how has that never occurred to me?? holy shit

They are not comparable in my view. One is owned by Facebook, known for MITMing smartphones via a VPN app and successfully intercepting and decrypting traffic from competing apps.

The other is widely regarded to be the best option for most people and most uses cases for privacy and security.

napster, kazaa, limewire, audiogalaxy are the big ones I remember in the pre-torrent era

hell I remember there were PCs at some kiosk at the mall that random folks had installed Napster on and a bunch of random folks had downloaded random stuff on.

I burned so many audio CDs. Even if it was just to add one single new song, since one song could take like an bour or so to download before we got broadband.

When mp3 cd players became a thing, that was a magical time. Before iPods and before the Creative Nomad, WAY cheaper, and some could even read CD-RWs.

I even sold a few mix CDs, with nicely formatted printouts for the slim jewel cases.

What an era.

Shakshuka, Japanese curry, misir wot (ethiopian spicy red lentils). to name a few

can I tell an AI to burn exactly that on Jan 1 doing absolutely nothing, and then never touch the shit for the rest of the year?

They would quit working at the old company before they start work at the new one. usually there wouldn’t be overlap.

IAM and Route53?

Wolfenstein games have all been pretty solid. Youngblood wasn’t the best but I still got plenty of enjoyment from it.

Metal Gear is Metal Gear.

Twin Peaks’ perfect third season earns it a spot in my list too.

Space Station 14, while only being around five or six years, is still a continuation of Space Station 13 which has decades of culture and development built into it

Maybe a bit of a stretch but the Porsche 911 seems like a solid car for its whole lifetime, even if the modern ones are too big and heavy it’s cool they’re still rear engine

except the chocolate popcorn at Seattle’s Cinerama SIFF Cinema. That stuff is to die for.

based on his voice work as Skips from Regular Show, most definitely he’s actually got the chops for it.

That’s what you signed up for tho.

Go on! Smile while you makin that thick ass shake

Flowery Twats!

As if its age has any bearing whatsoever on how enjoyable it is!

Oh wow I had forgotten all about True Detective. That was the one with Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in Louisiana with all the cult symbols and shit? I barely remember it but I do remember really enjoying it.

In any case, absolutely yes, but I would caution against jumping into season 3 of Twin Peaks without any context. it’s really vital to watch at least most of the first two seasons, and for bonus points also watch the movie Fire Walk With Me. But if you don’t wanna go through all that and wanna just inject the Lynchian surrealism directly into your bloodstream, dive in with episode 8 from the third season, it’s an absolute masterpiece of surrealism.

Yah, definitely agreed. I’d still say TNG is required viewing alongside DS9 for a well rounded Trek background.

Some aspects of the show have aged poorly (literal n-bomb dropped at one point for example) so while it’s not in absolute mint condition, it could certainly be viewed and enjoyed in an emergency

The Sopranos. One of the best and most influential TV shows ever made.

Lazor Wulf. Refreshingly quirky and original cartoon about a wolf with a laser on his back.

Three Busy Debras. Almost lethally hilarious comedy trio being superlatively silly.

Twin Peaks. Especially season 3, probably the best single season a TV shoe has ever had.

The best Star Trek series for me is a tie between DS9 and Lower Decks. That’s right, I rank Lower Decks above TNG. It’s THAT good.

Kagi for well over a year now

The better path forward is to drop all this age verification bullshit. Completely and fully stop. NONE of it is needed. NONE of it.
