hey I just wanted to share that I moved to a small, remote-ish village in Greece about a year ago (born & raised in Athens, a “big” city for our standards, the biggest in Greece) and it’s quite close to that.
It’s been amazing although I miss ordering food online and maybe the occasional bar/coffee with friends.
It’s almost inside a forest and 15’ drive from both mountain and amazing beaches
Thank you for listening, I honestly hope that everyone has the choice to do the same <3
I really need to test them as well. Being ~100GB each is quite good for me, I won’t need more than 100 for my whole life
I get it about stuff that you don’t really care about But if I spend a day looking for a specific movie, I’m taking it to my grave
I’m so happy about steam’s monopoly. I almost feel like they’re there for us, they broke capitalism
exactly that, INCLUDING server-side binaries to re-create any online features
I could argue that the source code should become public domain as well but we already sound like crazy people
discs are a personal archiving solution (quite a bad one too, unless you’re into m-discs n stuff) and do not solve the data accessibility issue (copying it is labor intensive and needs human interaction, in contrast to a torrent)
Just a side note that M-DISC exists which is essentially a blue ray disk with a claimed longevity of a thousand years (strong emphasis on “claimed”. there’s a lot of controversy around it)
but yes the only way to retain access is piracy as it allows people that didn’t have the media to get it
γερμανος κ ξερο ψωμι!
BTW: please don’t root/install magisk on a phone you use <3
yeap steam is the best example of a service i’d very happily pay - I’ve paid LOTS to them and just last month, I downloaded “have a nice death” for yuzu, played 30", loved it and insta bought it on steam. It was 25 euros but having my saves forever and being able to single click install & play is something that I value more.
you don’t get to get my money AND fuck me, pick one (netflix, youtube, etc.)
not a huge difference i’d say. in athens you can get really good food
