- Comment on Why does most of the world use WhatsApp as their messaging app rather than RCS/SMS? 2 weeks ago:
Basically this. tl;dr: being free and being first exposure to mobile instant messenger.
in my south east Asian country, back then we did have bundle sms pricing, buy when the mobile internet infrastructure was getting big money from governments, WhatsApp came in at the right moment. advertising them being free (with a minimal $1 or something lifetime fee nobody bothered to pay for) and can do texting and sending images for free. compared to paying bundled prices for sms and MMS, it’s just a no-brainer.

Ok who’s 002? As you can see from my instance, you probably can guess I know who rimu is.

I’m not too surprised really. modding old games and the mod pack takes literal decades to finish. for example red alert 2, tiberium sun, CNC generals (and zero hour) just for the ones that interest me.
bugs exists. modders fix bugs. especially so for games that are still getting updates, even one as scarcely updated as Terraria. I recall some long time ago the Terraria devs said the game is “finished” and then later on some big anniversary year they released a surprise update. my memory is faulty so don’t quote me

I remember this day. Was a wee lad. We were on vacation. The TV was on and apparently it was the news. I don’t remember if it’s breaking news but it might not be, since we’re 12 ish hours different time zones, and I remember seeing it at day time.
Well, back then I thought it was a movie…
And the eerie part was that my dad had just gotten back home from a business trip there just a few days before.

That’s the way to go. it’s just a silly little nitpick that I have. I don’t go out of my way to make it a big deal lol
- Comment on Perfect Rating ⭐/5 1 month ago:
Yeah that’s fair actually. Idk why I’m still hung up on that scoring but what you’re saying is what I’m doing lol
I haven’t watched many shows or movies for the past decade willy nilly because of that.
- Comment on Perfect Rating ⭐/5 1 month ago:
Still weird to me that 3/5 is accepted as bad. It’s middle of the score; it’s average. I have plenty of 3 star movies I watched and I like it just fine.
But yes mostly nowadays I just watch with the right cat’s eyes lol
