This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

My favorite part is the installers.
I just installed a 2004 sierra game (Arcanum - very hard solo, def made for co-op) and the installer threw me back to the early noughties, and it was just lovely. That green progress bar and the wildly outdated game ads were hugely pleasing.
I love old keygen software and fucking 2000/xp era aesthetic so much
I need a second HDD for storage of the GOG installers I have and it's killing me that I can only run a handful of games at a time. Stupid small SSD. Currently have two installed, NMS and Zero Dawn and I'd love to finish the Witness at some point in this century. Ugh.
Are they compressible? You might have luck gzip or bzip2 compressing the .exe files.
Am not certain. I'm just holding fast with the two games I have - No Man's Sky just did another massive update and has a ton of new shit to do so I'm faffing around with the new space base building parts (too cool for words!) and enjoying the hell out of it for now.
I don't like how it insists on admin privileges
