When you need service, but data is blocked by all the steel in the ceiling/roof. I've used it, but with my VPN active. I wonder if they're now going to try to block VPN services?

Given I hadn't heard about it prior to your comment, I'd venture to say it's already working

Yeah, them deciding that no stage is sacred and not allow for any offline or private play was extremely frustrating and made it so that I just lost the ability to give a shit at all about the game

I'd say that's Not Unusual at all...

So that's how you get a crowd of people to be happy with hearing Photograph!

"Valleys" was the key word there. Even if the distance isn't bad, a mountain between you and the broadcast tower can make 20 miles look like 70 in terms of signal

Gotta say, I'm pretty content with kbin

Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.

Unpopular opinion, but I thought his single, Oh Fuckles, It's Knuckles, was a masterpiece

Congrats from across the pond. I hope we in the US might soon see similar figures...

I provide technical support for lottery machines on Maine (and other states). Tomorrow's gonna be fun...

Yeah, the key problem here is that any open forum, of any considerable popularity, since the dawn of the Internet has had to deal with shit like CSAM. You don't see it elsewhere because of moderators. Doing the very job Op does. It's just now, Op, you're in the position. Some people can, and have decided to, deal with moderating the horrors. It may very well not be something you, Op, can do.

Twitter 3.0?

I've seen the "Microsoft should just buy Unity" argument a lot lately. And while I think it's probably a better management than current, I imagine Microsoft is hesitant having only just come out of a, what, 6 month long legal battle in US and EU courts regarding acquisition of ActiBliz? So a good idea, but one I can imagine might not happen...

Something something, going green is expensive?

They were certainly Bethesda games. I'm not even remotely fond of multiplayer fallout. But for 4, it's a marvelous modding world that I've sunk over a thousand hours into.

Someone in marketing thought that sounded cooler and would make more sales

What makes you think modders aren't interested in making quests? Have you seen Fusion City Rising for Fallout 4?

To be fair, a considerable number of cartoons actively portray exactly that.

Because radio stations' DJs would say "and here's artist with song name", I firmly believed that one of two things must be true:

Radio stations had the bands always playing live for them

And/or

Radio stations would present a local DJ, but they would then tune in to the artist playing the track live for a larger station

What's even funnier about this is that my dad has at the time taught me how to use a tape deck to record radio and CDs to tape. So I clearly understood recording mediums. Just, the idea still lingered in my mind for a while.
