This is literally the plot of every Disney movie lately. Just as entertaining too.

Dealing with computer breaking DRM, and drivers that fix one game and fuckup another is a big reason that I've been gaming on consoles more and more.

I support the thin bean line.

The last time I upgraded my PC was to play the Tomb Raider reboot and Bioshock Infinite.

Machine still runs everything great... Except games.

Instead of upgrading, I switched over to PS4 for gaming, followed by the PS5.

Honestly I just got tired of every time I updated my video card driver to make one game work, it broke another game.

YMMV, but I've been a happier gamer since I went back to consoles.

20 years ago I bought my first house on half my current salary...

I'm currently looking to get into the market again, and I don't know that I could even buy that same house back.

Seeing the Sega-CD with a retail price of $49.99 hurt my soul.

I bought mine on release day and specifically remember selling my entire pewter figure collection and just barely having the $311.99 (after taxes) for my Sega-CD at "Best"... Not "Best Buy"... Just "Best".

Still don't regret it.

I feel ya.

This weekend I'm going to quit all my mod duties, and delete my 10+ year account with 350k karma.

Almost brings me to tears when I think anout all the time and energy I put into keeping shit cleaned up over there.

/Kbin is my new home, and I hope to make just as many friends here as I did there.

You either like Dune, or you don't.

I wouldn't disparage anyone that didn't.

But damn... The books are amazing. Once you read them, seeing the different takes on the story from the 80's movie, to the miniseries, to the latest interpretation.

It's amazing.

It's the first non-marvel move other than Oppenheimer that I'm truly geeked for.

Like, I'm a huge Ant-Man fan, (we do exist) but even for Quantumania, I was.... Rightfully cautious..

But I don't feel that way about Dune and... Christopher Nolan movies.

It's a nice change of pace to not have the trepidation.

It meat that has gone through a hull implosion.

It could be human, it could be half a can of Spam... Would be hard to tell the difference without a DNA test.

He talked about it publicly on the Howard Stern show...

We all knew he would say worse behind closed doors.
