- Comment on An award-winning ESPN producer resigned after 24 years over the network's embrace of sports betting: “I’m not going to have blood on my hands.” 3 days ago:
I wondered if I was wrong or if it used to be illegal to advertise gambling with sports. Heck you still can’t take a sip of alcohol in commercials … But you can ruin a family financially. That’s nice.
- Comment on Work Hard, Enjoy Never 1 week ago:
It’s a nice thought, the wife would go but not without the daughter and she Isn’t. I’m too old to want to get rid of everything and start again and too poor to move anything with me. Nope - I’m in it for the whole ride.

- Comment on Vibe Gaming: Project VEGA - Microsoft Research 5 weeks ago:
It’s like a tamagachi game where you occasionally feed and monitor. I dunno, having that as an interactive screensaver like Johnny Castaway would be cool.
- Comment on How common were video game scalpers in the 1990s? 5 weeks ago:
In 85 we were phone phreaking to get free long distance so we could dial up a bbs in California to illegally download the game Paperboy.
- Comment on Active Matter developers put up an incredibly distasteful AI notice on Steam 5 weeks ago:
Meh. I think it’s amusing, not offensive.
- Comment on What is a good and easy to cook deep south southern food in the US? 5 weeks ago:
As a New Englander that moved to the south. Tenderloin biscuits for breakfast. Cook you up a pork tenderloin , slice it thick and slap it on a biscuit hot. No idea how I lived without these so long. They do the same with very thick sliced fried bologna… Which is novel but the tenderloin rocks. No idea why the south can’t make a biscuit that won’t throw crumbs 2 feet in every direction though.

Why not use a security based OS on a thumb drive and boot into it for surfing privately. There was one I played with a while ago but forgot the name.

They continue to make things worse. As of now I’m not touching anything with the name Sony on it. May be a permanent decision.
- Comment on Sony lawyers argue that nobody is stupid enough to believe they actually own digital games, because then only one person could buy GTA 6 1 month ago:
It’s ok. Sony is burying consoles at the moment and I am not sad to see them go. There was a time for game machines on the family TV but those days are over. Get yourself a Steam deck or some handheld and screw the family TV . We didn’t want to keep that anyway. Good bye to Sony from gamers, it was fun for a while.

True. It’s a lesser of two evils … Comcast vs Proton though, no brainer.

Yes, use any other DNS other than your provider. Adgaurd at minimum, PI hole with advanced lists is better. Both even better.
- Comment on This is what Democratic voters are saying. Will the party listen? 2 months ago:
I honestly don’t think that any entrenched politician has even the slightest capability of “Listening” to people they so obviously hold in contempt for being less well off. The career people are all set for life (yet oddly still greedy enough) to sell anyone out for personal gain.
- Comment on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years 2 months ago:
They can kiss my hairy ass, not on the left, not on the right, but right in the middle. I’ll play the 40 plus years of games I’ve already amassed over and over instead. Hell I’ll even make myself ai slop choose your own adventure books before I spend one cent on streaming only anything.

- Comment on PSBLACKOUT (boycott of PlayStation) 2 months ago:
I’m with ya brother! I do miss the eye toy and it’s 4 games. Seeing what Sony did to neuter the PS3 was enough to smell the way that wind was blowing. Emulators now… That’s another thing.
- Comment on PlayStation 3 emulator RPCS3 reaches a new milestone: 75% of all PS3 games are now playable on PC 2 months ago:
I’ve done this and once you know the procedure it’s easy money. You can even sell up for ‘premium’ thermal compound and full dust removal.

Yeah me too. With all this creative tomfoolery though I can’t imagine it’s helpful to to guys in the trenches coding the thing.

- Comment on A Kentucky church is urging its members to remove books from the Shelby Public Library by checking them out and never returning them 1 year ago:
Roman Catholics get to talk to the father in confession and are issued a pennance. In my experience ( I’m since agnostic ) I was issued dumb things like say 100 hail Marys my son. It’s all a joke really. We were expected to confess EVERY week so we would use convenient things like “father I had Inpure thoughts about miss Tucker” even though you didn’t. Most of us didn’t do the pennance. We did however make friends with the altar boys who had access to the wine… Yeah we used real wine. I got a little more than tipsy on the blood of Christ a few times.
