You’re not paranoid or wrong to prep for anything that is unexpected. Life is anything but linear.
If you hear or see of any security breaches, just look over your accounts and do a widespread change of whatever preferences needed to make yourself secure. It’s no different than stockpiling what’s needed for events where you’re cut off from resources for extended periods of time.
That’s typical of Apple. Silencing their critics. Why not when they’re a trillion dollar company. Money has stuffed their ear holes from hearing anything critical from the bottom.
Hard to be butt-hurt about something I’ve no intention of buying or getting involved in.
I don’t believe in resolutions that are to be contained in one year. I think resolutions should be continuous.
Windows ME. It’s an over-hated OS and it only showcased how clustered of a development Microsoft was in to produce Windows ME/2000/XP in a short span of time. People only got like roughly 11 months of that OS before Windows XP just blew everything over.
That and people who’ve brown-nosed their way through to get roles that they didn’t deserve so they can shit up the movies they’re in.
Um, did you have a question? Because, I’m pretty sure this is a questions-based instance.
It’s about as bad as the time when Cloudflare went down and like, nearly 75% of everything reliant on it went down with it or was confiscated. Like, you couldn’t even log into your online banking because Cloudflare was wedged between you even accessing it.
I guess people forgot that so we’re going through the rounds again with this outage.
And suck their dicks.
Thrifting.
It disgusts me to go to those Goodwill buy-the-pound stores, with the bins, that people get very competitive as to what they get. Thrifting is supposed to be the last line of affordability for people who can’t afford the latest of anything. To get a vacuum cleaner for their home or apartment that they can’t spend even $20 on. To get a toaster oven that they don’t want to throw $50 down on.
But, they’re now having to compete with dozens of hyper-competitive people who’ve been groomed from years of Storage Wars, Pawn Stars, American Pickers, Hardcore Pawn, Auction Hunters .etc Where, they believe that almost anything that they can find, can be and will be flipped for profit. It’s like running into micro-capitalists, is exactly what it is but these people disguise themselves as “passionate collectors” or “aspiring bargainers”.
And thrift stores for a while now, have been catching on to this behavior. To where, they’ve remodeled their business to reflect it, so that’s why you see absurd pricing, color-sale discounts and the like. It’s just gotten ugly. So, thrifting is almost no longer for the struggling and that last line of affordability is but non-existent.
I can say the exact same thing for the used video games market, something I used to have been involved in for 9 years. 2007 through 2015 was to me, the optimal time to have gotten into the used games market. Where things felt sane. But thanks to WATA, thanks to YouTubers/Streamers alike, they’ve corroded the market to now there being many used video game nerdy stores that hyper-inflate the value of any old games.
Which is why it makes me scoff at those who shame people who pirate old games by telling them to “go buy them on ebay!”. Yeah, with those awful prices? Get real.
No. You’re thinking too narrowly.
I accuse TikTok of dumbing down generations of people.
Both the GameCube and X-Box original are 25 years old. When the 6th generation of gaming officially kicked off.
