    If I don't skip this it will probably be because it didn't come here. I really require an R rating for me to spend money.

    If there were books anyone was looking for, my bad for not posting about more Humble Book Bundles.
    Here's a Unity Bundle that contains games & software.

    I wish I liked Serious Sam 3 or Bound By Flame, but quickly lost interest due to recharge issues.
    Here They Lie sounds like a game I would play on a handheld so I too could lie.

    If anyone deserved the loss more out of the 2 it was Comcast.
    I'm looking forward to the gloom & doom of no more Rated R Marvel Movies.
    Followed by the doom & gloom of Sony dropping out of the console wars if they are bought by Disney.
    ….
    Only reason to why Disney is the lesser of 2 evils is simply because they aren't an ISP trying to destroy small online businesses.

    What kind of connection was the old CRT monitor? VGA? A vga to hdmi adapter should work. If you have one of those you might have bought the wrong type. There are hdmi to vga convertors that have the same looking connections but will only convert a digital signal to analog when you'd want one that converts from analog to digital/hdmi output.
    Good luck finding CRT monitors nowadays. I haven't seen one for sale in years.

    Check your county or local town/city website for electronic recycling days and fees. Near me it's like $25 to recycle a CRT monitor or old tube TV. I remember back in the day the garbage company would pick up everything. Now it's a fee for everything.

    I don't think my PC has a graphics card. From what I could tell my CRT Monitor wouldn't turn on as the small green light wouldn't turn on and I was hearing a ticking sound whenever I tried to turn it back on after turning it off.
    Also I got the new wire today and it works.

    My only problem was with my HDTV as I had to change it from 16:9 to Screen Fit.

    I really should've read the back of the thing before I bought it as it says HD to VGA. I've bought from this nearby shop before. And usually I would be told no refunds. I felt like I was very specific in that I needed to hook up my PC up to an HDTV. I guess I'll be there tomorow trying to explain they sold me the wrong part.
    *Edit 1*
    I got a refund after them trying to convince me that HD to VGA is the same as VGA to HD. They had to test it before they refunded me and it worked. I didn't see the test as it was in the back. So this all feels very weird because it somehow works for them, but not for me. And if it didn't work for them I wouldn't have gotten refunded.
    *Edit 2*
    I think I found what I was looking for on amazon.com from a 3rd party seller. A 6 foot cable VGA to HDMI Adapter with audio from Foinnex. Plus 2 Year Protection.
    ....
    I would've copy & pasted the URL, but the Steam Machine browser doesn't have that ability.

    I don't think that's the original Voice Acting as they have changed how the stories were in the original.
    They also changed Claire Redfield's original outfit. I'm going miss her Black Boxer Briefs under Red Daisy Dukes Shorts outfit she had.
    And I don't like the whole flashlight & boarding up windows mechanics.

    The controller is comfortable to hold. But the right touch pad makes it hard to aim. It really should've been a control stick.

    So it could basically be a Steam Machine with a better controller?
    Not saying that would be enough for me to buy an Atari VCS, but the Steam Controller is the worst controller I've ever used.
    Also I would really need to see proof that Atari VCS could run modern games or even games that came out for PS3 & Xbox 360.

    I doubt it'll pass through the house or get signed by Trump. But it is surprising that it passed through the senate. We could get surprised again.

    December 14th was coming. (That was just the vote to destroy Net Neutrality)
    Then April 23rd was coming. (But it wasn't officially the death of Net Neutrality.)
    Now June 11th is coming. (I'm guessing this news is happening now as the CRA most likely failed.)
     
    I might just be paranoid. But I'm really expecting a lot of websites to be gone before the 2020 election. Or even before this November.

    The internet services in your area sound like the biggest cash grab of all. There's no reason for internet data caps like that with modern networks imo. Especially considering all websites are the ones actually paying for data transfer limits to the data centers/ hosting services they're signed up with. Data caps sounds like double dipping for extra profits just because they can because there's either no competition or their network literally sucks so much ass that they have severe limitations that should have been resolved years ago. Time Warner / spectrum is a shit company in this area but at least they put some profits over the years into updating their network. Their basic plans now are $50-60 a month with 100 mbps minimum and no data cap.
    I don't know what may or may not happen with no net neutrality anymore but for me I'd rather keep my plan the way it is now which is unlimited everything. If they rolled out changes to make a game plan, streaming, plan, etc. I'd be pissed. I'd rather see everywhere in the US have unlimited plans.
    I am a bit concerned about privacy with net neutrality going away. I have a feeling that all our private information will become an entire economy like health insurance. Facebook and Google have been profiting off our data for years with targeted ads based off our info, now I worry that the ISPs and network backbone providers will start harvesting all our internet usage data and sell it off to any random company with enough money. They could also target high usage websites like Netflix and Amazon prime and throttle their connections unless they pay more money. And then they could double dip that by making us pay for streaming packages with our internet to. It all seems shady as hell to me. Once all this potentially becomes an economy of its own our government will never roll new laws into place to protect our privacy because it'll affect jobs or the entire country's economy as a whole or some bull crap like that.
    I bought a VPN service a couple weeks ago. At least I can do things privately now if I want. Its also fun to turn my VPN on, switch over to a Canada or Britain IP and then Google search news. Its cool to actually see news from Google thinking I'm living in a different country. The ads from websites completely change to since they're not targeted at me anymore either. EU has completely different laws than the US for privacy. Browsing from any EU/ Britain/ Canada ip from my VPN procs most websites into popping up disclaimers and acceptance info for cookies and privacy policies. Browse anything from the US and you get none of that. It really makes me feel like there is no privacy online at all anymore.
