I guess it's when footage looks "too perfect"?
Power users are the exact people who would get the most benefit out of Linux, though. Speaking as one of them who got sick and tired of Windows' bullshit. I'd argue Linux already very much competes with Windows, and has many advantages sourced from it being an open and not profit driven operating system.
Finally do I have an operating system that actually tries to work with me to get what I want, rather than tries to obstruct me every part of the way because "it knows best" or whatever windows tries to do.
You can always go back to the old versions
I feel like I hear this story repeated over and over and over and over and over.... everywhere.
At what point will we stop letting the business types degrade our human civilization for their egoistic short-term gains?
Asteroid mining and space industry is a huge reason, and it's the next logical step for humanity, especially since it means we can put dirty industry where nature and life doesn't exist.
There are absurd amounts of resources in space, a lot of which are difficult to access or rare on earth. In addition, space can give opportunities for new forms of manufacturing, from being able to control the level of gravity due to weightlessness, to being surrounded by vacuum. Two things which are either very difficult or impossible to recreate on earth.
It's enough to look at how much stuff is available in a supermarket, or in the average, home, to know we live in an age of abundance. The problem is, is that abundance is not shared, but hoarded.
We have enough food to feed the world, we have enough production for everyone in the world to have a smartphone and internet access and electricity. We can make clothes for everyone, we can home everyone. We have enough healthcare for everyone.
By an objective measure, we have abundance, we have enough. The world is just severely mismanaging our resources and the distribution of them. Because the economy doesn't work for humans, instead humans work for the economy.
And if you have the game downloaded, you still have the files. Just as much as you have a disk.
On the other hand, disks stop being produced far sooner than digital games stop being sold/hosted.
So the issue is about having DRM, not whether it's sold on physical media or not. Digital games don't necessarily need to have DRM either.
Why do you think a game on a physical disk won't have securities?
Well, you can make copies of digital media too.
Sure, there's DRM, but it doesn't matter whether it's digital or physical in that instance, DRM can be added either way.
Should we stop using a word because it describes reality too well? I see it everywhere these days, and it's an accurate descriptor.
