Piracy creates a copy, it does not remove the original like theft does. Also, people have a variety of reasons to pirate. Content not available in their country, wanting to test something before buying it, already having the thing in some form,but piracy being easier…
Language evolves
I got banned from /r/Gamingcirclejerk for “being a man” and for calling out a mod for their misandry. Or rather, despite asking a few times, the whole mod team, assuming it’s more than one person.
Nah, it’s been invalidated several times and yet they hopelessly cling to it as if it still meant something. And if some LGBTQ+ friendly film happens to bomb or at least not make that much profit, they will parrot it once again with further gusto.
One would imagine that the DX fanbase would be aware of what a bad idea this is, just think back to HR and the replacement chip thing… Now imagine that without there even being a replacement, that they’d have implemented all that in secret.
As if the cops weren’t either among these assholes or at least on their side.
Tbh, I didn’t even look at the game itself, I was too distracted by the title.
Am I the only one bothered by the half of an acronym? Like either call it sci-fa or science-fantasy…
Why even shorten the science at that point?
I would sub, but… From what I’ve seen, blahaj zone admins and users both seem a little unhinged…
I guess Spotify could (and arguably should) add a feature to scan your device for the file, instead of you having to go add it manually. Is that what you meant? Because you comment comes across as you wanting the song to somehow be available on all of your devices despite you having it on only one…
If a raise of one dollar is that big of a deal, you probably couldn’t afford spotify to begin with.
This is a jab at Muskrat and his rebranding of the birdshite, I mean site, to X…
Most other nations don’t pretend to be non-violent while people are getting lynched my mobs…
Ah, but you see, dem black folks, them ain’t a part of tha community, dey’re notting but second-class.
You know how it goes, fashion goes in cycles and so does everything else. Plus, new idiots are always born and somehow they manage to survive to the age where they do some of the most blatantly stupid shit…
people even shortened to Insta
Everyone shortens it to insta, Facebook gets shortened to fb or face, youtube to yt or tube. Very few websites don’t get shortened, and those are usually the ones with short names, sometimes even monosyllabic names. Twitch, you can’t shorten that (at least no in any reasonable way), tiktok, and so on.
The rest of your comment stands, I just took umbrage with your implication that Brazil is somehow different in shortening names of apps and platforms. They might do it more often than others, but they’re not unique or special just for doing it.
Given the recent string of new remakes being announced, and how Square has been re-releasing updated versions of their old games for modern platforms, I wonder if this will get at least the latter soon.
Or that use old machines because they work and their entire workflow is based on it. Like, I remember someone (might have been LGR… it was some retro computing youtuber at least) mention that they knew a print shop or something that was still using like win98 or 2000 for their entire production (as in, handling the printing, setting the size etc.) and maybe even the sales terminal…
And I’ve read horror stories of places like machining shops running their cnc setup off of a win98 machine because the cnc router or whatever it’s called just won’t work over anything but parallel port, or that the software needed for that specific router doesn’t run on newer machines.
I don’t get why you would be hesitant at a discounted lasering… Discounts are not the same thing as a cheaper option that costs as much as the discounted price. Just compare it with anything else you’re able to get on a discount. A phone, for example. Would you think that the 500$ won’t perform as well if sold for 250$? No, it will perform just the same. But a phone that costs that 250$ from the onset, that is going to usually be worse than the 500$ one bought at half off.
So, a proper lasik surgery costs 1500$ (A price I found with a quick google search). That’s a bit steep. But your wife gets lucky and gets the half-off discount. Great, you got 1500$ worth of service for 750$. Now, a lasik surgery that is being offered at the 750$ normally, that would raise a few eyebrows for sure.
This is nothing new, just different words being coded.
