I am definitely going to share this story with the team. It really touched my heart and I'm sure it will theirs.

I remember when the title went on steam, it was a really big deal.

As for the light saber, lemme look. The box is currently in storage, in it's original box, neatly packed. I cherish those years.

I indeed did. I started working on it as QA and left the project as a software engineer. It was a really fun experience.

edit: I have a lightsaber replica to show for it. Lol

I worked in Star Wars: The Old Republic for ten years. It's still running and the story is really nice. EA sold it to Broadsword.

I checked MAM, it's not listed. They have a 2022 book by the same name, different author.

Omg same. I have been burnt so many times on "lifetime" scams, im done. I want to invest in your product, but part of that agreement is you doing what you say. I've had it!

I don't think they realized anything. I worked for them for 13 years. I think they are likely looking at a strategy to bring archived games with low hardware requirements to new platforms that can run them.

For example, I worked on NBA and Madden Mobile. These were ps3 games that were ported.

It's a good strategy. Why start from scratch when you can just port existing titles that had good sales.

It's nice because you're getting whole leaf tea, rather than tea dust in a tea bag. You can also buy as little or as much as you want and not get stuck with something you hate.

If you're that dumb, it's natural selection at that point.

The best part of that robots.txt is:

Reddit believes in an open internet, but not the misuse of public content.

Sure Jan.

Oh 100%. You can try kagi out on a free trial, which is what I'm on. It's nice because you get different search results that aren't constrained to the Google algorithm.

What I mean by this, I search for recipes a lot, on Google all the recipes are identical. When I use Kagi, they differ with the main search team I want.

I plan on using Kagi and subbing when I have the money.

It's better to pay for a product than be the product imho.

edit: for the recipes I mean on Google it's the same promoted main steam food network bs, etc every. Single. Time. With Kagi I feel like it's smaller people with recipes with more relevancy to the terms I type in.

You should check out loose leaf teas. I find them to be less expensive and better quality. I like a mail order catalog called Upton tea imports. You can get 100g of earl grey for 7 bucks which is 18 cents a cup. They also have a cool quarterly magazine.

There are lots of other places to get loose leaf teas, like the grocery store in the bulk goods section. You can get little paper filters or get a strainer. I don't like the little clampy ball one, but it's cheap. I prefer the pour over basket.

I, switched from Google FI because of lack of customer support and services that were getting less and less, but more costly and costly. I went to T-Mobile. Good service, much the same as Google fi is a first party mvno. Anyway I use a private dns. NextDns. T-Mobile had no clue what a dns was and the super had to Google it. They SEVERELY THROTTLE if you use next dns.

I HATE THAT. What do you use as privacy conscious individuals?

edit: not that! What
