Not gonna lie… You had me there at the beginning!
Oooo not all the mods sir. Not all of them…
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Doom is the best game ever made.
Dang even your cable box is classic!
It was around 2000 when I helped my parents build a computer from a shop in town. It was an AMD k6 with 512mb of ram and a voodoo3. I used that computer for years and years.
My childhood! Though I was more of a MechWarrior 2 guy.
Man. That sounds like a fun build.
I consider this kinda like the wild West era of computer building. There wasn’t a lot of standardization like there is now and you really have to know how to handle the software because the support wasn’t really there.
Ya… I just sang most Hurt in my inner voice with our moving my lips or tongue. 🤷
Well, to be fair from an outside perspective everything is technically outdoors.
I’ve often argued that og doom is the best game ever made specifically because of the custom WAD community.
Piracy has changed so much. Back when people were making the transition from p2p to torrents there was very little if any streaming sites.
Nowadays if you sneeze hard enough you’re bound to spray down some big name streaming service.
Now there are even whole front ends that allow you to stream whatever you want anytime you want even on a little, but very powerful handheld computer.
I would say that 12% is more on the low end. If you were to factor in ad blocking and the various front ends I mentioned earlier I could see that number going up much higher.
What’s more crazy is that the very ISPs that track all of our information and sell to the highest better are the same ones sending us letters and emails when we use torrents that they’ll shut off our services if we continue to pirate movies and music.
Hypocrisy at its finest.
The issue was Bruce Willis at the time was more or less regarded as a comedy star as his last several movies were romantic comedy’s.
No one really expected this movie or knew how to approach it.
And the last thing you want is a confused movie critic with a masters in Spanish literature trying to figure out if the movie was good or not!
Tell you what, I don’t really care either way. I currently have three separate streaming services. Netflix, Disney and Amazon. Including a patreon monthly subscription and one only fans I really like for a total of five.
However I want to watch The Big Bang Theory. I’m just not willing to subscribe to yet another unaffiliated streaming service for one TV show!
Just for the sake of organization and convenience I travel the high seas for the show I want to watch!
It’s not that I don’t necessarily want to pay or I want to steal the intellectual property it’s just that there’s no significant incentive for me to watch the Big bang theory outside of the way that I’m currently going to acquire it.
Wow.
It really bothers me that you’ve somehow interpreted and asserted a relationship with my friend that you have no way of knowing.
But I will entertain your naive ignorance for a moment. This friend that I’m talking about, we’ve been friends for over 20 years he gives me as much crap as I give him and our relationship is better for it.
I have literally told him that he’s acting like an idiot for using these things that are actively monitoring everything that he does. His privacy is being systematically invaded and he doesn’t care.
The reason he doesn’t care is because he likes the stuff that he uses because it’s fast and he claims there’s little lag. Personally I think this is nothing more than an excuse for being lazy by not going through the steps of setting up his software so it won’t be invading his privacy (as much).
At no point did I pressure him to change or attempt to persuade him to get an Android or to use Linux or anything else he is perfectly free to use whatever he feels is comfortable.
Nevertheless it’s just a cop out he is acting stupid by using all of this stuff that infiltrates his privacy.
It’s okay to be accepting of people and to be their friend and to also call them on their bullshit. If their feelings are hurt and it strains the relationship then its probably not a good friendship.
I mean… Ya. I fully agree. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s a copout.
I have a friend that just refuses to use anything but chrome, refuses to use any kind of adblock and will only use an iPhone.
I don’t get it. I’ve asked him to explain but he just keeps saying “it’s personal preference” which is such a massive copout.
Arrrr maty
Oil in Antarctica? Hold on to your shorts boys, America is sending all the freedom!
