Yeah I just got an invite as well and I haven’t logged in since the protest that brought the first wave of us here. So karma has to be a deciding factor, I had over 100k I think so that would be the only reason I got an invite.

The thing that everyone ITT seems to be forgetting is that while yes making rice or beans or something similar can be cheap and also very filling. When someone is working 40+ hours a week at multiple jobs to keep a roof over their heads, depression is inevitable. Living paycheck to paycheck is stressful, anxiety inducing, and depressing. So when someone is exhausted and depressed, sometimes all they have the energy for is to pour a bowl of cereal, because anything beyond that is just too much.

…but nowhere near the amount and quality of gaming in, say, the NES days where there are more high quality games on that single console than there has been on every console in the last 15 or so years.

Now lets not romanticize older systems. As someone who grew up playing the original NES, I agree the console had a MASSIVE library of games in its hayday, but I would say less than half of them were even worth a shit. But you’re right, current consoles are simply leaning hard on “Look at how pretty it is” rather than actual quality gameplay.

I don’t think all of those people just up and stopped using Reddit. My guess is a lot of them stopped engaging or even logging in and just lurk these days.

I used to blare that on my phone when my teenager was taking too long to get ready.

Those desks and the massive three-ringed binders, were the bane of my existence as a child.

Meh…You say potato, I say potato.

It seems so lazy to me that so many game studios are just focusing on milking that one cash cow title they have, rather than just spending their time developing new games. Greed ruins everything

It’ll be like if they brought clippy back but only this time hes even more of an asshole and now he can fuck up your OS too.

I used to have a lady I worked with who was like this. She had the common sense of a fucking carrot and was dumb as shit. What was weird is she was highly skilled in the one job she was hired for, the rest of the time she would click on everything and I would had to fix her computer multiple times a week. One time I tried to walk her thru something on the phone and I told her to click on an icon, her response was “Whats an icon?”

Actually no. That quote is from the bible.

Zapp’s quote is “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised.”

I’m in IT and luckily I never had to deal with this. Now if they had a card that said “So you’ve bricked the company server” then that would be me.

Tons of crap like millions of “Fuck spez” all over the place, big ones and small ones, at one point they took up almost a 5th of the visible area. There were multiple statements about never forgetting what was taken from us or joining other social media. There were insults about spez in other languages and a guillotine with a snoo in it labeled Spez

Yup, troll!

Move along people, nothing to see here.

Inspector 5 gave me his blessing!

How could he bring me into this world knowing I would die?

“Everything must have USB-C” sounds great right now, but what about when it gets old and slow or something better comes a long that is worth the switch… we have to wait for the EU to tell everyone it’s ok and make a transition plan for the whole industry?

The entire point of the USB-C thing is so there is a standard charging port across all mobile devices. I doubt this is some sort of attempt at regulating the technology itself. If something faster comes along then it will organically become the new industry standard, just as every other USB charging port up to this point(e.g micro USB, mini USB). Apple is the outlier because they’ve kept their proprietary charging port for years, for the sole purpose of being able to set their own price for cables, dongles, etc… and preventing people from buying cheaper 3rd party options.

These big name actors are fighting for the people that are part of SAG that are extras or do stunts who make jack shit from most productions. These people are fighting for members of their union, this has nothing to do with anything else.

They called it the “Disney Vault”. They did the same for VHS too, they would re-release old movies onto VHS for a limited time and then it would “Go back in the Vault”. Its an annoyingly effective marketing scheme and I hate that almost all studios do this with their shows and movies now.

I don’t drink because alcohol gives me bad heartburn and a headache long before I get drunk. Guess that does sorta count as being in poor health.
