explore the cute, feminine avenues I can't in the real world.

You can explore whatever you want in the real world, people believe in you. 💃

Shapeshifters are just awesome characters anyway right?

R.J. MacReady would disagree with you on that part, but "hear, hear" to the rest of your post.

I just want you to know there are pills which are fairly easy to get your hands on which if you take will make your skin softer and cause you to grow breasts.

If that sounds intriguing to you, I further inform you there exist many people who happily take these pills for the entirety of their lives and the kind of person who would want to take such a substance is in no way a freak.

But yeah, girl avatars can do sick acrobatics, huh?

Well maybe 1000 games is too many.

Tell you what, we used to have 6 games and we were happy.

And when I look at the market prices of old retro games and then the counterfeits

I'm with you there, but maybe the prices are going up because new physical games aren't being released any more, so I can contort my way to blame that on digital gaming, too.

As for 3rd party repros I like those; they fill a niche. Heck, someone should make ...pros of games that never got physical releases.

The disk could always break.

That's what backups are for.

If there was any online component, they could always take down the servers. Or if the game was broken from the start or became broken at any point, they could always just never provide the necessary update to make it playable.

Digital only just makes those problems apply to all games.

I've never really been one to sell my games because I'm always wanting to go back and play them later, so I can't really offer any input on that fact.

I like playing a collection too, and I was able to acquire it because other people where able to sell/give away theirs

I just prefer the system that gives me at least a paper thin guarantee over the one that's less convenient and has absolutely no guarantee.

Being able to physically hold everything needed to play the game was our guarantee.
A guarantee the publisher would never ever be able to take what we had just paid $60 (or less, secondhand) away from us.

If I punched you in the dick, would you say, "At least you didn't kick me in the dick (with shoes!)"?

What good is legally "owning" a game if you can never sell it, and what good is games never breaking if you can't buy and run them from a yard sale for a quarter?

And that's ANOTHER thing. You never cleaned the cheesewheel from the hampster aerdrion valtrex.

Why won't you address the cruise boat missive ?

Right, your moral cowardice.

And then you gotta talk about giant squids.

Them things is huuuuuuuuuuge. Like you can fit two regular size squids inside one and the big ones at that.

All wriggly and covered in equal parts suckers and slime.

Life is like that, my friend. You got all sorts of movement in it and it's trying to slip away from you AS (get is? as) it grips onto you.

Them suckers is painful too, because they got fish hooks in them. Squid fish hooks are natures fish hooks, that's why they used to use them as fish hooks.

Of course they had to catch the squid to cut its arms up and once they managed that no one wanted to use the hooks anymore as they had just went through the trouble of inventing a non-hook-related method of catching sealife.

And life is like that, friend.

And how do you think axes get sharpened?

Whetstones! And you can't just smash a bat into a berry barn.
The edge is what gives axes ...pardon the expression... edge!

So if the gravy thickens what are you going to do with that apretrieaour of yours?

I hope you got some long-term strategy for weevils.

What part of gatekeeping access are you not able to wrap your head around and how many times do I need to explain profiting off uncompensated labor?

@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

They can’t gatekeep something that is available freely and easily outside of their service.

Can you see what they are there if you don't pay them? Do I need to explain a 6th time what gatekeeping is?

You still haven’t explained how anyone “stole” anything either.

Yes I have. You just keep ignoring everything I say.

FfaerieOxide, do piracy w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Right. They gatekeep them behind a paywall. This is like the forth time we've been over this.

They are engaged in rentseeking behavior and that is wrong.

How is freely copyable information no one who is profiting from wrote or transcribed a product?
It's rent-seeking and it's gross.

Spotify isn’t gate keeping access to the lyrics

"If you pay us, you can see this. If you don't, you cannot see it."

Now who doesn't know what gatekeeping is?

You also still haven’t answer how anyone “stole” anything?

I have. Multiple times.

No one is gathering access to lyrics.

I never said they were. The verb I used was gatekeeping.

You know, like how Spotify locks access to them behind a paywall. The exact thing I just described.
