I started work on a long promised explanation. This will be on my actual writer site I have:

I haven’t updated it in some time but this is the site:

I had planned to write this later but events pushed me to go ahead and start on it. I thought about making it a video but that video would be too long. I want it written out. I want DC, Marvel, and Image to know I’ll never work for them and why. I’ll let you guys know when it goes live. It’ll be a few weeks with other things I’m working on. So many things.

Now ive reinstalled windows three times today because asstastic windows bootloader is asstastic and decided hurr durr im going to split myself over three hard drives to make it impossible to boot off of any of them unless all three are in the same system
GG

At least I have my 2tb drive with important stuff on it and most of my games.

ITS ALIVE
and i have all my games and my archives
lost some programs but meh?

and now im almost back up to speed

Let the ripping begin again.
200 episodes, 8 seasons.

Oh, That 70s Show on bluray. 16 discs with 25-ish episodes per season. Packaging is better than on the X-Files box cause 2 discs per case (on each side one when you open it). None of that spindle shit.

What the fuck is that shit? Why aren’t they showing the price before you put it in your cart?

Is this one of those suggestive “if you have to ask for the price you can’t afford it” things, so it “must be good” or is there a legit reason to do this?

The only reason I can think of that places do this is to keep a leg-up on stores that do price matching. Since the price isn’t advertised they can’t match it. However, the hidden price may not be the best price anyway so that’s a thing.

Still kinda shitty.
Imagine there were no price tags on products in stores and you have to put them into your shopping cart and the guy at the register will whisper you their price in your ear and only then you can decide if you want to buy it or not.

I’m not saying this is what happens but with a system like this couldn’t a shady retailer calculate the price dynamically at checkout based on other factors with your account such as where you live etc instead of transparently displaying the price for everyone.

Eh, thats not that creepy. Some chains now collect data on every single thing you do inside the store, how tall you are, who you are with, what you look at, what you actually pick, what people are interested in as a whole, so on and so forth. Which is pretty creepy indeed.

So…it’s already happening?

Didn’t Facebook do the same? Tracking the cursor to see what locations you hover over with it and for how long?

But this is in real life lol…

ah I forgot about that stuff, still something like this happening at retail for physical items is far worse in my opinion and would probably be highly regulated if found out.

Just a different place.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple and the likes are logging your GPS location in combination with your biometric data. “Oh, look. His heartrate went up when he stopped outside of this shop and according to his calendar he’s not in a hurry for an appointment. Must be interested in the products of this store, lets send him some ads”.

Congrats. You have found a problem. How much will it cost to make it go away?

And the wheel lands on 3 human souls
