All my homies hate fandom and use UFOpaedia

Fair enough. It was the top result on a quick qwant search. I didn't put any more thought onto it than that

Fun fact here in the UK they game was actually called ufo enemy unknown

There's a browser extension that will automatically redirect you to a non-fandom wiki and can even replace the results from searches.

If no alternative exists, it takes you to a breezewiki mirror.

Highly recommended! It's called "Indie Wiki Buddy"

I was gonna say, when I was growing up my dad pirated that game for me and my brother by downloading it from a BBS. We thought it was just called "UFO Enemy Unknown". Then later XCOM 2 came out and we were like "wtf is an XCOM"?

Game's still dope as hell btw.

OP had 90% chance to include that game in the meme.

Is that like, actually usable instance?

Clicking continue on content warning does nothing. Go back starts a 5 second countdown that then proceeds into negative numbers.

𝕏 is one character but four UTF-8 bytes. Alternatively, there are non-space characters that render as blank, such as ⠀.

Do you prefer X11 or X4?

BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz · 11 pts · 1y

X4 needs X11 on linux

I expected it to older but according to the Wikipedia article it initially released in 2004.
