Do you know of any place to see which states specifically?

Yeah, it’s possible OpenTTD is only scared of Atari on the basis that OpenTTD doens’t have the resources to fight even a completely spurious case.

Thank you for your solidarity with us Americans. I don’t live in California, but I don’t think it’s less likely to affect me by virtue of not living in California.

Without knowing what distro you’re on, it probably involves switching distros.

Does Atari have any legal leg to stand on? My only guess as to why they’d have any legal right to force OpenTTD off of Steam is that OpenTTD still uses original Transport Tycoon graphics and/or text, or at least a derivative work thereof. It doesn’t seem like OpenTTD copied any of Transport Tycoon’s code, so it must be other stuff like graphics or text.

I love how the first thing they brag about is that you can put the status bar on any edge of the screen – a feature that Microsoft previously took away.

But every day, though? Even when I kindof don’t even want to? Or else everything’s shitty?

No one’s keeping you here.

The bare feet are absolute genius as a feature of the costume, but they also add insult to injury.

Just that I wouldn’t have bought a WiiU if I wasn’t misled to believe there was going to be a WiiU-exclusive Zelda game. It was a bait-and-switch.

It’s surprising to me how many gamers out there believe deep in their bones that Nintendo is complete assholes while being completely blind to how just-as-evil Microsoft and Sony are in their console dealings.

All three can be (and are) simultaneously evil, if different flavors. Nintendo’s litigious. Microsoft’s got all the bullshit in the OP. And Sony does that thing where they sell you a disk but what’s on the disk doesn’t work and they make you download the whole game after you put the disk in your system.

(Bonus: Nintendo marketed BotW – though not by name – as a WiiU exclusive title before they even released the WiiU; and then they proceeded to dual-release it for WiiU and Switch. I’m still salty about that. Microsoft cut corners, causing the red ring of death thing. And Sony did that thing with the PS3 where they announced they’d support Linux and reneged after selling it to people. And all these examples are just what I know off the top of my head. And I’ve never had any Microsoft or Sony systems except the XBox 360 and PS2, both way after they were EOL.)

The only way I can imagine “preparing” for nuclear war:

Stop. Giving. Them. Ideas.

(Kidding. Kindof.)

I’d be willing to try a President Pit Viper or a King Komodo. Humans in charge certainly hasn’t been working out.

(Ok, a pit viper isn’t a “lizard”, but I couldn’t think of a lizard that starts with “p”, so I went with another sort of reptile.)

I’m really happy with my Pixel 3a. (And I think the Pixel 3a XL is just as well supported by FLOSS ROMs but with a bigger screen.) It mostly checks all the boxes you had in your list, and I think it’s probably the only real option you’re going to find in that price range.

I ran Lineage for a good while, but I’ve switched to Ubuntu Touch more recently. It’s incredibly well supported by both operating systems and just from what I’ve seen, most FLOSS ROMs tend to support it. (One exception I know of is PostmarketOS, which last I heard didn’t support the 3a very well at all.) Being honest, Ubuntu Touch’s app availability is pretty abysmal. Writing apps for Ubuntu Touch seems more accessible than for Android, though (especially now with the bullshit that they’ve pulled with sideloading restrictions.)

One caveat: If you’re looking for 100% FLOSS, probably the 3a isn’t what you want. Even Ubuntu Touch uses a bunch of proprietary driver blobs. But again, the options for fully FLOSS-compatible phones seem pretty pricey.

Oh. Jesus. Yeah, you’re right. -.-
