    Do you think cable tv will have a comeback?

    It'll be less of the cable companies getting cheaper, and more of the streaming services getting dumber. It's already dumb where they all have exclusive shows, so they have the capability to having you own all of the streaming services to where it will cost more than paying for cable.

    Old vs New?

    It's nothing super special. Just stuff like my favorite albums that you can buy at a store. Something like Radiohead's Ok Computer is great.

    Cheat codes

    I did the Missingo glitch in Gen 1 Pokémon for extra items and TM’s. I also did the clone glitch in Gen 2 for the same items. I also wanted all of the Eeveelutions, and it was faster to clone it than throwing one into the daycare and hatching multiple eggs.

    Should Schools Ban Homework?

    Tbh I think something like math is or foreign languages is fine, because it’s one of those things where practice makes you better at it. Despite being a person that loves history, homework for that is useless. Which is why I was glad those classes I took in college didn’t have homework assignments.

    Favorite operating system

    I still remember for while after 7 came out that people were hating on it because it was basically Vista 2.0 and was wanted Microsoft to make XP 2.0. People already forgot Windows 7 was not liked when it came out. They also already forgot 10 was not liked either.

    Old vs New?

    Nice, welcome to the club. Just don’t get into the hobby for audio quality. That’s a really deep rabbit hole. You’ll end up spending hours of research on what pressing of what album is the best sounding one. Just make it simple and just grab your favorite albums. Also, don’t listen to people...

    What's the game you always go back to?

    I replay Donkey Kong Country 2 all the trigger time, and Link’s Awakening

    Old vs New?

    Depends on what it is. Some things like TV’s I only replace when they die. Computers and phones I upgrade somewhat regularly. I also like collecting retro games and I have a CRT, but also have modern consoles too.

    Akira

    I personally don’t like the movie, though it’s more of a “it’s not my thing” as opposed to thinking the movie is bad.

    Raspberry Pi

    It's not really that technical. It's basically just having a dedicated computer you can leave on 24/7 to run the cameras. You basically just need to just install the camera monitoring software on it, and just let it do its thing. The form factor of the Raspberry Pi is nice for this kind of...

    Has country music sold out?

    Tbh even though I hate country music, people have been saying that for decades. All of the stuff that are considered classics now were hated by purists and critics, but were commercially successful. It’s also weird that as you get older, some of the stuff that was popular was hated by snobs in...

    Why do kids not want to do school-work or homework?

    I was more interested with playing with my toys or video games, or watching cartoons than some stupid schoolwork.

    Raspberry Pi

    I got it running off a Mac Mini, which was plenty enough

    Raspberry Pi

    I thought of getting one as a Plex server, but it didn’t have enough horsepower for it.

    Your computer

    Tbh I always found touchscreen laptops useless for me. It’s one of those things I use a couple of times in the beginning, and then never again. Also most convertible laptops are never good at being tablets and just want you to get an actual tablet even more. Windows has gotten better with...

    Free vs Paid Forum Software

    There’s pros and cons. Some of the free services don’t give you access to your database, so if you wanna move to a paid hosting site, you’re screwed. Other free sites let you do that. Though one of the biggest downfalls of free hosting is that they don’t let you install whatever plugins you want.

    ForumPromotion.net

    Well there’s a difference between suggesting it vs saying you can’t succeed without it. That’s what I found ironic with them telling me I couldn’t succeed with a free host and those free domains those sites gave you, yet their sites were ghost towns. That’s why I felt defiant back then to do the...

    ForumPromotion.net

    Tbh I never participated in those contests, but they had a banner or something in the forum announcing the winner. It got oddly suspicious when you would see month after month it was always the forums owned by the staff members. The reason why I kept going was more like sticking it to the man...

    Who drives in the snow?

    I hate driving in the snow because of the other drivers. Most people are driving slow for a reason, until that one asshole in the big truck thinks he can drive 70 and honks at everyone who drives slow.
