I remember XKCD #1. I just did the math in my head and it’s been ~20 years. Fuck I’m old.

Not really. I was in college in the early to mid 90s. One of my fellow CS students had a NeXT cause he was loaded but the rest of us just used the computer labs.

No doubt - his focus has built some really cool stuff. He always struck me as a decent sort and his fight on behalf of the little guy when it comes to percentages paid to Steam, Apple, and his own Epic shows that too.

I went to highschool with him. We hung in the same crowd of nerds and geeks. Not sure if he’s changed as an adult, but back then he was extremely introverted. Hung out at a couple of parties in his parent’s basement (where he started his shareware empire) and he spent the whole time on his computer. Should he ever write his memoirs I suspect they would focus mostly on his business life and his anti-trust efforts against various companies.

It’ll mean all the movies are in the public domain as soon as they are released, since you can’t copyright AI work.

The guy on the left is so lazy he can’t even stand up straight to make his point. You got time to lean, you got time to suck cock buddy!

Nah, even my retcon explanation is a lie. I copied the quote from some famous quote website and didn’t catch the error.
