In some ways yes and in some ways no.

Data and information are now more widely available than ever. Of course, misinformation is also more widely available than ever.

The new web feels devoid of passion/ humanity. Gone are the days of self funded sites that existed "just because". Now everything has to generate revenue to stay afloat. I do miss the days where it felt special to be on the Internet, whether you were hosting content or observing it.

Massachusetts are you ok?

And to embolden his fan base. It's a win-win for him.

I'm in the "they killed third party app support" camp. There was no way I was switching to their app. I quit cold turkey the day API access was shut down.

Amazing

It's a good idea to do that where you can, but some engines mount their oil filters sideways or even upside down.

In these cases, some cars have a "clear flood" mode that will let you crank the engine without it starting. You can use this to pump oil though the engine for 5-10s and help prime your oil filter. For instance on Subarus you can hold the accelerator to the floor while you try to start it to engage this mode.

Yes and no. For example I've seen this response to the argument "new music is bad". It's a valid response to "I think something is bad, why does anyone enjoy it?"

Some dudes are longer than others.

Elon didn't program a thing. He paid a crony to do it for him.

That looks absolutely fantastic. Well done!

In loving this sort of alternate reality we're getting to see with these ports. What if GTA3 made it to the Dreamcast? What if Doom for 32X were more optimized and had better development? What if the power of the N64 was better understood when Mario 64 came out?

All these scenarios and many more are playing out thanks to some wonderful projects. I look forward to seeing how Wipeout might have looked on a console that so badly wanted to be a part of the PSX/Saturn/N64 battle.

Sledgehammer in my ass

Don't hit us with that click bait. Give us the name in the title.

How do you differentiate old from new? I can just create a fresh copy of whatever I'm storing and it'll look new.

But the Amazon doesn't make money so it's really just taking up space

Rappers used to rap about trying to be like Trump. I can even think of a skit where Method Man had him make a voice memo for him on one of his albums.

People idolized him because of his rich image, unfortunately.

B88B88 is DOODOO with a reflection

It created a genre. And it was surprisingly competent at what it sent out to do. In hindsight it was a miracle. Brand new technology harnessed to birth the 3D platformer. It was amazingly ambitious all around.
