You are part of an elite squad who freeze time to move near cover and get shot in the head.
I guess they didn't play their own game, because there are obvious flaws. This would have been more fun if they got rid of the whole moving around like an RPG. Like the old X-COM ga-- oh wait, the old games are just better. Why was this game made?
Properly titled The Bureau: XCOM Declassified

Based on Chrome's open-source components (Chromium), but with real-browser functionality added.
Spectacular. It has all the pieces missing from Chrome. I'd strongly consider switching to it from Pale Moon if it had proper ScrapBook X support.

Chocolatey: babun

A customized Cygwin for Linux on Windows: Zsh, Bash, git and other Linux software, all pre-configured.
Can install other software provided by Cygwin.
My configuration specific to Babun is currently scattered throughout my git repository, just findinall Babun (using my findinall() )

An amazing (and amazingly-expensive) DVD ripper. Can work with other disks.
I've used this to back up my old DVD discs into .iso files.

Spiderman, but with guns.
I get that this has some interesting core gameplay, but it's just not fun because the controls are too awkward.

Like scrabble with words, assemble phrases to do varying degrees of insult-damage.
This definitely should appeal to some people, but it doesn't appeal to me. I think this would be especially attractive to people with an Android phone.

An operating system most notably on mobile phones, but also found on media boxes.
Fundamentally flawed - It is tethered to Google in as many ways as they've made possible. From a time server, to internet traffic compression. From google play requiring an account requiring your verified phone number. From hoops to download and install software from their store. It's fucking awful.

Be a gang member, run around in a sandbox world and shoot stuff, I guess.
It's alright.
Note that the original Saints Row - (2006 game) was only released for the Xbox 360.
- This is for a thing to do with software.

Extremely flexible, with the ability to provide a specific date/time, number of hours, minutes and seconds, etc.
