I read the headline and thought "well yea, no shit. Thats what happens". It must be a slow news day (you can only report the "new" release date for gta so many times).

"In his first year as CEO, Wilson initiated a "player-first" corporate strategy, and offered more free-to-play games and in-app purchase options.[7] In a move towards a transformation from physical software to digital, he also greatly increased EA's digital offerings, and launched EA Access, a subscription-based digital service for Xbox One players that allows unlimited play across a selection of EA titles.[7][8] Electronic Arts had a large revenue increase and its stock price doubled in 2014.[7][9]" -wiki

So basically this guy is behind EAs thirst for micro transactions and getting rid of physical copies. Anything he says in cringe.

Swing and a miss. Eagle scouts have some crazy community service requirements.

That makes sense, the pc police havent had anything to complain about lately. Ew its so offensive.

Turd_Ferg OP ,
@Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works avatar

I didnt even know that was possible. What are legal implications when doing this?

Turd_Ferg OP ,
@Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works avatar

You guys are killing it in the responses. I have sooo many options now.

Ugh scientific papers behind a paywall. Those publishers are the worst, mainly because any respectable researcher will give you access to their papers for free. Just have to go around the publisher.

I think there alot of lurkers in this sub (myself included) who are in the same position you were in 6 months ago. Thank you for showing us the first steps. This might be the kick I needed to start getting serious about privacy.

I had a MTV Road Rules page on angelfire. Its still there, but the HTML is embarrassing. (this was when frames were becoming popular on sites. 1999ish)

3 years and anon came up with enough to buy his own house in cash. Im thinking anon is a drug dealer or a very good prostitute.

Turd_Ferg ,
@Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works avatar

Thats a down payment, anon bought that shit straight cash. You figure the average down payment is 20% so.. 150K+ for your friend, thats no chump change either. Does he stay out late at night, maybe looks frazzled all the time?

Mods, I know this doesnt follow post criteria, but I thought it was relevant. Please remove if its no bueno.

Their strategy to combat ad blockers is to add more ads. Logic becomes irrelevant when youre surrounded with a cloud of greed. Ublock ftw.

How are those scripts with updates? YT has been on the ball lately, patching holes. Im definitely going to look into using scripts though, thanks for the rabbithole... see you in a few weeks haha.

For the longest time I told people the peppy tgif waiter from Office Space was the voice of Michelangelo. Then I looked it up… its not true. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTeUAHNMpeA

I’d settle for a headphone jack period. Any suggestions?

I havent tried it, but I was told about Redact. It replaces all of your post with gibberish.

We used to leave on our bikes for the day (no phones, so basically unreachable). The only rule was you had be back by dinner.

It was definitely the time to do stupid shit, but it was also great freedom. I remember constructing skate parks in abandoned factories that would rival some of the best pre fabs today. We made a 2 story indoor go-ped track. Obviously very dangerous stuff, but i wouldn’t trade those memories for anything.

Turd_Ferg ,
@Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works avatar

Dirt tracks were amazing. We had a few, one of which was a huge bowl in the ground. The jumps were enormous and I always thought “whos hitting these?” Like pro level size and you would never see anyone on them. Then you’d hear “so and so” did a 3 on that one. It made for some good myths. Luckily there was so much empty space, we’d just make some jumps for our skill level.

Dirty Mike and the Boys would question this survey… if you can find them.

In my own experience I found that .world communities are usually the ones to stay away from. Most of the comments devolve into petty bickering and go off topic quickly. It was a great improvement when I made a new sub list of topics from other instances. They arent as active, but the quality of discussions is higher and respectful.

I have a friend who worked on the Mandalorian as a make-up artist. I was so jealous when I found out. I believe she did the Xi’an character, if I remember correctly.

Yup this is definitely the first thing to check. Unfortunately I think it was my need for bulky un-destructible cases, that bent my charging ports.

I looked into this, but the closest to me was about 1 hour away. When I looked up the streetview, it was a guy’s garage with small shady sign infront lol

Give my phone to some guy in his garage to fix or just use the wireless charger. Thats an easy choice every time haha
