Metatronz,

They busted out of the hospital and took what wasn’t nailed down. Turns out, that was the only thing not nailed down. Twas an odd hospital

Metatronz,

Maybe canines? Idk

I just think it would be dope to drive under as a dramatic fight between an elk and wolves tumbled off the side onto my vehicle. Killing all of us instantly. What a way to go!

Metatronz,

I thought that was the joke. Of course the whole planet isn’t cold all at once.

Metatronz,

Cities Skylines 2 has been great for this. Just log in and tinker with your city! Very relaxing creative problem solving…

Metatronz,

I just got one question. What is cruft?

Metatronz,

From the article:

Those are recommended either because the companies (e.g. Volla and Fairphone) are directly involved in the development, or some devices (Google) are supported by maintainers with a good long-term track record.

Metatronz,

I’d love to get this going on my pinetab2.

Metatronz,

You said the living conditions changed and you’re at your parents primarily? Maybe just too many changes and it’s stressed him out. Reassurance and some new toys to chew might be worth it.

Metatronz,

Window dressing distraction from Ukraine anyway. Seems to be working.

Metatronz,

Agreed. Twas the only thing I thought while playing. This would be better with mods. Which is a sad state because I spent real money on a mod sandbox without the mods.

Metatronz,

Seriously, just drop it then. They need to clarify their role.

Metatronz,

Possibly a Saudi gift? (Got dark, sorry)

Metatronz,

Made me want to get back into Sons of the Forest. Now those are my people.

Metatronz,

What a manipulation tactic though. Phase in the change at different times for different users.

Maybe one day they’ll have the ability to just roll out the shit internet for plebs and the shitter, but shinny, version for the rich.

What if someone gets left behind in the great ad war? Lol. A lone user who has never seen an ad on the Internet ever.

Metatronz,

Grayjay has been really nice! Enjoying it so far.

Metatronz,

As an introvert, I did a lot of things like that. But the tendency to be online more during that time started to result in depression. I don’t have many friends but I do have close friends. Not seeing them kinda ate at me. Things still feel weird.

Metatronz,

I loved it when windows recently started giving me Xbox achievements (aka ads for Xbox) notifications just for playing any PC game on my computer. Like I’m trucking along, playing a steam game, and Xbox game bar shit, just has to wake up from its slumber to say: we randomly noticed you played something on this computer! Have you considered Xbox today?

Metatronz,

I jump around a lot. It keeps things fresh. Keep 3-4 games rotating for a bit then completely change.

Metatronz,

If it imploded at depth, they literally wouldn’t have time to feel it.

Metatronz,

God I loved that console. The weird ass memory card with the built in screen was just cool.

Metatronz,

Another user, in a similar thread, shared this speech on enshittification. Addresses a good bit of what you are talking about and why mass action is hard in the current legal framework. We need better laws.

Metatronz,

Good movie though. I enjoyed it quite a bit since feminism doesn’t scare me. Grow up people.

With that said, fuck those prices, and fuck fake ownership.

Metatronz,

Aren’t physical 4k Blu-rays still DRMd? When every part of the chain is digital your physical disc is still only as good as the will of Sony or whoever really owns it.

Metatronz,

Just passively take it from you. Not saying physical is pointless at all, but physical discs and their players haven’t stood still technologically either. If anything, streaming and discs converged.

Simply considering the fragile nature of a disc and the parade of new formats puts a clock on your time with it.

Metatronz,

True. I’ve certainly scoped out blu ray players of a particular vintage for those reasons. Just crazy we have to reach back in time to attempt to get around a trap that the vast majority of consumers don’t see.

Metatronz,

Sure you didn’t, buddy. We know it was thick and don’t blame ya.

Metatronz,

Yeah, I stuck around for the horny bit to be unpacked but it never came.

Metatronz,

What on earth are you talking about.

Metatronz,

I could very well be mistaken and please correct me if I am. I remember reading that canning a show before season 3 or so was a way of getting around union costs that kick in for a ‘longer’ running show. A very anti labor strategy designed to cash in quickly then drop it so Netflix wouldn’t have to share the wealth.

Metatronz,

The toilets in some Indian trains is a trip within themselves too. At least, in the one I took to northern India, so perhaps more rural.

Anyway, it was a literal hole in the floor of the train with bare tracks whizzing by your ass. Gotta say, that was an adventure I hadn’t thought about in a long time.

Yes, you are defecating on the train tracks. Along those same tracks, some people were living their lives in little huts made from trash. Speaks for itself.

This was around 2008, I hope something improved, it broke my heart.

Metatronz,

I can only imagine the delicious conversations about what objectionable art other people are enjoying that ‘their’ tax dollars paid for. Sure, let’s do it.

And when the GOP holds enough power again we could finally have real US branded State TV! The Trump News Network will live, lol

Metatronz,

Streaming has ultimately taught me how little I ‘need’ to watch since it trains you to really only seek out a couple things per service. I’ve also become very advertisment sensitive being blessed with tools to avoid that and companies honeymooning people for a while with fewer ads compared to what cable did.

Obviously, the dipshits are springing their ‘trap’ but I’m not bullish on the strategy of forcing consumers to suddenly tolerate a return of ads everywhere and always on entertainment. I just see folks running away again/further disconnecting from traditional media.

Metatronz,

I think the dates are more relevant than the software. COVID pandemic was probably more impactful here than Linux.

Metatronz,

Did Tupac’s estate agree? Or receive compensation?

Metatronz,

Heck yeah, fella. Feels great

Metatronz,

Or, idk, regulators could like, do their jobs.

Metatronz,

Or get flung out in an incredible gravity slingshot! I’m down for that mini game

Metatronz,

Makeup the super experimental deep ‘sea’ (gas giant) diver of the day. Sounds like interesting gameplay.

Metatronz,

Sounds incredible! Very interested
