listening to that album atm idk if it's the ganja or not but it sounds way better to me now than it did when I first got it in 2008 maybe it's because now I'm more into minimal techno type stuff

I used to love going into CompUSA.
Circuit City sucked, but I remember them too.
CompUSA was cool too Back in the day Staples was actually a respectable electronics store, they had so many awesome things to see and explore. I remember going to the one near my grandparent's house with my friend when we were like 11 - 13, seeing all the desktops and latest gizmos ... I used to feel so much more excited for the future of technology back then.
Funny how this toxo scare didn't come about until just a couple years ago Who's pushing this and why now all of a sudden? You never heard about toxoplasmosis back in the early 10s and 00s

I thought best buy folded long ago.
They're still around. Sadly my favorite tech store Fry's seems to be going through some serious issues, sad really they were so amazing back in the mid 00s.

tbh we really shouldn't be promoting this website at all if it ever becomes a thing like more popular websites then you would draw a lot of unwanted attention, we could no longer shittalk about the things we do without getting emails from certain organizations.
It's probably not as big of an issue as the media and internet are making it out to seem. Right now there is this far left liberal agenda to turn everything in society further towards the left, take the gamergate fiasco and the sudden rise in political correctness. Trannies have existed for millions of years but no one knew they existed because it was so rare, now in today's far left world people are pushing anything and everything that breaks down societal norms. Same thing with homos, they're really not that common, but because of the jews and far left media they seem like a bigger deal than reality has it.
When the PS2 came out it was the most gigantic leap in fidelity in gaming history, but going to the PS3 was an extreme letdown as the games didn't look that much different from PS2 tier graphics, and on an HDTV the games looked blurry and very aliased. Going from the PS3 to the PS4 was another "meh" experience, since the games were basically just 7th gen games running on a pc. Years have passed and now we are approaching a new generation of gaming, the 9th, which officially began with the Nintendo Switch. Sony is promising that the PS5 will be the biggest leap in performance and fidelity yet, but I'm not getting my hopes up ... however
If it looks anything like this Square-Enix tech demo from 7 years ago then I will be blown away
That was running in real time on hardware from 7 years ago, they must have known that by this time there would be console hardware capable of running near or past those specs. Before the PS4 was released Sony warned that it wouldn't be a monumental leap and a slight improvement over the PS3 so people wouldn't get their hopes up .... but now things have changed.
Imagine that level of fidelity with games like Grand Theft Auto, The Elder Scrolls and if we're fortunate enough ... a new Silent Hill.
I know some of you here doubt the validity of this, but the next consoles will feature Ray Tracing, with hardware built in specifically to handle that. Sony has worked on their own proprietary method, so games will featuring lighting similar to this tech demo
And yes, visuals on par with that level of fidelity.
You can all doubt me here all you want, but two to four years into the PS5 life games are going to look absolutely fucking next gen tier amazing.
Imagine a proper (Japanese made, not western pigdog) Silent Hill with aesthetics similar to SH3, imagine exploring the otherworld with ray tracing enabled .....
I can't fucking wait
btw the PS5 is going to be released November of 2020

The government and tech industry should get together and realize how detrimental these things, when used at a mass scale, are to the public. People need to realize that human interaction requires physicality, it is absolutely not comparable whatsoever to "socialize" over the web, games, text etc. Even in VR you're still not getting an actual, physical experience that human brains have come to require through millions of years of evolution, you would be staring at a virtual animated character that has a human voice coming from its direction, not the same as real interaction. I know better than anyone considering I have spent the majority of my life in isolation and living on the web. My happiest memories in life were going to my friend's apartments and seeing what consoles and games they had, walking through the neighborhood with them, going to taco bell etc
Schools should ban all electronics except for desktops in the computer lab (for teaching them how to type and post on NIS)
