Drafting* class taught me that you can build any structure with just a T-square, a compass, a pencil, and some basic math.

*As in the precursor to Computer-Aided Drafting. My school was cheap and didn't let us use AutoCAD till the 2nd semester.

But anyway, place the straight piece of wood across a gap. One end of the string goes around the middle of the wood, the other end hangs down where you tie the rock. You can visually tell with decent enough accuracy if the rock is hanging closer to one side (not level) or just straight down (level). If you can't tell, get a longer string.

Sure, that works too, if you have the hard disk space. If not, or if that space is on a different machine, then Ventoy is pretty handy.

FreeBSD support! Linux usually gets all the love here but more folks should try BSD, and now here's a very easy way to do it.

Oh, "CS cases" here = CounterStrike cosmetics.

My first thought was that it sounds pretty unethical to be making that much money on Customer Service tickets. Not even sure how that would work.

Well, crossed that off my Steam wishlist. And any other Capcom games.

or a Beverly Hills sanitation worker who moonlights as a practice subject for budding proctologists?

Yeah, it's definitely the last one 😆

Made with 40% giri scout, unless you read the side, then it's 30%.

I would definitely say GOG has good service overall. The one time I had to return a game they were pretty helpful and accommodating. It's just not at the level of Steam with a continual push of innovative and player-friendly features.

I'm on Linux where Heroic Launcher fills the app role, so GOG gets a smidge less credit there.

Ok, thanks. I've played maybe an hour of DE so far and maybe it was the controls moreso than the perspective that felt awkward. I might just need to tinker or get acclimated. Since it's all story I want to play it on my TV or Steam Deck, so gamepad input rather than M+KB.

Cool I'll take a look at mods, good suggestion. Yeah I'd like to be able to get more of an over-shoulder view sometimes during combat or exploration. Or at least lower to the ground.

Yep, came to post this. I think I've spent more and more on Steam every year because they have actually stuck to this principle.

Don't get me wrong I love GOG for the confirmed lack of DRM. But they just don't do service like Valve.
