  • Does anyone else remember when Windows 98 would let you change your DVD drive’s region, but only let you do it five times total before you were permanently locked into the region you selected the fifth time?

    I was so tempted to change the setting just for fun, but never did because the warning message scared the shit out of 12-year-old me.


  • Sorry for the confusion. TBF, a lot of the games I’m seeing in the comments were made into video games as well, which doesn’t help. The name of this community isn’t helping, either, lol. Probably should have been called something like tabletop_rpg instead, since these days most people associate RPGs with the video game form factor.






  • [a student] had resorted to learning from videos on YouTube but describes being nervous when eventually faced with the real thing.

    Wait, what? How was he using YouTube if he couldn’t figure out how to use a computer? This implies that he knows how to use some sort of computing device. Dude figured out a phone but not a PC? I always thought that if you could learn to use one, picking up the other could come naturally, even your first time. I mean back in 2012 I picked up on Android pretty quickly after only ever having PCs and brick phones since the 80s.
