The fact that shrink-wrapped agreements aren’t automatically void worldwide is a fucking abomination. No you shouldn’t get to push a legally binding contract on me after I paid for the product. It’s my property now and if you want to require a license agreement after the sale then I should be able to decline it for a full refund fuck you.
When I bought Fallouts 1, 2 and Tactics from EB like 15 years ago I couldn’t run them even with the disc in the drive. The shitty securom was broken and refused to recognise the disc. It was only thanks to pirates that I was able to crack them and play the copies I fucking paid money for.
DRM is cancer.
The S5 was IP67 with a removable battery and an SD slot (so don’t listen when people say they removed batteries for the waterproofing).
The S6 had no waterproofing, no removable battery and no SD slot.
The S7 brought back the SD slot and had IP68 water resistance but they never returned the removable battery.
Wait did Samsung take them away again??
Literally reverting to the bind pose.
My favourite part of Tiny Homes is how they came into vogue and were subsequently priced out of reach of poor people.
It isn’t just housing it’s infrastructure in general. Governments are happy to bring in more bodies to fill jobs and pay taxes but don’t bother to plan accordingly and infrastructure takes a long time to build leading to a lagging effect.
Hospitals, transit, housing, etc. It’s all being overwhelmed right now.
I worked with an Arturo once and his nickname was R2
I wish it were a good kids movie. You know they exist right?
Ya the securitron is a dead giveaway
…was fired at…
Gotta love a passive voice so passive that it doesn’t even clarify that she was shot and killed and not merely “fired at”.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant
I didn’t mind Reddit gold as a method of paying for upkeep on an ostensibly free site. If well-off Redditors wanted to chip in to help with maintenance resulting in fewer or less intrusive ads then that’s grand.
The point when they started losing me was when the Reddit front page modernised into the Instagram feed looking abomination it is today and when they shifted from Reddit gold to the silver diamond thing they have now. No I don’t want to make an avatar. No I don’t want to follow users or have them follow me.
It started as the last example of old social media like forums and got metric’d into this half-formed freak of a site that seems to actively resent the users that build and maintain their entire platform.
You don’t think House of the Dead was a cinematic masterpiece? Tsk tsk! Poor taste I say!
I’m not disagreeing with you because I know terms like classic are entirely relative but holy shit referring to fortnight as a classic nearly triggered a mid-life crisis. Holy hell. Ow.
But with one of the finest toilets in the world!
