I lol'd. Not at the kids misfortune, but at what Christmas has become. The saddest thing is, there are kids in the world who would get as excited about getting those clothes as the kid in the first video who did get the 360. I think its disgusting we've turned Christmas into such an event where its sooo heartbreaking to get given some clothes instead of an Xbox...

QFT

TV and other forms of media indoctrinates the young into pre-conditioning of material items. When I look back at what I use to be happy for and what I wasn't, I saw myself as a fool.

It's one thing to give a kid clothes over an XBox and another thing entirely to mock them by giving them an empty XBox box with clothes in it. They could have likely given him any number of things that he would have loved but to throw an empty box with the intention of stirring him is in many ways rather sick on the parents behalf.

Now I believe later on he got the console itself but still, teasing a child like that, likely with the intention of putting it online given they had the camcorder rolling is not right in my books.

Besides, people can say "back in my day I was happy with a shirt or a book" all they like but if you step back you will see its those same people who were happy with so little 20+ years ago that have more or less turned Christmas into the commercial holiday many perceive it to be today. It's not like its the children advertising the products or selling these items to one another, its the adults from yesteryear's.

I would go crazy too if I were his age and exposed to the current-gen technology. Too bad, my parents would never gift me anything remotely like this and I've never ever seen a game console in person.

Just to make things clear his folks eventually got him one later in the day.

These videos along with the Hitler videos are so ****ing annoying. They weren't that funny to begin with never mind being parodied every holiday.

Psychologically speaking from your point of you

When you see so much attention being put on these videos, you deter from the crowd because it seems idiotic to laugh at it. However if you saw those videos without knowing that the majority of people on the net or in public watched these videos and just jabber about it being hilarious you yourself would find these hilarious. This happens to me all the time, when people get into something I use to like I end up not paying attention to it anymore.

That or people are just making the same joke over and over. I don't think its a case of being an individual...more like listening to the same song on repeat one too many times. Eventually the joke gets old.

Exactamondo :yes:

I laughed at the N64 video first time and less and less each time. Never really found any of the parodies funny at all.

First kid I ever saw humping his 360 :laugh:

I remember being pumped up with joy when my parrents bought me my N64 w/ Star Fox.

Games these days don't carry that excitement I use to have.

Never have carried that much excitement, you mean?!! :whistle:

Somebody slap that irritating kid!!

    • Celebrating Windows XP's 25th anniversary this year

      By carols23 · Posted

      If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
