I irrationally hate the term “web3” (or maybe it’s rational). It feels like someone tried to force a paradigm rather than the natural evolution.

That license was laughable and blatant

I’ve been conditioned to fear the worst when reading a headline that starts with someone’s name. Glad to hear he’s just retiring. One of the best composers of all time.

Got a Coway too and a like it. Airmega 300

I played the original and it was such a trip that I bought Plus when it came out, but haven’t gotten around to playing it because I know the twist and it doesn’t hold the same.

Yeah no. You hit the “it’s just a joke bro!” phase. You meant things prior to getting called out and downvoted to hell.

On the bright side, life is a terminal STD with 100% mortality rate

I’ve found originals can be very hit or miss. For example I’m a FF6 purist, but FF5 sucked natively with just a language patch. YMMV.

Yeah our HOA covers the maintenance of everyones lawn so that basically removes 99% of any complaints.

I remember the massive almanac this came with. And the copy-prevention would let you get a few moves in and then ask you “please enter the first word on page 236 to continue”

And this is why I’m currently ripping all my discs of any sort to ISOs. Sadly I’ve already run into 4 unreadable ones.

I’ve come to the conclusion, people who use vim just continue to do so out of a stubborn sense of pride for finally learning the key combinations.

folks that have been doing this exclusively for 30 years

And yet the number of people I hear “just switch to Linux!” When the other person has been using Windows for 30 years blows my mind.

Inertia is a hell if a drug.

How many tiles do you get? I thought it was 8

It just sold for $35,000… so I’d definitely say it was a unique piece someone wanted.

I’ve done a 1PB sync between a pair of 8-node SAN clusters as one was being physically moved since it’d be faster to seed the data and start a delta sync rather than try to do it all over a 10Gb pipe. M

All, Top for the past 6 hours. Sometimes in the morning I’ll switch it to 12 hours to see what I missed overnight and other times the week just to make sure. But I don’t subscribe to anything, give me all the best of Lemmy

I was playing Bubble Bobble on an NES emulator, so… 1988

Cloud was never supposed to be “cheap”. It has always been a utility based model where you pay for how much you use it. The problem is, way too many people used is as a 1:1 replacement without rearchitecting their workloads, so of course it’s gonna be more expensive.

So what I’m gleaming from this, all other things being equal:

• objects (clothes, accessories): okay
• the person themselve: not so much
