Fuck off old gen, we hate you now. Fo rizz no cap etc.

By the time the generation after them get to working age, somebody will have invented the Swype keyboard for office use.
It will always be in uppercase unless you press the “no cap” button.
Can I interest you in a FCVTRHJR HDMI cable?
Maybe we can have normal priced graphics cards again.
I’m tired of people pretending £600 is a reasonable price to pay for a mid range GPU.
As in as soon as companies realise they won’t be able to lay off everybody except executives and personal masseuses, nVidia will go back to having a normal stock price.
Rich people will become slightly less grotesquely wealthy, and everything must be done to prevent this.
If your business model allows somebody to game you like that, you kind of deserve it tbh.
It shouldn’t be based on plays. It should be based on money made from a customer and divided between what they listened to/watched. But then you wouldn’t make as much money from the people that forget to use their subscriptions, which is probably a huge chunk of their revenue.
Would a DVD shop be ok with me taking a portable player in, watching a movie, then putting it back on the shelf?
Anybody that’s ever spoken to a salesperson knows that they’re talking out of their arse most of the time, and I doubt this is an exception.
He’s said this because he thinks that the people he’s talking to will give him more money if he does.
If it was happening at all you’d have seen proof by now. Like people pulling apps apart and finding proof, not just “I spoke to Bob last week about cameras and now I’m seeing ads for cameras”.
The truly terrifying part is they don’t need to listen to your conversations to know what you want.
Although that’s mostly because physical media sales are in the toilet.

While Blu-ray and HD-DVD were arguing over what comes after DVDs, they were both consigned to the dustbin. And while I like to not be reliant on subscription services, I’ve got to say a bunch of files on a Jellyfin server is much more convenient than a shelf full of plastic and foil discs.
With modern internet speeds, there’s no reason you can’t have full UHD-BR quality streamed over the internet.
I should just be allowed to take whatever I want from the shops because I don’t have enough money to buy it!
Yeah, this sounds like a shareholder soapy titwank speech to me.
They’re bullshitting everyone including the people we hate.
Exactly. We used to have a massive chain of shops called PC World, and that eventually became Currys/PC World, and is now just Currys.
The age of computers came and went, and people still need washing machines and TVs. They still sell laptops I think, but if you want anything from their range of “gaming” PCs, they have to order it in, usually from one of the many stores online that will build them for you.
Windows already lost. It lost to Android.
If you buy a PC it has Windows on it. The majority of people are not cocking about formatting a USB stick and fiddling with the BIOS to put Linux on it. They aren’t thinking about operating systems at all, and if you need specific software for work, chances are it isn’t going to run on anything other than Windows. If you don’t need it for work, you’ve probably just got a tablet by now and store all your photos on Facebook.
The UK government has already accused them of stirring up riots.
We ban piracy sites on the largest ISPs, and could easily add X to that list.
If we had to subscribe to Spotify and Amazon and Tidal and all the others to have all the artists we wanted to listen to, then I’d pirate those too.
Convenience is what I’m after, free is just a bonus.
The only allusion to it being a sequel is the bin full of drones from the original. That’s as close to the original cast as it gets.
They couldn’t even be arsed to Ghostbusters it up by getting the old crew to show the youngsters how it’s done.
You can guess the ending about ten seconds in, and the ending is actually worse than that.
Plus I really don’t like Glen Powell. The man looks designed by committee by Hollywood to normalise age gap relationships. He gives me the fucking creeps.
it is impossible to operate in San Francisco if you’re processing payments
Is it though? He talks like he still runs PayPal. All Twitter sells is adverts, blue ticks and hate.
If you’ve never placed too much trust in your sphincter before, you will eventually.
I pirated Twisters and wanted a refund.
When you browse Netflix, they use different thumbnails for the movies depending on the profile they’ve made for you. Even if it’s as blatant as “white person from the movie”/“black person from the movie”. If you ignore a movie for long enough, sometimes they even swap it out for a different image to trick you into watching it.
I’m amazed that YouTube doesn’t try and do this somehow. Instead, every video somehow has the same stupid thumbnails of arrows, meaningless text and gormless faces, and I hate it.
But then I block all ads anyway, so it may be that they’re actively trying to make me go away.
