Yeah, well, I will admit that “lesbians mud wrestling“ is a fucking ton of fun to watch

Lollapalooza or not

How is this news? Isn’t this a normal, scheduled event at lollapalooza? I haven’t been in a very long time, but… Isn’t this normal?

Iirc, there’s a whole schedule of mud wrestling events

But perhaps because of the ownership uncertainty, Oliver’s extension is only for one year, vs. its usual three-year pickups. Oliver has been vocal on “Last Week Tonight” about his concerns over Paramount Skydance’s proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery: “Yeah, not great news,” he said in a March episode. “In fact, if I may quote anyone who’s ever accidentally sat on their Roku remote, I’m in Paramount now … how the f-ck do I get out of here?’”

Word

Lmao fixed

I was referring to chromium forking from WebKit

Adblock plus was pretty good, but it could leak from time to time with YouTube ads. Sometimes needed a little extra to make sure you got everything on YouTube.

Yes, interesting. I see that it got forked a few years back into something called Blink. I didn’t realize that.

Those are all just WebKit-based browsers, which is Safari, too. UBlock Origin Lite works just as well though.

I remember, like 15 years ago, you used to have to install a whole bunch of different extensions to filter them all out. Now it’s one extension, and it pretty much comes perfectly configured right out of the box. You don’t even need to fiddle with it.

And I think it’s a same extension for every browser

I’ve practically forgotten that ads exist to the point that, on the very, very rare occasion, I ever encounter one, I react like a vampire encountering sunlight

Curious about that one too

Ew…

Oh, wow, I had no idea that the show was still going on. Incredible.

Dirty coporats. I guess ‘ol Johnny Silverhand is gonna have to blow up Arasaka tower again.

Only because Google actually worked as advertised (and only as advertised). Compared to what Google is now, that’s a matter of opinion.

All things considered, I’ll take the Google of yesteryear over the Google of today. I’ll also take a more privative and much goofier/glitchier YouTube.

Shit, I remember when having a Gmail account was a coveted thing that required an invite that people paid literally hundreds, even thousands of dollars for. I had five, and I sold one for $2k, and another for $4k. (These people were total twats). Decades later, I still use my fistname.lastname@gmail.com addy, while one is dead, and the other got married 2 months later and changed their name anyway. Idiots, lol. Weeks later, invite Scott bumped up to 50, then 250, then unlimited, then it got opened to the public.

Being impatient is expensive.

Grad school was a crazy time

possibly-- Homer may have been an actual person, or the name may just refer to an amalgamation of people who compiled many myths and legends, passed down for generations through oral tradition, to paper, once and for all.

Unironically, that’s usually what most geocities pages were about

I have no obligations for the rest of the day. I’m currently vacillating between making coffee and not making coffee before I go and play cyberpunk 2077 for the rest of the day.

Update: I made coffee

It’s also uncertain whether Homer was even a real person himself.

Eh, back when GeoCities was still a thing, most people were too busy actually having a life to regularly post about it online. Since this was before smartphones, updating a social media profile was a lot more complicated and time-consuming.

Having an active social media profile back then was often a red flag that a person was more “talk” than “walk“.
