SUCK SUCK SUCK SUCK

But my Ariel on Vaporean porn is a dream yet to become a reality… (I’m getting old, that is the Pokemon with the weird fetish, right?)

Just brought out my old dvds and put them on hard drive. They were burned 18 years ago and used organic dyes. I recovered avout 50% of them. Old me should have spent more on nonorganic discs… but old me couldn’t afford them back then, so he gets a pass I guess. Plus new me can easily dl most of those discs in an hour or two now.

And when AI inevitably collapses, programmers should join unions and negotiate for a much higher wage, as they will be in even more need to fix all the shit that gets broken. Everyone knows it’s easier to replace or rebuild, but companies can’t do that, they’ll need their code, their databases, accounts, everything - fixed. That will cost them more than they ever thought they’d save. AI will one day do the things they want, but we’re looking at decades until it can reach that point.

Yeah, the good ones get bought out. (RIP Armstrong, Adelphia)

Sony pissed me off a few years back. Day one: wanna share data with us? No. Year later: data? No. Year 3. Your tv will no longer accept internet connections unless you agree to share your data. Ok, fuck. Year 4. 30% apps no longer work due to system requirements. You - bastards. I just used a firestick in it until it died on year 6. Which also sucks since it was $3000 in 2017.

After Equifax and DOGE, I’m not sure I can bring myself to care anymore. Cat’s out of the bag, and no one will be punished. I get shit on, again and again, and my “representatives” rake in that sweet “lobby” money to ignore the issue. I just wish the bad actors would share the lawmakers information very publicly so they might finally start caring.

I had considered upgrading this year. I just bought two battery cases for my s20fe cause I figure I’ll have it for awhile longer now and my battery case is getting hard to find now and the current one is more than a year old.

They did a sequel, too. It wasn’t as good, but points out the 6 degrees of separation in connection with terrorism instead of MAD.

Came here to say this. Turns out real life WOPR is nothing like a movie.

“This just in. Panic buying of paper has led to shortages in timber, resulting in another round of toilet paper scarcity.”

Paramount gets confused about who is ad free too. You have to restart the app to fix it. I just got the ad version cause why bother if I get ads and can’t fast forward or rewind anyhow?

From what I’ve heard, it’s like inkjet printers and a signature. Add a squiggle along the inevitable seam that is on the print. Each squiggle is different, and it may even skip every three layers or so.

Fallout plays a comedic take on it, but I can very much see a gun being made out of iron pipe and a shovel handle.

Ha! Jokes on you. My state is so poor it was the least affected by the 2008 crisis. Wait, that still sucks, only more…

They did that, twice. Even got a trial and 34 felonies. Repercussions? None. Honestly if you do your job and not only see nothing come of it but said felon has an impact on your job now I can sympathize a bit.

My wife still blames me for advising her to buy this instead of an ipod. It wasn’t as easy to use inho. It was drag and drop in file management and didn’t require software, but… ok?

Haha. Yeah Charter is good at moving that goalpost aren’t they?

1994, cable lines installed by Adelphia in my area. Soon after, bought by Comcast, top speed - 280mbps for $60 in 2017, then $70 2 years later. NO new lines installed since 1994. 2020 ice storm downs miles and miles of cable and electric, they report “upgraded lines”, my limit is increased to 400mbps, still get 280. 3 mo later, price goes to $80. Frontier installed fiber last year, I told them I’m cancelling. Their save offer? 300mbps for $85. My jaw dropped. I wasn’t going to stay no matter what, but I felt gaslighted.
