I'm not American and don't live there, but "where are you from" shouldn't be offensive, unless you're native American. Just normalize asking white people where they are from, too.

Oh yes, I'm so sorry. I meant to say "ackchually" (I normally don't use that "y" after "h").

.mp4 isn't codec though, is it? I think it can have various codecs, even h264.

It's actually supposed to be pronounced as "woyák", so it doesn't rhyme with Bojack.

Maybe it has learned from previous occasions. Mine doesn't suggest either option.

Just FYI, the phrase is "per se", not "per say". It's Latin for "by itself".

3000 years is a lot. You can't imagine how profoundly, unbelievably long that is. In just 65 years we went from the Wright brothers' first flight to landing on the moon. And technological progress is exponential. Assuming people don't all kill each other, in a couple hundred years, maybe a thousand, it will likely cost the humanity next to nothing to go pick them up, if they so desire.

I wasn't making it sound bad. I'm just saying how it is. We wouldn't tolerate game mechanics like those nowadays. That's all I'm saying.

It's a possibility, if they really wanna play the game. Nowadays we are so spoiled for choice that we would just either switch to another game or pick up the phone.

You're clearly just trying to pick a fight, but care to point out what I said wrong?

Sure, however you choose to call it, it's not "original hardware".
