Superman 64 does NOT. It’s memory is enough to topple a nation.

- Comment on ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP? 3 days ago:
Not sure why you’re downvote, you’re absolutely right. People scan for open ports all day long and will eventually find your shit and try to break in. In my work environment, I see thousands of login attempts daily on brand new accounts, just because something discovered they exist and want to check it out.
- Comment on It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have caused unlawful government. 4 days ago:
One aspect of the U.S. Second Amendment that I struggle to understand is how owning firearms can be seen as a check against government power in the modern era. No matter how much money an individual spends on collecting weapons, they can never match the resources of a government with access to advanced technology like orbital GPS networks, fighter jets, drones, bioweapons, logistics, and nuclear weapons.
No shit they’ll just burn your place to the ground Tulsa style. USA is quickly becoming North Korea.
- Comment on Does seeing daylight create an illusion of being a little more warm? 5 days ago:
Was talking to a friend about this a few years back and we never looked very far into it, but we thought maybe it was just nature saying “go to sleep!” And warming you up to calm the fuck down and rest.
- Comment on Does seeing daylight create an illusion of being a little more warm? 5 days ago:
Definitely does to me. If I stay up all night, around 7 or 8 am I get super hot, like my body is pissed. Without fail, morning brings massive body head increase without sleep.

I think it’s just an adapter because the holes are different size, so this goes in the larger hole to fit the spindle. I’ve never used a record either though so…

Still doesn’t explain if you don’t have at least some knowledge of it

They built it this way on purpose, hostile takeover, then let the shit happen. Like the other guy posted, the quality or source of the ad doesn’t matter, could go straight to a scam site, so fuck them. Block anything you don’t want. Ads are about 10-12% of all my network traffic according to pihole reports. That’s entirely too much.
And sure you don’t have to use YouTube, but where else are you going to go that has more hours of video than you got days left on this planet? The destroyed other video sites to create the shithole that many people depend on. Don’t act like you don’t use it.

Back in the day you accepted it because it wasn’t full on tracking you, wasn’t building profiles on you, wasn’t infiltrating all your search history just to sell you shit. It was a banner, you clicked or you didn’t. Enshittification hadnt happened.
Now? Block it all!!

I won’t watch YouTube without an ad locker. Used to pay for premium for years through VPN in turkey, was like $4/ month for family plan. But now they region lock parent methods. So back to you block origin and Firefox in addition to a pihole setup that blocks hundreds of thousands of ad sites. Fuck advertisements.
- Comment on Did YouTube just disable video playback for people using adblockers or is it just me? 1 week ago:
CTRL SHIFT R can help too, forced refresh of all cached data.

Plus they’re not going to run you down, they’re going to taser you in the back and watch you face plant into the asphalt. They don’t give a fuck. They’re going to dog pile and twist your arm until you “comply”, no need to communicate more than that. Comply or die. Bullet will outrun you every time. Fuck cops.
- Comment on Why is having a lawyer present during police interviews "opt in" rather than "opt out"? 2 weeks ago:
That’s fair point is they do this a lot more than you or I do most likely.

For-profit prisons is a farce against humanity.
- Comment on Why is having a lawyer present during police interviews "opt in" rather than "opt out"? 2 weeks ago:
Also the fact that they don’t give a fuck about your rights, just their numbers or their own form of personal punishment against you.
- Comment on Why is having a lawyer present during police interviews "opt in" rather than "opt out"? 2 weeks ago:
TV shows and propaganda in the US have for decades shown you that " if you have nothing to hide then you don’t need a lawyer" and unfortunately that is demonstrably false. Police are expert interrogators and you alone have a very low chance of getting anything across.
And now with for profit prisons it makes sense to get you in jail rather than help you know your rights and protect you.
