And for something that is already data-mining you. Adding a fee just adds insult to injury.

I am really liking Linux Mint more and more . . .

Just because a company makes medication in pink and blue colors doesn't mean it's safe to consume! Your first priority show be the safety of the medicine itself.

Buy some Skittles if you want to "taste the rainbow."

Aren't game purchases enforceable contracts? i.e. "I give you money. You give me game that works." ? (I'm avoiding words like "good" because that's subjective and it gets into a whole different discussion)

Yup. Cable TV was amazing back in the 1980s. Almost no ads and great content (I loved "Night Flight" on USA, especially). But it didn't take them more than 10 years to ruin it.

Yup. The game company intros are the first thing I edit out of a game's config files. Especially if they're unskippable.

If you want to know the state of "AI" right now, just try calling customer service or talking to a ChatBot for any company. It's incredibly sh*tty.

You can buy reversible USB cables online. The connector works in either direction. They're pretty neat.

Agreed. If the only that stops some people from committing crimes is the threat of supernatural punishment, then they have the morality of an insect.

Elmo thinks the "X" makes it "extra cool."

I've got the 5TB version of this drive as a backup for my gaming laptop. Haven't had any problems with it.

Yup. Just surprised Pikachu faces all around at Netflix. "But we were assured by our marketing department that customers would just pay any amout we wanted!"

Nah. It's not going to be "AI." It's going to be YouTube results, followed by Reddit results, followed by "Sponsored" results, followed by AI-written Bot results, then a couple pages of Amazon results and finally, on page 10 or so, a ten-year-old result that's probably no longer relevant.

Yeah, if it's in "The Cloud" it's NOT yours and it can disappear or be modified without your knowledge or consent at any time.

Buy some external storage and keep copies of everything you care about.

Every damn day during the Trump presidency would be about some stupid sh*t that Donald said or did. You literally couldn't keep up with it.

"I do not understand. Why does Zuckerberg simply not EAT his competitors?" - Lurr of Omicron Persei 8.

I still have a few niche subreddits that I check a few times a month (like /SamsungWatchFaces) but I haven't posted anything there in ages.

There are many independent developers who deserve your money more than EA. Vote with your wallet.

They're also using YOUR bandwidth to download these ads.

These are the kind of ads you make when you have a profound lack of self-awareness.
