  1. I downloaded & tried to play it... on Ghost Towns Is the First 8K Video Posted To YouTube -- But Can You Watch It? · · Score: 1

    ... But my old desktops couldn't play them in both Windows (MPC-HC and VLC) and Linux/Debian oldstable's (c too)VLC and Mplayer. :( VLC worked on my king ant's MacBook Pro (2012), but it was choppy. :(

    Just download it with youtube-dl command:

    $ youtube-dl -f bestvideo+bestaudio https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

    Try SeaMonkey that uses the same Firefox's Gecko engine? http://www.seamonkey-project.o...

  4. Re:Seamonkey on Mozilla Responds To Firefox User Backlash Over Pocket Integration · · Score: 1

    Ditto. Only its Gecko engine gets updated. However, SM is still at v2.33.1 due to recent build problems. :(

    And yet no $$$ and never coming back. :/

    But don't we want to get systemd since it is the future? :( I am just going to stick with oldstable for a while.

    Yeah, I bet he will outlive all of his ST:TOS actors and maybe his fans too. :O

    Why a single dime in USA? Try a penny. ;)

    There are still many left. :(

  12. Re:REVENGE! on Why Americans Loathe Cable Companies · · Score: 1

    Cable companies are lucky to do more than TV services. They can do phone, Internet, alarms, etc. these days. I really miss the competition like other fast and affordable landline Internet services. No DSL and FIOS for me. :(

    My king ant used it. :/

  14. Re:Really, USB floppy? on Features That Windows 10 Will Deprecate · · Score: 1

    I still used 3.5" floppy disks, mostly bootable DOS disks, on very old IBM PCs at my former workplace back in the beginning of this year. Much faster than using the bootable Windows PE discs. :P

  15. What about coyotes that like to visit and poop in the backyard. Argh!

  16. Re:The "review bombing" is already happening. on Valve Introduces Steam Refunds In Advance of Summer Sale · · Score: 1

    Most of mine were free samplers like playable demo(nstration)s, free week(end)s, trying on someone else's platforms in person, etc.

    Yep, I have this problem. In my old nest, I used to be able to get free TV with OTA. Not here due to small mountains/giant hills, trees, wrong side, etc. :(

  20. Re:Exactly. on Netflix Is Experimenting With Advertising · · Score: 1

    Netflix's era is pretty short compared to cable TV's. Maybe Netflix should have an ad-free (paid) and ad (no paying) services.

  21. Web of Trust! on SourceForge and GIMP [Updated] · · Score: 1

    Others and I rated negatively on https://www.mywot.com/en/score... ... Overall, still showing positive ratings since SF is an old popular web site. :(

  22. Re:Seems to Be a Pattern of Behavior on SourceForge and GIMP [Updated] · · Score: 1

    But once in a while, they get unchecked to enable the ads. Sometimes I never notice because I am using ABP extension. ;)

    I wasn't impresed with its pilot episode. Did it get better? Did it have a good finale even though it got the axe?

    My parents thought my Apple //c would be worth a lot in 2008, but nope when I checked online. So, we just donated it. Maybe it will be worth a lot after I am dead at 100 or so! :P
