Act II: Can’t go back in my ass.

Can’t go back in my ass !

If I open a store in my town and start selling fake crap I can’t go and say “sorry not my fault I’m just a reseller you need to deal with the guy who sold it to me” I will be brought to court and loose why is Amazon allowed to sell fakes and non UL complient equipment?

What’s fumny to me is I remember watching a computer show on TV in late 90s they where interviewing an Adobe representative about the new Photoshop 5.0…

The TV host asked what adobe though about pirated copies and the representative said on LIVE TV that Photoshop price was for professional who make a living out of Photoshop and that any hobbyist had nothing to fear about using a pirated copy as it only served to get more people knowledgable about Photoshop and if these started doing business in photography and neede Photoshop they would then pay for it so to not be unprofessional.

Paywalled !

He apparently was rejected from his shooting group due to inability to aim.

You have a proof ?

I guess lemmy.ml filters the word ass ! lol

That reads like a highschool drama, WTF is the whole world gone coocoo ?

He seems to believe that poor people don’t deserve live music events. Only good for the rich, us poor workers have to keep on working so our bosses can have entertainment.

Nice ! You made me think of spinning up a little server. It’s been a while since I’ve dabbled in managing a server and not aure I have the time for that. But you made the chances if me going for it much higher.

Would a raspberry pi 4 be enough for running it ?

I use to think that until I spent a bit of time with a gamer. 75Gig updates etc… the fuck is in those game ! The whole Netflix library?

So Games, 4K videos etc…

Oups my bad eyes didn’t see it’s a magic wand. I get the broom 🧹 and magic wand 🪄 but the witch doesn’t come up.

🪄 this one ?

Yeah after loosing everything multiple times I developed an anti-attachment kind of feeling to things and people.

It’s a boring just surviving type of life now. I do what I need to to survive but have no intentions of ownership on anything and don’t feel like investing so much time in relationships.

But almost two years ago I bought my first car (I was 44) and I don’t want to loose it as I love driving around aimlessly, it keeps my mind busy has a great sound for music and I control the climate. (It’s always too cold or hot at work and too cold at home). If it was not for the cost I would spend most of my time driving but I have to preserve the vehicle as long as possible and don’t have much money for maintenance amd gas.

It’s weird how I could loose almost anything and would not be phased by it. But please let me keep my car, it’s the only reason I wake up to go to work and have some hope for the future. But my insurance got raised by 25% last year apparently because other people are bad drivers (I was told too many claims cost insurers too much but I never made a claim, so cause of too many bad drivers I have to pay for them, fuck them charge them or don’t let them drive why me !) , gas and parts and everything necessary has gone up and if I don’t get a substantial raise I won’t be able to keep up.

That’s refreshing from the normal News cycle.

Thanks for sharing. BBS’s and epic pinball are the reasons for my interest in computer as a kid. I would watch my friend go on BBS’s and play text based game and download ASCII art all day to the point I learned a lot the got my first real computer (386 sx), I had a coco3 as a kid but that was just BASICS with no floppy or tape to load or save programs.

The 386 was such a new world of possibilities especially with software downloaded from BBS’s, took ages but got lots of kool games and music files (.mod) etc… of course porn for a young teen was also nice lol.

For fucks sake why isn’t all assitive devices open source already. Making profit over disabled people misery is such a evil thing ! The capitalist are so fucking out of touch it’s crazy. Kids dying, disabled people pressed for every penny they have etc… how the fuck did we let things go this bad.

There is most likely many orphans in those lunch dept kids.

How the fuck can a kid have a dept ?

Wow ! That’s way out of control ! I can’t stop laughing at it but just imagine if it were a real condition. That guy is dead.
