It is the command line interface for libvirt/qemu/kvm on Linux. I usually just use virt-manager remotely via SSH to create and manage my VMs, but virsh can be handy as well.

We have free health care? Coulda fooled me.

Nope, no mods. I've noticed certain braziers will have the effect in barrows and such.

I watched my dad slowly starve to death from cancer cigarettes gave him, so no, cigarettes don't "rule".

I'm not sure how it worked, all I know is that it was real time and would react to player models, enemies or other things that would move in unpredictable ways, but only for specific light sources.

I've seen the effect in other places, though I guess technically they can stick that torch wherever they want as you explore.

Skyrim has "ray traced" shadows in certain places and works great. I was in a cave once and hiding behind a cliff. An enemy was wandering around the next room and I was able to use the shadow cast on him by a torch to observe his movements without having his actual body in my field of view.

Ya know they make a valid point. Part of the learning experience growing up and going to school in the 90s and early 00s was figuring out how to bypass the school's restrictions with proxies, or how to load Quake 2 onto every computer in the district so we could sneak and have little impromptu LAN parties, etc. Hell, one of us got caught hacking into the student records portal to change his grades and after he graduated they hired the kid to work in the IT department. He works for a local ISP now.

Nowadays they don't know how to use a computer, they just know how to click icons and get apps from sanctioned app stores.

I got it from F-Droid for free.

Concersations.im. It's my backup because it supports OMEMO and OpenPGP.

Besides that, Element (Matrix). I use it for its public rooms.

If they're gonna go after people who mutilate children they need to start by banning circumcision.
