You legend.
- Comment on How do you get over a really good manga or webcomic you've read that you want to read more of but you've caught up with all the current updates? 1 week ago:
The post was “How do I…” not “Come judge and insult me”. Would’ve cost you nothing to move on to the next post without gracing us with your amazing display of tough love.
- Comment on Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds? 2 weeks ago:
Sure, but you unfortunately can’t just toss out millions of years of evolutionary programming just because it’s no longer convenient. Hence, extinction is a thing.
- Comment on Why is the human body so incredibly bad at responding to colds? 2 weeks ago:
That “weird behavior” of close, social cooperation is why we’re the apex predators of this planet, for better or worse.
- Comment on If men had babies instead of women? Men would probably just all get C sections because everyone knows people have to keep being born. 2 weeks ago:
Again…. why? I don’t particularly like our current trajectory. Why further it?
- Comment on If men had babies instead of women? Men would probably just all get C sections because everyone knows people have to keep being born. 2 weeks ago:
“people have to keep being born.”
Why?

False premise at the end.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 2 weeks ago:
What is it, September? Let’s see, last one was…. February.
I retired in January. lol
- Comment on Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been hosting my own email servers for 20 years without issue. But email systems were a huge part of my IT career so it was easy.
It works great if you have static IPs and know what you’re doing in terms of following best practices. If you’re missing those two things you’re going to have a bad time.
If you have the statics and want to learn, I’d recommend purchasing a test domain and getting the kinks worked out before you move a domain you care about to your own system.
- Comment on People are utterly insane 2 weeks ago:
No no, I mean why did you think it was interesting?
- Comment on People are utterly insane 2 weeks ago:
Why did you think this was worth sharing?
- Comment on The planet still belongs to the dinosaurs. 4 weeks ago:
They didn’t have HVAC though?
- Comment on What goes here? 4 weeks ago:
Two wives?
- Comment on The excellent survivor-like Halls of Torment is getting a big DLC and free update 4 weeks ago:
I put a ton of hours into this game a year ago. It really is a top notch game of this type. It was fun trying all the combos for achievement hunting.
- Comment on ICE Targets App Delivery Drivers — and the Tech Giants They Work for Stay Silent 5 weeks ago:
Are we pretending that the Tech Giants They Work For actually gave a flying fuck about their welfare in the first place?
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Ok but hear me out. Putin and Trump first…. Then steel cage poop match vs Net for the survivor.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
That sounds very abusive.
Can we do Putin and Trump instead?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Nah I’m good.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
Certainly a valid concern, but it’s true with any software. I think enough people (techies especially) are using LibreWolf that a lack of updates would be visible quickly.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
Update frequency/latency hasn’t been an issue in the 2 years I’ve been using it.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
Yes. I consider it better because it’s preconfigured for privacy, includes UBlock Origin by default, and rips Mozilla’s telemetry out. So you never have to worry about them sneaking something new in a later update.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
This is caused by not allowing the website to access your html canvas data. You can fix this in the address bar by clicking the icon on the left of the URL to grant permissions.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
Or even better, Librewolf.
- Comment on AOL will end dial-up internet service in September, 34 years after it's debut — AOL Shield Browser and AOL Dialer software will be shuttered on the same day 1 month ago:
After it is debut?
- Comment on Couldn't big-tech shut out non-monopoly laws by saying that it's meant to be like that on "their" product? 1 month ago:
The really short answer is Apple doesn’t have a military to enforce their will on hostile governments.
Yet.
- Comment on Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet? 1 month ago:
Shit out of luck…. unless you run your own router and know how outbound firewall rules work. Granted the general public does not do either of those, but this is Lemmy.
- Comment on NSFW on Lemmy 1 month ago:
I haven’t noticed that so I probably blocked them long ago. You have to do some maintenance on the feed but these things do not pop up constantly.
- Comment on Microsoft CFO calls for 'intensity' in an internal memo, after blowout earnings 1 month ago:
Take note. It’s never enough, no matter how much you give.
- Comment on 50 percent off and buy 1 get 1 free are the same deal. 1 month ago:
Objectively wrong.
- Comment on Recommendations for games to play on a treadmill (i.e. not too intense) 1 month ago:
I have played a few hundred hours of XCOM 2 on my treadmill. But I’ll play anything turn based that I can use a controller with. Steam controller takes care of the ones that need a mouse.
