I have heard that you don’t need a lawyer in small claims court (in the sense that it’s not really expected). Like I said, though, I know little about it. Maybe someone in a position to know will show up in this thread and fill us all in.
I think the US small claims court is meant to handle situations like this (although I know little about it). I wonder if it’s available to litigants from other countries.
I guess that makes sense. I haven’t used Discord in a while, but I think tags are less noisy over there, since they don’t render as something long like @someusername. I avoid unnecessary tags on Lemmy because all that extra syntax makes for cluttered comments.
Your description reminds me of Doki Doki Literature Club, which also takes the dating sim visual novel format in unexpected directions. To avoid spoilers, I can’t say much more than that, except that it’s free and that I found it interesting despite all these things being far from my usual taste in games.
The PC version of Dragon Age: Origins allowed programming the characters with combat rules, so I could decide ahead of time how I wanted them to behave in a fight. It was so much better than the usual options of either tedious micromanagement or watching a dumb AI do dumb things with my characters.
Running it wasn’t exactly straightforward. My CD-ROM copy was a no-go, but I managed to get the GOG version working in a 32-bit Wine prefix with DXVK. (I’m on linux.) Remaining problems are lack of wide-screen support (so I run it in a full-height window) and pauses between various scenes (which I might be able to solve with an older Wine version). It’s playable already, though; I’m glad I put in a little effort.
Other linux users wanting to try it might want to use Lutris, which seems to have install scripts for it, or a console emulator. Or maybe the Steam version works fine through Proton? I haven’t tried it.
Seems unlikely that all these would have fallen here.
I wonder what sort of creature would go around collecting them, only to leave them out where they would reflect light and attract the attention of anyone passing by. It’s almost as if…
How would this control people selling their used hardware? I don’t see anything about Sony trying to disable resold consoles.
you’ll get “a product that works like new with genuine PlayStation replacement parts (as needed) that has been thoroughly cleaned, inspected and tested”. You will receive all the cables and paperwork you need for a PS5, and it comes with a 12-month manufacturer’s warranty
I’m not them, but I dislike Epic Online Servies, too. Last time I read the terms document, it granted permission for way too much data collection, and I’m not a fan of spyware.
