I mean Amazon did this for their mp3s. It was literally just an id3 tag with a unique identifier. Not hard to remove but “good enough” to keep regular people from overly distributing it. You’ll never win against the real Pirate community no matter what you do, so just give people real incentive to buy and actually own.

Grimm Fandango (one of the best games ever made) along with Myst and Riven also run on Scummvm!

Redhat 5.2 on cd. I learned a lot about compiling kernels as it didn’t support scsi emulation which was required for an ide cd burner. I think I ended up on Mandrake for a while before bouncing around including LFS. Then gentoo for many many years. And I’ve come full circle and been back on fedora for about 10 years now.

I’m 100% in on the metric system, but Fahrenheit is the best way to measure weather.

0F is my freezing point 100F is my boiling point

Fuck freezing/boiling of water!

Celsius is great for science (except space science) or cooking, but weather should be based on humans.

Cdparanoia to make sure I get a good rip. Then flacenc to convert to flac. Then Picard to tag and organize it.

This is sad. I still prefer xorg over Wayland. I have so many small customizations that depend on devilspie, wnck, and other tools that don’t have a complete Wayland replacement yet.

I have a pinephone running postmarketos. It certainly isn’t a replacement for my smart phone, but I enjoy it as a device for consumption: listening to music, browsing the web, reading news through rss, playing light games, and so forth.

I really enjoy having a device that is in my control, and I look forward to the continued development of these devices.
