Best of luck with your endless tech support anytime something doesn’t work.
This ties into the comment I was going to make separately. For context, my dad recently passed. First father’s day without him. My mom asked to watch a movie that meant something to the both of them because they saw it together in a drive in on release and it was very memorable because the technology and techniques used were fascinating at the time. She complained that it wasn’t on Disney+ or anywhere.
You may have guessed it, but she requested Song of the South. One serious moral quandary later, I got it ready for her to watch.
Tomorrow is gonna be rough, but at least my sailing might bring some good memories for her.
That’s what shocked me at work. I’ve been pirating since limewire and then comes this 40-something Y/O mom, not even nerdy or computer savvy or something, and gives a performance like she’s already found the OnePirce and wanted to be the next Anne Bonny.
Just give them a usb of the show for Christ’s sake! Sneaker net that shit. Which show btw?
I tried that once. They never watched the show and didn’t give back the USB. 🙁
USBs nowadays are a dime a dozen basically for 16GB sticks
They can literally be bought in 10 packs for less than $30.
If they don’t give one back nowadays so be it.
Back in the day it was a terrible loss though
I wonder if you applied inflation from the time that idiom was first popularized what the modern price would be.
Isn’t that too risky though? That can be an evidence when argued in the court
If your coworkers are the level of douche bag that they might take you to court, then probably don’t even talk about your favorite show with them
It’s not necessarily deliberate. Your coworkers could be distributing the copy to someone else and police’s gonna find out where it comes from
Me: The internet ;) ;)
Depends on how cool they are
