GT3 was the first game I had on ps2, I miss it. Jak and Daxter, GTA3/VC/SA, Jet Moto 3, all the Crash Bandicoots, Soul Caliber 3, Max Payne, Tony Hawk PS 3… So many excellent games. And backwards compatibility.

Technology@lemmy.world•If Phones Are Killing Pedestrians, Why Is It Only Happening in America?English
2 daysI’ll agree that its a good component to have. I couldn’t say about driving instructors, for me that was about 25 years ago when I was driving a car from the early 90s that had the thinner pillars. I keep my head on a swivel while driving, but just as easily I’ve had a car or pedestrian pop up that I don’t see right off the bat in that blind spot, especially turning at an intersection.

Privacy@lemmy.world•If the FCC Bans Burner Phones, It Could Be a Privacy NightmareEnglish
8 daysIf they were so serious about curbing spam calls, they could just as well mandate that telephony providers figure it out. This is just another attempt to ensure they can track and surveil dissent.
No spam call center is using a burner phone. They’re using SIP trunks/VoIP lines through spoofed phone numbers.





I had McDs on vacation in France not long ago (it was the only thing open in town at that hour) and it honestly was pretty decent. Last time I ate McDs here in the states some years ago I had turbo shits.
