@beardalaxy @Mr_NutterButter Yeah, but with slaves, you own them and their entire bloodline, so it's potentially an X-in-1 package.

@beardalaxy @veru @Mr_NutterButter It's forced because many of those fans are Toby's friends from the Starmen forum. I think he also tried to get them to rig a Best Game of 2015 poll.

I'd probably have a little respect for the game if it was some obscure freeware or shareware indie game from 2008 or something.

@veru @Mr_NutterButter It's very Earthbound/Mother inspired but the unique combat system is what sets it apart. It also has influences from Persona and Live-a-Live, but I never played those games, so I can't tell you how they connect.

@wowaname @mr_penguin To be fair, they did try to get Linux users to buy their computers by offering Dell computers with Linux preinstalled, so something as trivial as this might have pissed them off.

@codrus Yea, I'd avoid Dell, HP, Lenovo, Toshiba, Apple, and at least Sony. I realize like two of these companies don't even sell computers at this point, but... aww got to keep boycotting evil. Basically all these companies have instituted DRM on wifi card slots and/or designed their systems such that you can't utilize standard components. The goals were pretty apparent in that they are or were trying to force people to buy replacement parts from them. They were trying to copy the 1980s US car company model. Produce crap, then charge to repair it (this is where the industry made its money until people caught on and started buying foreign based manufactured cars that didn't suck), or at least force everyone into their ecosystem to whatever extent they could (Apple in particular, but it's definitely not exclusive, I mean, Dell also did it back in the 1990s with proprietary power supplies and crap like that). Actually I was looking at servers the other day and realizing other companies like Super Micro also pulling shit like this. Though they do have some standardized motherboards (ATX, EATX, etc) and I probably can't be 100% certain the reason for it. There might in this particular instance be some technical benefit/reason for why they do it. I doubt it, but... maybe.

Nearly half of U.S. states have some sort of online age restrictions in place already, and the Supreme Court recently paved the way for even more age blocks on online sexual content.

If only everything wasn't a fucking political statement then people wouldn't bitch about the technology a person or company chooses to use. But no. If you use crypto, then that means that you are pandering to the evil ancaps or the dissident right, and you are a climate denier.
