Serious reply: There is a difference between having physical media and preserving the data. Optical discs are one of the worst ways to preserve data. They are susceptible to warping, breakage, and scratches. Keep them in the original case and they take up a lot of room (when compared to the physical space per TB of a…
I tried Reddit Secret Santa a few years back. Put a lot of time, effort, and thought into the package I sent. Never got anything from whomever was my Secret Santa.
I can’t thing of a show or movie that wouldn’t benefit from having Tig digitially added to the cast

As someone who is deeply invested in the Google ecosystem, which includes many many forms of hardware (nearly every Nexus and Pixel phone, Nest around the house, etc) it still amazes me how bad Google is about shipping things out. As one of the largest companies in the world (ever!) you would think they would either…
I only use iTunes to download (and data-hoard) podcasts. I hate it. Is there any other standalone podcast downloader that works better?
No mention of the conspiracy theory that the US government / DEA somehow convinced Pyrex to change their glassware so that it wouldn’t be as useful when cooking meth? Much in the same way that the US government “worked with” pharmaceutical companies in India (mainly but also elsewhere around the world) to stop…
I mean... are we surprised that someone who “saw something good in Hitler” also sees R. Kelly as a good person?
This is when the worst of the “sports-bro” types see that there is money in esports and try to get in on it. Barstool is a cesspool.
