Melting Grok while asking questions why a book is good.

A friend of mine worked on repairs and hated these because they just just wouldn't work in slot-loading drives (when they were still a novelty) and on some cases they were a pain in the ass to remove if they got stuck in something.

don't worry, if you want to get your pulse racing just sit down and watch the news.

I can have two ideas, the problem is being able to talk about them for one hour. Unfortunately you can't just start riffing on random stuff after 30 minutes 😔

A photo of a black Samsung YP-U3, a late 2000s MP3 player that looks like a large USB stick. It has a blue LED screen on the left and on the right four touch buttons in a plus sign pattern and a go back button on the top right corner.

It reminds me of my first mp3 player.

Yor Forger, from the Spy Family anime, completely enamoured by the painting, as Loid Forger looks completely clueless on what to say.

Everyone on each new day a new indignity is pushed onto us:

cats would rather get inside a random box than go to therapy

Not saying it was good, but there was some charm to when companies tried to add something to games that wasn't code, text, pixel art and sound/music before realising they need a budget for such things.

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

Musk is exactly the type of guy who in 2009 searched for the cutaway gags on Youtube because he didn't want to watch a ful episode, just something to say "did you see Chris stuck in the Take On Me videoclip yesterday? very funny" on the monday morning meeting.

I think part of the reason Musk is so meme coded is that it allows him to have contact with a popular medium he knows *nothing* about and has no mental capacity to engage with beyond "funny image hahaha".

I found one lost in a box of old computer stuff a client dropped off and never looked back. Also because at that time I don't know where I'd find one.

to see that I just need to walk towards the northeast for less than 10 minutes during some parts of the week, like:

watching the (insert bad team) with a towel over my head to hide the shame from god's eyes.

Maybe only second to "I used to be one of them but they have gone too far and now I'm with you", which is the natural evolution of that process.

Gyronews is a better name, but seems to be already taken, so it's a win by default. May I suggest Guerre de l'info as a replacement?

I just can't wait to see democratic "leadership" pretending the guy the coalition were people who follow all those reactionary centrists on twitter, cops, rich people who resent being next to all the poors in NY and Trump voters, and courted the help of Trump, is fit to run and even endorse him.

Considering a lot of their stuff now is actually licensed instead of doing "Patriot Star Shield" and "Teen Boy Spider", I think the entire company has existed for the last 6 or 7 years as something game stores that no longer sell games could put on the shelves for the costumers they no longer have.

Congratulations for achieving an horizontal structure, even if it's for being a party leadership sucks ass, I guess.

From the times you got something in the mail that could provide you some minutes of fun faffing about, or two hours of fun reinstalling windows.

Who up destroying they desktop?

One time I though of doing a calculator where someone would input their age, anything they wanted to buy, some money for living expenses until their death according to averages and compare that to the wealth of the top 25 richest people in the world to show how obscene those levels of wealth are.

"Like a Tarantino movie that references 60s and 70s film"

(menacingly) time to take out the trash

I recall I did some datamoshing at the time (although with an hex editor), it was truly a "let's see that this does" process where a lot of times was "break it too much"

I'd also accept every AI datacenter being locked away for 20 years, and only able to use phones lines once a day at extortionate rates.

I saw someone quite well off complain how "minimum wage workers have a better living than them" and then you know they're shit with money bc they tried to have a 5 bedoroom new build apartment, three recent luxury cars, wife at home and two kids in private schools etc with a upper middle class job.

There are a lot of jokes about "n-word passes", but it's quite something to see the ADL looking at how pro-Israel someone is before giving them actual nazism / anti-semitism passes.

Trying to remember what game a friend of mine decided to wait for a promo because they had for sale something like vanilla, v + extra content, v + cosmetic dlcs, v + special pre-order content, v + multiplayer bonuses and a complete edition (which was just the game plus season pass and cosmetic)

took me a while to understand what was going on, I don't even understand *why* you need this graphic, this idea of having to do named bundles for everything is so stupid. All you need is "Base game", "DLC" and "complete edition", I think people understand that pretty easily.
