That sucks. Was she not liable for your healthcare if she was at fault? (I'm European, no idea how you guys do it.)

They don't. Buy on gog.

like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

Literally anything besides not getting that game?

Same here, but I did occasionally get a similar full screen reminding me of that fact and urging me to buy a new PC. I installed Mint instead.

People keep saying "Linux is user friendly enough these days for even non techy people" and I'm sorry but it's totally Not.

I guess people who say that think of the average non techy user as someone like me: I don't really know how this works under the hood, but I do troubleshoot my own stuff, am willing and able to search for help and apply advice on my own, try different things, and hopefully realize when that advice starts to sound fishy.

The thing is, that's not the average non-techy user. That's already "dabbling in tech".

The average non techy user is Homer going "oh, a talking moose on the Internet wants my credit card number? Sounds fair."

The same is true for windows though. I have to help my dad with some minor thing at least once a month.

Often, they've forgotten the fucking password, if you've made it so they don't have to put a password in when they log in

The second my father asks me about this is when I revoke his computer privileges.

Noch nicht, aber vielleicht bald.

Den kennt er. Und er weiß, auf welcher Seite er steht.

So we are giving participation awards?

Huh?

Are you blaming them for not preserving things more than actual physical objects that you bought are preserved in your house? The whole root of the matter was people complaining about companies obsoleting or taking away games they paid for. What GOG is doing counters just that. It is now once again in your hands and your hands only to preserve and maintain your property, and if the data gets corrupted, you only have time, physics and yourself to blame.

I couldn't care less about anybody creating some kind of eternal video game archive for archaeologists of the post apocalyptic world to find. I care about if I will still be able to play the games I paid money for in 30 years, provided I keep the data and hardware. How would that last part be the store's responsibility?

Wenn du ihn schmutzig nicht wegwerfen darfst?

Abgesehen davon sind es Altkleider. Müll ist es erst nach dem Versenken in der Tonne.
