#PS3History
Back in 2011 PlayStation Network(PSN) went down and Sony remained silent.
Last night PSN went down, it is still down 15 hours later, it seems that Sony hasn’t learned from their past mistakes 😬

Thankfully I'm not really impacted by the PSN outage as the only Sony system I use online these days is my PS5, which doesn't get much game time in all honesty.

However it's made me appreciate my other devices more that let me just turn them on, load up a game... And they work? No fuss.

Each time I try and say Happy New Year on social media, I think of the Palestinians in cold and wet tents, suffering a genocide at the hand of israel, being blown to pieces using US/British/German bombs.
May 2025 bring and end to Palestinian suffering and punishment for israel

Slightly updated the site icons.

Less wordy, more iconic!

#ICYMI @superpodnetwork.com ’s awesome Q&A only on #ReCollect64!

A screenshot of PayPal's terms of service. Big wall of legalese text, which I will be pasting in below. You don't need to read it, here's the important part: "The key update to the Privacy Statement explains how we will share information with merchants to personalize your shopping experience and recommend our services to you. Personal information we disclose includes, for example, products, preferences, sizes, and styles we think you’ll like. Information gathered about you after the effective date of our updated Privacy Statement, November 27, 2024, will be shared with participating stores where you shop." Here's the whole paragraph: We are updating our Privacy Statement to explain how, starting early Summer 2025, we will share information to help improve your shopping experience and make it more personalized for you. The key update to the Privacy Statement explains how we will share information with merchants to personalize your shopping experience and recommend our services to you. Personal information we disclose includes, for example, products, preferences, sizes, and styles we think you’ll like. Information gathered about you after the effective date of our updated Privacy Statement, November 27, 2024, will be shared with participating stores where you shop, unless you live in California, North Dakota, or Vermont. For PayPal customers in California, North Dakota, or Vermont, we’ll only share your information with those merchants if you tell us to do so. No matter where you live, you’ll always be able to exercise your right to opt out of this data sharing by updating your preference settings in your account under “Data and Privacy.”

In 2025 (less than 30 days away), PayPal will start selling your transaction history for targeted advertising.

I very highly recommend logging into your account and going to Settings > Data & Privacy > Personalized Shopping.

If you're reading this, turn that off RIGHT NOW before you forget.
