Won't your VPS promptly be canceled if it starts distributing copyrighted content without a license?

That might just be an Inscryption/Wine compatibility problem. You should check maybe ProtonDB or WineHQ for the game to see if this is a known problem or if there is a particular Wine or Proton version you need to use or a particular library or setting that is needed to make sound work on Linux for the Windows version of this particular game.

Very strong Law of the Excluded Mallard vibes here.

Aren't you forgetting Goduck's Incompleteness Theorem?

True. But then you have to physically show up wherever, and know how to do it right.

Does ActivityPub not have retry with back off like email? Mail will try to be delivered for a few days before the sender gives up.

Lawsuits don't generally just throw themselves out. You have to pay a lawyer to show up and ask the judge to throw out the lawsuit on account of the fact that you don't host the thing, or whatever the reason is.

Judges don't go out and do research; if one side's lawyer says Whirlybird runs The Pirate Bay out of their kitchen and the other side's lawyer isn't there, then the court is going to proceed as though that is at least plausible.

I actually kind of like the error handling. Code should explain why something was a problem, not just where it was a problem. You get a huge string of "couldn't foobar the baz: target baz was not greebleable: no greeble provider named fizzbuzz", and while the strings are long as hell they are much better explanations for a problem than a stack trace is.

Because you want to know if the first half of the code works at all before you write the whole second half.

Finding all the bits that will be used by the second half and changing the declarations to just expressions is a bunch of extra work. As is adding placeholder code to use the declared variables.

They don't try to make it difficult, but they make code changes that make it clear they have no concern for anyone who might be trying to use the engine anywhere other than in a retail build of Firefox, without providing things like deprecation warnings or upgrade paths.
