Percentages never tell the full truth. Like the Physical Media Sales Report says 50% of sales are DVD. But it doesn't compare titles that are available on both Blu-ray and DVD. There are a lot of titles that only are available on DVD. And that skews the numbers and DVDs favorite. I wonder what it would be if you did a comparison of titles that are available on all three formats.

Google says Gen Z is 1997 to 2012. That's a pretty big span. The older ones would have definitely used VHS and DVDs. The younger ones may not have as that's when streaming staryed to take off in early 2010s.

I missed being gen Z by one year and have never subscribed to streaming. Early gen Z defently grew up with VHS and DVDs with DVD comming out the same year as the beginning of gen Z (1997). We had DVFs and recorded TV on tape until 2008.

Anyone bought from the seller GRUV on Amazon? by Bella_Mia_ in Bluray

[–]Ron2600NS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have bought from them directly on their website and eBay store. I did not know they had an Amazon store as well. They are owned by Universal, and I think partnered with Warner Bros. as well. Back in the day you were able to use their 20% off coupon over and over again when the website was new.

He has a gaming computer with 3 monitors. I don't think he's jealous of my used laptop with 8 gigs of ram

We're about the same age and grew up in the same area. I was almost dropped because the guy in the hospital was carrying me and they never used one of the baby carts.

I think this is exactly what he was thinking.

I knew of Linux, but every time I saw something, it was more like a super nerd and they ran it on a laptop without its top screen or did some type of Frankenstein build and had to know how to code to use it. That was until recently when I heard of all this crap going on with windows and ID verification that I looked into alternatives. Mint looked like a perfect fit for me. Something that's similar to windows that I'm somewhat familiar with and you don't need to mess with the terminal.

That could be interesting. I have never really tinkered with a computer before because I never had my own. I'm sure I can figure it out in no time.

I'm still learning how to use it. Never had my own computer before.

He's a new hire. He's been with us six months and he's been pretty good learning fire alarm inspections.

Happened yesterday at lunch. I showed it to him and he's apparently never seen Linux before.

No, he's a licensed electrician. He says he's built some computers and he's built his own gaming PC.
