Yeah, but you need to consider that Slovakia was part of the kingdom of Hungary (The big one, not the shrunken Hungary we got today) for most of its history, and that today there's way more traffic going through railways, roads, and air
In other words, borders and means of transportation changed, and thus trade routes shifted

If this went by seamail, the package reached a port, and Slovakia is a landlocked country.
Thus, a shipping service/courier would have picked up the package, went through the port's custom, and then sent the package to Slovakia to pass through Slovak customs too
If this was by seamail, of course, I'm guessing that would have been the route
Discard this if it went through airmail

- reply

Wasn't this seamail? If so they actually sent it to Bratislava and didn't notify you that your package was held into a port of a non-landlocked country first
You should have received a mail from a courier service that handled your package when it came into port, and you should have been able to track your package with their own tracking system

They recently managed to re-release Pandora Tomorrow (2003?) on Steam, which was in licensing hell since forever, and Ubisoft being Ubisoft tied it to their own Ubisoft Connect platform as DRM and you need an account with them, while both the very first Splinter Cell title and Chaos Theory are without Ubisoft Connect requirements because they were released on Steam before Ubisoft became current Ubisoft
You should get the very first Splinter Cell title on GOG, then look on moddb for the asset package that allows to create a Pandora Tomorrow install from the baseline Splinter Cell install (They were on the same engine), and finally get Chaos Theory on Steam
As for the games themselves, they will never be as slow as being played at 20 fps on your underpowered 2000s rig with a big CRT that made them extremely dark due to innate high contrast (Which explains why Fisher had that little light rectangle on his back to help the player trace his own character), but still, they're as hardcore stealth as it gets, but you'll probably cringe now at seeing certain agencies being depicted as the good guys in a story. And dynamic lighting without ray tracing, another lost technology from the 2000s

Barging in just now, but none of the two are particularly good as outgoing mails: Tuta/Tutanota gets blocked around somewhat, Protonmail even worse than that.
Most businesses, even those with custom domains for support, have no idea how to whitelist providers, since they offload it entirely on the likes of Google. Sometime they work though, sometimes they just fail with no notification about it, sometimes they just stop working despite having worked previously
I do keep several accounts around just in case, and rotate them if I can't reach some address due to blacklisting
Of course, you shouldn't use outgoing email for anything else than professional work, due to metadata being always unencrypted

I'm more surprised fast food chains haven't done more of an effort getting ReportOfTheWeek on board with them: I mean, he's pretty famous
I would expect someone from upper management from Burgher King asking around where this guy lives and doing some checks of Burgher King locations in the area, just to be sure he doesn't have obvious reasons to blast them. Maybe whip up some even thereafter pretending it's completely unrelated but it's not

Before YouTube clamped down hard on copyright starting about 2012, there were thousands of videos of kids and other amateur musicians doing covers and stuff
And yes, some of them were masked. I remember a guy that went as "Ninjalexi Laiho" that did Children of Bodom covers and was always covered in a way to resemble a ninja, but his long hair flew out and he kinda looked like a masked Laiho
It all went down the drain once music corporations started enforcing that covers that were too good actually were copyright infringement, and automated strikes followed
I mean, you can try, but don't underestimate how stupid copyright enforcement is

I did some reading and apparently those places are called tapas bars, and they basically can also serve food because that's what taverns of oldey times did
Still, all photos of those bars show proper plating, so I dunno what's happening here. The meat may indeed be good since locally it must come pretty cheap, but I don't think that tuna was fished yesterday, it looks straight out of a can.
So, yeah, maybe the meat is good, but they could work on the rest. With those requirements, pretty much anyone could flag himself as a cook

This would be a prime time to both redo the electrical system (Assuming you can find a good electrician, that is), and also run Ethernet cables through the same spaces your electrical cables run (Solutions like these have existed for 15+ years), with custom Ethernet outlets here and there you can run an Ethernet cable to

You have to track down where scene groups gather and see/ask there
It's basically the same thing as asking for a clean steam rip package. You can only find those where scene members gather
Problem is, in your case, there's lots of Japanese/Chinese involved
Speaking of which, part of it may be behind the firewall. There's lots of Chinese groups doing scans/subs, from which English groups translate since Chinese is way more known than Japanese anyway
Edit: usually scanlators leave links to their discord, or other contacts. You may want to start from there

Not very good, honestly.
>Tim Drake the protagonist should be a first year high school kid, that had been lurking for a while already, but only being a basic loser in high school forced him to reach out the anons by actually posting threads
>This imaginary 4gothamchan should have a dedicated board named /sup/ centered around happenings of villains and superheroes. Users are known as suppers, since, like poor people attending a soup kitchen, they just stay there and watch for superheroes or supervillains to feed them content that is relevant to the board, since they got no superpowers they would never be able to properly make happenings like sometimes other boards do (Think the pool's closed things that were done IRL. They would never be able to properly engage with supers without superpowers, they can only watch. They are the most useless IRL board)
>The board has a toxic culture reminiscent of r9k early/mid 2010s. While the robots insulted each others for being pathetic virgins with no social life, suppers insult each other for being no-superpowers normals. Of course, they're mostly just kids that have ended their childhood idolizing of superheroes, and now either feel resentful or helpless as they better understand the world in a warped kind of way.
>Lots of toxic memes about there actually being supervillains and superheroes lurking and laughing at them. Memes about having a "clown power unlocked" (Throwing oneself into a chemical dump like the Joker) or "bat power unlocked" (Killing your own family members to be caught be guilt and became like the Batman). This kind of toxicity would never be shown in a current-day franchise, but it's something the IRL robots could have memed about.
>The story could go anywhere from here, honestly. It would be dark in a way that could only resonate with part of the public, parents would be extremely concerned if they found an IRL Gotham-related franchise playing this way. A loser-to-hero or loser-to-supervillain are both paths followable.
>Regardless, if somehow Tim Drake were eventually grow into being a superhero or supervillain, suppers could find out because he was a namefag with a telling username, or he was actually doxxed once. He'd regardless become a local legend, and "Doing a Tim" would become a new meme kinda like "ascension" is for incels.
You will understand none contents like this can be produced in the current climate, nor producers could ever understand if they hadn't be anons themselves.

I feel I saw most of those, but only because I had developed an habit in the early-mid 2010s to watch/scroll through compilations by anitubers (When copyright enforcement was looser and anitubers could actually exist)
Don't know why they're starting it in 2006 though. It should go way farther, or maybe be compiled per decade if the author is allergic to listing historical anime per year

Plenty had lots of inflammatory content, including lots of what we now call redpill, but before it was something like "escape the friendzone" and things like that.
Once most of their userbase was not anymore teens/college students, it was only a matter of time to begin clumping down to accommodate a different public served by different advertisers
Like I said, it was about 2012-2013, largely completed by end of 2013. Some memery persisted until late 2015 when the larger meme war of 2016 begun and platforms begun a desperate censorship campaign

No joke early Facebook was publishing image board memes (But did plenty of their own) and was already so much better than early reddit, go figure.
Their original memes were fairly edgy, some were straight up porn, and there were already lots of mfs doing early style Internet meme warfare
Of course, it ended about 2012-2013, when it got too commercial, most women moved to instragram to avoid harassment, and boomers finally got their hands on smartphones and colonized the space

The Vista/7 aesthetic is usually called "Frutiger Aero", which can be liked or not, but it was coherent.
What I was saying was that current graphics designers, if attempting to do a new frutiger, will go overboard with transparency and glossiness and turn it into the gloss version of material design.
I'm guessing they're already getting there

2025-06-10 15:09:48 UTC

I don't think current graphic designers could bring anything much different to the table, honestly.
They'll probably slap some compositor-made transparency and a bit of gloss and they'll call it the new frutiger

I don't think they bundled a whole browser in it (License nightmare), nevermind the SSL certificates that are pretty much required.
I think it calls for your browser-set environmental variable and opens your actual browser.
Now, how is it rendering your browser window, though? Window-capture and send, I guess?

The funniest thing is that the origin of the term "dirtbag left" was by the members of the somethingawful forums, whom they used to self-identify.
Apparently, back in the 2000s, they thought this was something cool to go for, as they attempted to rid the Internet of users they deemed undesirable. They were the reddit before the reddit, and a good chunk of 2000s leftist takes came from that forum. It wasn't long before imageboards completely overshadowed them.
Nowadays, their forum is locked behind a paywall. But, when they forget and you can peer a bit inside, it's all takes against Bernie and their own party, and this was but before last november. Can't image how they must be fuming now :awoorev:

There was indeed a brief phase in the 90s and early 2000s when various small-time genuine reviewing websites popped up, mostly made of nerds loving their craft.
