Boltgun accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. Great game. It gives me the same sort of power fantasy vibe that Space Hulk: Deathwing did but lets you actually move at the terrifying speed that a space marine should.

Fuck sake it took me nearly ten hours just to learn how to read in Tunic

By far my favorite. I play this one every year and will continue to do so until my death.

While you may be correct I think you're still missing the point. CLI is for super nerds. While you and I may know how to use it, the average person doesn't, and is unlikely to put in the effort to learn. That is the innovation that Apple made in bringing computing to the mainstream. It was precisely because people didn't have to learn how to navigate the CLI environment and instead got an easy point-and-click interface that computers caught on with the public at large, and that gained Apple an absolute ton of cash money and noteriety.

So that you can stand on the lift, and not get head trauma every time you want to travel to a lower deck I'd assume.

If you judge a fish by his ability to climb a tree, he will live his entire life thinking he is a failure.

It is clearly criminal already.

And the next 20 below that do not.

If you aren't willing to look past the first four results to find what you want, internet shopping may not be for you.

Be quiet, the adults are talking.

The answer is really just that Q does what he fuckin wants and everyone else is left to suffer the consequences

Because, historically, prohibition of [x] has been a highly effective strategy with no downsides whatsoever.

Now every skiddie can do it.

And this is the real, serious problem. Most people are pretty unlikely to stop a state sponsored spy operation no matter how careful they are. It's barely worth worrying about unless you know for a fact you're being tapped and that you will be killed about it, and even if you do know this the state can pull some space age bullshit out of their asses that doesn't yet have a counter. Top secret military industrial research goes into maintaining that exact advantage every year, if they really want to get you, you will get got. But if Joey Dickbeater and his school friends can just point a mic at your window and then upload it to the Pass-o-Gram to decode it, you have a real problem. It's like when TikTok kids figured out they can steal Kias with usb keys - if every teenager in America knows how to steal your car, its lifetime is going to be measured in minutes. Same with passwords.

Sounds like it's time to buy a bunch of random cherry switches and randomize them across my keyboard.....
