Man, there’s a throwback. This is the first time I’ve seen that game referenced in the wild lol

Unless I’m mistaken, JavaScript handles most of the event listeners and dynamic actions on websites… I suppose there is PHP and ASP doing a bit of that too, but I think most of it is JS

Yeah? It wouldn’t be as flashy looking but it would be far more secure and far less system-heavy.
Would also be great if our browsers didn’t report every little detail about our PC too…
Time to go back to BBSing.

New? It’s been a thing for ages. Used to be live boot CDs but USB is faster so it switched over like 15+ years or so ago…
- Comment on Is it weird that I cringe whenever someone calls my name and I avoid using peoples names when talking to them? 5 weeks ago:
I hate being called “sir” it sounds pretentious as fuck. Use my name, its far more personable and normal. Titles are like dress codes - completely made up theater that people play along with.
In the event of a call center scenario, it wouldn’t even be hard to track down who took the call whether they remembered my name or not, so I still wouldn’t care.
- Comment on Why are some people deciding to switch to iOS as Android is putting on more (iOS-like) restrictions? 1 month ago:
I don’t see a reason to jump yet, but they’re getting close… The day they kill Termux and Tasker I’m out - at that point it will be making a choice between:
A) A piece of shit
B) A piece of shit that at least has some degree of security and probably isn’t mining and selling my data off to everybody who asks. - Comment on What are some drugs you think will make a comeback like qualewds or thai sticks or window pane?

Is it bad that I learned the spelling through playing tons of DopeWars back in the 2000s? 🤣

Exactly that kind of shit lol

It had potential to be a great way to index and find things based on key terms. The flaw was letting the normies use it.

Sounds like BurialGoods. His vids are all pretty good. I don’t get why people are getting so butthurt over the pacing of the vid - it’s not really different from having subtitles.
- Comment on Ain’t this the truth 2 months ago:
Is that BurialGoods? Dude’s got some awesome vids on YouTube and a really good voice.

- Comment on I’m small down there and get my fiancé off with a big dildo. Do you see any issue with this? 5 months ago:
No way - you straight up say she enjoys having sex with you, and you’re making sure she’s taken care of. Who cares how it’s done - you enjoy it, she enjoys it, and you both get to finish. I see nothing but wins here, king.

You mean it when to “They don’t want my money anymore since they removed it from the tier I was paying into, so they won’t mind me getting it in other ways”
- Comment on Whatever happened to the days when shit just...worked? 5 months ago:
Yup, and you’ll see the idiots I droves coke to defend it, too - “but the water resistance!” As if they’re swimming with their phone or something. The S5 was fine for using in the rain and getting splashed.
When they removed SD cards from the more recent phones, the idiots were out there in droves telling me how nobody uses SD cards but me. Crazy what some people are willing to store on somebody else’s computer, and how much people are willing to over-pay for storage. Absolutely wild.
- Comment on Whatever happened to the days when shit just...worked? 5 months ago:
Nope, in fact I got good at IT shit because it seldom worked and I had to do the work of troubleshooting and figuring things out. And times were better because we had that ability.
Now everybody just expects things to work, and they don’t care about having any ability to learn about it or fix it, and we’re all paying for it. Things are likely getting shittier over time specifically because of people refusing to learn and accepting “If it doesn’t work, I guess I need to buy a new thing”. Fuck that line of thinking - if it’s digital, it can be done eventually. It’s just a case of figuring out how, or waiting a bit for hardware to get to the point where it can be done.

Not really tho.

It’s silly how some of them do this while simultaneously pushing ugly and aggressive policies.

The pushback would be when they cry about monetary losses for something they literally don’t even sell anymore. Is this not why they’re always trying to take down ROM sites?
