[Help] Find the title of a time-stop manga (programming.dev)

Alright, bear with me since it has been a very long time and I can't get it out of my head. I can't for the live of me find what the title is. My memory may also be jumbled and mixed up so apologies in advance. Heck, I even forgot if this is anime or not, hentai or not and hesitate to ask here, but I think it's probably a manga and not a hentai either. I really wanted to read it again.

All I remember is:

The world time is stopped but the time for the characters is not stopped (they still grow old)
The ending is somewhat bittersweet as it follows a scene on the beach/sea view with a flock of birds that was once time-stopped, resumed flapping indicating that time has returned to normal
The power to stop the time is prolonged by each use (or was it their proximity?)
I forgot how both characters meet and this may come from other manga, but I remember it was also time-stop on a busy street and they notice each can still move

There aren't enough swear-words in the English language, so now I'll have to call you perkeleen vittupää just to express my disgust and frustration with this crap.

Digital piracy is not stealing since nothing has been lost. In fact, something was duplicated. So the term stealing is not appropriate and should not be used to describe it. Copying / duplicating copyrighted material without permission is more appropriate. Also, distributing copyrighted material without permission can be used. But not stealing, no. Even stealing potential profit is a no or we were going to have to start punishing potential crime.

$843 million lawsuit against Valve already has its own website: "The Steam Claim" accuses the biggest store in PC gaming of "overcharging" players by bitfucker in c/[email protected]

I'll reiterate here that I think it would be funny to see steam actually lowering their cut to 20-10% or something and the mass migrations of developers from other competing stores to steam, and finally making the other store even more insignificant. That's what they want isn't it? And even more funny when after the changes are applied there is no difference in price because after all, publishers get more money for free, why should they lower their profit? If anything, when the policy is reversed/back to when it was, we will only see an increase in game price lol.

Damn, I thought for some unknown ungodly reason Valve implemented something like game pass for Proton.

But the publisher who published it should be liable too. Wtf is their job then? Parasiting off of public funded research?

Until you realize that the energy requirement is also different. Land transport in general is very inefficient. Ship is in fact one of the most energy efficient means of transport.

The US government can do the same, and they do bailouts for companies often too. Isn't that also meddling in the free market? Why didn't the US government incentivize EV then?

(Help) Name of (sandbox?) game set on space? (Found: Starsector) (programming.dev)

So I usually browse the internet at random and sometimes stumble upon some interesting games. Today as I was going to sleep however, I remember I saw a game that I cannot for the life of me find the name again. Not even in my search history (as I regularly wipe those). Can anyone help me find it again? Here is what I know:

I didn't find it from steam. And if I remember it correctly, the developer doesn't publish it there either.
The game website is quite "old" IMHO. Their website is styled like space with galaxy and stuff.
The game features advertised on the very front page is freedom to become anything. Either a trader or even space mercenary
I remember the screenshot of the game UI is like stellaris, with a star view, ship control and such
I don't really remember if the game is online only or not. But most likely not

I know that seems very generic but I am really hyper focused on finding it and failing. I think I also found the game by recommendation somewhere on lemmy.

Edit: It is Starsector

Program documentation first, Arch Wiki second, Gentoo third, surfing the web as a last resort, then ask the forum in the same order. The problem is that there is no universal way to log stuff to so I can't really point out where to look.
