So potentially a life sentence in a mental facility. That's far better than life in a federal prison. Glad the authorities had the sense to not just throw this kid in the slammer.

There's only one example I can think of where this isnt the case. I don't remember the whole story but I saw a YT video about this kid who got arrested for hacking Rockstar games. He ended up getting arrested and while in federal custody in some hotel room, he successfully hacked them again with a fucking amazon fire stick. After that he told the judge that we had no intention of stopping. Being under the age of 18, I don't think he really had any harsh consequences but good for him, that legend.

Edit: so he was 18 during the second hack. And GOT A LIFE FUCKING SENTENCE?!?!?!

Its also free to not play XDefiant. I've been not playing XDefiant since the beta. It's been fun not watching this game turn out to be whatever the fuck it is now.

It wasn't the InfinateSolutions' battery video, I hope. And if you haven't seen it, it's a must watch classic about batteries.

Even Nintendo did it with a Zelda and another time for Metroid. I dont specifically remamber which ones tho. Players would get soft locked out of progression and you could send it in and they'd fix it. That was many moons ago tho. No way they'd put that much effort into anything these days.

Genuinely interested, how would you go about doing that?

Thanks to the electoral elementary, Trump still wins another term in the principals office.

Reminds me of that guy on twitter told Tom Morello that he had no business getting all political and to just stick to making music.

I found a kickass stick 4 years ago in the Smokies the weekend my wife and I got married. It's literally the perfect stick. Straight, smooth, nice thickness, durable as hell. Must be of a rare hardwood variety, I would imagine. I still have that stick in the corner and I see it everyday when I'm sitting at my PC. Have I ever used it for anything? I wouldn't dare. It's too nice of a stick to just use on a whim. Why do I keep it around? Well, if I ever had a problem that required a really nice fuckin stick, I'm covered. Every year or so, my wife says to me, "JPSound, you still have that stick?! Why do you keep that thing around?" I look that woman dead in the eyes and say, "there will come a day, my bride, when the creator of all shall lay before us an obstacle, nay, a challenge that only a mighty stick of such grandeur may aid us in such a lofty trial. And this stick, my dearest, this stick awaits our call to guide us into the sunkissed valley of victory so sweet. Only then shall you see what I see. Know what I know now, that this mear stick, is far more than it seems. Then you will know, I am the mighty protector of this home and family. You will see, my love. You will see." Then she usually just rolls her eyes and says, "whatever... I gotta run to the grocery store. Do you need anything special?" And I respond with a mighty boom, "yeah, that fancy chocolate milk I like, please."
