We're working on promoting that Stem Bolt. It recently got an excellent recommendation from Admiral Janeway.
I was always a PC gamer, and think the old, often modded, independently run servers were much more fun than the soul-less matchmaking I see on most modern games.
Absolutely. If one was lucky enough to have a buddy with a server setup, that was by far the coolest option.
Indeed. Lactose tolerance is a powerful mutation. The rest of us should fear them for their superior genes.

There's a lot of gamers in this thread too young to remember how overloaded and miserable the free console game servers were.
Microsoft was like "chuck us like ~$5 per month and we will put up enough servers so the games are actually playable". At the time, it was the best deal available for console gaming.

Have you ever been to PowerShell Summit? It's the only nerd conference I've ever attended where only about half the attendees actually realized they are nerds at a nerd conference. I love the vibe. It's got style and pizzazz.
That said, the added entry for PowerShell would still be: "You are a nerd."
It's totally a matter of age. Kids these days have no idea how good they have it, and don't realize they need to get off my lawn. Shakes cain in the air /s
