Yeah but the Mario RPG bit sold it for me lol

Why do people overseas keep getting this wrong?

Because they like dunking on the USA, your explanation doesn’t support that narrative … so nyaaaaaah

No real reason to extinguish here, Microsoft is a services company and can offer those services on Windows and Linux.

I’d wager you’re more likely to see an official compatibility layer on Linux supported by Microsoft before you see them move to extinguish.

not in the slightest.

Most convenient…maybe?

10000% seed off network storage using a pi.

We have no reason to support people who use language, and that support, to spout bigoted shit AND push their authoritarian agenda.

It’s weird how words on a public forum meant for transparency can come back to be used against you and make folks disagree, right?

… what does it mean‽‽‽‽

It has to comply with US laws, is what you mean.

I think generally it is the key feature.

Internet radio existed before pandora came along, pandora was novel in that it implemented the music genome project. The idea of the user selecting the next song was counter to their intent.

Playlists, and/or the user selecting their songs wasn’t exactly novel except for the free2play model w/ads allowing its widespread adoption.

IMO pandora paved the way for the commercial viability of Spotify, now pandora has playlists and you can select individual songs and albums. I still use it just for the music discovery

I’m not entirely sure how selecting the song or songs you want to listen to differs from a playlist, but ok.

I think the concept of a playlist is exactly what you’re describing.

Pandora was initially antithetical to playlists, the concept was utilizing the music genome project to play songs that are like songs you’ve liked, intelligent radio.

Playlists probably was the thing Spotify had that pandora didn’t have that made Spotify get big, you can make playlists now.

I only use pandora because it’s music discovery is so good tbh.

I never moved from pandora to Spotify and could never find a good reason to.

I realize I’m a decade out of the loop, but what did it do better?

Shockingly I am one of them.

But we didn’t hoard.

My ex used to work at a bjs and there was a sale the summer before lockdown AND we’d just bought a house so she had bought like 10 packs…. Had to fill all our empty storage.

Anyways.

October 2024 I purchased my first toilet paper again since 2019.

I guess technically we didn’t buy any DURING the pandemic…

CVEs follow a naming convention, the exploit name is usually given by the researcher/hacker/whoever finds and documents it

Build the city, you did it!

New game, some variations and randomness to events and resources, and that’s all ya needed.

I got all these vaccines and no autism OR better 5G …. All I got was this measly resistance to deadly pathogens.

I’d also like my money.

Can someone explain what a “randomizer” is for a very slow guy who is a lot like me?

Netflix tried to get distribution in Blockbuster and a partnership w/them and were told to fuck off …
