“Your papers! You’re Patterson!”

Never forget, “history is written by the victors”.

Now you got me curious. What’s the argument against Mozilla?

How’s that better? Honestly curious.

I think there are two sides to this. Yes, online aggression has probably peaked in recent years with the rise of worldwide pro far-right misinformation campaigns, no argument there. They were specifically targeted at the people more vulnerable to buy into hate speech propaganda.

On the other hand, I have personally noticed more constructive discussions, even after I deleted most of my anti-social media accounts and substantialy decreased my usage of Internet forums in general. It seems there’s some positive trend in the middle of all that.

Windows XP’s UI philosophy was great: one could always find what they needed within a two-clicks distance. Everything just went downhill after that. If they ever fix Windows, it will probably look a lot like XP again.

You do realize that makes it even more disappointing, right? I mean, trying to understand what Brexit was after voting for it? My goodness.

Good for you.

Rainbow is definitely in a league of their own. Coming just a half generation after the holy trinity of rock (Purple, Sabbath and Zeppelin) set the cornerstones of heavy rock, I’ve always pictured them as a natural evolution, a supergroup. Their debut album is a real gem. And “Rising” truly raised the bar to strat-ospheric levels. “Long Live” is an excellent, mature, even if a farewell album and completes the trilogy just nicely. R.I.P. Dio and Cozy. Long live Blackmore.

That’s fine, since the chances of a doctor prescribing antibiotics in Europe are the same as winning the lottery.

Gen X here. Arriving late to the thread but I think I have something to say about this. I’ll try to keep the list short, as it could go really long if I added everything that deserves to be mentioned. Games that were genre-defining for me:

• Gradius/Nemesis (this saga defines what a good shoot 'em up should look like, noteworthy title being Nemesis 2 for the MSX)
• Double Dragon (original arcade version, as it was never correctly ported to any other platform due to home consoles being too weak at the time, this is the beat 'em up game you must play)
• Shadow Dancer (for the Genesis/Mega Drive, the best title in the Shinobi series, has great graphics, music and gameplay)
• Bionic Commando (for the GameBoy, there’s just something special about this game that was never truly replicated)
• Super Mario World (the Super NES title is 16-bit platformer perfection, the interaction between sprites is just what you expect it to be)
• Ninja Warriors Again (for the SNES, is just a fun, very well-made beat 'em up)
• Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold (a.k.a. Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha, this is 2D fighting perfection, simply put)
• Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (the series’ debut on the Game Boy Advance was also one of the best games ever made for the console, arguably the very best 2D title in the series)
• Doom (the game that made Boomers get interested in video games for better or worse, requires no further introduction)
• Ōkami (this one has been re-released for every platform since its original PS2 version and if you play it you’ll understand why)
• Castlevania: Curse of Darkness (hands down the best 3D Castlevania title ever created, criminally not ported to newer consoles)
• Resident Evil Zero (probably the best fixed-camera title in the series, also sets a good basis for playing the next ones afterwards)
• Resident Evil 4 (the original, not the remake, arguably one of the best video games ever made, also first “action” title in the series)

Anything that comes after that is probably not “old” enough for me.

Ah ok, so Brexit was caused by Russians now. I thought it was caused by the people who voted to leave the EU.

That’s a fallacy. Teenagers are the victims here. So I’m obviously blaming greedy corporations, lack of good parenting and proper regulation from authorities.

Kindness wins.

Where else?

Teenagers should not be on social media. I rest my case.

Two people were arrested in raids carried out across several states.

I bet those states lie somewhere in the south.

Bottom line: Lunatics gonna be lunatics, with AI or not.

I still use Ecosia.org for most of my research on the Internet. It doesn’t need as much resources to fetch information as an AI bot would, plus it helps plant trees around the globe. Seems like a great deal to me.

So it’s official now, they are at the same time evil and stupid. These guys aren’t even pretending to be good anymore.
