Mentioning @[email protected] here to address you both in your similar corrections rather than duplicate my reply: I stand corrected.

I see that I had misconstrued my personal misgivings with the penalties of failing to pay with a lack of legal ownership.

It still feels off, precarious, to describe it as ownership to me, but I recognize what you're both saying regarding the legal standing of it all.

hello frog, that is sad to hear, have you tried calling doompost?

Own as in mortgages/loans paid off, I take it? That's the slight distinction I'm thinking of with expensive items that typically can't be bought outright. It's not wholly owned until mortgage/loan is paid off, which you kinda nod towards with your last sentence.

In the vein of houses and cars, yeah. I should get in a better habit of elaborating on ambiguous terms in the body, only haven't as I've mixed experience with people skipping over those.

How does one account for maintenance costs with this view? Even barring taxes, you may have to pay for upkeep either in materials or contracting out services to assist in maintenance.

Thanks for this info! I was unaware of this given how rarely it's mentioned.

 

Wouldn't leasing or renting be more accurate depending on what's involved and the circumstances?

How might the "Aegio" in Aegiomon be pronounced?

Perhaps malleerphobia? Or if being formal-ish, anaspectaphobia?

Space-based has me interested, I'll give it a look!

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll have to give it a try.

Oh, no offline version I take it? 😔

 

I'm specifically interested in this one-on-one style, apart from roguelike/RPG deckbuilding games.

Those are fun too, but a different style.

 

Regardless of how silly the word may seem, please share it! Maybe they can make their way into people's vocab!

 

Today some people evaluate games based on their length (e.g. 30+hours), map size (e.g. 40-60 sq. km), etc., so it made me wonder what metrics people may have used for arcade games.

 

Besides, y'know, all seating furniture being beanbag chairs.

 

Instances of any fediverse software, to be clear.
