What is your take on youtubers looking at multiple cameras on their videos ?
  • They're trying too hard to seem like they're filmmakers when all that they're doing is just doing the bare minimum possible for YouTube content.

    It's about as bad as TikTok people thinking they're actors or singers with all of that lip-syncing they do.

  • What is an achievement in life that you're proud of?
  • I've not been to jail or prison in my life. Someone at one time or another has ran afoul with the law and broken justice system. I on the other hand, haven't. Granted, there's things I know that I did that would've seen me at least serve a handful of years but I hadn't been charged and the statue of limitations have long fallen off so I can't be touched anyways.

    All I've ever gotten in my life is just traffic violations that I had to pay for, that's it. But no prison time for me.

  • [Rant] Why the fuck do entertainment industries think we've got so much disposable income?

    Like really. Now I'm going to say that playing games, listening to music, watching shows/movies and even reading books is a bit of a luxury. It's a quality of life thing. But that doesn't always mean that each of those mediums have to be charged so damn much to even enjoy. Much less, the quality that gets shoveled out anyways with what we've seen.

    What pisses me off the most with the entertainment industry, is how they expect you to buy the same things whether it's a different format or on a platform multiple times. Furthermore, they willingly take away shows, movies .etc on a reguar cyclic basis on streaming platforms.

    When AnimeSuge went down, I felt a little lost and for once actually considered subscribing to Crunchyroll because AnimeSuge had the 1997 Berserk on there. Guess what? Crunchyroll and no where else had it. So much for the legal alternative, huh? By the way, yes I know of alternative sources so please don't recommend me those thanks.

    And this is the thing with this fucking industry as a whole. They honestly have this mentality where if something is not available then it's "too bad, fuck you" or if something is broken or not working then it's just "BUY ANOTHER AT FULL PRICE!" because they look down at people making backups of their copies.

    It's like, leave us the fuck alone. If something is not available anymore with absolutely no assured plans to bring it back for re-release and to be available on even streaming platform which leaves us to pirate - let it fucking be. What, are you going to make a shitstorm for people who buy movies and shows while thrifting? Surprised these fuckers haven't gotten to that process yet because of how god damn greedy they are.

    MPA says no more “Whac-a-Mole” with pirate sites, claims it took down “mothership”
  • This is like the time the MPAA declared "victory" when they had all of the original Pirate Bay founders arrested. But Pirate Bay still continued because it was no longer ran by them.

    But you know, this is now the opportunity for people to let the MPA think they won. Just let them think so. If they think so, they'll give a little less of a shit. If we keep screaming to the high heavens about piracy, this shit will just continue.

  • MPA says no more “Whac-a-Mole” with pirate sites, claims it took down “mothership”
  • Pfffft...if only.

    What do I see them doing a lot of the time? "WHUT VPN SHULD I USE?!" asked like 1,000 fucking times a day. "WHERE SHULD I GU TO GET X FILE FROM Y SOURCE SINCE MY FAVORITE PLACE GOT SHUT DOWN? :("

    Legions of new pirates are lazy, entitled and think they've got the privilege to be spouting how much they think they should get for putting in as little as much work to get what they want. Always e-begging.

  • Is Linux As Good As We Think It Is?
  • Linux to me is just an optional substitute of an OS, but it has yet to make it my primary day-to-day use. Linux isn't going to make the problems I get aggravated with like the verification-hell we deal with, go away. It's going to happen on both Windows or Linux regardless.

    I have more patience when I give any laptop I get Linux, than I ever will should I decide to make Linux a primary OS of choice on my primary desktop machine. Because Linux does give me the whole 'works out of the box' feel with laptops than Windows would when it comes to driver hunting and I'm talking with old laptops, not newer ones where all of that is currently provided.
