- Comment on Southern Water nearly doubles CEO pay to £1.4m despite bonus ban 2 hours ago:
I think you mean BECAUSE of bonus ban.
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 3 days ago:
We’ve been crashing this shit since 2012 and the results have been… interesting so far.
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 3 days ago:
I mean, planck length & planck time are probably the resolution our simulation runs at. And collapsing superposition? Obviously just the “LoD” system only rendering what’s relevant to the users/creators and wasting no resources on unused assets.
- Comment on I wonder if the spice girls still get along or if that "friendship never ends" thing was just a lie. 5 days ago:
Well, his name IS Horner… maybe they dropped an I somewhere.
- Comment on Financially rewarding and you will always have a job 6 days ago:
Not sure if it’s still a thing but I knew a girl from Norway who basically went to college from age 18-30 getting like four different degrees because as long as she remained in higher education, the government would keep paying for her education + living expenses.
Not sure if that was the original intent but it sure does result in a highly educated populace.
- Comment on Financially rewarding and you will always have a job 6 days ago:
I have a lot of respect for the people that do it but I couldn’t. I have two left hands and am fairly skittish when it comes to human excrement.
- Comment on OK now I understand 1 week ago:
Pissing in an ocean of piss. Classic.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Hopefully not a drawn out depression like the 1930s.
Much worse. This time it’s going to be permanent.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
The 1% own even more stock than they own outright money. You could replace “the economy” in every article with “rich people’s yacht money”. The stock market is 100% dissociated from reality and shouldn’t be used as a measure of general wealth by any means.
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 1 week ago:
Not to mention that studios like Larian have proven that it’s entirely possible to make a blockbuster game without teams of 400 heads, changing direction and leadership every few years and laying off the people who made the product in the first place. They really seethed at that one, so many salty comments lol.
- Comment on Xbox Producer Recommends Laid Off Workers Should Use AI To 'Help Reduce The Emotional And Cognitive Load That Comes With Job Loss' 1 week ago:
Imagine if the CEO who laid you off was also your psychologist/therapist who you have to turn to. What in the actual fuck is wrong with these people.
- Comment on Mr Frisky! Mr Frisky Where Are You? 2 weeks ago:
Looking in the right places. I’ve had cats all my life and there’s no way they go to heaven.
- Comment on Chocolate chip is a great cookie, but only if it's melty. If it's crunchy, it's just an average cookie. 2 weeks ago:
I sometimes deliberately leave them to sit in the open for a day or so. Makes them less crunchy.
- Comment on Subnautica's Original Creators Have Been Removed From Unknown Worlds "Effective Immediately", As Krafton Makes Concerning Leadership Changes 2 weeks ago:
Not gamedev but other software, going through the exact same thing (new, external CEO). Guess the axeman cometh for us all eventually.
- Comment on Next-Gen Brain Implants Offer New Hope for Depression: AI and real-time neural feedback could transform treatments 2 weeks ago:
I did, but long ago. Problem is when you’re taking ssri’s/snri’s, especially in large doses, mushrooms lose their effect. Taking psylocibin on these meds doesn’t do anything, you don’t even get visuals anymore, only a mild euphoria at best.
- Comment on Next-Gen Brain Implants Offer New Hope for Depression: AI and real-time neural feedback could transform treatments 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been depressed for three decades and nothing I’ve tried so far has worked, but I’ll be stone cold dead before they put fucking chips in my brain. /oldmanyellsatcloud.jpg
- Comment on Gartner Predicts Over 40% of Agentic AI Projects Will Be Canceled by End of 2027 2 weeks ago:
Low ball, rookie numbers! I say we go for 90%, including the added costs of re-hiring previous staff or training new ones.
- Comment on There's a decent chance that one of the many uncontacted tribes has started to worship airplanes 2 weeks ago:
- Comment on Australian police beat an opposition politician so badly that she might lose an eye -- simply for being at an anti-genocide protest. 2 weeks ago:
It can. We’re living in what our children will call the “good old days” right now.
Survival alone will be brutal next decade. Millions upon millions of climate/war refugees vs the thousands of today.
- Comment on Russian Internet users are unable to access the open Internet 2 weeks ago:
So less cheaters and griefers in online lobbies? Rare Putin W.
- Comment on UK’s largest Jewish group punishes members who broke silence on Gaza genocide 2 weeks ago:
Welp. Learning from history is simply no longer a thing I guess.
- Comment on Might be time to find another job 2 weeks ago:
I work at a place that went from having bbq’s and get togethers to… well, nothing in about five years. Yesterday we got a company wide e-mail to tell us the CEO is GTFO’ing and being replaced by an external hire. I’m not worried at all though. In fact, I’m kinda hoping to be fired for the severance. Fuck this job :D
- Comment on This is nice. Time for the macro dose. 2 weeks ago:
Real shit.

And the enshittification continues unabated.
- Comment on In a First, America Dropped 30,000-Pound Bunker-Busters—But Iran’s Concrete May Be Unbreakable, Scientists Say 3 weeks ago:
I low key assume this means the next strike will be using tactical nukes. This is bad news folks.
- Comment on Elon Musk wants to rewrite "the entire corpus of human knowledge" with Grok 3 weeks ago:
Thinking wikipedia or other unbiased sources will still be available in a decade or so is wishful thinking. Once the digital stranglehold kicks in, it’ll be mandatory sign-in with gov vetted identity provider and your sources will be limited to what that gov allows you to see. MMW.
- Comment on Elon Musk has done more damage to the Tesla name than Thomas Edison could have ever hoped to do. 3 weeks ago:
Yeah because Grok keeps calling out his damn lies lol. Not for very much longer obviously but the gaffes published so far have been very entertaining, if not depressing.
- Comment on Once it's on the Internet, it stays forever, but only for the things you DON'T want. For the things you DO want, it will be wiped off the face of the Earth by tomorrow. 3 weeks ago:
Exactly. Just recently found out a favorite creator of mine has shut down his youtube channel and all their videos spanning over a decade are just gone. Feelsbadman.jpg.
- Comment on How can websites verify unique (IRL) identities? 3 weeks ago:
This will be mandatory before the end of the decade.
- Comment on The Elder God 3 weeks ago:
Coincidence. They just wait long enough until the previous war is out of the people’s minds, or enough young people weren’t even alive when it happened to do it again. And again. And again.
