Your timeline is pretty off.
Chrome is a fork of Konqueoror, before it got big

That’s the fun part, it is a real router

Technically you only need one (or even 0 with WiFi) ports. Look up “router on a stick”

I have not played that one

I think it’s even more in your face about it than Disco tbh

The parallels to 20th century politics make it borderline political satire (ala Animal Farm) in spots. I enjoyed it regardless though, but it wasn’t what I was expecting
- Comment on The best games of 2026 so far 1 week ago:
Deserves a mention, but gosh was it a bit heavy handed on the politics stuff. Was not expecting that for a fantasy setting.
- Comment on Do Janitors on movie sets get upset for when a scene causes the actors to make a mess and they have to come and clean it up? 1 week ago:
Intention matters a lot. If it’s incidental to the scene and not people intentionally emptying garbage cans on the floor for no reason I’m sure it’s fine?

- Comment on Do people really give a shit on what a US President wear? I just see from time to time that they bring up the Tan Suit Incident with Obama. What is or was the big deal? I slept since then. 1 week ago:
A deal was made about it, but I don’t think it was a big one. Most people just rolled their eyes and moved on. It was stereotypical slow news week material for Fox News.

It sounded like a villain saying that, having villains behave in a disrespectful manner seems okay to me?

Those are more like conversations than actually reading a book. They’re also very short with immediate payoff. Sounds like some unbalanced brain chemistry around delayed gratification - do you have problems with that in other parts of your life? If so it could be ADHD.
- Comment on Why do asbestos roofs have so much moss? 1 week ago:
Asbestos is fine as long as you’re not inhaling it. The dangerous part would be removing/replacing it because it can kick up a lot of particles in the air. If you just leave it sitting there it should be fine.
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 week ago:
It’s shorthand for the year 2000. Which did in fact happen
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 week ago:
I remember Gmail being revolutionary for being able to load new content without reloading the whole page. Also a lot of people thought it was fake because 1gb of storage was a ridiculous amount - hot mail offered lined 5mb total or something at the time
- Comment on What was the internet like before Y2K happened ? 1 week ago:
I think most of the filesharing you mentioned was post year 2000. The only thing really around before then that was close to mainstream was Napster. Almost everyone was on dialup so downloading movies was basically not a thing. The dancing baby meme was a very low resolution, 30 seconds long, and would have a taken 10 to 20 minutes to download with a typical 1996 modem

- Comment on If Company A tells your ISP we'll call Company B, that you are downloading DMCA stuff and your Company B lets you know this. Doesn't Company A need at least a warrant for entering? 2 weeks ago:
What? No?
It sounds like you’re talking about how the US forth amendment applies to unreasonable searches of your home. Generally courts apply a concept known as curtilage that establishes the boundary of your home that they can’t violate improperly. Having records of what was sent and received to your home doesn’t require them to violate the curtilage so the forth amendment would not apply.
- Comment on If online services (such as Netflix) only ever raise their prices, does that mean they offer less and less value for money as time passes? 2 weeks ago:
Netflix would probably claim that consumers are getting more value due to increased original programming versus a decade ago. Also blaming inflation.

I played the first one of the series but bounced off it pretty quickly. Seems there are a lot of these now. Are they visual novels or something?
- Comment on Unknown Worlds Earns $250M Performance Bonus After Stellar Subnautica 2 Launch 3 weeks ago:
They probably need to sell over 14 million copies at full price to break even with that bonus. The math is very bad for them. That’s not impossible, but it would make it one of the best selling games of all time
- Comment on Warhorse says that the new Middle-earth RPG 'will be a living world' with a 'strong narrative focus' and says new Kingdom Come game could arrive 'next fiscal year' 3 weeks ago:
Companies often arbitrarily pick. In the US retailers often start the year in like April so they can get all their holiday season earnings in the same fiscal year

At some point it’s just mismanagement and blows any potential profit out the window.
- Comment on What is the deal with IPv6? 3 weeks ago:
Most network devices can have multiple IPs. Assign 192.168.1.1 to your router (in addition to your normal up) and it should probably start routing traffic to that device
