  • Cubicles were often seen as the most hellish form of office design... It is crazy to think how things are becoming so that people are fucking looking back at them with nostalgia...

  • I never owned a car but if and when I do my FIRST choice is 'was this car made with telemetry? If yes, are there clear instructions on how to airgap it'

    Also I would want to check the laws regarding the paint on the cars so if it is possible to give it a dazzle or AI confusing pattern. I cannot shield it from ALPRs, but I want as little visiblility against other cameras as possible... Of course doing that pattern makes the car stick out.

  • That movie didn't even feel like SciFi in 2020. It felt like current day.

  • Also if you want to be an asshole, the title is Nineteen Eighty-Four.

  • The 1970s and 80s sadly was the start of the apocalyptic shithole future. Look up cyberpunk. The 90s economic computer boom really lead to a lot of optimism, but that is long gone now.

  • Because Google cares about us

    Jump

  • I paid off my old phone early and got a grapheneOS phone ASAP just because of these motherfuckers.

    Hell, I was firmly in the Android camp specifically because of the open source nature of their software. I never made the apps I wanted to make, but I like having the option to do so.

    So you can go fuck yourself, google. Yes my phone is a Googlepixel 10 because they work best with grapheneOS. In a few years if I can I will get a Linux phone.

  • Time travel

    Jump

  • This was literally a plot point and major puzzle for one of the characters in Day of The Tentacle, one of the most iconic adventure games of the 90s.

    Spoilers but not spoilers. One character, Hoagie, gets taken back in time with his chrono-John (a time machine built using a port-a-potty...) To the revolutionary era USA. Hijinks ensue with the goal of charging up a battery to provide the power needed to return.

  • Well is my face red. I found a compatiablity thingie on steam for Robocop: Rogue City and... it works now! Damn. I might see if I can finally get Star Wars Squadrons to work...

  • A few years ago I bought Star Wars squadrons in steam. It hasn't worked in years (I never made it through the single player story.) I never understood why. It was not my antivirus, it was not my VPN. It wasn't even my OS. I used Windows 11 briefly (I originally had it on windows 10) and it still didn't work. I am on Linux mint and it doesn't boot up.

    Now recently I bought RoboCop Rogue city on steam. I originally had it pirated, but on Linux mint it had a hard time booting up. I thought buying it would fix that.

    Nope. It did not. Now I spent 40$ on a digital paperweight.

    If we pay for something. We have a reasonable expectation for it to work.
