Soeedrunners tend to be from the games that I follow!

I set up an auto replace on my phone so when I type ?! It’ll switch it to ‽ for me.

Oldie but a goldie; Some Bullshit Happening Somewhere

It’s just so amazingly on point

To put into context; Microsoft bought Activision/Blizzard for 69 Billion dollars. A huge portion of that was actually King.

Around 2014, over 93 million people were playing Candy Crush Saga, while revenue over a three-month period as reported by King was over $493 million. Five years after its release on mobile, the Candy Crush Saga series has received over 2.7 billion downloads, and the game has been one of the highest-grossing and most-played mobile apps in that time frame. As of September 2023, it had reached over $20 billion in revenue.

Safe to say mobile market makes a lot more money we’d be comfortable with.

I shared my arcade membership with my mom a while ago (I had gotten it included) and it put her purchases on my card. This bio-chemist (very smart lady in some specific subjects) spent over $25 on ‘micro’ transactions in a week or so. They prey on the group that just want to get things done.

I’ll have to look into to that! Thanks for the tip :)

I’ve been using AltStore for Delta for a while, but often forget to refresh every week. Looking forward to this rollout!

Regarding should have and should ‘of’; I’ve always understood it to be should’ve, which when spoken tends to keep a short vowel sound in the middle of the contraction that makes it phonetically sound like ‘of’. Bit of a bone-apple-tea.

That and I don’t watch soap operas other than S.O.A.P. It’s a very different genre, but it has been called an opera in space before, so you’ve got that haha

Edit; I also has said ‘one of the first’ so non definitive. I just meant in terms of ‘prime-time television’. It seems like people didn’t like that.

I am curious where the down votes came from. I hope no one thought I was disparaging Star Trek. I love em both, they’re just different.

Babylon 5! I was born in 94, when it premiered and have always watched it (along with Star Trek). It was one of the first shows that really pushed the continuous plot over serialized and it makes rewatches a game of finding the hints.

I’ve said before that Babylon 5 is the more realistic depiction of if we had made contact with aliens over star trek (at least the early ones), but the heros are still that.

To add to this, you don’t need a Costco membership to purchase pharmacy or alcohol goods (if they carry them)

Maybe they find WASD easier than a wheel? ¯\(ツ)/¯

The Red Cross: ‘our blood’

(a la bugs bunny meme)

I’m a reverse vampire (when I donate blood), and can confirm we’re up to no good

Just last month I heard of United’s own supersonic plan ‘Boom’. Concerning name aside I am interested to read more about the tech behind it.

Regular emoji is just easier. But I do have a keyboard shortcut for the ¯\(ツ)/¯ which is my main textface, if annoying to edit his arm back in
