I haven’t been to reddit much since the api fiasco. If it’s not too much trouble can you point me to some obvious bots so i can get a feel for what that looks like?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I’ve felt very comfortable not buying a single ubisoft game since rayman legends, a great game that i use my pirated copy to play because it works better than the DRMriddled version i paid for.

Generally i don’t even bother to steal ubisoft games since i haven’t played a good one (imo) since early early far cry or asscreed2

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Tell ya what, i bet if every production company magically disappeared tomorrow we would still have new shows. It’d start out like the early days of youtube (my favorite btw) but in my (perhaps unusual) opinion Netflix, disney, sony, et al are more a barrier to quality content than a benefit.

I mean, how many really really good things did you watch last year? What interesting, unusual things might we have seen this year if marvel 25 and spidweman 15 etc weren’t taking up all the air?

A bad take from a good person. I like your history so i want you to think about this…Don’t get mad at or direct hate towards passionate people. The world needs them to make stuff for the rest of us schlubs who spread our attention thin. Besides, isn’t some of that annoyance, just a little of that prickly feeling, jealousy?

I get the feeling you’re expressing here, i do. I’ve felt it myself. I personally have wondered why, and done some self-reflection and considered maybe this is my answer. If it makes sense then maybe it is your answer too. Whatever you’re reason for feeling this way, the next thing to ponder is is whether expressing this emotion to others has a practical use for them to hear, out for you to say.

This one is a feeling that is useless to everyone especially yourself.

it is one to recognize as a failing and to work on, not to express in a forum as an emotion to be proud of

the_post_of_tom_joad,

or only ones that came out in 2023?

You got it! i dug into my anime backlog last year too, but I’ve not seen of early 2000s stuff. Will you tell me what your liked?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Ok i need to check some of these out since our tastes appear similar. Thank you for sharing, and with a little write up for each too! Appreciate the “wall of text”

I want to reciprocate, but like i said i haven’t seen many from that era. An exception is wolfs rain from 2003. Its probably my fav anime of all time actually, so if yu haven’t seen it, it might be right up your alley.

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Do i need to make a nesting meme in this thread to show you mooks that you’re literally doing the meme right now?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I game, like a lot, and if windows beats me one more time i swear I’ll leave them for good. Is there a list of supported games? I just hit their site and only saw an nvidia gpx drivers too, did i simple miss the AMD stuff?

Yarp i like being an adult, it’s the part about the world being poo and the assumption that it’s responsibility to fix it that I’m hatin’.

I’m fine with taxes but i should still have hopes! I should still get to do fun! It’s not fair that the fun got all sucked out! It’s all been sucked out! And it wasn’t even too terribly long ago.

I hear lots of stories (i bet y’all have too) from people who have worked any job for 10-20 years about how much more fun or at least laid back it used to be.

Being an adult should be fun. I should get to, with my adult freedoms, do the things i dreamed of as a child! I don’t need to have the white ferrari testarossa from Miami vice but i should have the house and a nice life where i can take a month or two off every year.

Yes i should Bygawad!

Ok to finish my very serious missive, It’s not being an adult that’s the sucky part, it’s definitely the poo world.

I’m glad to hear zombo resisted enshittification

Take a look at this. It’s a bunch of testimoniess from IDF soldiers about what happened when theie military ran similar operations in 2014. Looks like this is generally how the IDF operates.

Can’t you enable a filter list on uBlock Origin that removes all cookie consents

What what what?!?! Ive used ublock for years and i didn’t know this

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I don’t understand how someone can have a take this cartoonishly ridiculous in 2024. Are you effin serious me boy? I mean dude.

Maybe you’re just book smart. I… Whew! I don’t like to ad hominem but goddamn

I’m guessing… they don’t want us deciding whether to engage with our phones, they want us looking at them more. If that means less convenience for us we can get fucked

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I used to fuck with friends with my “universal remote”, and of course use my phone whenever i misplaced my own I miss that stupid feature the most

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Is this the thread to troll? I don’t know if people are that invested in lost features that theyd get baited, but get that gator!

the_post_of_tom_joad,

There’s an old song popular long before any of us were born called “what’s wrong with kids today?” about the generation we now call “the greatest”.

Iirc there’s an old Egyptian poem about how “the kids are no good”.

Before there was TV and video games, they used to blame social ills on the kids “reading, instead of living”.

Old heads gon’ shit on the youngins, it’s in our blood

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I admire your passion. How do you feel about peanut butter on a burger?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

“The visual i could follow, but not your condescending attitude”

Oh man gettin sweaty in the math room

the_post_of_tom_joad,

How’s the usps looking these days? You still got that asshole tearing the sorting machines down?

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

What’s your favorite standoff? I only know vanilla and Mexican vanilla

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Ah i did the thing, oops. Good luck on your negotiations :D

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

I suppose I’ll be taking my milk steak to go then?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

hmm, looks like my link still works… clicking on any of those words should take them to the answer, which is a bit too involved for me to summarize :). if for some reason your client isn’t reading it, here’s the naked link:
