Congrats on dating Elizabeth Olsen!


Hey, I like the sound of that.



I’m going to steal this.


I do think I’m going to start a retro game ROM collection in general. I have a sizable physical collection already, but there are just so many that aren’t easily available anymore.


The first that came to mind are episodes that have been removed from circulation, like the Pokemon episode with Porygon, or the It’s Always Sunny Lethal Weapon episodes, or that first DnD episode from Community.
From a quick search, there are a bunch that are stuck in weird legal limbo: The Drew Carey Show, Dogma, Tales from the Crypt.
Someone also mentioned Song of the South being pulled by Disney. Ooh, or the original Star Wars films from before they were edited. There are also probably a ton of not well known older films that would benefit from being preserved.


Welcome!


I’ve been using Handbrake to rip DVDs but haven’t started using MakeMKV yet. I do have a number of blu-rays that Handbrake can’t seem to process on its own.
Don’t worry, he did the close bit with scissors.


I find it funny, because if you’re like me and spent the 2010s commenting a lot on reddit, you’re literally part of the training data. All the LLM giveaways — like overuse of em dashes, for example — are things that you probably do too.
I’m stubborn and don’t want to change the way that I type.






I know you’re 100% right, but does Lemmy/Piefed count?


I give it 5 years before we start seeing kids assuming classic meme videos like that are AI too.


I remember a LOT of people giving up gaming entirely during the transition to 3D because of this. That was when a lot of the people who experienced the arcade era stopped keeping up.


It’s hard for me to imagine anyone else in any of the roles. They are all such perfect fits.


I don’t remember where I picked it up, but it wouldn’t have been here. I guess this joke already made the rounds in a few forms.


Argh, sorry!


My gaming/hobby time is typically after getting the kids down too. As long as I don’t sit down and get distracted, I can manage to get some good time in, but my brain is tired by then.
I don’t know the context of the pic, but that’s Elizabeth Olsen.
