For DVDs, I’ve never had an issue. They just amplified the BS on BluRays tenfold.
I went the route of a physical collection, but man do they make it difficult unless you get a commercial player that is likely to have ads and doesn’t integrate well into a home theater setup.
I’ve taken to doing everything I can to play things through my computer, but they do everything in their power to make them unplayable. This includes things like adding hundreds of bogus playlists so you don’t know which one to play, adding extra layers of encryption that cause image corruption a few chapters into the movies, and more.
If they just allowed you to easily watch and rip the movies that I pay actual money for, I think a lot more people would be open to a physical collections of their favorites. As it stands, I can’t really recommend it.
Boy do I have the product for you: https://youtu.be/F_HOrMmWoMA?si=sNxyxbwaKOnZiPqW
Nah. Sun just acts as the Queen Atom. Without it, you’d end up with a Helvetica Scenario. This is basic science.
I’ve found it useful for getting approaches to programming projects. Rarely does it completely solve my problems, but it keeps me headed in the right direction.
I’m also partway through making my first ARG and it’s super useful for generating ideas, especially when I feed it my established lore because it can keep ideas within that universe.
I’ve found overall, it’s best to use it to fill in the gaps on ideas I have in general. I theoretically could make all of the content myself from scratch, but I’m honestly terrible at all the little details in many cases. It allows me to not dwell on the little stuff.
Don’t forget about Gormanuary
Thank you so much! It’s been a heck of a journey. I’ve learned a ton and honestly never thought I’d get to this point. I’ll try to remember to come back and let you know when the album drops.
Nah. CMM go beep, beep, beep, beep… beep, beep….
ChatGPT provided a pretty good response to this, so MS likely added some clauses to avoid anything negative regarding themselves.

Where’s the turtle and elephants?
I’m definitely the odd one out here. I’ve had the same $10 set that’s carried me through probably a dozen campaigns.
There’s actually a channel I’ve been following on YouTube that covers dead online games (https://youtube.com/@RyeGamesOfficial?si=IR7AL-ZcQFCynoWO). It’s actually interesting because many of them will have a small dedicated player base of veterans, but otherwise, they usually just get forgotten.
I still miss Hangouts + Voice
It’s kind of magic how we are finding that having a third party resolves a lot of the issues. I wonder if the future structure will rely on more of a Prompt > Filter AI > Generative AI > Filter AI > Output. It seems ChatGPT and the Bing implementation have at least some level of AI detection on the image side already.
I just don’t understand what people were expecting. I expected Skyrim in Space and got that. Expecting a true space sim on top of that? That’s an entirely different ask. I’ve got E:D and NMS if I want to spend hours hopping from one system to the next and deal with space physics. But if I want a story, Starfield is delivering for me.
I speak from experience that no one other than professionals should be handling their own mail servers in 2024. I worked for a mail host. The amount of spam and attacks that befall a mail provider, even a small one, is bonkers. Plus, mail is just too damn important.
I wish it wasn’t the case because the idea of everyone privately hosting their own mail servers would be pretty awesome. Sadly the modern internet makes it way too risky.
