  • I mean, you can’t neglect the prior 2 PlayStation generations. Gran Turismo started on ps1 with the first two, and the next two on PS2. Besides that, great entries like the first three Spyro games, Jak and Dexter, Ratchet and Clank… And let’s not forget just home much freaking staying power the PS2 had! Was still getting new games alongside Wii, Xbox 360, even the PS3










  • I’ve been subscribed to the same family plan, since about 2014ish. I like it, but really don’t appreciate that they raised the price for basically fuck all. Only reason I haven’t canceled it is that creators I watch on YouTube get far more from me as a Premium user than ad-based viewership





  • I just had one of these yesterday. I support lottery machines over the phone, so retail employees call me if there’s an issue with them

    Well, countertop terminal went offline. Employee swears up and down that he’s rebooted “5 times already”. I ask him to power cycle the modem while we’re on the phone, and he immediately replies OK. I then hear the distinct beeps of the terminal rebooting.

    So I ask, “just to be sure, you unplugged and replugged the power to the small box with two antennas that says BRAND, right?” Immediate response that cut into my question: “yeah yeah yeah!” more terminal beeps

    sigh




  • Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.
