Also, on a meta level, the creators got screwed over by capitalists because that's just what a scorpion will do if you give it a ride across a river.

Or maybe they were really good at coming up with stuff, but really bad at managing projects. And when the organization grew to more than a few people they couldn’t handle it anymore and couldn’t deliver on what they had committed to.

Everyone has a story in this particular screw up, and while I really would like the moral to be “capitalism bad/creatives good”, it sounds like your average SME implosion.

It’s a highly political game in general, and it’s pretty obvious the critiques of communism were written by insiders.

It’s also the best illustration of the complexities of investigative police work I’ve ever seen in a computer game.

It’s also a lot of dialogue. But the voice acting is superb.

I was about to say, that’s an oddly specific request…

I don’t believe in backing up anything that is not user files. Pets vs cattle and all that.

Set your /home to a different partition, I know I already mentioned this but it will save your ass the first t*me you break your system and have to reinstall.

Also back up your fstab so you know what partition/disk UUID is what.

First subdomain. I think HA is completely right that proxy with a subpath is basically an anti-pattern that just makes things worse for you and is always a bad idea (with very few exceptions).

It’s only an “anti pattern” because app developers are, on the whole, lazy bastards that start out hard coding stuff and then get discouraged at the amount of work needed to fix things after the fact.

I should know: I am one of these people.

It’s crap, it’s best to roll with the punches and use a sub domain.

Add ons are just shitty packaging of other software. Just run the other software directly.

Words mean what the people using them agree that they mean.

You are holding a minority position here. It would seem you do not know what your form of government is called.

He did it live on television, you idiot.

Pinpoint exactly how he tried to remain in power.

He tried to get a mob to murder his own vice president.

We were there. It was not too long ago. We remember.

The fact that he’s crap at seizing power doesn’t mean he should get away with it. In fact, guess what usually happens to failed golpistas.
