BBC did, but it’s seemingly inactive now.

It was back in the 80s

😂 Space Karen

Stoned me just stared at it, delayed…

Thanks for saying something or I’d still just think I was losing it 🤪

But for people using YouTube to follow textile patterns, photoshop tutorials, repairs, etc. needing to pause frequently while still seeing the full screen is a big deal 😬

I use Ublock Origin and Firefox/DDG’s “view here”, so I think I’m safe…

Edit: Also, Google is greedy af, so it’s def cumulative with existing ads; the article doesn’t say otherwise.

It was June last year, and I was high, so I just know it was instrumental from this channel’s playlist, sorry: (I think the twitch account is defunct now.)

Thanks, I’ll have a listen :)

I’ll have a look at your link/list, thanks :) FF clears everything when I close it (intentional) and I have YouTube history off. I really don’t know how I lost my bookmarks, haha.

I will have a listen, thanks :)

Thanks, I’ll check it out :)

Haha, but if we do, they will follow in a gross and painful fashion: In Canada, 83% of the population received at least one dose. I believe we are 39M 40M now (lol, I was sleeping).

So 6,800,000 gonna keep the electricity going; grow and process food; and perform medical procedures? --Oh wait, all the medical people are dead. Speaking of dead, there aren’t any firemen to dispose of the 33,200,000 bodies! Damn, biohazard everywhere. I’m assuming their edjumacashun didn’t be gud, so I’m not hopeful of their prospects for rebuilding, but I suspect rage will take out who is left before it gets to that point anyways.

Edit: Math is hard

I’m a woman and I don’t have any social media. I just don’t see the value in it when the cost is tracking and ads.

Honestly, it’s not great to assume that someone is “arrogant and judgmental” because they don’t fit in your boxes :|

Thank you. I left Twitter when the petulent child took over, but I lament not being able to read local emergency info. I’ll check these out.

I’m super tired and thought for a millisecond that was going to say CLIPPY.

It’s more comedy.

“But of course, in Bedford Falls, it was always Christmas Eve.”

(If there are any Red Dwarf fans)

Edit: Its probably rude for me not to leave a summary: Red Dwarf was a phenomenal BBC sci-fi comedy in the 80s. I’m referencing the book Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers wherein a game, Better than Life, leaves people festering and wasting away in reality as they’re hooked up to a headset living a virtual utopia.

I’m in Canada, where the bless-ed weed has been legal, federally, for five years. Please do it, USians! We need research done on the myriad of benefits medicinal marijuana has to offer.

While I agree lootboxes are shite, and was dismayed when they brought them in, you can have them turned off in PoE if you have a compulsive/gambling issue (email support and they disable the purchase). Also, anything in a lootbox goes to the shop after the league ends, so you can just purchase the item. They also give a crap tonne of skins as challenge rewards for leagues, so you always be stylin’.

As for difficulty-- it has a steep learning curve! But once you get your sea legs (and later, Path of Building; free, community run) it’s impossible to go back to something like Diablo, imo. The intricacy and constant new leagues are the only reasons I’m still playing it seven years later :)
