Shipping used to be the hard part. Eating caviar in Russia in a place with sturgeons nearby was easy enough, serving it at a fancy diner in Berlin or Paris involved insane logistics for the time.

You should, it’s fun to use and runs on pretty much every platform.

Java has changed a lot since Java 8. Here’s a 3-line HelloWorld.java compatible with Java 21+:
void main() { System.out.println("Hello, World!"); }
- Comment on Anon recaps the DCEU 4 months ago:
Yeah, I don’t care about DC movies but I loved Peacemaker, so I gave it a chance and it was great.
- Comment on Hytale is OUT NOW in early access! 5 months ago:
What kind of game is it? Is it like Minecraft/roblox as the screenshot suggests?
- Comment on 5 months ago:
At the time rumor was that the Benioff and Weiss were already working on their next show (3-body problem?), and just wanted to get GoT out of the way.
- Comment on How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More... 5 months ago:
IIRC that’s the whole point of luxury car commercials during half-time breaks. 99% of watchers can’t afford one, but the ad is there to remind the owners of that very fact.

Doesn’t work for le lave-linge though.
- Comment on Return to the year 2000 with classic multiplayer DOS games in your browser 6 months ago:
Most geeks were running 2000. Windows was easy to pirate at the time, you just needed a valid key, no online checks or anything.

Well I tried it before commenting, and I see the same thing as OP… I’m on Firefox stable 145.0.1.

I have a really hard time understanding how he considers any of that a problem.

Very important step: be scouted out by the financial elite early on, then have them groom you every step of the way.

Sharing is much quicker than copy/pasting manually, especially with direct share targets.
It might not be the end of the world, but Mozilla really should have made the “feature” opt-in, or at least give us a heads up.

It’s only for links shared via WhatsApp for some reason. Not sure how they know you’re sharing to WhatsApp…

This implies some respect might be due. OP’s version leaves no room for doubt.

With good ear protection though, or the pain will remain.

Still better than the morons who took their baby to a Taylor Swift concert…
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 7 months ago:
From time to time I’ll still look at their steam page during sales, because I’d like to play a blockbuster FPS where I can mindlessly mow down bad guys, with good story and production value.
But the price point and reviews always turn me off… Do you have a good alternative to recommend?
- Comment on Updates that don't tell me what is being updated 8 months ago:
I’d argue that if the app is not monetized, you deserve whatever the dev feels like giving you, for free.

How about some blackgaze then? Alcest and Deafheaven are amazing.

- Comment on Microsoft concedes that 'The Outer Worlds 2' retail price was too high — Xbox says it "will keep our full priced holiday releases at $69.99," with refunds incoming 10 months ago:
First one is an AA game I guess. Better production value than an indie title, but far from Skyrim or GTA.
- Comment on Anon has an unexpected day 1 year ago:
Yep that’s pretty close to the Spanish pronunciation, except for the rolled R of course.
In French Lafayette is pronounced la-fa-yet, with flat As like in “cat”.
I’m french so take the first one with a grain of salt.
- Comment on Anon discovers cigarettes 1 year ago:
It just smells like an ash toilet
IMO that’s part of why so many people (me included) fall for this shit: “there’s no way I’ll become addicted to this horrendous shit, no harm in bumming another one to look cool”.

Let’s settle on “far-fetched”. As for the “gay” part, I assume we’re all in agreement. Let’s move on to the next shitpost, shall we?
- Comment on French culture 1 year ago:
Yeah, if you only do touristy stuff you’re gonna have a bad time. It’s like saying NYC sucks when you’ve only visited Time Square.

Nah, you want bimbos.
- Comment on Anon appreciates Chris Sawyer 1 year ago:
He also wrote the PC ports of Elite 1 and 2, which were amongst the most innovative and technically complex games of their time.
