@HustleBitch_ That’s because you’re using an HP…

🚨 PRINTER INK COSTS $32,000 A GALLON — AND PEOPLE ARE REALIZING THEY’VE BEEN GETTING RIPPED OFF "This should be illegal." A man at Target picks up a single black ink cartridge. Price? $63. Then he checks how much is actually inside. About half an ounce. Do the math. That puts this stuff at $30,000+ per gallon. More than a used mobile home. For printer ink. And here’s the part that has people pissed: You don’t get a choice. The printer is built to force you into their system. Cheaper ink? Blocked. Refill it yourself? Disabled. Wrong cartridge? Printer won’t even work. So you buy the printer… and then you’re stuck paying whatever they decide to charge. Over. And over. And over again. A locked system where the product is cheap and the refill is where they get you. If something costs more than gold and you’re forced to buy it… how is that not a scam?

@Matt_Pinner Yes, kids need to develop skills for how to handle life’s various stresses — and gardening is a superb choice! I have found it to be very therapeutic and healing.

Yes or no?

@BeingScots That dragon looks like he just cracked a funny joke! 😉

@CalumRaasay So, it was you that littered our ocean, eh!? 🤣 Haha Cool find! That will definitely be a treasured family keepsake… 👍

Can’t quite believe this. The kids at the island primary school were doing a beach clean and found a message in a bottle. From me. From 25 years ago!!

Things that happen in Scotland. 🙌🙏🫶👇

@GamewithDave LAN gaming is the best! Fastest connection with virtually no lag.

No gaming chairs. No fancy desks. Just ball mice, chunky CRTs, and sketchy internet. LAN parties were the golden era of gaming..

@exQUIZitely LucasArts was oftentimes known for its various StarWars games, while Sierra was infamous for rich, storytelling games that tended to shun away from violence. Instead, it oftentimes rewarded the player for cunning moves over primitive brute force.

Looking at the 90s, I would argue that: 🔥 id Software was the benchmark for FPS 🔥 MicroProse was the benchmark for simulations 🔥 Westwood was the benchmark for RTS ...but now it gets tricky, because I can't decide who the benchmark was for adventure games. I am torn between Sierra and LucasArts. Your vote please. Remember: 1990 to 1999

@FishingFather44 @exQUIZitely You can acquire Civ1 and play it via DosBox — for free. retrogames.cz/play_412-DOS.p…

@exQUIZitely Gotta go Civ2 because you can easily make it into anything via scenario creation. Civ1 was great though and some day I need to figure out how to play it again!

A glitch in the Matrix, all games after the year 2000 are wiped off the earth and you can only play one pre-2000 era game for the rest of your life. Which do you pick? I'd go with Civilization (1991).

@exQUIZitely Out of all of the Civilization games, I still greatly prefer the original one. I recently went back and replayed it and loved every moment of it. There’s something beautiful about its elegance and simplicity.

@RinoTheBouncer Not really. Most AI stuff tends to look awkward.

Would you?🚀

@RetrAshado What usually happens… LOL 😆

This cat is trying his best to teach his owner how to shorten his long claws - so cute!

@exQUIZitely We are friends, friend :) One condition, though. Do you recognize this screen?

If you recognize these 4 screens, we can be friends.
