Great list, I’ll add some more
Is it a scam?
Also yes, definitely.
I’ve never had a CD/DVD R last more than a year anyway, even when using expensive media and slow burn speeds. So its not exactly archival.
anyone remember when the argument for digital goods was " We wont have to waste money on boxes, printing, media, storage, or shipping! So your goods will be cheaper than ever, and everyone will still get a more profitable cut!"
Pepperidge farm Remembers, because Pepperidge farm called bullshit on the argument back at the very start, and said they would get rid of physical media, not lower prices, and that we would lose ownership of our purchases… and the internet poopoo’d me to hell in back calling me paranoid and stupid for it.
and look where we are.
and its so goddamn fucked up I don’t even get a single molecule of serotonin from being right about it.
I miss waking up at 3am to see what the new 4 hour deals with crazy discounts would be.
See, the trick is to own everything.

they also love spitting on 9 year olds who dare to wear shorts and t-shirts in the middle eastern summer, and call them whores and harlots.

how is everyone remembering their ICQ number?
I forgot mine 5 minutes after adding it to Trillian.
Like I said, its intentional. Nothing to fix because its doing exactly what they want. Cause they want you to install the app, which they have much greater control over and ability to harvest from.
its cause of the stupid way mega downloads file to your ram, and only when its fully downloaded does it get moved to the drive or something along those lines, its been a while since i’ve looked into it.
Its megas limitation by intentionally doing shit a stupid way then blaming the browser for it.
what is it with asshole streamers always ending up being pedophiles?
He had to be doing something inappropriate for him to get blasted off twitch and his own gaming company and shit.
Just because it wasnt enough for him to be arrested doesnt mean it wasnt harmless. Probably just means he got caught to quickly.
Israel: “Oh, Thats a shame furiously launches more attacks against aid workers”
It fits.
Considering thats how its been my whole life.
Someone in my family once got severe burns on their hands cause i told them a pot was hot (It had been sitting on a grill, not like…a turned off stove where it had time to cool), to not touch it, and they rolled their eyes at me and said “what do you know” and picked it up… And yet it was my fault their hands were in bandages afterwards.
