... Servo appears to be missing a huge opportunity by not having an ansgty gumball machine mascot.
You've heard of doublethink, and doublespeak...
But what about antithink, and antispeak?
"You're talking a lot, but you're not saying anything!"
"Psycho Killer... qu'est que c'est?"
"Corpos".
Or, to use William Gibson's more current vernacular:
"Klepts".
In the mean time, while we wait for IP law to fix itself over the course of decades, or probably just never: I have physical copies of most of my games.
... on an SD card, that I bought, formatted, and moved files onto.
Steam lets you make game backups, GOG releases are basically portable... make a backup, compress it, put it on a backup drive.
... and thats all without my pirate hat and pegleg on.
... wha... what temperature would the inside of that bread loaf have to be, to actually be emmitting light?
Like... ~1000 degrees Farenheit?
Banking on it, you say?
Meat and dairy prices are only gonna go up and up, pizza is gonna become a luxury food item in not too long.

The Shoe Fitting Fluoroscope.
Stick your feet in, do a real time x ray, see how ... well your shoes fit.
According to Williams (1949), the machines generally employed a 50 kv X-ray tube operating at 3 to 8 milliamps. When you put your feet in a shoe fitting fluoroscope, you were effectively standing on top of the X-ray tube. The only “shielding” between your feet and the tube was a one mm thick aluminum filter.
Yeah... eventually phased or regulated out, due to ... a bit much direct X Ray exposure.
I have actually seen one of these in person, at a museum.
It'd been deactivated, of course, partially gutted.
For a kind of related anecdote:
Multiple victims of either the Hiroshima/Nagasaki nuclear detonations, as well as US military personnel at various nuclear tests...
Described that, even with their eyes closed, in some cases, even with protective eye equipment on...
When the detonation occurs, people held their hands in front of their faces, with their eyes closed, and basically could see xrays of their own arms and hands.
... It basically doesn't seem to have mattered what direction you are facing, if you are close enough to the detonation, for this effect to have been described.
... the 'temporarily embarassed millionaire' has 'aspirational' capital, in a fanciful, idealized future.
AKA, 'The American Dream'
Its a kind of faith-based magical thinking, delusion.
Which, as George Carlin let us all know, I think over a decade ago now...
... 'you have to be asleep, to believe.'
It's pretty bougie to know how to spell bourgeoisie, ngl.
Uh, in lieu of a mascot that I do not think they officially have:
(Author unknown, someone on Pinterest somewhere?)
Beyond a functionality/usability focus, check out that built in Oblivious DNS, DoH solution.
I mean, the outside layers are already burned to a carbonized black crisp.
I think that qualifies as toast.
