Of course.
Aargh.


Of course.


I installed that thing on my dad’s laptop. 8 months later he calls me up and says that theres some weird window asking him to accept something. I thought it was something worse, so put on my shoes and walked over to his place, opened the laptop and… it was a cookie prompt lol.
In his defense, it was in English and he doesnt really understand English very well. But goes to show how great consent-o-matic works, heh.


Consent-O-Matic addon for Firefox makes it very easy. Its not perfect, but it works so well that every time it doesnt work, I sort of stare at the screen, waiting for it to do its thing, for a good 10-15 seconds, before snapping out of it and realising I need to do something.


Yeah pretty much lol.
LeGiTiMaTe UsE… fuck off.


Cookie banner is the reason why I, a huge Formula 1 fan, avoid the Formula1.com website like the plague. I couldn’t believe how many companies they were shoveling my shit to.
God I love the GDPR lol


Of course. Its a combination of his weird vanity projects and a distraction from the bigger issues you need to fix.


Thats exactly what I’m talking about, I want him to limit the damage to planet America. :P
I’m willing to let him rename The Moon to The America, if he, his crew and voters all move there.


If that keeps him happy, I say let him keep changing names on the US maps. Maybe that’ll distract him from making actual damage to the rest of the world.


I wonder, what would be examples of games with badly done art that is overlooked because the game itself is good.
And I think stuff like Minecraft doesn’t count, because with that style, the uglyness is a choice, not a result of not being able to make things look a certain way.


So you just like to waste your time, then? Mmkay. Have fun with that.


You expect to have a good quality discourse after starting with a silly movie reference? And then ranting about circlejerks?
We have a saying, translates to something like “the forest replies in the similar manner as you yell into it.” Perhaps try to say something of substance and make sense, that might help.


Might help if you made some kind of sense.
But if you are happy, please, do continue.


Which makes the idea extra stupid.


What the hell are you on about?


Especially when large chunk of the country is under occupation and millions are refugees in dozens of countries all over the place.
Suggesting to have a election now is just absolutely stupid, in pretty much every possible way.


I would.
One reason why I dont really watch sci-fi anymore is because its all just miserable, world ending, world dying, world dead, explosions, aliens, aliens exploding. Boring.
That Hail Mary movie was okay-ish. At least it had people, and that thing, doing helpful and constructive stuff.


Gamers Nexus started to print their videos on DVDs and Blurays recently


I’m glad you got it sorted out!


Its funny how “little” things like a shopping mall can be so different. In America, they are usually places you drive your vehicle to, spend the day (or something close to that nature, I’ve been lead to understand). Over here, theres one huge shopping mall (I think its like 1 kilometer long and 400m wide or something silly like that), it has a giant car park, its right next to the motorway, its in the middle of nothing, theres no housing close by, the only thing is a Lidl on the other side of the street and some car shops. But other than that, its “in the middle of nowhere”. Its about 10-15 minute drive from the nearest city. Its very easy to get to with a car. The mall has been struggling since day one. Sure, during Christmas shopping its full and whatnot, but outside any sales campaigns or events, its pretty quiet. I know, because I used to stop there for a coffee and bun, when I was driving trucks, and I liked places that were quiet. I even joked about it with the coffee shop owner, she said “well, for the sake of my wallet, I do hope you stop coming here” and I wished the same for her. Sadly I stopped going there for unrelated reasons and the café had to close because of lack of customers.
Anyway… The city that is close to the out-of-the-way shopping mall, has like 4 shopping malls in the center, all thriving. The newest one was built a few years ago and is a great success. All because the center of the city is extremely accessible with public transport and its walkable. You can walk from one mall to the other in like 4-10 minutes. You have all the shops you need within a 20 minute walking radius. And you dont need to drive your car anywhere, you can enjoy the benefits of the city, you can go have a picnic… Malls that you have to drive to are just silly in my opinion lol.
The funny thing is that a huge problem with online shopping people swore Amazon had gotten past, the inability to gauge the quality of the item before buying has come back in full force, people are just so used to garbage materials when buying in Amazon they don’t realize it now
This is the main reason I just cant deal with online shopping. I don’t care if the shop has a excellent return policy or whatever. If I have to walk to the post office to mail the package back, I might as well walk to the shop that sells the thing in the first place, choose one that is not damaged or defective and live happily ever after.
old.reddit redirect addon just got a update that deals with that problem.
