Devouring the queen and flattening pawns with one punch.
AliExpress is great if you’re running like a small Etsy shop or something with stuff you make and you need like 250 metal clasps for $20. Or 3000 electromechanical relays to build a relay CPU. They have some of the most random shit in bulk.
That will match my authentic late 1800s green wallpaper perfectly.
Maxis did something like that once in the 90s with Streets of Simcity, where you can load up a city you created and race around in it.
You know what I do after installing my OS? I just use it as is. The defaults are already set to my liking. I haven’t been able to do that with Windows since 2001.
Like the famous quicksort algorithm. Invented in 1959, still used today.

Docker has fully replaced what I used VMware ESXi for. They thought they had more sway than they did.
Mobile games are the equivalent of those “100 great games pack”-type CDROMS you’d find in the electronics section of stores in the late 90s/early 2000s. Not many invest serious money and time into gaming on a tablet or phone like they do on a console or PC, because games on phones and tablets are more like an afterthought. Something to do in between group chats and work emails.

Grandma’s been waiting for you.
Broadband had pretty much had taken over most places by the mid-2000s. That was 20 years ago. There are people who can drink now who were born after 9/11.
What I’m trying to say is, yes, we’re old. Dialup to younger folks is like what rotary phones were to us.
Software patents are fucked, ain’t they? You can implement a thing using completely different code, algorithms, hell even programming languages/CPU architectures, and you’d still be infringing. There was some stupid fight over a simple slider UI element to unlock a phone a few years back.
That’s great. That’s a personal antecdote though. I was online, unsupervised at 14 years old back in the late 90s, and being into anime and furry shit, I definitely had more than a couple people online trying to roleplay sexual shit with me…a fourteen year old kid. Even though my account profiles stated so. Unfettered, unsupervised access is also not the solution. I’m basing my opinion on this on my own experience as well. There are a shitload of predators out there.
I am not saying a blanket, hamfisted ban is the solution either. This is more complex than being a black and white problem. Where the fuck is everybody’s parents? They should be the ones actively guiding their kid through online spaces, not the government. It was literally a slogan in the 90s to “ask your parents before accessing such and such website” on every ad having to do with the Internet. WTF happened.
I don’t care about the laws, I don’t think parents should be allowing access to social media to their five year olds. Preteens maybe, with heavy supervision, yeah that’s reasonable, but not toddlers for fuck’s sake.
The law can go fuck itself, sure, but parents need to step the fuck up in this day and age. There is no reason for a 1st grader to be posting to X/FB/whatever. They should be playing Legos, riding bikes, and digging holes in the playground dirt.
You wanna get a kiddy diddler messing with your kid? Because that’s how you get a kiddy diddler messing with your kid.
The same parent that handed the kid a device to be on social media can also take the kid out somewhere to socialize with other kids.
As in, forever for good, or the “Microsoft” “for good” user settings paradigm?
Funny, the first thing I do when I recognize that something is AI-generated media, I make an effort never to visit that site/channel/feed/whatever ever again.
Okay. What are we supposed to do, not use chips? They’re kind of a main character of the 21st century.
This would be a great application of those nuke plants fuckin’ Google and Amazon want to build.
KILLING SPREE!
RAMPAGE!
DOUBLE KILL!
M-M-M-MONSTER KILL!
Edit: oh yeah and Duke at an arcade cabinet of his own game: “Don’t have time to play with myself.”
