Stop Killing Games is a new campaign to stop developers making games unplayable
We've all been there right? You paid for a game, it required an active internet connection and a couple of years later the publisher decided they're done with it and shut it down leaving you with a broken game. Annoying.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Thankfully that has only happened to me once (Dragons and Titans). Being late to the whole Steam thing, I started out buying a ton of games, and for a long time I maintained a consistent 50% of my Steam library unplayed.
I also try to play the oldest games first, so I have a few years of backlog. Plus I bought most of the games on sale, so already not the newest when I bought them.
Too bad with Dragons and Titans, of the three MOBAs I have (Dota 2, Awesomenauts and D&T), it was the one I liked the most.

When I post about #science & #history, I tend to highlight the trailblazers we don’t usually read or hear about in #HistoryRemix.
But tonight I want to share this beautifully composed piece about Nikola Tesla.
While his inventions are legendary, you may not know how Tesla’s OCD shaped his approach to science & ultimately led to his world-changing ideas. It also left him isolated & alone. But he still experienced deep connection by caring for birds. nautil.us/teslas-pigeon-460446…

@BrodieOnLinux@linuxrocks.onli.ne Yes. I did not argue with that, even for a second.
The only thing I said is that in your analogy, you shouldn't be surprised that someone took half the oranges and made a lot of money on orange juice without giving anything back to the community.
My argument is, that if as a dev you are concerned for the community, stipulate a license that stipulates that the orange juice one makes of the free orange should also be free.
