I seem to remember the Iraq-area wars that the US was involved in going on far longer and less of an oil crisis happening this fast.

That would be because even during those wars and conflicts, we didn't have an orange-painted pedophilic retard with delusions of grandeur causing a weekslong blockage of the major shipping lane through which ~35% of the world's crude oil trade flows.

The closest we've seen recently was when the Ever Given got stuck in the Suez during 2021, and even that only lasted for 6 days. Plus, it wasn't as big a deal because less oil was being used worldwide during pandemic countermeasures.

The closest in the past 100 years is when Treasonous Klanbitch Ronny Reagan betrayed the USA and convinced the Iranian Ayatollah to cut off shipping to hurt Carter in the 1980 election, in trade for guns and other military supplies that the Treasonshit Republicans paid out later during Reagan's terms.

I am OK with IPv4. All my devices support it, the addresses are easy to remember. Everything works.

Though the local v6 addresses can be easy to remember as well, like fd00::0:1, it would be more annoying to remember a public IP as it would be longer.
The fact that my numpad does not have letters and : would make it more annoying to type, but whatever.

Still, IPv4 for me is good enough. There are not enough IPv6-only services that would make me consider adding it to my network and duplicating all the firewall rules. That's for my home network. It goes many times that for the work network, because that would be even more difficult and time-consuming for very little benefit right now.

I see NAT as a feature by the way, I would use it with v6 too.

Cue the Corrupt MafiAA starting another assault on digital preservation. Sigh.

The women he walked in on, who WERE UNDERAGE TEENS AT THE TIME, remember him doing it.

iOS has that marketshare now because countries other than the USA (in the Asian zone and Eurozone) caught Apple doing monopolistic things and acted to stop it early.

Wait. You say Microsoft is doing the same thing they've done a dozen times before, again? I'm shocked, I say. Shocked.

........ well, not that shocked.

Basically the EFF exists to defend pedo rights

You are disturbingly confused and thinking of the (GOP) RetardedKlan Party whose head is a literal 34-time convicted felon, pedophile who admitted in a Howard Stern video to invading locker rooms of underage girls at pageants, and all-around Treasonous Shitrag who wears caked orange makeup to hide his syphilis blemishes.

Anyone who supports HitlerHeiler Leon Skum is already diagnosed as severely retarded.

As someone who uses old hardware, I agree. I have one small PC that I run Linux on. It's a 586, so, in theory I could run even the latest kernel, but in practice I run Debian 8, because Debian 9 does not boot on it (either 128MB RAM is not enough for it or the CPU is missing some feature).
The newer versions would probably run slower anyway.

I have a 486 though, maybe I should try to see which latest Debian version runs on it.

I knew someone pushing this shit a few years ago and claiming it was "therapy." She got arrested for dealing (other) drugs and then fled the country after making FALSE accusations at a number of people...

The same company that banned people for linking to the British Holocaust Museum (HMD.Org.UK) claiming the links were violations of the policy on "dangerous individuals and organizations." Zuckerberg is a pedophilic little-boy-raping sick-trash Nazi.

TP-Link: When you want your home internet to steal your identity and join botnets.

Can we please just admit that MacOS is a phone OS and not designed for games? Stop trying to claim Mac is a games platform, it wasn't in original, it wasn't on PPC, it wasn't even on Intel unless you Bootcamped.

AFAIK, the aspect ratio of Babylon 5 is complicated.
The live action parts were shot at 16:9 with the plans to later release a widescreen version. However, some of the CGI parts (or was it the parts where CGI and live action was combined) were done in 4:3, since it would be possible to re-do them later in widescreen. They lost the files needed for the CGI, so it was not possible to re-do it though.

A 4:3 version crops some of the live action image (not a big deal since it was filmed with the intent of showing it in 4:3 first), a 16:9 version stretches or crops the CGI parts.

Live action parts were shot on film, so it is possible to have a HD version, but the CGI parts were likely done on video.

Probably the "best" version would be one that shits the aspect ration to 16:9 on live action and 4:3 on CGI. I don't know if it would be annoying to watch though.

Your vision is better than that of the vast majority of people.

It depends on the TV size and distance from it. If a TV is small and the viewer sits far away from it, there is no difference between 1080p and 2160p. Get far enough away and there would not even be difference from 576p.

From what I have noticed from my friends (as in - normal people, not the video equivalent of an audiophile), they sit too far from the TV, no matter the TV size. If the TV is small (maybe the person does not have space for it or whatever), then they sit about 2 meters away from it - where it would take good eyes to see the difference between 576p and 1080p. If the TV is bigger, they sit even further away from it.

I have a relatively big TV (150cm diagonal) and sit about 3 meters away from it. When I connect a PC to it, I can just barely make out the standard sized text on it, but my eyes are not that great. People who visit me usually comment that the TV is too big and I sit too close to it.
