Heck, the other week I got an ad telling me “Doom: The Dark Ages” had been released and that it is “thrilling” in the toast area. This despite me never having used the Xbox or windows gaming apps and actually having uninstalled them only fo

The -Ough in enough and tough and in borough and dough are pronounced the same, at least in any accent I can think of.

What sort of evil bullshit did Nintendo get up to with the Switch 2 launch? I don't follow gaming news.

My roommate freshman year of college was hocking P90X boxes and trying to get a "downstream" going. Quacks like a duck to me.

If Photos is recent then Google search was recent when Photos was released! It’s a decade old and that’s only if we don’t count what it was before it was spun into its own product, google’s more recent integrations spun as “releases” non wi

Yep, it’s been that way for 20+ years! The term “weeaboo” as a term for western anime fans only came about because it was what the word “wapanese” filtered to. It was originally a nonsense work made up in a Perry Bible Fellowship comic.

The above poster was fairly obviously using a figure of speech, they did not mean that there was a specific formal evaluation like a mid-year review every hour. Think about what the average salaried person (especially outside of tech) might

Did I download the game from Dell’s servers? Was the game made using tools authored by Dell? Did the game go through a quality assurance process run by Dell? I know at one point they ran a digital distribution platform and I’d be highly sur

That’s not entirely true, in Spotify’s early days you could upload files to the service and listen to songs uploaded by other people. I think the majority of any song I wanted to listen to before they went Europe-only for a time was “pirate

Twitter’s (X) “following” feed is not a purely chronological feed. I will often see tweets from people I follow on “For You” that don’t show up in the other feed. It also tries really hard to direct you over to the For You feed silently at

A $2650 mortgage in Bethlehem PA is a very, very big house. You can’t apply the average mortgage price to a place where you can get a 2000 sqft house for under $200K. Additionally Bethlehem PA is an above average area for PA when it comes t
