There will come a time where the old fridge that is being replaced but still too good to throw away so it becomes the secondary fridge that lives in the shed… has internet. Assuming manufacturers don’t figure out a way to make it shut down when you stop subscribing, anyway.
The “app” is just a frontend, a thin venier over a cloud-hosted service that doesn’t even know anon “deleted” it. Functionally, the same result could be achieved by not opening the app for a few days.
I know nothing about this game other than it kinda looks like a real version of every zombie survival mobile game ad. Without the “get the girl” angle, granted. Could be fun?
God I’m glad I don’t like star wars anymore. It’d suck if ubisoft put out a game I actually wanted to play, and ruin the easiest boycott ever for me (by making it harder).
All fines should be income dependent. Especially for all flavours of corporation, in which case there should be no upper limit. If the corp goes bankrupt because they broke the law hard enough it should either go out of business or become a public entity if it’s vital.
Yes. All the time, and worse options besides. But there’s no temptation to do those things. It`s more like I’m being reminded that those are options, that nothing besides my own will – and the fact that I am in control of my body – prevents me from doing them. It’s scary. I hate it.
The part I don’t get is the idea that other people claim to have voices urging them to do these things.
The act in the picture isn’t a thought at all. It’s the result of someone deciding to do something destructive to see the result. I can’t imagine the thought “what if I stuck my soldering iron in the side of my solder spool” was that unwanted, distressing or upsetting, either. After all, OP decided to do it.
In my understanding, intrusive thoughts is something like this: you`re walking along the street and pass a woman pushing a pram, and a thought pops up reminding you that you could kick it into the traffic if you wanted, and here’s all the consequences. And because you’re not a psycho you reel at the idea, wanting to smack your head for even imagining it. But there is no temptation, no urging. The thought cannot “win” because it is not trying to get you to do it, it’s just an imagined possible scenario.
This is something different from having an impulse, which is something you could act upon as you describe. Or, I suppose, it is indeed to just decide to do something from your intrusive thoughts, but that seems unlikely because a key part of the definition of “intrusive thought” is that the thought must be unwelcome and/or distressing.

GOG doesn’t contribute to Proton AFAIK, and doesn’t offer amazing QOL stuff like Steam Input. But what you buy from them is yours forever, assuming you sensibly back it up yourself. So “best we got” is debatable depending on what you value.
Ah, I see. That’s a fair point, and yeah I do worry about GOG’s potential for enshitification. But knowing at least my past purchases will not become shit is some small comfort.
