Twitter took off because people could follow someone without having to be confirmed as a follower and follow them back (because before then social media companies like facebook said "to follow someone they have to let you and follow you back, because being able to follow anyone is what killed myspace"). Also, for some reason "send a 1 page text to the world" appealed to celebrities and politicians since "forced short message" was more palatable than "possible long message," and I want to say that because of the small character limit twitter could be integrated with dumb phones making it easier to make messages (but don't quote me on that, I was there for the dawn of twitter but I wasn't allowed to use social media back then and also didn't really care to use it because of what it was doing so I don't remember how it all worked early on).

I couldn't remember the exact size so I wanted to be conservative and use the largest standard size physical media.

I think this says more about our tap water than our fish.

Someone one ran the numbers on the entire NES library, all thousand something games on the entire global library all languages can fit on a single bluray, or something really small like that. I know a jpeg screenshot of SMB at game resolution. is larger than the entire game.

Thanks. It might end up being 3 stooges at home now, but that still works.

Sounds like someone went into engineering.

Black Dynamite is an amazing movie. The thing I appreciate most is that the director insisted on filming on super low quality film stock to make it authentic to the blackploytation movies of the 70s. I had to show my brother the actual release year because he didn't believe me it was released in 2009.

You probably know my face if you sort by fresh or rising (because I never make it to front); it haunts your dreams at night. gigalol:pokematic
