Does anyone else remember when Windows 98 would let you change your DVD drive’s region, but only let you do it five times total before you were permanently locked into the region you selected the fifth time?

I was so tempted to change the setting just for fun, but never did because the warning message scared the shit out of 12-year-old me.

I didn’t know they offer same day shipping on mail-order brides now.

Thanks for the tip. I’ve only ever worked for one extreme or the other.

For me the issue is not only the bad writing, but the over saturation of content as well.

There are just too many spinoffs and sequels now, ever since Disney bought the rights. I got bored of The Mandalorian halfway into season 1. Same goes for Obi Wan. Rogue One was great, but I didn’t bother with Solo or even Episode IX. Stopped paying attention after that.

The only Star Wars content I’m looking forward to is the remake of Knights of the Old Republic, and only because the original was among the best RPGs I’ve ever played. Couldn’t care less about anything else. Disney killed off my enthusiasm for the franchise. Maybe I just wasn’t as much of a fan as I thought I was…

Any psychedelic, really. I’ve had these kind of revelations on 25i, for example, which is one of the more visual, less enlightening psychs. It’s literally like what people who have never touched the stuff think LSD is like, but I still had thoughts like this on the stuff.

I remember hitting 1000 subscribers on YouTube. I’m still proud of that achievement.

Okay somebody please explain the joke/reference I’m not understanding. Or is OP just schizophrenic?

Oh shit, I use Shut Up 10. Might explain why I haven’t had any issues lol. I forgot I had installed it (ADHD).

Well that explains it, lol. I don’t use MS Office products.

Again, I’ve never seen this before in my Save As dialog in neither Windows 10 or 11.

11, and what do you mean by “configuring OneDrive away”?

Dell, actually. Back in 2004 when they stated making gaming laptops with “upgradable” graphics cards. Except you could only upgrade within the same generation. So go fuck yourself if you actually wanted the latest GPU.

Also the motherboard failed twice on me. Thankfully within warranty but never again.

Desktop, of course, simply for upgradability and better thermal management.

I have an AM5 system, so I’ll be able to upgrade not only my graphics card, but my CPU as well, and have a modern machine that’ll last me well into the 2030s. These days you can’t even upgrade your RAM on most laptops.

There’s also the fact that I don’t really feel the need to game on the go, and modern smartphones have fulfilled my need to have a portable computer for everything else. When I did own a gaming laptop, I paid way too much money for it, and the battery didn’t even last an hour playing something as basic as The Sims, so it had to be plugged in all the time like a desktop anyway. Within 4 years the GPU was too old to run anything at a reasonable framerate. Never buying a gaming laptop again.

Where are people finding these stereotypical office jobs that allow for so much downtime? In every office I’ve worked in, the calls and tickets would just keep coming in non-stop. I was always too busy to have time to look like I’m busy.

Get rid of gendered sports. Next, legalize steroids for women; keep them illegal for men. Solves part of the problem, but I have no idea how trans people would fit into this scenario, though.

When does this scenario ever come up? I’ve never had the file save dialog try to default to OneDrive.

Okay that’s kinda badass. That said, I can only stand wearing my contacts for 8 hours tops before my eyes start screaming for oxygen, and the slightest deformity in the lens makes them unwearable from the irritation. So I wonder how long these will be able sit in my eyes until they’re too uncomfortable.

What mobile clients are those and why are people using them? The image displays perfectly in Voyager.

Count me as one of those people. I just don’t understand what everyone likes about it so much. It’s a highly quotable, but otherwise boring movie.

Or The Sixth Day starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
