When we realized we could watch porn on them.

Most who have lived it are dead.

Looks like a slice of pie/cake.

Starship Troopers is peak sci-fi in that it holds up a mirror for society to see the ugly bits.

The best games are ports to be honest. I recently downloaded Peglin, which is supposedly a pc port. It has a free trial and no IAPs and is an entertaining little timekiller.

It’s not the leaving trolleys on people’s ways that drives me insane. It’s two people chatting about bullshit in the aisle of the supermarket while blocking the path that has me seeing red.

Beating up someone because they decided the middle of the aisle of my local supermarket was a great place to park their trolley to talk to some other bastard about bullshit nobody cares about while I’m trying to get my shopping over with as fast as possible.

Good thing I get most of my groceries delivered theses days.

Depends on the country and the type of lootboxes. In the Netherlands for example lootboxes with items that cannot be purchased or traded otherwise are legal. Lootboxes with items that may have monetary value are considered a form of slot machine gambling.

From Screenrant.com:

*Netherlands’ Laws About Loot Boxes

Overwatch Loot Box In April of 2018, the Netherlands Gaming Authority conducted a study of 10 unnamed games, and concluded that four of the games were in violation of Netherlands laws concerning gambling. To be exact, the study said (via PC Gamer), “that the content of these loot boxes is determined by chance and that the prizes to be won can be traded outside of the game: the prizes have a market value.” In order to sell such items in the Netherlands a license is required but given the current laws, no license can be given to game companies, so “these loot boxes (were) prohibited.” The loot boxes used in the other games were deemed legal because they lack “market value.” According to the study, those loot boxes whose prizes wouldn’t be traded constituted a low risk for gambling addiction, being akin to “small-scale bingo.” The marketable loot boxes though, those which are banned in the country, “have integral elements that are similar to slot machines.”*

But what about the system being so fucked up that getting much needed help is only for the rich?

DuckDuckGo still lets you search, view and save images without going to the webpage.

Better privacy too.

Pretty stressful if you’re a dinosaur
