    Valve's DRM was inspired by an exec's nephew, who 'used a $500 check I'd sent him for school expenses and bought himself a CD-ROM replicator… he sent me a lovely thank you note'

      Generational shift means kids bad and stupid. That’s all.

      A tip for millenials: Whenever you cringe at zoomers for their dumb tiktok dances, remember the badger song and realise every generation is stupid and cringe.

        Or just search millennial humor on TikTok and die. Recently tried watching SNL with the family and I cannot understand that humor at all.

          Man, any of that comedy central pop comedy stuff… Older movies too, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley… I don’t get any of it and that stuff pretty much was my time. It’s like people just acted really stupid… There was not any comedy to it, it’s just feels sad.

            Same, I think some people find some things funny and some don’t and it isn’t all about generational cohort

          It predates YouTube and would loop forever.

        That’s so funny that millennials cringe at zoomers, because I have always found millennials to be infinitely more cringe than zoomers have ever been.
