Yeah that sounds like what was explained to me

I needed to upgrade my modem because the isp capped the speed of docsis 3.0 modems to like 75Mbps. I remember being quite upset because I was previously getting 125Mbps service on the same modem. I seem to recall there was a quasi legit technical reason for it though.

It’s not, but it seems Argentina doesn’t think people should be allowed to own their phones.

THPS 1+2 (the HD remake) is excellent but they decided not to do a THPS3+4 remake. Presumably due to low numbers. BUT online is broken. What I mean by broken is that you basically can’t log in to the server if your console is connected to the internet through a router. As far as I know Activision never acknowledged that failure. Do you think this problem might have hurt sales/microtransaction revenue?

Shoes, but it also kinda sounded like cheese, or sometimes Jesus, which was really weird.

Are there even 57 year old boomers? 57 years old means born ~1967. Wouldn’t that be Gen X? I know generational divides aren’t rigid but I feel like 22 years after ww2 ended is not part of the post-war baby boom.

Poor gen x, forgotten again.

A lot of them were taken to Caribean sugar plantations, and Brazil.

BUT a lot (most?) of the people being taken to the American colonies came through the Caribbean. Since this chart shows departures from Africa that wouldn’t be shown, only transit directly to America

I bought it on PSN for a similar price to play with my son on my ps5. Yes it’s overpriced but we’ve had fun.

Okay, I think $80 Canadian for a case, psu, mobo, cpu, & ram is sounding pretty reasonable. I just don’t know of its enough processing power for the video stuff. But I guess if not I can upgrade the mobo/cpu or add a graphics card.

Thanks, that channel looks great.

Re offsite backup: Yes I don’t have so many family photos that it will be difficult/ expensive to store online. But I need to get them together first.

I don’t have a computer with a bluray drive, only laptops.

The US (and Canada, where I live) has an extradition treaty with Romania.

The US treaty does mention that

…neither Party shall refuse extradition based on the citizenship of the person sought.

But I haven’t read it in detail so that may or may not be relevant (the past I quoted is referring to a particular part of the treaty).

My understand is that typically the threshold for extradition is mutual criminality which I suppose is my answer to how US law applies itself outside US territories (because leaking state secrets is a crime in most countries). So I withdraw my inquiry.

If Romania declared Borat a state secret pirates could perhaps be extradited.

But also note that I don’t think Assange can be charged with treason, because he isn’t American.

One of the things I struggle to understand (maybe I should read more about it) is how US law has jurisdiction to stifle speech outside of US territories.

Like if Romania declared Borat a state secret, would every pirate on that swarm with a seed ratio above 0.00 be subject to extradition?

I have had issues with the wifi on mine. Frequently losing connection and having to restart the network adapter or reboot entirely.

Adjusting the wifi to avoid 802.11ax seems to have resolved the issue.

Good point. It’s kinda funny Sony fretting over MS abusing their position with respect to Call of Duty while they continuously publish PS5 exclusives.

Everyone Do Your Thing, Just Eat Doritos, Hershey’s, Green Mountain Dew & Happy Meals.

Not something I have any experience with but please allow me opine from my armchair:

the only problems I forsee with that approach are:

– any bends you might have to navigate – supporting/stabilizing the new pipe – sealing the top to prevent a down draft forming between them and pulling exhaust into your home

Maybe it’s because I’m a filthy casual console gamer, and only play mystery heroes but OW2 is fine. It’s my go to casual game fps.

I found my iptv provider by asking in the class restricted forum of one of the private trackers I use.
