kbal, to piracy in How to install Skyrim

I've had issues running stuff even on debian. Too often the people packaging things just assume you're using Windows to run your Windows executables like some kind of noob.

I have a dim memory of hearing somewhere that you need to run SkyrimSELauncher.exe first at least once to create .ini files and such.

I was going to suggest you just spend the $6 or whatever to buy the game on Steam, but apparently they're asking $53 for it now. What the fuck Bethesda. Maybe they had to raise the price to stop it selling more than Starfield. Anyway, good luck.

So who exactly does own OpenSubtitles Group Limited, and what are their motivations? If you're claiming to know, I assume you must be some kind of insider? Because they don't seem to be all that open about it. Otherwise we can only judge by their actions.

But it’s been free for a really long time

Of course it has. You need to offer the world a useful service for some length of time before you have dominated the market to such an extent that you can cut the quality and jack up the prices without there being any meaningful competition to worry about.

kbal, to risa in The Crossover No One Asked For or Remembered

I love it, but it was pretty messy a lot of the time in various different ways. My impressions were:

Season 1: Brilliant, really good science fiction
Season 2: Fun episodic comedy sci fi
Season 3: Sometimes weird, sometimes gruesomely tedious
Season 4: Trying to be more like a normal comedy TV show, results mixed

Apparently some doctors are of the opinion that keeping your mouth shut can also be helpful in severe cases of Rick Berman disease.

Ah right, there was a book I've been meaning to download. Thanks for the reminder, FBI!

Could be worse. Someone sharing my IP is into really freaky stuff like "kubuntu-23.10-desktop-amd64.iso"

kbal, to news in WhatsApp’s AI shows gun-wielding children when prompted with ‘Palestine’
@kbal@fedia.io avatar

Somehow I get the feeling that equating "reality" with "propaganda created by kindergartens" is the rhetorical equivalent of dividing by zero.

There is a kind of political power that grows out of the barrel of a gun. That thing must be destroyed.
