Yes, an OEM license is not transferable from the hardware the OEM originally installed it on, even to a VM running on that hardware.

I still use Reddit on desktop but I've switched to Lemmy on mobile since Reddit killed third party apps.

I would use just Lemmy but it hasn't hit userbase criticality yet.

It's fine as a link aggregator but frustrating when a post I'm interested in has a deserted comment section.

Been listening to this all week.

It's true, game prices today are the same as they have been for the past 40 years for AAA titles.

I can't think of an industry which hasn't had a price raise in decades.

Gaming had managed to get by on this thanks to increasing market volume as gaming became more mainstream in addition to extra revenue streams like micro transactions. But it's hitting saturation now and won't keep counteracting inflation forever

Yes, it's generally considered rude to switch languages specifically to hide your conversation.

It's because most will assume you are doing it to talk shit.

Exactly.

There really is nothing to negotiate anyway.

Ukraine does not want to give up territory.

Giving Russia anything for it is tatamount to paying a ransom. It would only encourage Russia to invade again in a decade or less.

Russia turning around and giving up the territory without gaining anything is just accepting complete defeat. They won't do that.

So it's a battle of attrition, both morale and economic.

I would argue that it's no longer 'egg' once it's carbon ash and therefore never melted before it's existence ended.

Then don't answer?

It's not like sending the call to voicemail is going to hurt my feelings.

Asking to call seems redundant. The call is the ask.

Ohh, I'm fully aware.

I love messaging even I have a physical keyboard infront of me.

It's specifically the mobile keyboards I hate.
