That’s it right here boys and girls. The only defining factor for utility: Can it fit a sheet of plywood. God help you if you just prop it up - you gotta limp it home if you do that! Needs to sit flat in the bed!

Everything else is a fucking toy.

Like did you evolve your entire personality around the disturbing characters? Or did you watch them a couple times, quote a few lines here and there?

There is a line and if you are worried people don’t like you anymore because of these movies you probably crossed into the former. The movies are not problematic, but unfortunately the way some people get into them is.

To emphasize: This is not automatically your fault because you enjoyed watching a show.

Media is full of things like this and there a few people that take fandom too far. They are characters and we are intended to hate the characters. Should we feel empathy as we watch their journey? Yes but empathy shouldn’t forgive the crimes they commit. We can feel a connection to their pain but take the lesson and instead of idolize, try to do better.

I watch other people play the games. Then when I’m tired I close my eyes and I have a nap. I can wake up, fully rested and maybe get to see the final boss! Or not. Maybe I just go to bed.

Grew up with ms-dos. Spent half my career in telnet and ssh consoles.

When I just want to play Balatro at the end of a long day fuck any system that requires more than click click to get me in.

That’s why I’m switching to Linux when windows 10 is no longer supported because fuck win 11 and the amount of regedits it’s gonna take to get that working.

Nooooooo!!! My comment was strictly meant for entertainment! This was not legal advice!

Yup, not at first. Mickey’s gloves are actually a great example as they come into public domain this year as the first film where he wears those comes up next. (IIRC, INAL, don’t go violating copyright law based on a comment on the interwebs.)

We need to convince the billionaires that this is the cool thing for them to do…

BB being able to protect itself from the big players is actually a success story of patents. The 800 lb gorilla’s of the industry never made as good of a keyboard, but if they could have copied BB’s superior design, they would have stomped them in a heartbeat.

There’s a lot of shit about what happens for a dying company and selling patents and so forth that absolutely is scummy. Serious discussion needs to happen there, but calling for them to be abolished? That’s just naive.

My brain is itchy now.

Some things are more important.

In the movie the glasses let the wearer see the truth. This template is often used backwards but it’s correct in this case.

I’ve noticed this and really thought it was the website. All sides lose.

Enshittification at its finest.
