- Comment on Kids are short-circuiting their school-issued Chromebooks for TikTok clout 2 weeks ago:
It can be an issue with the people starting these challenges while also being an issue with the way tiktok works with sharing these copycat videos on the platforms algorithm.
I don’t think “omg tiktok bad” but in the case of these dumb challenges, it is one of the few things I can see people actually pointing at when saying tiktok is bad, rather than “but china.”
- Comment on Kids are short-circuiting their school-issued Chromebooks for TikTok clout 2 weeks ago:
Yes but without tik tok this is a kid or two being stupid and charged a couple hundred at one school. I think we had 3 kids today at school destroy their laptops.
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 3 weeks ago:
Wish every MMO to ever have flying mounts would sue the fuck out of Nintendo over this, as Nintendo claiming they invented that shit is fucked up.
- Comment on This game has 100 endings, and it's pushing the creators to the brink of bankruptcy | PC Gamer 3 weeks ago:
I mean… I can’t imagine it being that much more expensive than Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous? Idk if this is a management issue or a funding issue or what. But it sounds cool so I mean I’ll maybe check it out at least
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 3 weeks ago:
Honestly I would be happy if they basically made it into a Tales Of game as that’s already got dual/triple techs basically, it’s got overworld vs regular maps. It is very close to what a more modern Chrono Trigger would be. I would rather keep the original battle system but I wouldn’t be too mad. They could add all the little party talking cutscene things like in those to add more stuff without having to go crazy on the story.
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 3 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s not the 3D I have issue with lol. Please don’t fuck up the story and make this another fucking kingdom hearts.

I’d much rather they don’t FF7 it.

Listen man I would eat fried broccoli like wings too if people would serve it. Fried broccoli is good as fuck.
- Comment on Downtime - Apologies and what went wrong 1 month ago:
Hey you’ve done a ton for all of us and I can’t thank you enough for the work and dedication. Don’t be too hard on yourself, your child and well being are both important, it’s fine. I’d rather some downtime than losing you as admin. Pretty sure most on the sever would agree.
- Comment on Switch 2 GameCube controller will only be offered to those who pre-order the console 1 month ago:
I mean, there’s plenty of reasons to not like Nintendo, but this whole thing is because the GameCube coming to their Online subscription. So I mean… it makes sense.
- Comment on YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy 1 month ago:
“you’re not a leftist unless you have daddies money to support you wasting 100 hours on a 20m video.” Certainly is… a take. But anyways, I’m not even talking about being leftist or not or whatever. I just mean, people. Period. It’s not selfish to want to get paid for making something. People need money to live.
Are there content creators who fucking suck? Yes. But there’s also ones that don’t. They’re allowed to make money.
- Comment on YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy 1 month ago:
I mean, sure but we are past that. No large YouTuber will give up getting paid, and go to a system with a much smaller user base so even stuff like affiliate links and sponsorships are worth less. Basically double lose money just to join peertube. Especially since most large YouTubers have a team of people who they pay, so they cannot afford for their employees sake to take such a large loss just to support peertube.
More likely this leads to Vimeo, or like twitch TikTok or something else being able to support a normal video platform than it leads to people using peertube.

I mean cooking was my interest for the other. Doesn’t need to be cooking. Kinda figured this was probably just fine and not particularly good or bad. Now that solo leveling and Zenshu are over I was looking at something else to fill the gap.

This show any good? The visual makes it look like a bad furry harem anime so like I did not bother, but I enjoyed campfire cooking. Probably mostly as a food show tho lol.
- Comment on Tech jobs are now white collar trades that need apprentices 2 months ago:
That’s the biggest problem with learning tech from a college: developing, vetting, publishing, and adopting curriculum all take a good chunk of time. More time than it takes for new tech to arise.
It’s not hard to see going to trainings/expos/etc. on new/current/upcoming tech while working at a business is going to be a lot more useful than learning 5-20 year old tech in college.
- Comment on Tech jobs are now white collar trades that need apprentices 2 months ago:
What you mean with things that advance continually but also every business uses a different solution you can’t expect someone who have a perfect understanding of 6976 different possible solutions used coming out of college? What are we even teaching these kids if not every possible current and legacy software of any possible IT application and the differences between each version of each. Geez.
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 3 months ago:
Thanks for the recommendation!
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 3 months ago:
Their tuta email already is post quantum so it’s not that they can’t do the security part. Idk honestly, it’s probably just the logistics of getting a lot more servers if they’re trying to make a secure cloud. I just know they posted they’ll be developing that in the future 2 years ago, now would be a great time for it to release as an alternative.
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 3 months ago:
1gb or 5gb for $5 a month is kinda rough tho, as a heads up to anyone looking, it is there more as a means to encrypted collaboration, not large storage and sharing of files.
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 3 months ago:
Thanks. See Tuta mention 2 years ago they’re making a drive alternative but… that’s still not a thing. Kinda sad would definitely like that.
- Comment on Google Calendar removes Pride Month and Black History Month 3 months ago:
Tuta is supposed to be developing one that’s using their post-quantum encryption but it’s been 2 years so, womp.
- Comment on Palworld developer Pocketpair launches Pocketpair Publishing 4 months ago:
Hopefully this goes well. Know they said they literally have more money than they know what to do with, this seems a good way to be able to use that.

Yeah and a lot are moving to heat pumps if they don’t already use them.

There’s a list of models that have them.
- Comment on Brazil shuts BYD factory site over 'slavery' conditions 5 months ago:
Right but it reads very “omg communism Bad cuz it leads to… affordable electric vehicles… please ignore every other country that produces cars also having subsidies.” The US changed its subsidies to only US built EVs and then complains that the Chinese government is making EVs affordable.
- Comment on This feels wrong. I love it. 6 months ago:
Yes. Also if you think of i as a 90° rotation (with a length of the scalar coefficient infront of i, in this case 1) . Thus one rotates you outwards away from the 2D plane, and two of those gets you back to the 2D plane, just going the other direction.
