I get the principled reason to do this. But most people aren’t set up to pirate. And even if they were, it’s inconvenient to have games not attached to their steam library. I don’t think anyone should deprive themselves of this masterpiece.
If the prospect of pirating is holding you back, just buy it. The game is too good to miss out
From the post:
Whether it’s a local or a cloud-based model, if you want to use AI, we think you should have the freedom to use (or not use) the tools that best suit your needs
Maybe try travel? Bring your laptop / deck / switch so you can game on the road. But do it from some place new. If you can work from home, maybe try moving around on short term rentals. Doesn’t need to be anything exotic, could be the next town over.
Anything to break up your routine a bit. Don’t look at it as a means to an end. Try and enjoy the journey itself

For that use case, go syncthing. Nextcloud would be overkill. I run both, I use syncthing for my personal files and Nextcloud when they should be shared with others.
Certain events like marathon swimming and triathlon can’t be done in a pool.
Ah, yeah I guess you can’t browse your photos using a file system view. I just meant that it won’t automatically reorganize your pictures on the file system.
However you can create albums via an API call. You could probably write a script that adds each folder to an album or something.
It definitely can, it’s called an “external library”. I just added my entire photo collection and use Immich as a frontend to view them all
Yeah that’s fair… Bad example :p
It’s like a vicious cycle:
AI is going to make it so much worse. You’ll soon be in the top 5% if you have a keyboard app installed on your phone.
Ugh
Who are these people who think it’s unethical to get paid for your work? It blows my mind that that could even be an accusation.
Oh for sure. I don’t think anyone is arguing that they don’t have the right to ask people to stop sending them money. But we can still criticize that position. I’m not sure they’ve thought through the message they are sending.
Yeah exactly. I’m calling BS that the thrill of the chase is the main motivator. Maybe it is for a handful, but for the most part people just like to be dickheads.
How can costs only be $600 / month. Do they not pay themselves? I guess that’s admirable, but it doesn’t set a good precedent. Will any young developers read this and internalize that they shouldn’t ask for money? OSS maintainers deserve to get paid for their efforts.
As soon as you decide to decentralize your platform it ceases to belong to any particular group.
Then why not prove you can do it and then shut the bot down?

Probably my favourite ARPG. You play as a peasant with no skill, and that actually translates in game. If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at games where you effortless smash waves upon waves of enemies, this game is for you. Beating even the lowliest grunt can be quite challenging, forcing you to play in ways other than “beat everything up”.
The neat thing is the story is not only based on real life events, but all the towns exist (still to this day in the Czech Republic), the geography is super accurate (relative distnace, rivers, ridges, etc) and even the buildings are modelled off the real things (some are still standing, or you can still see their ruins).
This game ticked so many boxes for me, and is a steal at $8
