clearleaf,

Are these transcriptions auto generated or are they hand written every time? It’s funny seeing such dry and academic descriptions of goofy images.

clearleaf,

If you don’t like science go live in the woods.

clearleaf,

I like them when they’re off the switch but not when they’re on it.

clearleaf,

Snoop Dogg’s use for the lighter is already covered by “and more” before it gets to Willie Nelson. What is the “so much more” he’s doing with a lighter that doesn’t involve grills, candles, or smoking?

clearleaf,

This is why the android Easter egg should always be a minigame and not just a sprite that changes colours when you tap it.

clearleaf,

They destroyed the world’s largest naturally occuring dorito :(

My friend flipped when the first ever acknowledgement of Mistborn outside it’s own books was Kelsier as a guest character in Fortnite. It was like targeted harassment. I like Mistborn too but it didn’t bother me.

clearleaf,

This might sound crazy but apple earbuds would be good for you. I actually like having pause and skip buttons, and apparently these do have controls when you touch them, but that’s never worked for me. I think it’s intentionally broken on android which in your case makes them good.

clearleaf,

You can get them used thanks to apple fanboys inherent need to get the newest version. There’s lots out there due to that. But I get it if you don’t like the idea of used headphones.

clearleaf,

Imagine the private prison that could be there.

clearleaf,

Ashens has been the most stable and consistent thing in my life since 2008.

It's funny how google pretends the music on YouTube isn't straight up piracy and everyone just goes along with it

Most people have extremely weird ideas of what’s considered piracy and what isn’t. Downloading a video game rom is piracy, but if you pay money to some Chinese retailer for an SD card containing the roms, that’s somehow not piracy. Exploiting the free trial on a streaming site by using prepaid visa cards is somehow not...

clearleaf,

With the SD what you’re talking about is reality but I meant it in terms of normies perceptions. I watched some retro handheld reviews on YouTube and it started surfacing videos about SD cards of retro roms you can buy. There’s always people pointing out that you can just download the same rompack from archive.org, and there are people replying who say that’s piracy. I couldn’t make something like that up if I tried. Here’s another one specifically about YouTube. If you torrent a song, that’s bad. But if you use a YouTube to mp3 website that’s different. My family sees it that way.

clearleaf,

Until it gets copyright claimed then it goes to some Indian company who triple promises they have complete custody of all Ozzy Osbourne IP.

Yeah it’s kind of the entire point I was making. If I could only listen to the music on YouTube that’s been properly licensed and identified, then I wouldn’t use YouTube for music. In that situation it would just be another Spotify.

Here’s an example of something that’s absolutely not supposed to be on youtube, which the IP owner goes to great lengths to enforce. But people keep reuploading every time it’s taken down. It’s literally a bootleg.

clearleaf,

Who cares

Me. We have a living breathing example of why public file sharing is a good thing that exposes music to new audiences and I want people to recognize that.

clearleaf, (edited )

In the eyes of the law it’s piracy. But to me if something is not being sold, it might as well be public domain. And there’s literally no difference between buying a second hand mario 3 cartridge and pirating the rom in terms of money the creators get. That’s way more ridiculous to me than the youtube thing.

clearleaf,

I know this is a joke but people calling it busybox/linux is how I came to understand what makes linux a separate thing from gnu.

clearleaf,

The funniest part is how the artist felt the need to write “the left” and “the right” on the characters as if this highly intellectual commentary is too subtle to understand without help. We’ve reached below the point of crappy editorial cartoons.

clearleaf,

It’s like talking about quitting weed around a stoner. They panic.

clearleaf,

Running the show? What is that supposed to mean? Of course he’s not the king of the entire world but neither is anyone else.
