I had never heard of it, but I went to find out who won the SC2 gold medal and found out instead that they only included video game versions of established olympic sports, i.e. the fortnite was target shooting mode because target shooting is a sport that's in the olympics.
Turns out I was wrong though, according to the dictionary "post" does have that meaning, at least approximately. I think that sense is somewhat archaic, probably surviving thanks to exactly one well-worn cliché phrase.
The 4-letter one is obvious, perhaps even more so if you're British. The 8-letter one I probably should've got more quickly. The five-letter one is dubious at best. The six-letter one is definitely not a synonym of "post" at all. So yeah, not easy this time.
I hesitate to attribute it to accidental mismanagement. Surely Microsoft has enough experience by now to be pretty good at acquiring firms they think of as competition only to find some excuse to shut them down.
The one time I've asked for a refund on steam was when I mistakenly bought the remastered instead of the original version of an old game I wanted, and found that it had been ruined by the addition of a (not easy to bypass and wouldn't run under wine) "launcher" that was there for the sole purpose of getting you to register an account and log in so they could collect whatever data they wanted.
Sometimes science fiction tells you something about the people who produced it. Other times, readings of of science fiction tell you something about the people who read it. This essay is ambitious but doesn't ever pause to justify its stark claims about particular works and doesn't quite hold together to the end.
From the looks of the first episode, one thing it's definitely not is low budget. It's well-crafted and probably very expensive. The sex is perfunctory and the violence is lovingly detailed at great length. There are no real surprises, good or bad, in how they've handled things.
Personally I probably would've preferred low-budget and camp, but I imagine it will succeed in achieving the goals that its producers had in mind. I will probably watch some more.
Things were much better back in the good old days when the social pressure to buy lego bricks and action figures was reinforced only by a constant barrage of TV advertising.
If you want examples of games where the situation with mods is much worse than it is for Skyrim, you could look at literally any other game that exists. For one indication of that, if you look at the front page of nexusmods.com right now it appears to list the games it covers in order of mod files downloaded. Skyrim is #1 (SE) and #2 (LE) on the list. The next three are other Bethesda games. Skyrim Special Edition is ahead of the first non-Bethesda game on the list by an order of magnitude. You will not find a game anywhere else offering anything like the quantity, quality, and diversity of mods that Skyrim has, and this is a large part of the reason it ranks among the best-selling games of all time.
They're mad to try and mess with the model that has proven itself more successful than anything else for more than a decade.
That is working for me (on linux) but the other thing you can do is make a backup of the game files before it updates and then restore the old version afterwards, according to this post on nexus
