        The good old 2000s when you could host and successfully distribute any virus disguised as something popular by slapping a _full, _HD or .rar/zip (or any combination) at the end of the file name.

        I used to look up lard bread and there was a hit for lard bread_full.rar on the first page.

          I didn’t know what lard bread is, so I looked it up.

          I discovered it was bread with prosciutto baked in. I thought it sounded unappealing.

          Then I thought of “making bacon pancakes” and thought I should open my mind.

          edit: added a missing word.

            So the thing is, English is not my first language and I used the wrong word. I guess it’s more like greasy bread. Just plain pig fat spread on a slice of bread. But what you just described actually sounds awesome.

              Ah, I apologize, I did not intend to mock. Both sound potentially appealing. Thanks for the clarification!

                Oh, there was 0 offense taken, mockery didn’t even cross my mind. I just simply realised I was probably misleading first.

          Oh it’s subscription based, ok. I have a flash drive for that. Helps me erase the OS and put a whole new one in.

              Bro this notification popped up, and for a couple of seconds I didn’t see that it was lemmy, I didn’t remember this convo, I just saw the anti-consumer corpo speak and I almost lost my shit. I was straight up furious and I hit the notification to come in here and verbally crap in your mouth.

              So yeah, you should look into a career with Micockssoft 🤣
