  • Not a veteran, but… During the 90s, while still in primary school, a friend of mine bought a Chip magazine with a CD attached and instructions inside the magazine how to install a mysterious thing called “Linux” from said CD. It was supposed to be something like Windows 95, but new, better and it had a Penguin on it, so we decided to try it.

    We followed magazine’s installation guide to the letter (or at least we thought so) until the installation stuck at error saying KERNEL PANIC!!! and wouldn’t let us finish. We didn’t understand English much back then, but we found the panicking kernel hilarious. Anyway, we figured it’s been enough h4Ck!nG for that day and got back to playing Diablo 1.
















  • Here’s the context from the linked article under that “woke reviewers” sentence:

    And a follow-up:

    “if a reviewer objects to a character because of identity politics, I call that woke…”

    I kind of agree with him. I initially didn’t want to play the game because of all the bugs people were posting on reddit and because of reviews saying the game is average and pointing out some dialogs that were supposed to be bad or cringe.

    Played it later when it came to PS+ and the game was amazing! The bugs had been fixed by then, and the dialogs were actually very good. The supposed bad dialogs from reviews were taken out of context to look bad.
