EndreWhiteMane: Galaxy is now 'updating' The Black Mirror for me, and taking forever to do it.
It needs to download 1.6gb for the update, that's bigger than the entire standalone installer.
Really? For an update?
Galaxy is just a hairs breadth from being uninstalled permanently, I see no practical use for it.
I've just been disabling "automatic updates" on every game. Kind of a pain to have to do it game by game, but at least my games aren't being broken or stuck in crazy-long wait times to update.

Since I want standalone installers for backup anyway I might as well do it the old way and save both time, and a LOT of bandwidth.

Good point. I've been trying out the client for installing games and such, but then I find myself opening the browser to download backups of the actual installers, as I much prefer to have the backups on my external.

Mind sharing your coffee? This one-cup-at-a-time crap machine is driving me nuts. Amazon is taking forever to ship me one that will keep coffee in front of me all day long, as things should be. ;)

If you add to that that I don't use multiplayer and the inability to chat with 'non-friends' in Galaxy I really don't see it's usefulness. At least for me personally.

I'm struggling to myself, but hopeful that improvements will be made. Hell, I'd use it just to launch my games if it gave me the ease of having a consistent hotkey for taking screenshots in my GOG games. That's the only thing I like about Steam (well, aside from the absurd sales, though I never feel great about my purchases after those) ;)

What was the update for? I don't think I had any notification on my shelf.

Soccorro: Put an "An" in front of it and the word becomes politically correct and socially acceptable, as in "Anführer". It has the same meaning though.
So what does the "An" actually do to the word? I do not know German, and I am curious to know why adding an "An" would have the word mean the same, but be more acceptable?

ddickinson: Good morning, Agent! *big morning hug*

Sorry to hear you are not doing great today, but I hope the day will get better. How was your trip to space? In case you can't remember, here is a picture to remind you of your journey. :-)

Hahaha... Lovely! :-D ... oddly(?) enough, I was eating a spoonful of peanut butter when I looked at it! n__n
That put a nice smile on my face :-) *Thank you hug*
Ohhhh... she won't need me much longer, with all those stars :'-| I'll need to come up with another way to serve my supervisor/empress/chocolate provider.

It is just that Anführer is the correct translation and the correct word for leader.

Of course you were eating peanut butter, as the picture shows, it's always on your mind. I am glad it put a smile on your face. And don't worry, Owl will always need her loyal and obedient batman. :-)

*big happy hug*

moonshineshadow: It is just that Anführer is the correct translation and the correct word for leader.
So if Anführer is the correct translations, why is the word Führer used (or is that just something non-German people use)?

(Sorry for the silly questions, but I am just curious.)

Some about 'choppy sound' being fixed again.
