The reality is, it isn’t so much about legality, it’s about how one company has more money than you and therefore, can buy so much.

You mind as well re-write “how is it legal” to “IT’S NOT FAIR! WAH!”.

Yeah but, one day, someday. All and every VHS tape will be completely useless because of the degradation.

So, people will just end up sitting on piles of just junk.

Dude, if it is the price, then just say it. You instead, made yourself look and sound stupid.

My mind right now:

"Hey, you’re tired as shit. So, you’ve got these options;

Option A: You can be fearful for how you’ll next work night will go because your ungrateful coach got onto you about music but allows people on the phones while working. He seems to have it out for you and may fire you if he feels so"

Option B: You can feel sad about how much time has passed you by, so much so, you’ll never have a break in between restless thoughts thinking of your past, your regrets, your could’ve beens, would’ve beens and should haves.

You get no choice in this after all. Enjoy"

36, having consistent existential crisis issues. Living in the most boring ass capital of possibly the most boring-ass state I’ve ever lived in besides Kentucky. Like, I love the moderate pace, nothing too extreme and nothing too slow. But, it kinda drags for so long that everyday feels like forever, worse when I’m working.

I kinda am in the “who gives a fuck” part of my life. Where, I’ve let myself go because it’s been 4 years since I’ve been with someone and I’ve been processing the reality that I probably will not get anyone again because I’m too specific and everyone, I don’t know, feels fake and artificial when put side-by-side against what I’d like to see and have in a person.

So, I’m a tad overweight, not caring what I eat some of the time. I know what I have to do to get the weight down, it’s a matter of caring. Everyday is almost the same old shit for the past 4 years I’ve lived here. And I’ve got zero clue in where I want to take things.

Saw IV, to date, remains the only movie I’ve ever downloaded. I thought the series perfectly ended at III, but they had to keep continuing.

Simple. You feel out which team you associate with the most.

I lived in Vermont. It has no MLB, NHL, NBA or NFL teams (I really can’t see anyways how it’d have either). So, naturally, it’s New England and you have a plethora of teams to root for. I naturally gravitated to the Boston Red Sox. To me, they were the underdogs, lovable idiots who really try hard to make it and I’ll never forget the year of 2004.

You can fuck off with this question too, Stacy#2.

Fuck off.

Okay pedo.

Same reason executives and CEOs go for golf. They’re taking a break while fucking everyone over at their expense.

I’m already seeing posts and been seeing the posts.

But, stupid pot-stirring ones like questions being asked that’s guaranteed to spark a stupid debate. There’s a reason why some places put down politics as taboo - it’ll get people arguing. There’s a reason religion is a no-no - it gets people arguing.

Then you’ve got people asking stupid questions that are redundant. Like, yeah, age-gap ones, we’ve already settled that shit long ago, take it back to Reddit. Also, stop asking for support or whether you’re the asshole or not. Take that shit back to Reddit.

I think that’s too late now.

I’ve gotten banned and comments removed because I mentioned a site the moderators didn’t like. So, censorship is alive and well on Lemmy. Also, never forget the time the Lemmy mods/admins threw a bitch fit over celebrating what Luigi had done.

I’m sick of stupid age-gap questions.

Let’s make it concrete, anything over 18 is ENTIRELY UP TO THE INDIVIDUALS INVOLVED.

Anyone below 18 IS A FUCKING PEDOPHILE AND SHOULD STOP THEIR SHIT!

Whenever people say they’re attracted to someone of the opposite sex, despite claiming they’re primarily attracted to the same sex - it’s bisexual. I’m sorry but that’s just fact. Bisexual is an accurate description, when you’re attracted to the other sex while attracted to the same sex, that is by definition, bisexual and should not be treated as an insult.

Now what you can say is that you prefer other women, mostly, moreover than guys. But Lesbian? You’ve challenged that yourself.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles meets the Street Sharks meets X hero-based-anthropomorphic team similar to both of them.

Ghost Rider and Spawn, they both can be edgy together.

Transformers meets Reboot

They need a serious update.

If there’s one thing Trump is doing, is that he’s turning a lot of heads because he’s making a whole lot of firsts. He’s a demonstration, not since the Bushes/Reagan/Nixon days, as to what happens when an aging, pedophilia-crazed individual with dementia and a lack of empathy and respect for others is president.

When Trump wasn’t going to answer for the 350k deaths during the pandemic and how he dodged impeachment twice - I threw up my arms.

People can rally and call for jail-time all they want for the people in power to answer for. The reality is, as we’ve seen over and over, is that they will never see jail or any penalty. Dick Cheney got to die comfortably. Donald Rumsfeld got to die comfortably. George W Bush is going to die comfortably. Mitch McConnell is soon on his way to die comfortably.

Names of people I’ve mentioned, who’ve committed war crimes and acts that would blatantly spell Treasonous all over, who’ve got off cleanly. Trump, Vance, Pence and others will be no different.

God, fuck this country twenty times over.

You didn’t read the part where I said “you own a copy” hence the word “copy”. Do you even read?

I’ve seen you post many, many things. A lot of it is thought provoking and engaging. That’s the core importance of contributing to any community.

The problem is the community themselves. Now what has been carried over from Reddit, unfortunately, is this hive-minded process. People only love to read and engage with what aligns with their perspectives. These are the people who feel their opinions are factual and that they are never wrong. They only allow the right way of thinking to be filtered out.

This brings about a large issue across all walks of the internet. The karma system, only worsens that, because now people can feel validated in everything they say. “Ohhhh the more upvotes I got, the more I’m righteous and that my opinion doesn’t smell like shit!” And they let that get way too into their heads to act the way they do.

I’ve found that a lot of people with tons of karma points, tend to be the most uptight, self-righteous bastards you can ever come across.

I don’t fucking care for anything about the karma system, people can take it and choke on it for all I care. What I would want for myself and anyone, is to be able to express, articulate and be able to say my opinions as I see fit. If the idea of someone else’s thoughts offend you, then you’re the problem, whether you like that or not.

What people need to get used to, is that you own copies of what you buy. You’re not entitled to own the source codes, unless the developer distributes that freely on their own like ID Software did for Doom (technically the Linux version).

So, what GOG is probably saying is, you’re entitled to the ownership of the copy by buying the copy. It is not restrained by DRM as it would if a game was on Steam or Epic Library (but there can be workarounds, you look that up yourself). You’re allowed to have the copy work offline, download its separate installer to archive for your personal use.

Now, what you aren’t allowed still, is to distribute the copy to other people.
