What exactly is the point of this? By buying foreign products, you pay the US government in whatever import tariff as part of the cost. I'd rather support domestic American businesses over the US government.

It should only be a subscription if there is a legitimate cloud service being utilized. Otherwise, it should just be "pay for 1 copy."
Luckily on desktop there's Kdenlive for light to moderate stuff and DaVinci Resolve for moderate to heavy stuff.
On phones, they all suck and demand subscriptions at an appreciable fraction of actual professional video editing software for a crappy feature set, all with the inconvenience of having very little screen real estate for editing options.
I just don't really like the taste, so about 1 per week in my fried rice.
Not really. The one exception I made in recent times was Cities Skylines 2 after I had 400+ hours in the original, and that was only due to a 30% off sale days before release. Though I wouldn't recommend it for most, I still have 42 good hours in it so it was worth my money.
Otherwise I'm a very patient gamer.
I stand corrected. Still though, it shows that they at least wanted to have this happen, which breaks my trust in them.
Full price EA games with F2P-style microtransactions and ads
And this isn't useless, but I can't believe that to rent Photoshop for $20/mo, your creative projects are not your IP...
It's definitely overrated. Where I live a solid meal will set you back $12-$14, and it's always super crowded and hence slow. Instead, I can just walk a few minutes, and get better chicken for cheaper ($10-$12) and faster at the local place.
I'm surprised they have this! I felt like Nintendo would be the last company to do this kind of thing.
...
Well I should've seen this coming. You need a Nintendo online subscription to do anything in the app. Still cool that they have this at all.
Is this an official app that I can download?
I've completed my Vulcanus "mega"base (so just 140spm of red, green, blue, purple, and yellow science), and got Gleba to a state I was happy with. I was consistently making agriculture science and the materials to launch a rocket out of it, and had a logistics system in place to expand the base with bots. I even designed a faster, more fuel-efficient space platform specifically to transfer the agriculture science to Nauvis.
Since walls apparently don't work I had the weird idea of defending my base with artillery, because I haven't unlocked any other fancy military stuff yet.
I then went to Fulgora and am currently trying to figure out its entire system. Unfortunately the islands are too far apart for the big electric poles to reach, even with rare quality.
Then, out of nowhere, a medium stomper decided to wreck half of my Gleba base, even though the spores never reached any of the nests. It conveniently avoided the few sections with gun turrets like the Pentapod egg breeding section. I frantically tried to destroy it with artillery, but I kept missing until it decided to just walk around in circles next to my yumako mash processing section. After a few hits, it was dead, but so was my Gleba base. It fragmented both my power and my logistics system, so I'll need to manually go back to Gleba to fix everything.
Same here. It kick-started my hatred of YouTube, and they continued to make poor decision after poor decision.
I could be exploring all the mechanics that Fulgora and Gleba have to offer. I've researched both planets and have a spaceship ready to take me there in a couple minutes. But nooooo... I instead want to utilize the insane scale of everything on Vulcanus to build rail networks to bring my SPM to the moon!
First, I want red, green, blue, and purple science to get unlimited mining productivity! But yellow science for enhanced military power sounds nice for medium demolishers, behemoth biters, and the Gleba enemies... And since I already have yellow science, I can easily expand to space science... And wait, I also can make Metallurgic science as well!
Hi! SuperSpruce here! I wanted to give occasional progress updates of my Factorio: Space Age base, so here it is! I would've posted this on Reddit instead of here if it wasn't for Reddit's greed starting in 2023. Note that I'm not using any mods here, even QoL.
The start was quite poor, due to the dry climate, no visible chokepoints, and spaced out resources. The only good thing was a small oil patch nearby. The biters were a constant threat in the early game, so I researched military and gun turrets before automation, purposely delayed scaling up as to keep power consumption low, and rushed efficiency modules and solar power. My weapon progression has gone: SMG with yellow ammo, SMG with red ammo, flamethrower, SMG+defender capsules, and now tank + defender capsules.
Here's the whole base. Yes, I am naming my train stations after motorcycles, deal with it.
.
My 1-4 train system uses what amounts to a giant roundabout with an exit for each major resource in the main bus, with buffers to prevent traffic jams. I only have about 5 trains running currently, but I tremble at the thought of traffic jams. That's why I plan to build a train "interstate highway" in the future. Outside of the main base, it turns into 2-lane "rural tracks."
Here's the main base with the main bus:
Fun fact: The belts are all yellow belts except for 3 cases where I needed more underground length where I begrudgingly use red undergrounds.
And finally, here's my sad 2nd attempt at a space base:
My next goal is to go to Vulcanus for the cliff explosives and more powerful military options. But I first need to scale up steel...
Give me your thoughts, but don't spoil anything!
It's been a good 3500 miles with the GZ250, but I've been itching for more power and better cornering potential. Also, I somehow spent $1000 in maintenance in 10 months for a "beginner" bike. So, I sold my GZ250 to buy this crazy motorcycle. I always wanted a high-revving inline-3 engine, and this bike was a good deal.
What a difference it is! I went from being slower than 99% of cars on the road to faster than 99% of cars on the road. That and the difference in ergonomics make it feel like my first time riding again because I feel like a noob again.
It pulls so crazy hard in lower gears that I don't think I've ever gave it full throttle below 4th gear, and it sounds amazing doing so. And whenever I take a corner, I consistently underestimate just how much I can lean, so I go almost unsatisfyingly slow, and the bike seems to say, "c'mon, chicken. Believe in me. You could've gone way faster than that." I hope to do a track day to remedy this mismatch between me and my motorcycle.
I'm not sure if this is the best community to post in, but I just bought a used computer and slotted in an RX480 as the GPU. I installed KDE Neon 5.27 on it, and it worked flawlessly for 2 days.
Then, even though it was working earlier today, it slept and then would not wake up. So I turned off the power and turned it back on again, and was greeted with this error screen:
The only prior error message I'd gotten from the system was when I tried to install wine for one application, it told me some packages weren't up to date, without a way to fix it. I can enter the BIOS just fine.
What is going on? How do I fix this?

This is the best advertisement for Victoria 3 (or other similar games). Now I want to get a game like this and experiment with messing with the economy.
