When I was in grade school we loaded up Logo and wrote scripts to make the turtle do abstract art.

I do use DDG as my default. I was using “googling” for the sake of making a witty remark. Even so, the results are usually comparable - the first couple dozen results are mostly AI/SEO slop.

I used to be good at googling information I needed. Then Google changed what googling does.

Over there, you’ll never feel at ease.

…dammit.

This is not what I expected when I clicked “show more replies.”

Well phones already vibrate so they’re ahead of the curve in that regard.

I’m waiting for the twelvefold myself.

You can’t shit-talk one authoritarian state and cheer on another.

RB4 guitars should work.

only you can’t use instrument controllers with it

Not 100% on drum compatibility as I have no interest in Festival, but it not only supports guitar controllers, but PDP even made new models for it.

RIP Rock Band, fuck Epic.

The only element is the name of the community

Consider community names hashtags.

And if artists can’t make money of their music anymore, we’ll really only get music from rich people who can afford the lessons, instruments, recording studio, production, etc. as an expensive hobby rather than a source of income.

Oh, we’re developing alright. It’s cancer.

As someone who grew up with a 20-some inch CRT in a console format (think TV-as-furniture that sits on the floor and not a TV that sits on furniture), and then eventually got a 19" hand me down for bedroom use… yeah, the commonality of enormous flat panels still makes me shake my head in wonder sometimes.

That said, when my parents’ 27" CRT died about 10 years ago, we gave them our old 55" plasma. It was hilariously oversized for the space. But it was free (to them) and we made it work.

These things happen when a skinflint company contracts out network setup for a decade, gets acquired by another skinflint company who axes the contractors and doesn’t hire on-site network personnel, gradually builds out infra on top of the unsupported foundation, and then hires c suite buddies who want to bring in their own people to further muddy the waters.
