GOG has taken a shot at Sony's decision to stop making PlayStation game discs in 2028, reminding people why many PC gamers like DRM-free games.
GOG posted on X:
"Download the offline installer of any of your games on GOG, save it to a disc, and it's yours forever. You don't need a storefront's permission to play what you bought."
GOG lets you download offline installers for every game you buy.
That means you can back them up and install them anytime, even without the GOG launcher or an internet connection.
DRM-free games, once you buy them, you can keep your own copy and play it whenever you want.
Ben screwed up reeeall good by making this claim.
Charlie’s security team called Ben shapiro’s IDF security team before they called anyone else…. ? Before they’d even gotten Charlie to the hospital? When they should have been stopping bleeding and protecting the spine.
What???
@SaltyGuy117@Timcast Think this nails it but would add that vices are usually the first thing to go when people (non-addicts) feel financial pressure. I'm sure this plays part in it. Endless money printing +stagnant wages are being felt nationwide and certainly doesn't help LV.
Christopher Hitchens: ”In 1786, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. Tripoli, shores of Tripoli. Ships stopped, its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate 1.5 million European and American slaves taken between 1750 and 1815.
Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusades. We weren't at war with Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people? The ambassador said very plainly, Mr. Abdul Rahman said, because the Quran gives us permission to do so, because you are infidels, and that's our answer. Jefferson said, well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state, which he did.
Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and blames us for the attacks made upon us.”
To the Americans:
I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.
And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:
You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.
This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.
Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.
This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.
But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.
This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.
And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:
Thank God for the United States.
Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.
Long may your admirable country dominate the world.
Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.
May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.
Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.
Thank God for the USA.
Happy 250th.

As I predicted, the diabolical plan to force YouTube to show BBC news results in every person's feed is being branded as a "Media Literacy" initiative to give it political cover. Watch the vid below I did 3 years ago on this scam 👇
YouTube can’t stop this. They need the US State Dept & White House to step in and counter with threats to British interests in the US. Threaten you will hit Shell/BP in energy, AstraZeneca/GSK in pharma, BAE in defense, & HSBC/Barclays in finance the second the Brits hit YouTube
USAID funded, directly or indirectly, HIV/AIDS-related programs in 127 countries. We only know this one 👇 was fake because internal documents leaked. Open question: Exactly how many of USAID's other HIV/AIDS programs in those other 126 countries were fake like this?
@Pirat_Nation This is easily fixed: stop buying digital.
Nobody is forcing you to do it, so don't. Very easy. When sales crater they will revisit this decision.
Until then nothing will change for the better.
USAID gave its fake HIV/AIDS workers secret code phrases like “I have a headache” to alert USAID if the fake aid workers thought counter-intelligence agents discovered the truth that the USAID-funded AIDS prevention workshops were a secret front.
