yall look at this shit ad*be is tryna pull now on ppl who have outdated software:
(note for context: i’m all for piracy, but in this case my copy of CS6 was downloaded years ago when they were giving it away to students. i got it totally legally.)
so here is what NOT to do if you’re a loyal fan of adobe who has the cash to shell out for a newer and shittier version of the product you already paid for.
1) DON’T use your search bar to find and open the Run app
2) DON’T type in services.msc
3) DON’T find Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Services and right-click to get a dropdown menu, and don’t select ‘properties’
4) if you happen to click properties, DON’T use the startup type dropdown to locate the option to disable the program. be sure you DON’T click apply to finalize that change.
5) DO NOT do the same thing in order to also disable Adobe Genuine Software Monitor
if you do all of these things, this WILL disable adobe’s ability to monitor the software, and you will be forced to continue using the same older software that you already paid for instead of having to sign up for a newer, shittier version and pay more for it. so if you have lots of cash to spare and are cool with putting it the pockets of racketeering capitalists, definitely don’t do any of these things.
however, you SHOULD reblog this to spread the word, as we certainly want to make sure lots of people know what NOT to do :)
I’M SORRY MA'AM. I KNOW YOU’RE UPSET.
Pretend to be upset.
OP how could you
I hope none of my friends who use Adobe programs find this, follow your detailed instructions, and spread the word. That would be devastating!
Found footage horror movie but instead of the monster attacking the crew it just steals the camera and the rest of the film is the crew chasing the monster to get the camera back
op your mind
I imagine it has like one of those scenes where the character holding the camera is being chased and the screen is all shaking and whatever
When all of a sudden they trip, and it’s a shot of the creature slowly approaching the person, Only for the camera to be hastily picked up again and you hear an off screen “what the fu- give that back!”
I imagine The rest of the movie is just the creature fucking around and filming random stuff, and it actually ends up giving insight to how the creature works. Like it goes back to its hideout and it just has a whole collection of random shit it stole from previous humans
I’ll see your questionable geography and raise you one better. On Life Unexpected, a two-season CW wonder set in Portland, OR (where I grew up), they took a real coastal town and made it into an island, which does not exist. The central plot of an episode involved the main character and her ~*secret boyfriend*~ going to Astoria for the day, and getting stuck overnight because they missed the last ferry. Umm what? Like, I get it - you guys suffer from the same problem as Supernaturalin that you film in Vancouver (AKA the stand-in for anywhere Pacific Northwest USA, and sometimes Santa Barbara, CA?) and have probably never set foot in Oregon. But c'mon - a quick Googling would’ve shown that it’s clearly not an island and is in fact an easy 2-hour drive back to Portland, 100% over land, with zero ferries. This totally killed the show for me from then on.
If they wanted ferries, they should have set the show in Seattle (where I live now). But even then, you gotta be careful because most of the ferries are just shortcuts to places you can also drive to. Again, Google is your friend!
