Rather US centric view there. What'll happen to the majority of the world's population?

Nothing will prevent him from wiping your drive if he has physical access to your device. Physical access access to internal storage. A locked case to stop tampering with drives and and a password protected BIOS/UEFI with a boot order that skips removable media should prevent OS installation (as long as your motherboard doesn’t have a reset button on the back faceplate too).

GOG doesn’t work on consoles. Jussayin not everyone wants to maintian a PC so they can game…

Correct, I owned the license to it. It wasn’t revokable though.

You’re hallucinating. I never claimed to want HA servers or claim ownership of data. If I pay for ownership of a license, I just want it to be permanent. Non-revokable. I don’t care how it is delivered. This is why I use Serif’s Affinity applications, not Adobe’s etc.

Zorin IS is derived from Ubuntu - 99% of Ubuntu’s guide will work with it.

I dont use ZorinOS. But I can use google.

I think in terms of the subscriber access to Xbox GamePass or PlayStation Plus, this is valid. But not for game purchases. The store purchases have always been about buying a game. If I go to Amazon and buy a thing, it gets shipped to my house and I own it - the experience of adding an item to a cart, viewing the cart, and checking out are the same across game stores, for online and brick and mortar, whether digital and physical goods are being purchased. If I don’t own the item I am buying on the PlayStation store, why the hell am I paying a premium for it? I thought it was because I will always be able to play that game without having to worry about the disc getting scratched and in both cases I would own the item.

That is a bullshit arguement. “You dont own the hardware so you dont deserve to own the games” - I do own the hardware… I can’t update/upgrade it the same way I do my PC, but I still own it.
