Thank you!

I mean officially. In the POSIX standard, it has officially been replaced. de facto standard as by users, it has remained dominant. We have just not been following POSIX as closely as we could (and we don't have any reason to).

Lead. Like the metal

Im really hoping, waiting, for a good dense long-term storage medium. It doesn't have to be fast, but large, cheap, and durable. I want a way to backup my plex library, or even, daily backups of documents and project files, and I don't want to think about them ever again.

Thanks! I'm kind of hoping to bring more awareness to not only this game but preservation in general. I'm holding an anxiety that we have limited time to potentially save this stuff 😅

But what exactly were all these people waiting for?... Did they really need Taylor to tell them this? I mean the answer is obviously yes but why?

It's wildly underpaid and the developers are highly highly skilled devs. They work in game dev because they want to, but the money isn't there. Most game developers are working at tiny studios hoping for a break.

"let's ask them"

There's just no way you could reasonably expect retail employees to verify games. There will need to be an automated system that is more difficult to bypass than it's worth, and that will likely be more expensive than it's worth.

We are getting to a point where there are fakes out there that are 100% identical to the real thing, and aren't all that cheap. It's an interesting situation.
