Huh. That's actually just straight beautiful.

Legally, you might be right. I don't know; I'm not a lawyer and I don't care enough about this case to learn about it.

But I'm not talking about legalities here. I'm talking about calling this person's moral character into question because he decided to go this route, which I don't really agree with. I don't care that it is built on top of Rockstar's code. Everything is built on top of somebody else's code. Again, not talking legalities here; but I don't see a difference, and don't agree that Rockstar should even have a say in this. They should sit back and be thankful that somebody created whatever this is which might just sell them a few extra copies of the game through no investment of their own.

I don't like DRM. I don't like people charging money for what is built on top of FOSS. But I also think it's the creators' right to choose how they distribute their work. /shrug

Eh, it's his code, his work. I believe he's within his rights to decide how he's compensated.

I personally think this method is a bad idea but then again I don't pay this game and don't even know what the mod does. Maybe it's the second coming or whatever and he knows his business more than I though. Either way, it's his right.

Remote-only companies existed before, during, and continue existing after COVID. And those companies have new people as well. Perhaps you're right and that it's harder to ask questions on slack as a newbie (although I believe it's completely up to personal taste) but is that worth all the benefits of remote work?

I believe it's not.

Unplayable mess? I never said that. However, more than a few people had game-breaking bugs in Skyrim and had to restart or hope they had a save from far enough back.

Obviously Skyrim was playable enough since it was an immediate critical success. I can't really speak for fallout 4 since I never played it and didn't bother following the news for it.

That being said, there are memes older than some people on lemmy equating Bethesda and bugs. They've earned their reputation, but good and bad.

That's also why you encrypt your drives. The average enterprise figured out how to let somebody work from an airport long ago. It's really not a huge deal.

I think you've already found a better way, but I'll answer your original question too.

You mention that the party members have been removed from the party node. I believe signals are tied to a node, so as soon as they're freed or otherwise removed, that signal listener is already disconnected. Hence the error you're getting.

That's fair, I didn't specify DRM-free. Still probably better than buying through Amazon.

But I'd prefer to use my own ebook reader.

I've been using Firefox since before it was named Firefox and I never knew I could do this. This is amazing.
