That's a great point, thanks for adding it!

Because I'm not really that invested. The Steam launch will have the effect of making me check it out, so I guess that will at least work as intended.

I was really excited about this game when I first heard about it, right up until I learned it was Ubisoft. Their involvement makes me pretty dubious, so I'll wait and see how hard they crank the monetization handle, and also what the reviews look like.

I've frequently not been on boats!

I'm not sure what you mean; Google doesn't have anything to do with LocalSend, do they?

In a similar vein, "not the sharpest spoon in the drawer"

If you haven't, you might want to read Patrick O'Brien's Aubrey/Maturin series, or at least to peruse this list from Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AubreyMaturinSeries/comments/4ak12q/which_its_a_prodigious_great_list_of_aubreys/

Yup, my Lemur has completely lost one hinge; I've actually got the case duct taped together at this point. Their customer support was really bad when i contacted them about it; they tried to get me to agree to charges before they even told me what they were charging me for: it took me days of escalation to get the answer that they were going to ship me a part but had no instructions or videos for installation and didn't recommend end users do it. I'm actually looking at Framework now instead; I'm pretty done with System 76 at this point.

Sure, but to me that means the latest information is that AI assistants help produce insecure code. If someone wants to perform a study with more recent models to show that's no longer the case, I'll revisit my opinion. Until then, I'm assuming that the study holds true. We can't do security based on "it's probably fine now."
