Same here. My folks caved and bought a second phone line for computing, however it didn’t help. My friend & I would use the first phone line for voice communication :)
The phone pressed to my ear with my shoulder, yelling to my buddy while fighting off cacademons, such good times.
I enjoy the flow of the new Doom Eternal, once you get the hang of it you can keep an infinite supply of health and ammo that only runs out when everything’s dead - and you end up taking on much more than you thought possible.
However the jaw-dropping, frightening game that Doom was in 1993 will never be recaptured. Yes, scary games existed. Yes, 3D FPS existed. But nothing came close to Doom, it was a graphical marvel. I’d show it to friends, grandparents, anyone who’d look and they’d all either be amazed or reach for the bible. Their idea of video games was mario, Doom broke brains.
Doom 2 is what I played most. At the time, playing over a local BBS with my 28k modem (the fastest available!), I could see that network play was the future of gaming.
Specifically, Mozilla plans to scale back its investment in a number of products, including its VPN, Relay and, somewhat remarkably, its Online Footprint Scrubber, which launched only a week ago.
I just purchased an annual plan for Monitor, partially to help Mozilla. I guess this is my thanks
It’s nice to read a robot’s perspective on this issue.

oh no my DRM machine is adding more DRM

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery.

Perhaps capital wasn’t scared of tesla-buyers.
Thiel backstabbed Musk before X became a thing, because he’s a fucking weasel and Musk is a moron government contractor. It’s also really funny he took the company while Musk was on honeymoon.
What about 2013 seemed more favorable to the fediverse than now? Twitter, reddit and Facebook were pretty useful at that time - I don’t think I’d have left.
Unfortunately, at the time of the raid, our admin was troubleshooting an issue and working with a backup copy of the Kolektiva.social database. This backup, dated from the first week of May 2023, was in an unencrypted state when the raid occurred and it was seized, along with everything else.
Oh the FBI just happened to visit when they unencrypted the database? How convenient!
FBI claiming it’s for non-Mastodon related reasons, but that could be a cover. https://kolektiva.social is still up
Regardless, I don’t think they even have to ask to get this sort of data from any of the big platforms.
There’s an entire industry that harvests content from archive.org for modern ad spam
