Lay in bed for a moment and listen to the tunes on my sweet Panasonic clock radio alarm before slapping the snooze button. Then suddenly wake up to realize I have a clock radio alarm again.

Good one. Not that I can do any better, but would it make more sense to put the statue of liberty there to better reflect the original inspiration?
- Comment on Switch 2 Breaks Records By Selling Over 3.5 Million Units In Four Days 2 weeks ago:
So despite all of the bitching and moaning about all of the “game breaking” features, the shitty little camera, the lack of original games and the price they still bought it. This is why companies keep putting out crap.

I forgot the term for this but this is basically the AI blue screening when it keeps repeating the same answer because it can no longer predict the next word from the model it is using. I may have over simplified it. Entertaining nonetheless.

That’s when you pull Nick Swarsdson’s wrist watch bit. “Hey man I can’t read my watch, can you read my watch?”

- Comment on $80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen" 5 weeks ago:
I can make it happen during a Steam summer sale 4 years later. Borderlands 3 wasn’t that great when you compare it to 1 and 2. I can wait.
- Comment on Former PlayStation exec says "$70 or $80" games are a "steal": "As long as people choose carefully how they spend their money, I don't think they should be complaining" 5 weeks ago:
BACK IN MY DAY! The original Nintendo games cost just about 70 to 80 adjusted to today’s inflation. But at least you got a cool instruction booklet you could read on the car ride home, the full bug-free game (most bugs were fun if you found some anyway), and you actually owned the game with no strings attached. You could actually trade the games with your friends. If they started packing goodies with the games like that again on top of owning the game outright without some kind of shady DRM or license agreement, then yes, 80 dollars could probably be justified. That’s where I was going with physical copies.

This is like when the music industry said CD’s should cost 40 to 50 dollars instead of 12 dollars. There was only one good song on most CD’s. Look where CD’s are now. I don’t see how they can justify 80 dollars a game when they don’t even make a physical copy anymore. It’s now just an SD card with a key on it. They’re still downloading the game itself from the internet.

- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 1 month ago:
You know there’s an Internet 2 right? That’s what I’m talking about when I stated “A new internet” . A real Internet 3 and not “Web 3.0”. Internet 2 is a separate series of tubes, cables, wires, whatever you want to call it dedicated to just research. You know what’s not on Internet 2? Ads or web business models. So I have no idea what you are refuting. Nobody said we needed Web Business to make the cables work. Nobody said the money drying up would make the internet cease to function.

I don’t know where the confusion is. Maybe a typo? I don’t know.
- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 1 month ago:
Did I not make that statement about how we don’t need the webshop business model? You just a tube to connect to the series of tubes. You can pay someone for the tube or make your own damn tube.

Let me know when you understand how the internet works.
- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 1 month ago:
You’re mixing ISP fees with Ad/monetized content revenue (the “web business model”). One is a shortcut to not having build your own infrastructure and the other is for people we don’t really need for the internet to function.

This is some good stuff. Thank you!
- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 1 month ago:
Reminder: the Internet has its roots from ARPANET which is designed to survive an atomic blast and openly available to learn. A dead web business model won’t kill the technology that allows humans to instantly communicate. If anything a new internet may come of this once the money dries up.
