    They are cool though. All good things I suppose! 90s Was a cool era for tech though, very exciting; bespoke gadgets for specified purposes were more interesting than a ubiquitous glass rectangle. These are still cool though, just less interesting.

    THIS! This so much! I used to be really involved in consumer tech for this reason. I loved it! Then last decade or so everything became all in one and they all look the same. Nothing new just incremental updates.

    Life?!...What console is that on?

    Replaced the arm and motor belts on the old EIKI 16mm.





    My print of that WWII movie is exhibiting color fade. Common issue with early Eastman film stock.

    I have an irrational hatred for Seth Greens voice.

    Quick question for anyone who might know: can I buy a Canadian DC game and play it on my regular American Dreamcast?

    Canada is NTSC so it shouldn't be a problem.

    Have you otherwise not burned a disc with Code Breaker?

    I used it for all of my JP and PAL imports. Works perfect.

    I have an import CD-R I burned for Shenmue II EU that worked great.

    Thanks!

    But you're not allowed to say why Disney sucks, or you get banned from everywhere.
    - Where it's always 1995 (or so).

    Good to see that Gillette have lost more than $8billion after that fucking horrific man-hating shit show of a commercial that aired back in January. The backlash from men is well and truly on. I will never buy their products again. There is an important lesson for all companies to learn from this, Disney very much included, and that is get woke go broke!

    I switched to a Gillette Fusion about a year ago after shaving with a double edge safety razor for approximately 50 years.
    I quit using a safety razor since I could no longer get consistently useable razor blades. Gillette sent me a free razor with a blade and I found that I liked it almost as well as a safety razor and in some ways liked it better. The blades were pricey though - and buying an 8 pack of them only saved a bit of money. I had been thinking of switching to Harry's to save some money - that marvelous ad campaign pushed me to trying Harrys. I just got a razor and one blade from them and as soon as the last Gillette blade (which is in the razor now) is done I will try the Harrys.

    I don't have a big dog in either the whole transgender thing or the metoo stuff. But I really don't want to be lectured by a company that I spend money with for a product - they seem to assume that I am automatically violating some sjw crap and need to guide me. Sorry - I just want to buy a product that suits my needs - it is not the duty of any commercial endeavor to do anything else.

    It was actually satisfying to be able to express my views by ceasing to buy a product (not really a boycott since I don't think they could ever attract me again). Usually these companies are ones that I never use to begin with - hard to quit buying Starbucks (I don't even drink coffee) when I don't go there in the first place. Or drop a subscription to the Denver Post for their miserable news coverage when I don't have a subscription to begin with.

    Gillette, 2K, EA, Nintendo, Bethesda, Cheaper Than Dirt, anything attached to Freedom Group, and a few other companies are on my lifetime blacklist. Same goes for almost every fast food joint. The only one on my permanent whitelist is Chick-fil-A. Start preaching about anti-family BS, and YA' DONE, SON.
    - Where it's always 1995 (or so).
