Be cool if they could integrate with gadgetbridge

With a little fucking around I’m fairly sure you could do it on the phone itself via termux.

Yes, fuck Amazon and Bezos. No argument there. But this also helps people who have previously paid for content to break out of Amazon lock-in while keeping what they’ve paid for. You don’t have to buy new stuff, but this means you can keep the old stuff.

Not familiar with those particular games, but if you’re lucky there might be a third party mod manager that takes some of the hassle out.

I’m pretty sour on murena. Never used their hardware but their cloud services have been down since October last year.

Dialing in to a local BBS to play 4-player deathmatch DooM 2, circa 1995.

How the fuck do you even pronounce Zoox? I swear the marketing departments are just mashing their keyboards at this point.

A subscription fee for a fucking license plate? We already have that, it’s called registration.

The first one wasn’t even good.

It’s the fourth game in the X series. Originally named after the player’s ship in the first game, the X-Shuttle. X being short for experimental.

Regarding “Foundations”, from the Release Q&A

Why is the game called X4: Foundations?
Owen: I think some people get confused because of the two different uses of the word foundations. I think some people maybe think foundation like a corporation or a charity, while we’re more thinking of the building foundation. Something we build off and what the races in the universe are building off. They’re still recovering from all the gates shut down and they’re finally getting on their feet.
Bernd: It’s funny, how we choose names. It was not not long before the presentation actually that we had a long list of possible names and some people like some, but there was no name that everybody liked. Once that we found this name, everybody seemed to like it. Partially for different reasons. But what I like about the names for X-games is always that they leave some things to interpretation just like the X itself. If the game stands for anything, then it stands for the freedom and that the game can be different things for different people.

Oh wow I can’t wait to strap a hallucination machine to my face

Soulseek. I’ll search a band I like, then browse the directories of other people with similar taste.

Timing and length of ads won’t be consistent between users so this approach doesn’t work.

Using a different client won’t help if the ads are injected directly into the video stream.

Not sure it strictly counts as Grand Strategy as it’s more of a sandbox, but X4 might be up your alley on the sci-fi front. Build a galaxy spanning empire from a single ship; complete missions, mine, trade, explore. You -can- fly the ships, but you don’t have to. You can just sit in a station issuing orders.

I’m pretty sure I tried the desktop app method at some point. Didn’t work at all for me but I can’t recall why.

Oh it’s an absolute slog for sure. And I can’t even guarantee it still works. I wouldn’t have even tried if I didn’t happen to chance upon a suitable device. Definitely wouldn’t recommend paying eBay prices for one just to do this.
