Tell the family to stop being cheap bastards and to pay their damn cell phone bills already, so that you don’t have to keep using that Meta-owned crap.

Just buy a mosquito net and an Off® candle like the rest of us do.

If you were raised by Christian fundamentalists (the kind who believed that church was evil), then you also heard it in 1994, and twice in 2011. Two straight years of world-ending predictions. It was fatiguing.

Because it adds nothing to the discussion

The MG3620 is like $70 and has wifi. Accepts refilled cartridges too and will print without whining, regardless of what color ink is out. It does everything I need a printer/scanner combo to do without any extra BS. Even mobile printing is a straightforward, app-free process.

Firefox is Netscape; this makes no sense and shouldn’t exist.

An hour? How do you make it that far? If I can’t pick it up within 10 minutes, I’m not learning that skill.

Mario Kart 64 and F-Zero X are far superior to both. Never got into the originals. The flatness of Mode 7 was a major turnoff for me as a kid in the 90s. So I waited for 3D on consoles to get better and look more like the 3D I’ve seen on PCs and in the arcade, before I begged my parents for a console for Christmas.

Disagree. It didn’t have rumble. That reason alone is why I always stuck with the wired controllers.

Assuming this is government funded, I’d be more than happy to spend a couple of years at such a place. I need to take a break from reality and not worry about bills for a bit.

Not if I can help it.

I’ve managed to filter out most of the cars hate from my feed. You can take my 350Z from my cold, dead hands, once I inevitably get into a fatal accident on the highway.

Because I’ve never used such a website before and thought I’d give it a try.

Finally got around to signing up to Bluesky after avoiding Twitter for almost two decades and, well…I don’t get it. The entire thing is basically just Shower Thoughts, Shower Thoughts featuring politics, and the occasional picture of a cat… That’s it? Really? It’s like a more boring version of Lemmy and Imgur. Please explain what I’m missing here cause I lost all interest after about 30 minutes on the site.

It smells like a burning rope that was sprayed by a skunk. You’ve smelled it before without even realizing it. It’s everywhere.

Everything is available for streaming when you have Stremio.

Same, but for me a lot of it has to do with ADHD-induced anxiety. It’s not always that I forgot you exist; but simply that it’s been too long now, so it would be weird and awkward if I tried to re-enter your life again. So it’s best to just stay away.

I’ve ghosted every job I’ve held (except one) for the same reason: can’t deal with the anxiety of putting in my two weeks, so when I’m done with a job I just silently walk away without saying a thing to anyone and never come back.

Fallout: London is pretty decent. It may be a mod, but it plays like a proper Fallout title. Enjoy that in the meantime. It won’t completely fill the void but it’s better than nothing.

Prove it.

APUs obviously weren’t a thing yet, and it was common knowledge back then that contemporary iGPUs were complete and utter trash. I mean they were so weak that you couldn’t even play HD video or even enable some of XP’s very basic graphical effects with most integrated graphics.

Everyone knew that you needed a dedicated graphics card back then, so you can and should in fact put some blame on the consumer for being dumb enough to buy a PC without one, regardless of what the sticker said. I mean I was a teenager back then and even still I knew better. The blame goes both ways.

Oh okay, like that feature I used to use in RES for reddit to label who the assholes were.
