  Thanks for correcting the Server version for me…that piece of shit company was still using Microsoft 2003…

  They’ll probably do the same thing with Windows 10 they did with XP…The server software that runs along with Windows (I think with XP it was Server 2003) will continue to get security updates for a couple of years. With XP it was a quick registry alteration that continued security updates until 2016 or 17.

  Legit my back cover fell off my s20 I just bought…it’s not broken so I’m going to re stick it, but first I’m upgrading the battery and I’m not asking Samsung for shit nor am I telling them…

  So essentially someone or group at a 3 letter agency screwed the pooch?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Critics question tech-heavy lineup of new Homeland Security AI safety board⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If homeland security touches anything that thing is ruined and abused and scandal…DHS is a useless boondoggle

  Does this work for drug dealers or just rich businesses executives‽

  We’ve done this before and they just rolled it up onto executive bonuses.

  Obviously he was saving the really damning info for after they suicided him.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Security footage of Boeing repair before door-plug blowout was overwritten⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why they had to kill the whistle blower, he knew where the video was

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DHS wants $101 million to upgrade its border surveillance towers⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Have them take it out of DHS’s boondoggle ass budget. They absolutely useless and everything they touch turns to scandal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Office Space’ at 25: The Unlikely Cult Hit That Had Its Cast “Biting the Inside” of Their Cheeks From Laughter⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really enjoyed season one but I felt like season 2 was fairly weak. I’ll give it another chance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Official Trailer for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s what the last one focused on, but was still a pretty enjoyable movie, but note it did feel slightly Disney like too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Passing on the right on a highway⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a bitch of a cop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yeah, but...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But game boy has its own games. TurboGrafx-16 and TurboExpress (colored handheld) used the exact same games. Battery life did suck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yeah, but...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember my mind was blown when my cousin born in 75 knew all the secrets on the first level of Super Mario Bros

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yeah, but...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What is funny is that we remember Nintendo still. NEC’s TurboGrafx -16 failed because you couldn’t rent games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yeah, but...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But they sure did by selling extra copies, plus if the game was good we’d buy it. I’m convinced the TG-16 never took off because they didn’t let places rent games.

  Plus game rentals made owning a console more attractive and that means perhaps more potential sales for all games you’ve produced.

  Short view you’re right, long view I think rentals helped the industry much more than hurt it back then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yeah, but...⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember buying a book with the secrets of Super Mario Bros (and other NES) games typed backwards so you had to use a mirror to know how to warp from 1-2 to 4-2 to get to 8-1.

  I doubt I’d have finished…but I’ve got a TG-16 I can’t beat anything on.
