What band or music group would you not have minded if they didn't have a certain band member?

My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole....

amio,

Roger Waters put a damper on my enjoyment of Pink Floyd.

amio,

The pro Russia part does.

amio,

Yeah no, it's all right, you guys - it's a synthespian.

amio,

So they're ripping off the game that ripped them off. The industry is in an absolute state.

amio,

There are some beautiful argument chains.

Doubt.

amio,

Wow, imagine calling out a fucker like that, how dare you.

amio,

Yeah, well, no fucking shit, what'd they think was the point of the campaign?

These guys...

amio,

You literally can't get away from it. The human brain is made to stereotype, the trick is trying to be aware of how and what implications that has for how you treat people.

amio,

GOG if available, no DRM and while I think they do have a launcher, I don't think it's required. I could be wrong...

Steam does tend to be annoying about logging in and out, not necessarily letting you choose to update stuff, it has DRM and requires internet (or will at least be annoying about it).

GOG is more like, gosh, downloading some software and then running it. Without it doing 11 kinds of random shit on you.

amio,

Hated every kind, had some actually great ones in Greece, now I can sorta kinda get behind black olives. Greens are still a bit too bitter for my preference.

amio,

Such depth for a movie about a guy and his dog.

A movie about a guy and, extremely briefly, his dog.

amio,

To be fair, back in the day you could get better results by relying on Google with site:foobar and the Boolean/"power user" stuff. A lot of built-in search boxes on sites were a bit dodgy, or at least less flexible than AND/OR/NOT and other "power user tricks".

Of course, these days those seem to be ignored wholesale and even "verbatim quotes" are an utter crapshoot, this was back when Google didn't fucking blow.

amio,

"site" does work still, I think, just plus a lot of irrelevant drivel - standard Google fare, you see it on Youtube too.

I'd consider the most basic case to be, specifically, the "quotes for verbatim results", which definitely do not work anymore. Neither does + for a positively (hue hue) required term, a close second.

amio,

Imagining that line spoken by Joe Lycett.

amio,

It shows you the passage too. Albeit for maybe one second, which was just not terribly smart design. But it does show you or mention it somewhere - a lot of OoT is like that.

amio,

Fite me irl

Roasted/broiled/pan fried sprouts are amazing, though.

What should be crossed out is the rutabaga.

[request] Help finding a space movie

An astronaut crash lands on an elongated asteroid with extremely strong gravity. He manages to crawl away from his ship and finds that the gravity in the middle is normal and the gravity at the far end is reversed. Time is also affected by gravity and goes backward at the far end of the asteroid. His dog was injured and he...

amio,

Wow, 2.7/10 on imdb. Must be a good'un.

amio,

"If you could-" Can't, though.

What in the name of Holy Super-Obvious Fucking Scam, Batman is this shit?

amio,

Sounds like the mutie's fault for making assumptions about others' rectal capacity.

amio,

Yeah, OK, that's not bloody terrifying or anything.

amio,

N64 is my favorite console of all time, but yeah, the controller is truly batshit insane. I even had a game that intended you to hold the left and right... prongs instead of center right. In a shocking twist, it was... still pretty awkward.

I do like PS5 controllers - mostly play N64 games on them, never even owned a PS. Used a PS4 controller before that.

amio,

Welp. If SO had been usable for the past decade, that would've been a real blow.

amio,

Nah. The pattern is cool as hell though.
