I like using Firefox, but it’s a bit ironic to have google analytics tracking on the page you declare to protect the users privacy.

Anything cyberpunk usually fits that bill. Like Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix sounds and is ridiculous in many ways, but also has some insights on the rich taking over the media and prison system.

Fun fact: US has so weak food counterfeit laws and enforcement it has become the dumping ground for low quality oil or even mixed, making it an allergy hazard. If you haven’t gone out of your way to ensure you are getting the real deal, and paid a premium for it, you probably have never tasted genuine extra virgin olive oil. https://www.mashed.com/281801/the-real-reason-your-olive-oil-is-probably-fake/

Laws and terms are for the poor. I am sure big players like miHoYo, Niantic and Game Freak (Pokemon Go/Scarler/Violet) already have their own agreements and would not be affected by this.

Can’t wait an indie developer to go bankrupt because the super secret algorithm counted updates as new installations and the developer gets billed multiple times for their whole player base.

So… If the Unity’s secret spyware and algorithm suddenly decides to count an update as a new installation, you suddenly get slapped with a huge bill. Especially if you release multiple small patches and your whole player base is counted multiple times.

The Settlers games have not been Settlers games after the fourth one. Except of course the remake, but that also was a very long time ago.

Half as Interesting explained how it ended up like this. https://piped.video/watch?v=_Bq-6GeRhys

TL;DW; Amazon tried to offload vetting of the third party vendors to the patent and trademark office by requiring their brands are registered, but the vendors ended up generating nonsense brand names that automatically pass because there are too many applications and the names aren’t obviously going to conflict with existing ones.

Sanna Marin was not supposed to be the prime minister, but the old white guy fucked up so bad he had to resign after half a year and they had to switch in a hurry. The last government was a sum of multiple coincidences.

The Finns party coming in power has been on the cards for a decade. Actually they have been for a while before, but the moderates, including the party founder, chosen as the ministers split off when people running the current party line were elected to run the party. This time the National Coalition decided to take the risk again with the finns party, so they wouldn’t have to compromise their economic policies with the leftist parties and the risk seems to have backfired more quickly and worse they anticipated.

Yes, I do. A lot. Starting from elementary school when a class mate had a really weird pronunciation of Harry Potter.

Some of my embarrassing memories aren’t even something I did, but something I cringed hard at when I saw or heard it. Sometimes I am so afraid someone else is going to embarrass themself I have to block my ears so I don’t hear it.

Yeah, that’s the joke. The video ends abruptly because of a segfault.

Demotivational posters and rage comics were varied from get go and didn’t have a single viral hit sparking them.

Not really Richard Dawkins’ original definition of the term when he created it was on the lines of

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

One of the earliest internet memes was just to photoshop “All Your Base Is Belong To Us” on everything.

4chan used to be the internet meme factory where ideas were copied and mutated before they broke out to the wider internet to go viral.
