yup, i was active in the n64 days and we enjoyed early roms :)

does this mean if I pay for streaming my privacy will be respected

Wow you mean a president publicly says one thing but privately does another?

Here’s hoping all countries follow suit

it’s hard to find a show that isn’t on a tracker somewhere

The country of the vpn server does matter, as does the home country. Your traffic may be encrypted and the vpn company may not keep logs, but the datacenters they’re renting likely do. Always favor countries that have the strongest privacy laws. i.e. not the US.

There’s no reason to avoid hoarding!

I’ve resisted them so far 😇

They have so far. It’s still legal to use a VPN without verifying my identity. It’s still legal, though difficult, to access the Internet anonymously. The local police department doesn’t blanket monitor everyone’s search history.

increasingly difficult tech solutions for privacy are a bandaid not a cure.

Same here. My folks caved and bought a second phone line for computing, however it didn’t help. My friend & I would use the first phone line for voice communication :)

The phone pressed to my ear with my shoulder, yelling to my buddy while fighting off cacademons, such good times.

I enjoy the flow of the new Doom Eternal, once you get the hang of it you can keep an infinite supply of health and ammo that only runs out when everything’s dead - and you end up taking on much more than you thought possible.

However the jaw-dropping, frightening game that Doom was in 1993 will never be recaptured. Yes, scary games existed. Yes, 3D FPS existed. But nothing came close to Doom, it was a graphical marvel. I’d show it to friends, grandparents, anyone who’d look and they’d all either be amazed or reach for the bible. Their idea of video games was mario, Doom broke brains.

Doom 2 is what I played most. At the time, playing over a local BBS with my 28k modem (the fastest available!), I could see that network play was the future of gaming.

In the end, you can’t out-tech the law. You need rights.

Maybe your kind isn’t so bad. Thanks for the refund.

It’s nice to read a robot’s perspective on this issue.

Borgbase

oh no my DRM machine is adding more DRM

I keep my passwords in Google. Unencrypted of course

To the wealthy and powerful Taiwanese, yes

muddies the waters of public discussion

Isn’t that The Atlantic’s MO?

The NFL will never get a dime from me for their brain damage sport

oh sweet. I care far more about the backend than frontend

Perhaps capital wasn’t scared of tesla-buyers.

where’s the link

Thiel backstabbed Musk before X became a thing, because he’s a fucking weasel and Musk is a moron government contractor. It’s also really funny he took the company while Musk was on honeymoon.

Has elon musk called anyone a pedo yet?

Those are some dead rich folks
