I will fully admit I’m more than a “little” rude on this account. This the account I use the vent my depression, self-loathing, and misanthropy. Maybe sometimes I’m nice on here as a treat.

I made a spreadsheet to compare cheapo cars. Then my brother, who is a car person, went with me to car shop and insisted I buy a '92 Honda Prelude that was in pristine looking condition for 7k. He was very insistent that it was a steal even if I needed to put another couple grand to fix it up, so I bought it.
Unfortunately, I have indeed needed to put more money into it, its currently in the shop right now in fact.
I’ve never owned a fast car before, I’ll admit its a fun car to drive. All my previous cars were boring A to B basic cars. I wish it’s cruise control worked (still can’t figure out why it wont), that it had come with cup holders, and that its speakers weren’t so tinny.
What if you think you kinda suck, but also think most other people are way the fuck worse?
Both of these people sound insufferable. (And I’m autistic)
Steam’s DRM is not mandatory to release a game on Steam. Its there in fact to provide a necessary lesser evil than to encourage every developer/publisher to produce their own. They still unfortunately do, which Steam at least warns customers about, but them providing their own minimal DRM is a good thing, given the context.
(That said, I still respect gog)
You point out that the game wouldn’t exist without exclusivity but then immediately point out that it totally could exist if the profit motive did not run our economy.
The existence of exclusives is a form of cultural capture by capitalists (As is copyright). I would argue that it would indeed be better if Alan Wake 2 was never made if it meant that exclusives stopped being made entirely, and Alan Wake 2 looks like a game I absolutely want to play.

Yeah that’s what I kind of told him, its age was a concern to me but he said that while I wasn’t the ideal user, that it’d probably still serve me well as long as I take care of it because he said old Hondas are very reliable. He was insistent it was the best option out of the cars we were looking at. He also loves Hondas though so I’m wondering if he was a tad biased and it was really just a car he’d like.
I’ll say I do feel some level of responsibility to making sure its taken care of because its like a cool old car and IDK if I want that sense of responsibility. But I also really don’t want to go car shopping again.
