Amended title: Rental giant to take a huge step back in climate change fight and generate more GHG to protect their bottom line.

In a capitalistic world where your right to stay alive is determined by the money you make, replacing himan jobs by machine ones is a real problem.

If what was happening was “ok so the machines are gonna do that so you’re gonna have a lot more free time but you still get your wages”, I for one would be happy.

But what’s happening is more along the lines of “well I hope you didn’t just get a mortgage because here’s the door hahaha don’t be sad think lf the extra money the shareholders are going to make” and it’s a real problem.

Just because it’s logical that shitty bosses take shitty decisions which impact negatively other person’s lives doesn’t mean we can’t be upset and vocal about it.

meatspace name I laughed reading this, it has a strong SMBC vibe :)

Thanks for this educational post, TIL I learned something interesting (and sad/infuriating).

This was very informative, thanks !

I never wondered about the conditions of videogames workers, but I’m really happy that they get better thanks to this movement !

Yeah, I’ve got the same thing with playing previous games in the series. This summer I’ve tried playing BG1 and then BG2 prior to BG3’s release - and I did not go very far (did not like the UI).

Cryptpad is great but I don’t think it entirely fits OP’s requirements :

• it’s really private
• it’s in the cloud, so no self hosting is necessary
• they have a spreadsheet and a form app

However, last I checked, there was no way to automatically get the form answers in an already existing spreadsheet.

My dislike for brave is mostly about its chromium base - chrome being the embrace - extend- extinguish offensive on the web from google.

Running on that VM, I really enjoyed Flight of the Amazon Queen a few years back. Warning: it’s an oldie containing lots of sexist moments - I’m not sure I would enjoy it as much today.

I second that, been using mailbox for the past 6 months and it works like a charm. You also have a todo tool on mailbox that I think synchronizes via Caldav too, but I don’t use it so I don’t know how it compares to todo.txt

Proton has a nice UI and works well (I’ve used it for two years before moving to mailbox.org) but as of 6 months back, I was unable to make it work outside their walled garden. You can subscribe to proton calendar with any other calendar app, so you can read your calendar via caldav, but I found no way to edit it other than using their app.

I would recommand Proton for a lot of reasons, but if having a caldav calendar matrers to you I don’t think Proton is a good option.

Well, I find that really sad.

Whatever mistake they make, I think people living with constant fear of the threat posed by a totalitarian regime known for its violence against its own people deserve our sympathy.

Thanks ! That’s one step I still have to take - dive into IRC and its ecosystem(s).

Tha’ts actually what I do. But there are some games I’m not sure I’ll enjoy and they don’t have a free demo to test, so I’m trying them on the seas. Also, 10+ yo games that are still 15,20, sometimes 30€ are not going to get my money, even when much cheaper and on sale, because come on.

Thanks for your reply and insight.

My Steam-avoidance/aversion is not about compatibility but more about DRM/vendor lock-in. When I buy games, I usually by them at GOG or any other “you own the game you bought” provider.

Also, when it’s about inde games, I have not problem buying them - I easily support projects this way or via crowdfunding. The games I’m interest in Jolly Rogering, as you put it, are bigger games - I want to play them a bit before spending 70€ for the whole thing + expansions package.

Thank you, I’ll check them out.

Thank you, I’ll check them out.

Thank you for the resouce, I will have a look !

I agree with you on the cause, and that there are few and outdated versions on generalist torrent sites.
