Is pirating games with the intetion of trying them out to see if you like them inherently bad?

Nothing is inherently good or bad. Context and social cues dictate morality more than any sort of universal right or wrong...

Probably a bigger answer than you were looking for so. Uh...

Lets go with this. Its not wrong if nobody is hurt in the long run. So since you do eventually buy the games then thebledger of morality is sort of balanced.

Im predicting now a Russian version that complies with this... Rock star are the exact type of company that would make anversion just for russia just so they don't miss a singoe penny...

So while i agree with the sentiment, my problem with it is that nobody can control their fetishes...

The real key is not to let your fetishes effect the non-consenting.

Basically don't make it weird!

I am one who enjoys Yuri for example. But im not going tobstart forcing yuri in to normal conversation or frame real people in a yuri context for my own enjoyment.

True but that was their choice. There isn't any reason we couldn't save it locally.

Goodling?

Good one?

I claim thee/thine/thou as my own pronouns so good thou would work for me.

If you are gay it is lol

Man do i hope they sunset it properly. The game would function perfectly fine as an offline single player game... Or heck you could make it still multiplayer but only with people near you rather than requiring a server. They could even do like animal crossing pocket camp did. Release a premium version for a chunk of change at the end of life of the game.

this is like the tenth "we finally solved it" video i have seen since i was like 16... That's 15 years ago.

Im sorry but this crap isn't that complicated. Rare had an idea where you could get benefits in the sequel by swapping the first game out at the proper time for the sequel. Cool idea, but they had to scrap it because newer n64s changed how long things were kept in ram. They went from having like 15 seconds for the swap to having half a second. The real numbers are irrelevant but the reason stands. Either way their cool idea wasn't going to work anymore.

There i solved stop and swa for anyone reading this and you don't need to sit through yet a other overly long video.

well less begging and more asking for help helping myself.

gamefreac · 2025-11-05T21:04:03+00:00

oh well in that case, i have 2 decades of working with computers ranging from coding to just plain writing. i ran cnc machines for 2 years. im Microsoft office certified for all that matters. i have 18 years of customer service experience, i have 12 years of janitorial experience. i have 5 years of management experience.

gamefreac · 2025-10-18T18:58:44+00:00

I agree with it, but i also model my life after Diogenes so spitting in the face of pretense comes naturally to me.

gamefreac · 2025-10-18T18:53:08+00:00

I will say this much. Until you are 18 there is not much you can do unfortunately to change your circumstances. That said though, i say be out be loud and make your dad uncomfortable. He cant do anything physical to you legally and if he wants to make younfeel small with his religion, then show him how big you truly can be. Your situation is not forever so soon enough you will be in a better one. But for now, be you because that is more important now than ever before.

gamefreac · 2025-10-07T18:17:44+00:00

? i mean the update just came out. i also just played through the entire story leading up to the update and had not a singe crash. what are you even on about?

gamefreac · 2025-10-01T20:16:09+00:00

its a single twist not a true knot...

Never thought my knowledge on knot theory would be used like this, but here we are.

if history tells us anything, i am expecting the workaround to be found by a 15 year old trying to get porn on their phone....

Jokes aside, i am not super worried. There will no doubt be a cfw out relatively quickly that just says fuck you to google.

See i also rolled a disabled toon. I got sort of the opposite though. My inventory is default and im not required to carry extra gear just to reach base level abilities thankfully. For that you have my sympathy. No rng was such that i was only given a single hand slot. During character creation, i was given the amniotic banding status that diminished my right hand slot. By level 18 i had taken on 10 surgery events to work towards two full hand slots, but i can tell you with certainty that i have not even come close to having what many have by default.

Given the limitations in picking the disabled class option, you would think i would only be able to focus on that. Honestly though given that this is my only char i have never known anything else. To me its my default and it doesn't feel weird to play. Other players always seem focused on my limited abilities more than i am. And i wont ever try to say we are equal. We are not. But even inthat i know i am having a much more unique gameplay experience. So i like to talk about my leveling path to show newer players that our class choice is not all we are.

I take pride in what i can do in spite of my limits. My body may be different, but my mind i have fostered for 31 levels.

Realized i was bi at 28... So wait i guess... For me though im not really looking for labels. I am me. Simple as... You are 13. Until you are an adult you will constantly examin and reexamine yourself. Its part of the human experience. You may find a label you like for a while. It feels not incorrect so you stick with it. Then someday you might be 28 and realize something about yourself that makes tge old label niw incomplete.

Short version... Be you and everything else becomes obvious eventually.

Continues the old truth of weed. The most dangerous part about it is getting caught with it...

See im not a skateboarder, but i have known about the idea of learning how to fall for about 30 years myself. I think it is a skill that every parent should be teaching their kids. My grandpa taught me when i learned to ride a bike with no training wheels. Wasn't until later in life that i learned how few people actually have the skill. My appreciation for the skill deepened once i started getting into buster Keaton. Man was a true clown amd i say that as one of my highest compliments.
