Nah, we got them fancy sliding tabs on those. I was talking about loading programs from tape LOL.

Same. I remember needing converters for these newfangled PS/2 connectors. Then again, I am old enough that I remember why floppies were called floppies, and used tape for more than just backup. And hard drives being as big as a shoe box and with less storage than you now have as CPU caches.
Fine, I’ll concede that on a new outlet type B has a decent grip on the plug. Sadly, the majority of outlets I’ve interacted with over the years are worn to the point of being just as bad. Plus, the fact that you can have an appliance plugged in and working with part of the prongs exposed is just a safety issue that should’ve been fixed decades ago.
But okay, I suppose that goes for type A as well on top of it being an inferior design so I’ll retract my statement.

God, I hate how this is accurate on both accounts. Fucking dog whistles…
Counterpoint: I lived in Sweden and I miss that winter’s gloom. Sure, it’s dark before the snow falls but it gives you something to look forward to.
Sounds like Canada anywhere not near the ocean. I’m in that same boat, and I’ll happily trade the stupidly hot summers for two extra months of winter.
I miss the moderate summers of Scandinavia in that regard. Sure, it rained a lot, but at least you could go outside without roasting to a crisp in minutes during summer.
So very true. Dressing for cold is so much easier than heat it’s mindboggling to read some of these summer fan comments. Like, do you guys actually live on the same planet as I do? Cause this one sucks the minute temperatures go past 20c.
Thank you for perfectly describing just about all the reasons I would skip summer altogether if I could.
The one missing complaint from my end is that you can’t do anything outside or in a non-AC building without instantly sweating like you took a shower with your clothes on.
And don’t get me started on everything being on fire. The only thing worse than regular summer is a summer where you can’t see the skies for several month’s due to the smoke and you have to worry about your house burning down all the damn time.
Couldn’t agree more with the OOP.
“Just one more layoff. Just one more and I promise we’ll have Copilot reach AGI. We just need one more layoff to make the cost structure work. Please, just one more.”
Congratulations, you win both this thread and my disgust. This is literally every company in software development these days.
Depends on your expectations. If you okay mainly eSports titles at 1080p it would’ve probably been quite sufficient still.
But I agree it’s a stretch as an all-rounder system in 2025. My 3090 is already showing signs of it’s age, a card that’s two generations older would certainly be struggling today.
Yeah yeah, I blame autocorrect.
If your machine has a TPM chip, you can bypass the other requirements to upgrade to 11 with a simple registry edit. Not sure if that’s an option for you, but it saved parents’ older Surface device from the landfill.
Actual Microsoft rollout practices 🤣
Yeah, that one really makes fuck all sense.
There’s a great video on YT that goes into all the terrible edits in this movie, and they cover literally almost the entire runtime of the film.
I can only assume the academy was either bribed or blackmailed to come to this decision.
It should’ve buried the genre entirely imho. So many inaccurate biopics got released since, with that Queen one being one of the worst offenders (breaks the real world timeline of events for dramatic story telling reasons, clearly biased from one member’s perspective, and with piss poor editing throughout).
Same should be said for DBZ Abridged. I seriously do a double take every time I see an original episode now, as the voice actors and characterizations from Abridged have replaced the canon ones in my head.
While you may be right, I still want to make sure the Finns get credit for naming these home made petrol bombs since the origin of the name is just so badass.
Since nobody mentioned them yet, Strapping Young Lad - Detox.
Honestly though, anything that Devin Townshend touches is gold.
