It’s a mini trivia game at the link, you answer and then it goes into the history a bit
- Comment on Report: Majority of US teens have lost trust in Big Tech 2 days ago:
Big Tech though the teens were on their side? LMAO
Teens escaped to social media for a space somewhat free of parental authority.
Now SM is starting to emulate that authority and they thought the teens would be cool with that‽
What dum mf’s I swear

- Comment on This YouTuber Claims A Charity Using Roblox Could Be Squandering Their Players' Money 4 days ago:
However, the kids who play these games, donate, and urge other kids to do the same, are all being exploited three ways to Sunday.
Hate to break it to you, but most kids dgaf about “the cause” I bet the “donation” unlocks a weapon or hat or secret bonus level or something and that’s what they want
A scummy company is a scummy company, doesn’t mean the children are being exploited per se, they could literally have an in-game sign that said “Give me a robux and you can get this hat for your character” and theyd probably get kids to pay for it just the same
- Comment on I tried to make the ultimate Commodore 1702 monitor 6 days ago:
Idk I think CRTs just have a certain charm, kinda like the sounds of a running old IDE hard drives from back in the day.
Plus, only really expensive LCDs can even come close to the refresh rate of a CRT and emulation of the “CRT effect” is only so good.

- Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb 1 week ago:
I’m aware, I’ve done heavy research for my own mass cold archival plans.
It’s a physics problem is why it lags behind HDDs so much, and to reach that 6TB on optical it’s a cartridge with literal multiple discs inside. Adoption or no, it was never going to reach storage density parity with HDDs. Hell, even SSDs are having a difficult time taking on HDDs storage density
- Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb 1 week ago:
Biggest one could take 2TB per disc
I mean it’s cool for a disc, but HDDs still beat that, Seagate just released a 36TB HDD to mass market, optical always lags behind on storage density and speed

For all their efforts in DRM, Netflix et al have thus far failed to prevent people from ripping their highest quality streams and torrenting them
My setup has had 0 issues grabbing the latest “streaming only” content very quickly after release

Jellyfin/Plex + Sonarr/Radarr + Usenet + HDDs/SSDs
HDDs/SSDs are a form of physical recordable media with FAR more capacity and speed than any optical medium
