What’s fumny to me is I remember watching a computer show on TV in late 90s they where interviewing an Adobe representative about the new Photoshop 5.0…
The TV host asked what adobe though about pirated copies and the representative said on LIVE TV that Photoshop price was for professional who make a living out of Photoshop and that any hobbyist had nothing to fear about using a pirated copy as it only served to get more people knowledgable about Photoshop and if these started doing business in photography and neede Photoshop they would then pay for it so to not be unprofessional.
That’s refreshing from the normal News cycle.
Thanks for sharing. BBS’s and epic pinball are the reasons for my interest in computer as a kid. I would watch my friend go on BBS’s and play text based game and download ASCII art all day to the point I learned a lot the got my first real computer (386 sx), I had a coco3 as a kid but that was just BASICS with no floppy or tape to load or save programs.
The 386 was such a new world of possibilities especially with software downloaded from BBS’s, took ages but got lots of kool games and music files (.mod) etc… of course porn for a young teen was also nice lol.
Worst is that it happened before in Japan so the organizers should have known.
But also the blind forever is exaggerated, uvc exposure damage to the eyes is temporary.
Donyou realize that the top 1% is creating around 25% of the pollution with their Jets and yacht etc… and they horde moat of the houses to profit from the fact you need housing. And they create food scarcity to rise the prices etc… so yeah keep thinking you’ll become one of them some day. Even if you made 1 million a year you would still need to live a thousand years to make a billion.
I dont think you can be seen as a very bad landlord like the scum some are if you rent your basement in a fare manner. I believe owning multiple homes to rent them AND get a return on your “investment” when you sell them due to crazy inflation since all the homes are owned by the same groups makes them bad. I don’t know your situation so I don’t judge… Yet. lol.
Fucking rampant corruption everywhere. Do they not realize we are about to fail totally if it keeps going like that ? I mean I make what used do be a descent salary but I’m about to go homeless and lose my car if I can’t find a brake (Of course I can’t some asshole decided to bust my Tire, hurr SUV BAD, why don’t you do it to privet jets instead?)… Sorry had to rant.
If I open a store in my town and start selling fake crap I can’t go and say “sorry not my fault I’m just a reseller you need to deal with the guy who sold it to me” I will be brought to court and loose why is Amazon allowed to sell fakes and non UL complient equipment?
