I happily pay for software. ONCE. I have no idea if this software will be regularly updated and if there will be new features. How do we know the developer won’t abandon the project? And it’s a lone developer, apparently. Ever heard of the bus factor? Give me a license that enables me to use the product in its current form indefinitely, and I might consider buying it. But a subscription? No thanks. Who does this guy think he is, frickin Adobe?
I prefer watching three cushion carom. It’s the only game where I can’t usually guess the player’s plans before they play a shot.
Good software, but subscription plans are a deal breaker for me.
Ich nehme das Bestreben BS. Es basiert auf Bogen Linux, übrigens.
I wouldn’t disagree that Doom is a very good choice here too. The fact that it has become a tradition and challenge to try to run Doom on all kinds of hardware alone proves how influential Doom is. However, I wouldn’t say Dungeon Master has aged more poorly than Doom. Both games are really fun today I think. Dungeon Master is just way more niche, it’s older, it had fewer players and the franchise has died a long time ago, while Doom is going strong. It’s a tough choice and I admit I’m a bit biased here anyway - Dungeon Master was my first true love when it comes to video games.
I bet noone’s gonna mention the great grandfathers of modern RPGs. Bard’s Tale, Ultima, Dungeon Master… all modern games are standing on the shoulders of giants.
Yes, killing Nazis is fun. But even as an antifascist, left leaning German, I’d like to remind people of the fact that fighting in WWII was mandatory for German men. Again, yes, the vast majority of German soldiers were indeed Nazis and they willingly fought for Hitler, they didn’t need to be forced at all. Fuck these people. However, there are other examples: My great grand dad was member of the SPD when the Nazis came to power, he was interned in Dachau for a short time in 1933, and forced to join the Wehrmacht. He fell somewhere in Russia in 1942. Not defending Nazis here, just saying. A substantial number of Germans were forced to fight against their will, not wanting to fight was defeatism according to the Nazis, and defeatism was usually punished by execution. Now have fun killing Nazis, by all means. Just be aware of this historical fact while doing so. Thank you.

And his modern followers seem to be gay. After all, they’re on their knees begging for a man to come for the second time.
When I have to see news like this on my computer screen, I just sit here shaking my fist.
Absolutely agree. Bike infrastructure in Germany, especially in German cities is dismal. I’ve been to Talinn, Estonia and saw how things could and should be done, and in comparison, Germany sucks. Well, and if you’re using a bike for your daily commute, you’ll also be familiar with the mindset of car drivers. You’ll be overtaken far too close and yelled at every day.
In Germany, we have the wonderful Radwegebenutzungspflicht (obligation to use cycle paths). Unfortunately most drivers don’t realize this only applies to about 10% of Germany’s cycle paths, which are marked by a blue sign. They think the obligation applies to all cycle paths, and so they keep giving cyclists shit.
Rechte Wähler haben sehr oft wenig Verständnis und Einsicht in die tieferen Zusammenhänge. Bestes Beispiel geben uns die MAGAs - die Mehrheit von denen hat nicht einmal verstanden, dass Einfuhrzölle von den Importeuren im eigenen Land bezahlt und an die Bevölkerung weitergegeben werden. Oder der Irrglaube, dass die Preise wieder sinken könnten, ohne dass das die Wirtschaft torpediert - an der Tankstelle oder für Eier oder weiß der Kuckuck was. Jeder mit nur ein bisschen Grundverständnis weiß, dass eine Deflation sofort zu Umsatzeinbruch führt, weil alle denken “wenn ich erst morgen kaufe, wird’s noch billiger”. Aber erklär das mal einem semigebildeten Ausländerfeind, der sieht nur, was er sehen will und versteht nicht, was er verstehen sollte.
Du warst augenscheinlich noch nie bei Schneider’s am Kotti.
Christianity as a whole is pretty gay. I mean come on… they’re the ones on their knees hoping for a man to come for a second time.
As a German citizen born in Berlin to parents who were both babies in 1945, I would like to say:
I still use the song “Operator Plays a Little Ping Pong” from the Neverhood OST as my ringtone. Never fails to amuse.
Meanwhile, the 1.5m Germans…
Absolutely… no measurement that doesn’t calculate an index on a per capita basis can be taken seriously. Meanwhile, noone mentions that the USA has the highest incarceration rate per capita in the so-called free world, and they call themselves “Land of the Free”. The constant propaganda has completely disconnected Americans from reality.
