I used to use a system that was perfectly happy to let you use a semicolon when setting the password, but then login would fail if you did.
Depends on the distro. Some have a configuration setting to allow unfree software or not, others have separate repos.
A similar argument is what finally caused the value of the vi family of editors to click in my brain:
They are designed to be fully functional over even the shittiest possible* remote connection. You can’t always count on ctrl, alt, or even the arrow keys being transmitted in a way that is understood by the remote machine.
*Well, I guess the worst possible terminal would be something like an actual teletype, and in that case you’d probably want to fall back to ed or its descendants. To save paper, if nothing else.
Gah, you’re right. I had it that way at first, but then glanced down a list to check my count and they listed 2002’s Harem Adventures as a separate game even though it’s just the Java phone port of the original.
I’d just like to point out, for the record, that that isn’t the original trilogy. Sands of Time is the fifth Prince of Persia game.
You say that as though he isn’t one of them.

I think it’s because that’s the more distinctive part of her name. “President Harris” sounds kind of generic, like the fictional president from an action movie.

Also Bernie Sanders is mostly referred to by his first name, so…
Yeah, same tune, originally by Samuel Barber. Homeworld used the choral version, Agnus Dei.
Indeed, friend citizen. Would you like some Bouncy Bubble Beverage?
So crude, when you could use a butterfly.
Also “doctor” means teacher. The specific term for someone who practices medicine is “physician”.
It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.
Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.
Connect very slightly cuts off the bottom of the image for me.
IMO the early game exploration rush is the best part. Anomalies and archaeological digs give that great Star Trek vibe that kind of goes away once everyone is settled into their borders.
Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of hard drives speeding down the highway.
“On two occasions I have been asked, – “Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?” … I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.”
—Charles Babbage, on his analytical engine, 1864
