I don’t mind the pop up as much as I mind it being a pop up that tells you to go to another menu to change the setting. Why not just put the setting in the pop up?

This one will still be playable offline after the fact, so its offer is way better than the games that are the focus of the Stop Killing Games movement. The games they’re targeting are completely unplayable after being killed.

I think about how many times things like this happen to individuals that don’t have the weight to warrant an article where their entire collection of online data just gets wiped out and Google responds with: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don’t trust your data to the cloud, folks.

Exactly. Some of my favorite movies are not at all masterpieces but you can tell the whole cast and crew are enjoying their time on set. I’m hoping this is that.

This could actually work if they go the way of the Need for Speed movie and try not to directly tie it to any one game’s storyline. Absolute banger of a game universe with plenty of potential for fun.

Nope. They were just trolling and fucking around. It was obvious sarcasm:

If this is true, please let there be a story sequel, too. I want more BT, dammit!

For DVDs, I’ve never had an issue. They just amplified the BS on BluRays tenfold.

I went the route of a physical collection, but man do they make it difficult unless you get a commercial player that is likely to have ads and doesn’t integrate well into a home theater setup.

I’ve taken to doing everything I can to play things through my computer, but they do everything in their power to make them unplayable. This includes things like adding hundreds of bogus playlists so you don’t know which one to play, adding extra layers of encryption that cause image corruption a few chapters into the movies, and more.

If they just allowed you to easily watch and rip the movies that I pay actual money for, I think a lot more people would be open to a physical collections of their favorites. As it stands, I can’t really recommend it.

Her name is Yayoi Kusama. Really fascinating artist: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yayoi_Kusama

I saw her Fireflies exhibit at the Phoenix Art Museum: https://phxart.org/exhibition/fireflies/

As well as one of the ones at The Broad: https://www.thebroad.org/visit/mirror-rooms

 

So I’ve been consolidating all of my storage and removing all the duplicates and junk files.

In actual physical storage, this was spread across 12TB worth of hard drives, all partially full.

After everything was said and done, I’m using 1.3TB of space if you don’t include games. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is stuff dating back to 2015. Sometimes it’s actually worth it to just clean up your junk files.
