Even a broken clock is right twice a day...

That's more McNally's style tbh

Alright, this is a good way to show why AI is so dangerous! I usually look at thumbnails before reading article titles, so when I read the title, my brain auto replaced butter with peanut butter.

Yippee! The death of cable is fast approaching, hopefully.

Not to mention that they also incentivise players to spend real-world money by having their website have a secret club for whales (I think you need to spend either $1K or $5K in order to have the button appear) to spend even more money then they did to even gain access originally.

Edit: clarity and conciseness: added "originally" to the end of the last sentence.

They don't really though. I haven't been on GoG in a minute, but when I was looking for an offline installer (I think for Cyberpunk?), it was very easy to find it

I don't like how I didn't catch this was satire until the third bullet point

It's actually a bit hit or miss, at least on Prime Video. Most episodes still have the Massive Attack Theme, but a few here and there (Mostly in S2 iirc) have the generic theme.

To be fair though, that's pretty much any pharmacy system. I just switched my main pharmacy over last year, and it's basically the same process.

I've noticed this on my TV's YouTube app as well. It went from 15 second I shippable ads, to 2 ads where I need to watch at least one and only then can I skip, to sometimes at least 30 seconds before I can skip. It's worse on the longer video essays that I like watching, where they say "Fewer ad breaks for this long video", but in reality they have the same amount of ads that you need to watch more of to skip. I absolutely fucking hate it :D
