- Comment on Unreal Tournament 2004 20 Years Later: An LGR Retrospective 4 weeks ago:
Oh shit this isn’t 2003 but a third game? I was wondering why I didn’t remember any vehicles.
I just played ‘99 as that’s all my PC could run.
- Comment on Australia will never elect a Donald Trump – and it’s due to one national trait[: our culture of not getting too big for your boots] 1 month ago:
He was a shit heap that ruined this country by introducing neoliberalism to our shores. He is directly responsible for the sad state of social affairs today.

- Comment on Lemmy's Image Problem 2 months ago:
It is, which is why you have the RIGHT not to use a public space and push your information out to millions of people. You explicitly agreed to it the second you started doing it.
And if it didn’t? If it’s just a simple piece of software made by two people? Should they drop everything to cater to European demands?
Europe invaded the world, then turns around and tells the world to respect its self imposed rule it enforces on others. We can’t even host our own space on the internet without you invading and threatening us to operate your way. The only safety we apparently have is in our small size means we might escape notice.
It’s utter arrogance.
- Comment on Lemmy's Image Problem 2 months ago:
Eh i still dont think itd hold up.
But more reason to hate European arrogance. Imagine if i could go to say your blog, comment my name and address, and sue you for not going into your database and scrubbing it all. Just another way to benefit big companies at the expense of individuals who dont have the tech skills to comply but want to run their own personal sites.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 gets its first rebalance patch 2 months ago:
Im fine with it, it means the game is more balanced overall and other builds become equally viable. At the end of the day it gives more choices for players.
- Comment on Lemmy's Image Problem 2 months ago:
Actually it is :)
- Comment on Lemmy's Image Problem 2 months ago:
If it’s an instance open to anyone, it’s up to Europeans to not participate if they don’t want to.
- Comment on Lemmy's Image Problem 2 months ago:
If an entity isn’t in Europe it shouldn’t be a problem at all.
- Comment on Weird idea continues connecting fediverse and email 2 months ago:
But if you can keep spamming our (heh) a new site for like 99c a domain name, you could do this a lot despite getting banned.
The alternative is something like FediSeer where you can get sites guaranteed by others and block anything not given the all-clear, but that really harms the ability for new sites to appear.
- Comment on Matildas captain Sam Kerr charged over alleged racially aggravated harassment of police officer 2 months ago:
Why would Paki be racist here?
It’s like how in America ‘Jap’ is racist, whereas here ‘Nip’ is racist. Both are short hands for the country name Japan/Nihon(Nippon).
Or the British turning Ning-Nong/Nig-Nog into their version of the n word because some politician used it as such in the 60s or something, whereas here we shortened it to nong and it’s kept its original meaning of a foolish person.
It’s the cultural history behind the words that make them racist and just because we speak dialects of English doesn’t mean our words have followed the same trajectories.

- Comment on Is anyone else seeing more insects? 2 months ago:
Oh everywhere I look I keep finding tiny white specks that are little baby spiders dangling down. I keep moving them closer to outside as I doubt there’s much to eat indoors.
- Comment on Is anyone else seeing more insects? 2 months ago:
Ooh haven’t seen any of them yet, but loads of those pale yellow butterflies are fluttering about.

- Comment on Expensive school uniforms don't make kids better at maths, so why are schools so focused on them? 2 months ago:
Mine was grey shorts and a blue polo shirt with a school logo that cost $90. If you wanted to be warm in winter it was like $70 for a jumper. There was only one shop that sold it in the whole town.
