We’re on a decentralized message board that praises Linux and Self Hosting. We’re not the target market for this stuff. My mother-in-law? She buys every damn Alibaba drop shipped trinket that promises whatever from a Facebook ad. My wife is constantly suckered into stuff advertised on Instagram.

I find this one funny because we only see that icon on the device that has replaced that style phone, yet the device looks nothing like that

The bigger issue is this game is 15 years old now. Modern hardware should crush this.

Only limitations seem to be my will to learn new stuff. I’m sure all this could be written in Python or something but I’m not a programmer.

I’ve been a programmer for 20 years. 100% of my personal projects are vibe coded now. Just throw AI at the code.

Also you can buy a lifetime pass which no one offers anymore. I was lucky and got it 10 years ago but it’s probably the software I’ve used the most in that time.

Not just public events but private ones too. I just invited 30 people to an event this month. There’s a lot of people in there that I don’t contact enough on a regular basis to get their email. It’s really tough to put something like this together without Facebook these days

I found a bakery in town that does subs. You can get a brisket sub for the same price as subway with fresh bread and ingredients and the bread is wider than the skinny subway loaves so you get more overall

This is Garry Newman, he made Garry’s Mod. He’s not saying he’s playing Fortnite, he’s probably getting told about it because of his proximity to the tools that made the video in the first place

I watch a lot of movies, usually around 150+ per year. Apple offers one newish movie as the .99 rental per week which I’m happy to pay for but when they come asking for $25 for a digital rental for the rest of the new stuff… Get the fuck outta here.

It’s crazy that I can subscribe to Spotify and get virtually the entire history of music but video services have completely fractured the model into tiny shards. I will continue to watch my 150+ movies a year whether the studios want to offer a reasonable price or not.

Klaymens Theme is an all time banger

I’ve decided not to vote at all in this US election. I know my vote won’t do anything on account of being Canadian.

Brown and dark was the Xbox 360 era. We’re in a post Fortnite, Rocket League, Minecart world now. The trend now is tons of color but in a way that I’m starting to get a little tired of everything looking like the same purple.

Did you first invent the universe?

I’ve lived in a few places in Canada and I’ve never heard of paying for trash pickup, it’s just a city service.

It’s not genetic, that implies no fault. This is careful programming.

And if you have Plex integrated with Overseerr, all you do is add something to your Plex watchlist, wait a little bit, then it’s movie time

“Cheeseburgers with large breasts, extra meaty, huge buns, wearing a strap on, lettuce hanging out the side, 8k, flash photography, Terry Richardson, Ronald McDonald”

The lawsuit is 5 billion, whatever they settled for is going to be a lot less.

I mean it really was a single wave. V4 or whatever version it was fundamentally changed the way Digg worked in a big way overnight. It wasn’t even the same thing anymore. Sure there were some holdovers but it’s tough to compare the two like this.

With the exception of third party apps, Reddit still more or less works the same for the average user as it has forever.

Good god, finally. I can’t believe this wasn’t an option from the start.
