- Comment on 2025 trailer be wild 2 weeks ago:
I still think your distinction is important. They are both tragedies of course, but it’s important to know and understand the cause.
- Comment on I never realized this 2 weeks ago:
People online do not understand jokes. I refuse to believe anyone in real life would be this dense.
In real life people would see this lol and move on, on the internet they write dissertations about some BS to virtue signal to other strangers how enlightened they are… 🙄

- Comment on 'My personal failure was being stumped': Gabe Newell says finishing Half-Life 2: Episode 3 just to conclude the story would've been 'copping out of [Valve's] obligation to gamers' 2 months ago:
Yea that’s also good. I do that with chess 😂
- Comment on 'My personal failure was being stumped': Gabe Newell says finishing Half-Life 2: Episode 3 just to conclude the story would've been 'copping out of [Valve's] obligation to gamers' 2 months ago:
I’ll just say as an aging gamer, I simply do not have time to grind or replay things. I could do that stuff in highschool, but not anymore.
Grinding especially is a no-go for me. 100% achievements? No chance in hell that’s happening.
Life moves too fast and there’s too much entertainment. Devs that think people have time to sit there and enjoy some obscure shit they hid, will be disappointed.

It’s so easy! When you get in a crash are panicking and disoriented, who needs a simple quick lever that’s there at all times??? Simply follow these complicated 3 steps to extract yourself from the burning vehicle!

- Comment on Amazon will “ramp up” Prime Video ads in 2025 3 months ago:
I canceled prime as soon as they introduced ads into prime video. You should do the same.
You’ll be less tempted to buy shit from them as an added benefit!
- Comment on YSK: You don't own your Kindle e-books. 3 months ago:
Doesn’t matter. All my books are epub. If kobo starts eating dick, I go somewhere else.
- Comment on YSK: You don't own your Kindle e-books. 3 months ago:
Kobo and epub only. Anything else, you don’t own and you shouldn’t pay for it.
- Comment on [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday 3 months ago:
I don’t know about recession, but I know I’ve hit a personal inflection point with prices where I’m just sick of the bullshit and only buy if absolutely necessary, or on sale.
Everyone is so fucking greedy, everyone wants just 5 more dollars bro to the point where the consumerism has been driven out of me.
I actually have money to buy shit, I just don’t want to anymore because nothing seems to correspond to its value anymore.
A new car? 35 k for a fucking base kia, gtfo out with this shit.
New phone? 1.2k for the same screen bullshit as the last 5 years.
Same with this PS5, they are pricing this shit like it’s lifesaving medicine, when in reality it’s just shit no-one really needs
- Comment on LG TVs start showing ads on screensavers 3 months ago:
Paid products should have ZERO ads whether relevant or not. I cancelled Amazon prime the minute they added ads into videos. Fuck that shit.
As a consequence my Amazon shopping has taken a nose dive. I used to buy shit constantly because I had free shipping now I have to really really REALLY need something and even then I’ll wait till I need at least 35$ worth to still get free shipping.
If more people stood up to enshitification we’d be much better off as consumers.

I know very little about physics and I’m pretty sure you could cut cucumbers with a knife until the end of time and you’ll never trigger a nuclear explosion.
- Comment on Is martial arts really that useful? 3 months ago:
Fighting seems cool in movies.
In real life, it’s police, lawyers and prison.
There are few stupider life choices one could make other than fighting in public.
- Comment on Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election? 4 months ago:
Then denying any abortion.
- Comment on Words truly matter 4 months ago:
Regular economic thinking doesn’t work on the scale of nations. Just like a family having debt is not the same thing as a country having debt.
Pretty much everyone in the world has no full idea how an economy works and how to best stimulate it. It’s like a trillion moving parts and smart asses always go “yea this pin over here? That’s the one that’s the problem / solution”
Pretty much no-one knows. We have ideas what’s better / worse but anyone who tells you they’ve got it figured out, is lying.
- Comment on Words truly matter 4 months ago:
I’m also open to the idea of doing research if sound waves stimulating something, somehow. At least there’s something to look at. But writing on a jar? That’s just nonsense.

Don’t Tesla do the same bullshit? If you paid for some feature then sell the car, the new owner has to pay for it again?
This shit should be illegal.

Is it? Or is it a issue for twitter people? I’ve worked with many poc devs and this nonsense was a non issue.
- Comment on YouTube is Losing The War Against Adblockers 4 months ago:
Premium doesn’t have downvote count and sponsor skip.
The pirated version of youtube is better than the paid one.
Google should spend time improving their service instead of being assholes.

Any time spent on nonsense like this is valuable time lost on real issues.
- Comment on Starbucks' new CEO will supercommute 1,000 miles from California to Seattle office instead of relocating 4 months ago:
Taxes need to scale with income. Your plan will hurt regular people that have to fly to see family.
Fuckers like this CEO make too much money and they need to be taxed into oblivion.
