@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.

>You're literally using dozens if not hundreds or proprietary routers and hardware to get and receive messages on the fediverse instance you use.
Stallman has openly said that networked services don't count as software and that nonfree software on routers, servers, and switches only affects the people running said devices.
