I mean, fuck Anish Kapoor, but why are you suggesting this as a gift?

Saw him live this past year and he was great!

Canadians celebrate Remembrance Day and I've always appreciated how much of it emphasizes solemn reflection on the horrors and loss associated with conflict.

I'm pretty sure it does

This fucking killed me, love Mr. Terfry.

Yo, Buck 65 is still releasing music? Nice.

Just got the popup on FF with Unlock Origin

Yeah, it really goes against my anecdotal experience of clueless Boomers/Gen Z and generally reasonable Gen X/Millenials. That said my colleagues are technically proficient but our salespeople are consistently falling for scams, regardless of their generation.

What a bummer. I know how good of a resource it can be for tracking down rare physical media but I haven't really followed the seller side of the site. Another great reminder of how prone to enshittification private websites that rely on user labour are.

I stayed at a place last year that had a RokuTV, YouTube was practically unusable on it due to the absurd number of ads that would play. Even more infuriating was that they were often the same ad, repeated.

While I admire your optimism I think that AI will snuff out journalists/writers/artists regardless of the merit of their work. While that is possibly beneficial when looking for some factual data I think we will face a crisis when it comes to creative, investigative and critical content. Like garden hose of original work spraying against a tsunami of undisclosed generative media.

I think you make some valid points about server and network ownership but I think the mid to late 2000s had an interesting blend of corporate and personal internet spaces. Yes there were some leviathans MySpace and Facebook, but a lot of the places that had relevancy were forums, portals or imageboards. Hell, YTMND was an early example of a individual hosting and building a massive site out of complete nonsense. That landscape has certainly changed significantly since.

Mostly BG3 but also finished most of Cruelty Squad, the latter of which was a weird as I hoped.

I appreciated your tone, it was measured and considerate.

Even a lot of CG professional users are locked into NVIDIA due to software using CUDA. It sucks.

Partner is playing Horizon: Zero Dawn and I'm helping with inventory management and tutorial quests.

You can't spell "Bible Study" without "Subtly Bi"
