I’ve never had a CD/DVD R last more than a year anyway, even when using expensive media and slow burn speeds. So its not exactly archival.
anyone remember when the argument for digital goods was " We wont have to waste money on boxes, printing, media, storage, or shipping! So your goods will be cheaper than ever, and everyone will still get a more profitable cut!"
Pepperidge farm Remembers, because Pepperidge farm called bullshit on the argument back at the very start, and said they would get rid of physical media, not lower prices, and that we would lose ownership of our purchases… and the internet poopoo’d me to hell in back calling me paranoid and stupid for it.
and look where we are.
and its so goddamn fucked up I don’t even get a single molecule of serotonin from being right about it.
they also love spitting on 9 year olds who dare to wear shorts and t-shirts in the middle eastern summer, and call them whores and harlots.
Exactly why I use browser and not apps, too. and if they try to strongarm me with better prices or degraded services, I just stop using them all together.
how is everyone remembering their ICQ number?
I forgot mine 5 minutes after adding it to Trillian.
Like I said, its intentional. Nothing to fix because its doing exactly what they want. Cause they want you to install the app, which they have much greater control over and ability to harvest from.
its cause of the stupid way mega downloads file to your ram, and only when its fully downloaded does it get moved to the drive or something along those lines, its been a while since i’ve looked into it.
Its megas limitation by intentionally doing shit a stupid way then blaming the browser for it.
Israel: “Oh, Thats a shame furiously launches more attacks against aid workers”

How can you use the internet then? The internet is like a mirror, you have to have a soul to use it.
whose soul do you have and how did you steal it from them?!
Excellent write up. I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
What is this lie-nucks you speak of?
I miss those early days.
Computers were weird magic boxes with all kinds of zany and crazy shit you could put in them.
Games were just graphically impressive enough to lose yourself in, while not needing a super computer to run them.
The internet was a curiousity for nerds and not a corprotized information hoover adpocalypse hellscape for the exploitation of the masses.
Hamas is also an organization that has been propped up by Israel for the explicit purpose of maintaining a justification for the slaughter of palestinians by the IDF, and to keep the Palestinian Authority out of the picture.
probably gonna have the first generation of people who know and understand less about the technology in their very hand than the people who came before them.
Gonna be funny as shit in another 20+ years when the memes shift to tech-inept children asking mom and dad how to do frustratingly basic tasks like print a page or save a file.
This is just the 21st century version of getting angry at someone saying to xerox a paper or hand them a kleenex.
Its not xeroxing, its copying. Its not a kleenex, its a tissue.
but these brands have become identified so much with a product that their names have become generic for the product itself.
then i guess the studios should stop enshitifying streaming and make a service thats affordable and worth using, huh?
It fits.
Considering thats how its been my whole life.
Someone in my family once got severe burns on their hands cause i told them a pot was hot (It had been sitting on a grill, not like…a turned off stove where it had time to cool), to not touch it, and they rolled their eyes at me and said “what do you know” and picked it up… And yet it was my fault their hands were in bandages afterwards.
