Can I play this using a tile set on Linux without Steam?
~~Hi Shelley! How are you? I really hope you're doing well.~~ Shelley, we didn't go to school together and you're not my kris kringle, I'm at work and I need x. Ping me if you need anything. Also donuts in the kitchen.
but the argument I have nothing to hide except bank account passwords etc is hard to argue with
It's simple to argue against: any and all data points are either potential threat vectors, or will in aggregate paint a better picture of the individual they pertain to, for the data's possessor to use as they wish. A default-deny policy for data creation/access makes as much sense for individuals as it does workplaces.
'No one's spying on me, I'm not interesting' is more pernicious than Nothing to Hide. Most adults can kind of sense the idiocy of the latter refrain. But ask the utterer why advertising is a trillion-dollar industry if their attitudes and behaviours aren't interesting, or why a data broking industry even exists, and you'll typically be asked 'why care?'
What's harder to work out is whether the utterance is a genuine failure to comprehend the nature of surveillance capitalism, or a grasping denial of its impact, as though they're only 80 per cent convinced of their footprint's worthlessness. It's difficult to convince someone to turn down their data faucet when they barely acknowledge the faucet's existence to start with.
Good:
- The supporting cast
- Watching the Entity do its thing
- Rome, Austria, desert segments
- The lead bounty hunters' introspection about taking sides
- The subtext about trust of technology and its role in parsing everyday reality
Bad:
- The entire Venice segment. Cringe.
- Further to above, clunky plotting. It's the real villain of this film. Things feel strained in a way that Fallout never did.
- Gabriel. Who cares?
Raise hell with your telecomms regulator. Choice of DNS (not to mention how web content is rendered) is solely your business, but it will only remain that way if you get vocal.

The best thing good users can do is remain on the client for the long term, ensuring traders remain a small minority. The next best thing they can do is PM traders regularly with requests to share. Make their sessions a pain in the butt due to the private chat alert going off routinely. 'Hey trader, please open up to non-buddies temporarily, even at a crippled speed. I'd like two items from you. You know Soulseek is a sharing platform, right?' Some may realise the ridiculousness of their position and co-operate.
Don't stoop to their level by blacklisting, either. They will take that as endorsement of their behaviour. (Set 20kb/s down if it makes you feel better.)
Alright guys the software has this defederate feature, now you do you but I suggest thinking of it like a break-glass-in-ca--
Did you use the website or the mobile app? I'm interested in diving in but want to do so in the least invasive way.
So you're telling me there's this Cuban institution where ordinary people co-operate to maintain a commons independently of the state, enjoy and retain locally stored data, and provide an affordable, accountable service to people? Pretty based to me. I hope it survives the obsolescence threat posed by better web access.
