Do you not but games anymore then, or do you think steam is better?

Though if you only play FOSS or self published games, that would be kinda based.

Change your mind on a product. Do they put it back where it belongs or throw it on the nearest clearly wrong shelf?

If you can push it around the shop full of things, you can put it back while empty.

Where does homebrewing using ingredients I grew in my garden sit on the scale of acceptable/unacceptable? Would be nice to get into beekeeping but it looks like the entry costs are quite high for something I have absolutely no idea about. Also my garden is tiny.

Depends a lot on what you are watching

Yeah that is what I liked doing with KSP mods. My last long playthrough was using USI mods and that at least partially gets away from the jank by abstracting the majority of the bases across the solar system to a spreadsheet with no parts used, including interplanetary logistics. Then you just need a few parts where you want to take some actual resources out to use them for something.

I got to the point of having fuel stations around orbit of Kerbin and both of its moons, also had rare mineral mining going to make cash. If I play again the next step is to start mining and refining useful amounts of metals so that my orbital ship assembly doesn’t need to import quite so much mass from the space centre. Start with mining to make the heavy bits first and then over time build more and more of the production chain myself in space so fewer and fewer things need to be launched into space.

Once all that stuff is done, start looking to other planets as well. Although I often ran quite a few simultaneous missions so already got probes heading out to most planets. At least tiny probes if nothing else, as once its small enough it doesn’t really need to be the most efficient launch window. Just burn an extra 2000dV of fuel which is only about 100kg? Sure, this rocket is so cheap it doesn’t really matter.

Something I liked in KSP was building based on moons, would love it if that is less janky and more useful.

How? Mine have worked fine. At least until today when part of the plastic snapped but they are over 5 years old. Going to try glue it tomorrow.

May look for a replacement sometime, always used wired so far.

I have a regular bike because it is even cheaper to run than an ebike. What distro should we use?

Untaxed, unregistered, unlicensed, uninsured. Do all the maintenance myself.

I’ll spend my money on the few great exceptions then, rather than the mediocre slop.

People live in vans. But in the UK I am not aware of any legal option for buying a cheap patch of land and living on it in a temporary structure - you are allowed the structure, but can’t live in it.

Why should I care? I didn’t tell them to hire 400 people to make some generic mass market slop. I won’t even bother to pirate it.

I never justified it. Cheaper indie games have always been here.

But we do live under capitalism. Whether we like it or not.

UK requires bikes to be pedal assist anyway, pedal at 1w and the motor does the effort. Yes I am training for the tour de France sprints, that is why I am going so fast.

I leave the building and go for a walk by the river. Usually watch the ducks for a bit.

Some can be pretty powerful. Not sure what you could get stealthily though. Backpack with the battery pack and run a cable down your leg to the motor?

Now I wonder how much thrust efficiency you get from a high powered electric turbine fan…

Result: loads of labourers lose employment, the rich take land from the commoners.

Should we come up with stealth ebikes and make regular bikes look a bit like ebikes, they can’t tell the difference.

We often joke about making our cat a scarf from all the fur he sheds
