You all should be angry, and quite frankly, pissed off at both Sony and the infamous UMG record label. They are trying to get a stupid-ass law passed that might end up killing the Internet entirely if it goes through. This new proposed law brought on by these companies will turn your Internet service into an expensive paperweight if you are found to be pirating anime content. You watch a clip of an anime on YouTube, by any chance if this law is passed? BOOM - you have just permanently lost access to your Internet service entirely. This law is a massive human rights violation and is a massive breach of privacy! What if you just watched an anime clip on a website such as Twitter and had no idea that it was a pirated clip? What if you didn't do anything wrong and are living with someone who was in fact pirating anime content? Nope, you still lose access to your Internet seemingly for the rest of your life and it applies to the whole household. That's right, your service will never be turned back on if you break this proposed law even ONCE. There is one side you should draw your pitchforks to and that is Sony and Universal Music. This is going to flat-out kill the Internet if this is passed. These companies need to know that what they're doing is a MASSIVE overreach and overstepping of their boundaries. If this gets passed then I am fully expecting UMG and Sony stocks to tank like crazy, the foundation of YouTube being entirely ruined, VPN sales increasing tenfold, and even hackers attempting data breaches on both companies. We need to stop this from moving forward! I am getting sick and tired of these stupid companies trying to bully us normal internet users into submission. We need to start fighting back and pushing back against the narratives these companies propagate! Enough is ENOUGH! We should REFUSE to stand by and have our basic human rights listed in the Constitution ripped away from us ANY LONGER! WE ALL SHOULD PROTEST AGAINST THIS LAW AND DEMAND THAT IT IS SHELVED FOR GOOD. AND ESPECIALLY BOYCOTT BOTH SONY AND UMG! There's already been severe backlash online regarding this proposed law and I can bet there's gonna be so much more later on should this law actually be taken into effect. And I bet this law is going to end up backfiring in both Sony and UMG's faces spectacularly. I can fully bet that this is probably just gonna end up causing the number of people pirating anime content to increase tenfold - a classic case of the Cobra Effect in action.

My final words? Fuck you Sony and UMG! Please do the world a favor and go kindly FUCK YOURSELVES! 🖕

Blacklisted from The Internet Over Anime Piracy if This Law Backed by Sony and UMG Passes

You know what's BULLLLLLLSHIT? Those tiny-ass door locks that you have to push to lock the door. Who designed these? They are seriously the worst fucking door locking mechanism I have ever seen in my entire life. You know how on most doors, especially bathroom doors, where they have dials that you turn to lock and unlock the door? Super convenient and easy to use. But those fucking tiny lock buttons you have to push are the complete opposite. These things are so poorly and horribly designed. They malfunction so fucking easily! They are these tiny little buttons right next to the doorknob that you, you guessed it, push to lock the door, and you have to turn the doorknob for the lock to be disengaged. These things are so prone to issues, it's unreal! Sometimes, the goddamn lock refuses to deactivate after the doorknob is turned and actually gets jammed! So, you'll have to fight with getting the fucker freed so the door can be properly used from the outside. But wait, that's not all. Imagine if you lock the door with one of these things to go to the bathroom. I mean, no one wants to see you do your business! So, it would be logical to lock the door. And then, when you are done, you get out, and you shut the door behind you, thinking nothing of it, but behind your back, guess what? The fucking lock is still active! And you didn't even notice it. And then, when you try to open the door again, you can't! Congratulations, idiot! You just locked yourself out of the bathroom. And now, since you have no way of getting into the bathroom because of the shitty lock still being primed, your only hope? Pry open the door with elbow grease using random things from your home. No one wants to do this shit! It's much extra work! Especially when you gotta go really bad! You can't just afford to shit yourself, you gotta go take care of yourself! But the damn lock won't fucking budge, no matter how hard you try and get the door loose! You try everything; screwdrivers, your whole body, pens, pencils, scissors, and everything else. No. Dice. The door won't move a fucking inch. And then, you finally get in after like 30 or so minutes, and realize the goddamn lock was still turned on! How were you even supposed to know that? I've had this bullshit happen twice to me already with the bathroom door in my living room. Twice. Both times I had to pry the damn door open. The first time, I had to use a flyswatter, and the second? A god. Damn. Backscratcher. Yes! I am NOT kidding! I had to use a fucking BACKSCRATCHER to pry open a goddamn DOOR that wouldn't budge! And it's all because of this fucker. How are these things even allowed to be sold, let alone produced? They are so prone to getting stuck and jammed that there's gonna be a shit-ton of incidents like this one! Why can't all doors just have a goddamn dial lock like every other door out there? It's such a laughably bad excuse of a door locking mechanism. It works fine except when it doesn't want to. I can't even fathom how often people have locked themselves out of their bathrooms, their rooms, or even their entire fucking homes due to these bastards. This is such garbage-ass design! These fucking things should be OUTLAWED! And you know the little "clink" sound that the lock makes after its been deactivated? Well, when it gets jammed, it makes no such noise. But, you don't really think anything about it and shut the door when you're out, and you end up unintentionally locking yourself out because of shitty-ass architecture! It doesn't help that the doorknob on the outside can't be moved for shit when the lock is active. So, if you lock yourself out due to one of these, you gotta pry the damn thing open to get back in. Those tiny buttons just feel so fucking cheaply made. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised with how often they malfunction! It's just a simple-ass door lock and it ends up fucking people over and causing them undue stress and loss of time for no reason. These things piss me the fuck off. Why did anyone think these door locks were a good idea? They're not! Not even close! They all too often stop working correctly and require unjamming. I mean, what the fuck? These things need to be just flat-out banned across the entire goddamn country. Yeah, imagine if your fucking car had one of these! You'd be fucked! You wouldn't even be able to get in your vehicle to drive. You wouldn't be able to go to work, get gas, get groceries, anything! You'd be stuck with a fucking door that takes an eternity to get open if you have the strength and patience. But if not? Boom! Probably fired from your job. "Yeah, my car door is jammed!" "No excuses, fired".

These tiny-ass door lock buttons existing is proof that we've failed as a society. And THAT... is BULLSHIT.

What is that one video game cheat code you'll never forget about?

I'll start us off with the classic "Explode All Cars" cheat from the classic 2004 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as that is one that I remember using a lot for no rhyme or reason:

R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, TRIANGLE, L2, L1

Face it guys, Kerbal Space Program 2 is officially dead in the water.

This game was released to Early Access with a LOT of missing features, with a full $50 AAA game price tag. The price of the game along with the amount of content was absolutely not worth it at all. Not to mention they were planning to jack UP the price of the game after it left Early Access - wouldn't have been surprised if the game was $69.99 on full release. The progress of development was slow beyond belief and there was barely any major updates other than just patches to fix the numerous amount of bugs in the game. The amount of bugs and glitches during its EA launch was abysmal, especially for one priced at 50 goddamn dollars.

The only major update that was given to this game finally added new, promised content and was looking to be on the right track, but still, an abhorrent amount of bugs and a ton of missing content. This game had probably a rough estimate of around 90% of content missing from the original KSP. It looked to finally be going somewhere, and then, boom, Take-Two shuts down the studio working on it, Intercept Games, leaving the game entirely unfinished and in the same state that the game was in after its last update, with a whole host of bugs and glitches. The game was looking to finally start getting its footing in the right places, and then, all of a sudden, studio shuts down and there is now no longer any progress being made on it. And they still had the nerve to charge people 50 dollarydoos for the game in its now abandoned state. That is absolutely scummy and ought to be illegal.

This game has officially become 'dead and abandoned mall' status where all that you can see are rows of stores with those big metal gates blocking the entrances to them. But, in this case, the game is still available to be purchased in this absolutely atrocious state. This is BELOW any standard of quality I have ever seen. This is pretty much Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 all over again: game launches in a horrible state, content starts coming out to make the game better, Robomodo is then shut down by Activision, game left unfinished. But, it's in fact in a worse state than THPS 5 in my opinion since this game is still on sale in a now "permanent" Early Access state despite no progress being made, and still able to be bought.

And then, Take-Two puts the game on SALE? ALREADY? This game went on sale as quickly as Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League did! And that was a full $70 live service game! That is absolutely laughable.

But, that's not all. New company owns this game now, and if you're getting your hopes up for the future of Kerbal Space Program 2, just get rid of all of those hopes already, as this game is now being controlled by a private equity firm. I wouldn't say the game is "actually dead", but "content dead". The game is not actually 'dead', it's just under... 'new management'. Don't even think that this game is getting new content, either. It's not. Private equity firms are NOT publishers, they are instead an IP PRISON. Nothing is going to be done with it. It's going to be kept in the same unfinished state as it was in last time with no new fixes, patches, or improvements. Not even any new content. The only thing these firms truly care about is money.

The fact that this game is STILL being sold should be classified as a scam. Even when THPS 5's developer was closed down, Activision at least took the game offsale digitally. But this? The studio is now shut down and completely non-existent, and yet the game is still up for sale. Still available to be purchased digitally despite the fact the game is going to be left in a permanently unfinished state due to Intercept Games' closure. Selling an unfinished game in Early Access despite the developer being shut down should be illegal.

I literally got this game for COMPLETELY free and still feel ripped off.

All of my hope for this game is now lost. It's officially been cut loose. This game NEEDS to be delisted as it has been turned into a straight-up scam that is probably still conning and tricking people. If they won't take the game offsale themselves then Valve should step in and delist the game manually as it is no longer being maintained.

It's completely dead, guys, just move back to KSP 1. It's over and you know it.

I am literally sick and fucking tired of video editors locking features behind paywalls. It's like "Oh, you found a feature that you actually NEED to use? Well, fuck you, pay 20 dollars a month to use that one feature you need!". The free versions ALWAYS have less goddamn features then the paid versions to the point where they actually become borderline fucking unusable. A free plan is always a cop-out to get people to pay for overpriced bullshit with the excuse of "Feature addition!". It's fucking stupid. Every goddamn video editor out there is paid, every one of them. Basic free plans always have the basic and fucking barebones features that qualifies it as "video editing software", and the actual useful features that you might need access to are always locked behind fucking expensive subscription plans that are overpriced as shit. Come on, the original Movie Maker had a ton of more fucking features and was FREE as it came pre-installed with Windows. Guess what? WeVideo? Fucking useless for anyone on its free plan. A huge-ass watermark that takes up way too much of the screen, video length restrictions, low-ass quality with not even ANY of the HD Export options being available for free users (basic 720p and even FULL 1080p), and a ton of other restrictions. You'd have better luck finding a goddamn heads up penny than you are finding a truly free video editor without ANY of the bullshit paid tiers with features locked in it. It's gotten to the point where ANY fucking time I go on a website for a video editor and see a "Pricing" page on it, it's an instant and IMMEDIATE blacklist and I will fucking avoid it like the goddamn plague. I literally will go look for something else. Paywalling features doesn't 'attract' new customers. Quite the goddamn opposite. It instead DETERS them and instantly drives them away from your product or service. Over 10 years ago it was so easy to find a free video editor that suited your needs, all features were included in installation without any features being locked. And now, everything requires some form of goddamn payment to access them. Even the few things still labeled as "free". But I am sure people are gonna come in saying "Oh, but they need to pay for server costs and hosting", to which I will respond with "NO ONE is going to be paying for a service that makes certain features paid and TAKES AWAY features from users stuck on their free plan". It's like every goddamn open source video editor is SOMEHOW making more goddamn money than the paid shit... gee, I WONDER FUCKING WHY! People are literally donating to the people making these to keep the program running while with the premium shit you have to pay to "ACCESS CERTAIN FEATURES". There's a fine line between necessity to survive and greed, and it's FULLY clear to me which fucking side the premium crap uses. Guess what? Davinci Resolve has EVERY feature included on its free tier. No bullshit. No stupid paywalling. No excuses. Everything is accessible, and if you want extra features (keyword: EXTRA), you can pay for Studio which is a one-time payment of $295, and then the ENTIRE software is yours with no stupid subscription plans or extra payments required. Like, I just wanna be able to EDIT MY GODDAMN VIDEOS and yet EVERY GODDAMN VIDEO EDITOR OUT THERE IS FUCKING PAID WITH FEATURES LOCKED BEHIND PAYWALLS! I'm not giving any of my fucking time or money to video editors where you have to pay to access all of the features. And yet, somehow, the prices of EVERY single video editor out there are going up in price while wages don't keep up. STOP. RAISING. PRICES. We need the programs to cost LESS, not MORE! Oh, and yeah, since every goddamn video editor out there with a "free plan" that is missing basically 90% of the full program's features you can bet your fucking ASS that people are pirating them. Especially when they are THIS fucking outrageously expensive. This is the EXACT fucking reason why piracy is still running rampant, and instead of making things cheaper, they make things MORE expensive, which only drives up the number of pirates even more. And guess what? Pirates? They get everything for free yet the legitimate customer is fucked over because they have to PAY to use these features while pirates can enjoy them without paying a SINGLE fucking cent. Louis Rossman put it perfectly: "Any time you create a system where the pirate is rewarded yet the legitimate customer gets screwed, the legitimate customer decides they're gonna pirate and they will never give you money again", which ties directly into Gabe Newell's famous quote where he said that it's not a pricing issue, but rather a service issue. Why the fuck do you think Davinci Resolve is making more goddamn money than those "free" video editors with features locked behind paywalls? Nearly everything is free out of the box and you don't need a subscription plan to use them. And if you make the paid options better than the free options, then oh wow, you're ALL of a sudden making more money. Gee, I wonder why. I'm not giving video editors that lock basically everything behind paid plans ANY of my money. My time is fucking valuable and I have far better things to worry about. So, they will see NO revenue from me. At all. Yeah, I'm not paying $20 a fucking MONTH for Sony Vegas. That shit is WAY TOO overpriced. My only other option is a "Free Trial" that WILL expire, and so, I kindly will say "fuck off" to Vegas as I will never be using it. And guess what? I won't pay over $200 for Davinci Resolve, either. But guess what? Davinci is free with most features, Vegas is not, it's a fucking free trial for the full product that will expire after the free trial lapses. Resolve is EASILY the better deal! I can use EVERYTHING for free. Boom! Easy recommend. I'm fucking tired of the goddamn excuses these companies give. You can ABSOLUTELY make people pay for your product without stripping features away and making them exclusive to paid tiers. But, you choose greed over consumers and I have FINALLY hit my fucking breaking point with this bullshit. It's either you make more features free for the less fortunate, or you can watch as your fucking numbers go down to the point where NO ONE'S using your shitty-ass product.

I'm fucking tired of this shit and I want it to STOP!
