I also switched to MusicBee. It has a very modern UI that "just works" as they say. Everything included out of the box no need to bother with plugins for me.

I was really sick of where I was living, I quit my job, drove across the country. Took one week off to relax, unpack, etc. Put up my resume on the usual sites and started getting calls 9 am the next day. Had a job in a week.

SomethingAwful forums were NEVER about any kind of free speech. They had stifling censorship that drove a lot of the regulars off the forums for good.

I just use the built in Google backup stuff. I save my NovaLauncher layout before I get a new phone. I have 200 gigs of music and I don't bother to back it up because I have multiple copies of it backed up.

I'm old so I remember when SomethingAwful was like 4chan and reddit combined for its time. I never actually registered an account on the forums, I was busy on other sites. My biggest issue with the SA forums is how they abused their us

When I got online in 1996-1997 there was some website that played with font sizing and graphics to make the biggest Fuck on the internet. Like it would take a couple minutes to scroll on an old 640x480 monitor. Good times lol.

I was still in college when the Raptor came out. I had an affluent friend who put two in RAID0 and I never saw Windows XP boot up so fast. He has some kind of solution rigged up for the noise so it was noticeable but pretty muffled. I was s

I emailed Matrox and asked if support for GLQuake was coming and they emailed me back and said "We are currently working on the drivers" Total lie. The Mystique was completely incapable of supporting GLQuake. Live and learn. I had

I stopped using Waterfox back in like 2010-2012(not sure the exact year) and switched to Cyberfox. Then to Chrome, back to Firefox. I don't see any point in using Waterfox in 2021.
