This video was one of the very first videos I ever saw on the internet...like before Youtube or any other video streaming existed.  It was a welcome intro to the wild and wonderful world of what I’d discover online  lol

I wonder if it’ll affect people using VPNs.  I use one for security but just about every sponsored ad of a VPN has people bragging about using them to access content in other countries, which I’m SURE they also want to do away with.

So often whenever I see what has the highest views at any given time on YouTube or Twitch I wonder if I’m just....missing something.

I remember when I was a kid King’s Dominion in VA had a lot of those Disney like touches. The park it is now is a complete 180 from that. It’s just mostly themeless rides on asphalt. Busch Gardens in VA is a LITTLE better, in that it at least has a lot of cool landscaping and tries to have a coherent theme, but it’s…

This is how I feel about the entirety of Twitch or really streaming in general. This is obviously a huge and culturally significant thing and I’m just like ya...I’m old and out of touch now. I don’t get it.

I legit didn’t even know this show existed.  But then I hated the ending of HIMYM so much my brain may well just reject anything even adjacent to it. 

I’m not sure you could buy a parking spot for 250k where I live.

There’s an option to do turn based combat in Remake.  But I also agree that while I had way more fun with Remake then I thought I would, I wish there was a proper upgrade of the original available.

I think...ya.  I think sooner then we think we’re going to have to answer some serious morality questions about whether we should be able to just turn off an AI or not.

If an adult wants to be ridiculous on tv....that’s their choice.  But the kids have no say in it, and I don’t think it should even be legal.  I feel the same way about it’s replacement, the family vloggers. 

Probably because, at least as of my writing this, it hasn’t been officially said to be.  TMZ is reporting it saying “people close” have said so, but there’s been no official statement.  I’d rather them wait for that before reporting on it.

Just as like, random example, most of what’s here if I found just like, a print of somewhere, I’d never guess.  https://pixai.art/

States rights. Ya right. People knew that wouldn’t be the end of the story. There were quite a few voices talking about a nation wide ban, and THAT thought is terrifying. That’s a thing that drove people to vote.

I’ve seen quite a lot of AI art that if nobody had told me I never would have known. I don’t think a bunch of artist alley volunteers will be able to 100% it either. Unless they really wanna stir up chaos (or something is REALLY obvious)this is probably more of a “please don’t do this” in a strongly worded way.

It has been, but they used covid as an excuse to have a bunch of new policies and cuts that everyone hates.  Things definitely got way worse way faster after 2020, least at Disney World.  I’m not as familiar with what’s going on at Disneyland. 

So long as you have a park hopper, you can still go to Epcot like that if you want to.  You just can’t park hop til 2pm.  It still is an awful system and I hate it though.

Thing is they probably could do ok selling collectables and stuff if any of it was like...good.  That seemed to be the plan when they bought Think Geek but then they just abandoned it.  What’s in there is mostly crap that no actual fan of anything wants but is the kind of thing that a clueless relative that only knows…

Ya, I was there at the time.  EVERYONE, regardless of sex, hated Barney.  I certainly did.  Misogyny had nothing to do with it.  There’s just something about it that is irritating AF, and it was EVERYWHERE.

Olive Garden is the place nobody particularly LOVES, but everyone in a group of people can agree on and be ok with.

I think a lot of people are also snagging them in the hopes of them someday being valuable, since, while it boggles my mind, a ton of upscale streetwear companies stuff skyrockets in value.  Difference though is that these things are being super mass produced, not a limited edition drop of like 300.
