I really think it comes down to the individual. I personally think that Aldous Huxley’s book Brave New World was likely derived at least partially from the book We by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin but both Aldous Huxley and my 10th grade English teacher would disagree. I don’t think it’s wrong to take someone else’s work and add upon it in a way you view beneficial. I view it as a natural evolution if anything and if it gives someone something to enjoy or makes the creative processes a little easier I’m all for it.

Yeah in the same remixing a song is considered original

Do you feel like you ever got over the initial setup period? A lot of what you are describing is what I encounter after a fresh install but I don’t typically have any issues after a little bit of tweaking.

What laptop is it?

I don’t do much. Most of them are friends from when I was a kid but in a weird way I worry they would judge me in a disappointed kind of way with how my life is going.

It’s still $400 to buy Sims 3 as well despite the game being over ten years old.

Hotline Miami 2. I’ve beat it on several platforms but I really don’t think it’s as good as the original.

Fallout 3. Mostly due to the mountain of technical issues it has on PC but even playing on console you can run into stability issues.

Probably Raddle.me. it seems like a somewhat privacy focused version of Reddit that has their terms of service has a section against bigotry and far right ideology.

Unfortunately there isn’t a mobile app though.

Same. Big fan of their net installer

From my understanding it’s for preventing unwanted sounds similar to a pop filter

Yeah. I mean I’m not aware of many Eastern sources (unless you consider Al Jazeera) so I definitely wouldn’t be able to tell political biasses and I’m never going to trust Twitter or Reddit.

BBC also appears to be more neutral than other sources like Vice or Fox News

More times than I can recollect

Parents feeding their baby cola in bottles and smoking while pregnant are two things that usually cause me to make assumptions

I like their coverage. If it’s something I don’t feel totally in the loop in they typically include some background

Do you think they are actively trying to become moderators of those communities or is there a chance they’re trying to recreate the subreddits they’re accustomed to?
