“When I was a kid we were lucky if we only had to wait 9 months to rent a theatrical release. The generation before mine had to hope and pray a favorite of theirs would be re-released or air on one of, like, 7 TV channels. ‘I want it now’ is not a real justification for piracy.”
They would do the same if they weren't so old and crusty.
*I'm probably around the same age as this bastard. At least I'm not as crusty.
Apparently Sopuli/Lemmy/Firefox g-thumb on Linux automatically flips and rotates images using exif data which is stripped when posting to what it thinks is the right side up. How annoying.
