10,000 Elite Dangerous Players Start An 18-Week Journey Across The Galaxy.

“The only thing that really worried me was the Fortnight. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a child in the depths of a battle royale (with cheese) binge. And I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon. Probably at the next Wi-Fi hotspot...”

I thought Trump was going to make Mexico pay for the wall?

He only said that 20 times. http://fortune.com/2018/12/13/trump-mexico-border-wall/
For it to be true he would have had to say it 25000 times.
May he live in interesting times.

So the choice is between Steam, or a Steam clone with less games and worse customer support that's still wet behind the ears? Tough choice.

Yes, but 12%. 12 percent. Twelve. Percent. Those numbers are magical, my Friend.

a Steam clone with less games and worse customer support that's still wet behind the ears?

Apple's Woes Dominate CES Tech Trade Show.

No. They don't. I'm here, and no one gives a shit.

So tired of this licensing crap. Happens more and more as time goes on.

At least in stays in your library if you have bought the game. Try the Apple movies store - buy (!) a movie and it is GONE (!) as soon as Apple loses the license. If Steam would do this... The rage would be incredible!

Apple isn't deleting movies from customer's iTunes accounts for any reason. What's happening is regional locked content is removed by the content provider or, rather, the iTunes platform is doing what the content provider ask the system to do. In other words, as the linked article points out: "Anders moved to Canada from Australia roughly nine months ago, and he bought the films in question in Australia before he moved. Some of his Australian content still works perfectly, but three films — Cars, Cars 2, and The Grand Budapest Hotel — aren’t in his library. It’s not a question of the films not being for sale, either — all three are still offered in the Canadian and Australian versions of the iTunes Store."

The Tandy was dandy. I played on it and the older TRS-80.

https://www.gog.com/game/soma's claim button doesn't work in my three web browsers (SM v2.49.4, IE11, & Firefox v64) in my decade old, updated 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 PC.

Worked for me (Firefox 64.0 - 64 bit with uBlock Origin and NoScript) although I used the button on the homepage (gog.com).

Yeah, home page's button worked. https://www.gog.com/game/soma did not.

Both work fine for me. Firefox 64.0, Win 10 Ent 64, NoScript. EDIT: Also Pi-Hole, but between my whitelists and it being GoG that really shouldn't matter anyway.

Interesting. I am using uBlock Origin. It says about 12-14 blockages.

I am sure you have seen alcohol in plastic. Boxed wine, mouthwash, first aid kit bottles, cheap stuff like malt liquor, little mini bottles, “shatter proof” containers, etc

You don't drink mouthwash, I hope!
