• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How streaming changed the way you watch TV⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  In the 90s you had to be careful not to touch the Nintendo while playing or else the game might crash. It was still better than today because you didn’t need an internet connection to play your games.

  Don’t Americans do this in real life? That’s what TV taught me.

  I once found a pair of barefoot running sandals online that were otherwise normal with rubber soles etc, but had a copper rivet inserted through the sole to facilitate that connection to earth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who did this 😂😂😂⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨At some point, kids watching older cartoons will no longer understand why putting a thermometer under a desk lamp was a way to skip school.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Kids today don’t know that until quite recently if you turned on the TV and you didn’t get any picture, you could give the thing a firm slap on the side and it would work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone else hate knowing stuff and looking "smart"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s nothing wrong with knowing about things. If I’m deciphering your question correctly, you need to learn to keep your mouth shut. People won’t pester you then.

  That’s right, extremism breeds assholes.

  “Badger, Mushroom, Snaaaaake” on the other hand ages like fine whiskey.

  How? Even though Lemmy has lots of commies, it has nothing to do with communism.

  Wow, that’s way worse than I imagined. No wonder people watch illegal streams!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Italy to require VPN and DNS providers to block pirated content⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With these kind of news from Southern Europe it’s always about pirate football streams. How much does it cost to watch football legally in Italy?

  This is possibly a win against authoritarianism at least. China is a totalitarian state and their rising influence should raise alarm bells in countries who value individual freedom.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Autoplay videos are cancer to me⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree so much. I can’t understand how apparently most people in the world can stand videos that you can’t seek, pause or change the speed of. And which are all in vertical format!
