Ngl, that second meme is so bad, it hurts me physically. “iPad” for workstation OS? If they meant iPadOS, it would’ve been “iOS” at the time anyone would consider Vista.
Linux is “unlimited”? As in “open source”?

And honestly, in early 2010s, when Vista was still relevant, Linux wasn’t really a choice yet (for the vast majority). I know, cause I tried.

That sucks. As one of the workarounds I have vertical taskbar and tabs. Our screens have more horizontal space than we usually need.

Triangular prism*.

But what is even the point of arguing with them? Assuming they are a stranger, of course, and not a person you have a personal relationship with, too. You just make a mental note that the person is ok with something you consider immoral and move on.

She was clearly complaining about her being at “HER” boyfriend’s place. Asking what she was doing there, but really implying why she was there, cause the man is already taken.

I never understood complaining to the person your partner is cheating with. You don’t have any agreements with that person, go “complain” to your partner.

I’m aware of some DOS games that did it. For example 1989 Prince of Persia had you enter the exact character (page, line, word) from the manual.

On PS1 you’d probably never complete Metal Gear Solid (1998), cause you need to call somebody on the codec, but the frequency was on the box cover.

They are right, it was used for that. Sometimes some key information for progress would be in the manual or on the box. Luckily it wasn’t super popular on consoles, due to the notion that it wasn’t as easy to pirate on consoles as it was on home computers, where you could just copy the floppy/CD.

I’m not sure I understand. What point?

Yeah, that was the case early on. But because of that problem we were very incentivized to learn English. Which we did pretty fast.

It’s the tank from Indiana Jones, right?

Psh. As a kid in a post-soviet country I hadn’t seen a game manual up until PS3 days. Every single cartridge and disc sold there was just that. Best case scenario in a flimsy plastic case that would disintegrate in a couple of years. Had to rawdog the shit out of those games. Pure trial and error and perseverance.
Stuck? Try every possible button combination in every location that makes any sense.

For example, couldn’t finish Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster’s Hidden Treasure on Mega Drive (Genesis) because I didn’t know you can jump off walls. Finished it earlier this year though 🙃

Not to brag, but my brother and I passed the garage test mission in Driver (PS1) as kids. Now that I think about it, I should put it on my resume.

So if men playing as female avatars in games don’t count (that openly admit to it), then I would say it’s probably a very small group of men who actually do that.

That’s kind of a weird assumption. What qualifies as pretending? I don’t think I have ever done that.

His wife is so fat gigantic, she takes up the entirety of his cone of vision regardless.

You were at 100 upvotes in my Voyager tracker. Now have to start all over… :(

The smarter option would have been to make it a cylinder, still rollable, with less carving.

In Poland I’ve only seen the in-store scanners in Kaufland so far, but I love it.

Rocket League. Dude was so prominent in the RL community there are official in-game customization parts with his comics.
