Have you heard about the FBI’s No Fly list? There’s no due process there.

The crappy experience is from Kia dealerships who still act like its the 90s, where the most reliable new sedan/coupe a middle class family buys is a Honda, but if they don’t have the credit for it they buy a Hyundai, and if they can’t swing that, then they get a Kia. Bottom of the barrel buyers who have no…

He did a lot of business with the mob (can’t get around it in NY Real Estate Development). As such he destroys documents, uses coded language, etc. Separate and apart from that, he violated and shattered every norm, procedure, and rule of law because he thinks he’s above the law. And he likely is. The RNC is calling…

I refuse to believe that there’s anyone 15 or younger who has money to buy phones, and yet Google’s crying about being bullied... https://www.businessinsider.com/google-apple-imessage-iphones-android-green-blue-bubbles-peer-pressure-2022-1

AAA games have gotten risky in recent years. Since 2005 games haven’t increased in price ($59.99, although some are now charging $69.99 for next gen), but their marketing costs have SKYROCKETED. The one off games need to compete with the annual release games in order to get your business, because without you making…

When Netflix was a DVD renter, charging per disc, it made decent money despite few homes having DVD players. When they switched to a subscription model they started really raking it in. They then cannibalized their own product by shifting from DVD rentals to instant streaming. As competitors started offering streaming…

Get outta here with your green bubbles

Is it me, or is Boba Fett the new bacon/avocado? I’m a long time fan and was initially stoked about all the new merch/fan service, but suddenly its EVERYWHERE, and now not as good...

You mean Rachel Dolezal

He started getting a right wing following, and he’s leaned into it. Spotify gave him a $100M contract 2 years ago. There’s obscene amounts of money to be made in peddling to these nut jobs, and content providers are now trying to “out-Fox-News” Fox News.  

It’s people that are the problem. In order for recycling to work effectively, people need to do their part to properly sort and prepare their recycling. These programs should be printing money for local communities! Instead they end up as revenue losers. Americans are the goddamn worst. We can’t be bothered to do…

We don’t want to be short-sighted. We also don’t want to put off progress. What’s California going to do in 30-40 years with millions of EV batteries? No one knows, but chances are good that once there’s a supply of batteries some new business model (that no one could currently even dream up) will come along that…

Agree with Infotainment all the way. They suck, all of them, because car makers don’t specialize in UI software. Every car manufacturer should just outsource their infotainment to both Apple and Google, and let the driver pick which flavor they want. So sick of crappy buggy touch screens. Each manufacturer’s would be…

Mini’s sunroofs are tinted and have a mesh headliner cover so it’s not bright but allows natural light in. It was genius (along with the second sun-visor over the driver-side window, why aren’t these a thing?!?)

They’re usually white. If they weren’t, those law enforcement encounters would go a lot differently, here in America. If you’re a minority and cops think you may have a weapon, you can get shot. If you’re white, armed, and being a huge jackass, you walk away breathing

Gamecube SSB on the other hand, not a ton of difference there...

Oooh boy that got a lot of replies! Yes, you are all right, it’s definitely not copyright, but TM I was confusing use/lose with. My B.

It’s expensive to be poor, they get nickled and dimed for every good/service and they’re nearly always worse quality/smaller than goods that people more well off can afford

Copyright law, that’s why. Use it or lose it.

That’s the rub. Both the industry and players have changed over time. When we revisit these cherished memories sometimes they don’t hold up. On a lark during Xmas, my siblings and I found our old N64 and Goldeneye, and excitedly booted it up, having not played in 20 years. Holy hell were we terrible at it and didn’t…
