law like this?

We aren’t sure how this rebutts what we said. Commercial social media seems to us to be the problem for the most part, open source social media run by real people seems to be a lot healthier from what we have experienced.

Excessive social media usage helps no-one.

Only commercial social media.

Very good and well thought out reply! Thanks so much!

Yeah, Heroic is good but sadly it only supports gog and epic. Not everything is from those stores, sadly. Whereas Lutris supports a lot more sources.

Yes. However, before they started supporting and prefering linux, and working on proton then getting any game working on linux was a real mess and the average person couldn’t do it for most games.

Sadly most other games stores in the digital space like gog don’t give a shit about linux, thus there is still no galaxy on linux, nor are their preservation efforts coming to linux for a long time.

LMAO, I’m probably older than you.

What also tracks is you’re a pedantic asshole that somehow thinks that correcting random posts on a forum, and not the original author because it’s “Not my circus, not my monkey” (but it is yours to correct random internet posts, go figure) somehow makes you ‘better’ than others or others ‘better’ in some way when all it does is show how much of an asshole you are over things that ultimately do not matter and will not in any meaningful way change the world.

This isn’t a fucking spelling competition, it’s not an academic piece of work, it’s not an exam, it’s one fucking minor ‘mistake’ that, no really, doesn’t matter and is just a reference to “Comparison is the thief of joy.” Seriously, find something better to do with your obviously boundless free time, if you have so much of it you’d have the time to do this.

Instead of realising that language is about communication and as long as the original message comes across fine in non professional context then that’s all that matters, you’d rather come into some random thread so you can be a smug asshole from afar.

Now either have something meaningful to say about the actual subject or get out.
