Assuming they don't own them already as a sort of pressure valve. Yeah I'm getting that cynical.

A little bit better controls and stuff too, but yeah, the story, characters, unit customization, etc. was all top-notch.

You mean Civilization: Call to Power. The unit was called the Eco Ranger. And they did make a sequel to it, called Call to Power 2. In some ways it was better, some worse. That being said, CTP1 is my favorite civ of all time (not counting SMAC). They should definitely make another sequel if they can keep the stuff that made it great. Kills me that I can't get a modern working version of the original somewhere.

Classic Scylla and Charybdis. Good luck on your odyssey.

I hadn't even noticed. Wow, has it been that long already?

The people that have problems with Windows and have to ask for help, shouldn't be using Linux because it'll confuse the poor souls even further.

My mother got so fed up with her windows problems that she asked me to put Linux on her computer. While she still had problems after that, she found them manageable and was happy with it ever since.

The people that know exactly how to configure and use Windows with zero problems have no need to use Linux

Nobody has zero problems with either os. The difference is whether you want to deal with problems that are just technical, or due to incompetence and profit motive.

That was amazing. Wow. I mean, I knew that google was bad but, damn.

I was surprised to learn recently that people are still making new screen savers for it.

Np. I wish I had known about this stuff before but not a big deal. It's just great how this game keeps improving.

Not move exactly, but you can "duplicate" your last current ship and multi-tool between your saves going into and coming out of the expedition. No freighters though. So just make sure that the ship and MT you want to have access to "on the other side" is the one that is currently selected before you go to the expedition terminal. They will have all the tech, but your ship's cargo won't be duplicated. You can move cargo though in a different part of the terminal.

Oh I get it from an artistic perspective, just seems funny from a logical one, like lots of art. It's why I mentioned Corey Hart. :)

In fact, one could even read into it artistically, that the contrast is deliberate. Something about optimism, or fashion, maybe just tradition, etc.
