Check out Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harrari. It's my pick for the best non-fiction book and after reading it I found A Short History of Nearly Everything suggested as a similar read.

It's a bit more dry than Bill Bryson's work but a lot more informative. I listened to the audio book which was brilliant but would probably find it a lot harder to read.

It goes over the history of humans from around 70,000 years ago until current day. I would recommend everyone read this book to give them perspective on the things we find important and the rules we collectively chose to follow.

This is my point. The person I replied to said OP shouldn't expect more than what they got. I pointed out this same business model has worked for decades so OP shouldn't have expected the outcome of a bricked device.

You'd be shocked to hear that people purchase radios for over $100 to listen to music they don't own.

Honestly it's just a meme. We have deadly snakes and spiders but the death count each year is like single digits. They also just keep to themselves and will only attack if you're a dickhead. Crocodile and shark attacks too are rare. Kangaroos will only fight you if you walk up to one swinging.

Most fear of Australian animals comes from residents of NA but I'd rather my Aussie creatures than the NA bears, wild cats, wolves, moose (meese?) Etc.

Bowie is mine too. I've never been more affected by a celebrity death. I still get a lump in my throat when listening to his music, it was truly an art form of its own.

This community has like 30 views a month. Do you really think it's necessary to create separate instances for specific Fallout games at this point?

Good Old Games. They sell lots of old PC games that you can't find anywhere else and since many old games can't run in modern architecture, they will usually package the games up in a way that they can run without you having to run your own emulators or virtual machines.

They also sell modern games and have their own game library software similar to Steam except unlike Steam it is DRM free.

Surely rolling my eyes and sighing is a better option.
