i know i've had several people tell me they wanted to be on sa and were willing to spend the $10 but then they saw it was ancient vbulletin and were like "lol no i only use the finest bespoke forum softwares"

hard to say, really. the mobile apps are hacks that scrape the data and translate it into a semi-usable format. xenforo (assuming lowtax goes with that) already does responsive design, so an app isn't really necessary, but there are apps for it anyway

but it's p lol that there's a bunch of devs who have spent probably hundreds of hours on dead gay apps that will be completely useless in the near future

i got myself banned from a lovely tuner car forum by making my sig as long as i could with fake mods and by signing my posts with the name of some idiot who insisted on signing every post

i understand it, it's just terrible and not really conducive to open discussions

still better than old cgi message boards where each response was a whole page you had to load on your 56k modem and god forbid someone not put an (nt) at the end of their no text response

setting up an office for an internet forum seems like the sort of thing you only do for quality of life reasons. like, it's good and healthy to leave your home from time to time, and having an actual office facilitates that.

we're talking 'strip mall bay on highway Y in cousin-fucker missouri' rent not 'class A office space in SoMa' rent. whole hundreds of american dollars.

oh, i'm well aware, i'm just saying that's about the only reason he'd need an office outside his home at all. i *guess* it's probably easier to file it as a business expense if it's a separate office than having a home office, but that's what accountants are for.

i wonder if there's a radium of accountants out there

i've known more than a couple of people who were very fixated on putting their run-out-of-a-basement or run-out-of-my-cellphone business into an actual physical place because that is what business looks like.

this is coming perilously close to caring what someone did with my ten dollars from 2004.

if you had put those $10 into a low-risk savings bond you would have like $13 today!

michael che's latest special covered a lot of the sort of stuff dave used to cover and was pretty good though. louis ck's new special was pretty good too, though i know he's one of those people goons love to hate now that hes huge.
i was at the taping for that (well, maybe...there was two nights and i'm not sure if they use one night's full set or cut bits from both but whatever) and it was good! except that i'll never, ever go back to dar for any sort of show. what a horrible, horrible venue.

i dont understand how people say gbs is bad or good. there's photoshop threads in there now so maybe im looking at the wrong gbs. im not going to click on it because the thread title is probably better than the thread but i 've thought about "Pro Bathroom Life Hack - Have 2 Brands of Toilet Paper Ready To Go" more than once this week. and there's a juicero thread? not sure why yospos is complaining

have you considered going there and not coming back?
