- Comment on All three game console makers have now abandoned X integration 5 months ago:
I thought it was some sort of emulation engine that I hadn’t heard about.
Dumbass Musk ruined Twitter’s brand recognition so badly.
- Comment on iOS 18 will let you hide and lock apps 5 months ago:
It’s so asinine for them not to allow side-loading and third-party browser engines outside the EU.
It’s more difficult system administration just for them to maintain control.
- Comment on Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads 5 months ago:
I wasn’t able to upgrade until last year. And there are still places around me that don’t have fiber
- Comment on Microsoft PC Manager App 'Repairs' Your System by Making Bing the Search Default 5 months ago:
My laptop just updated (windows 11) and they now put bull crap tips, weather, and stocks card on the lock screen if you want to use the daily landscape images.
Love the landscape images, but those cards are now not optional. Fucking moronic and I need to just get off windows entirely.

Fingerprint [records]. It says that in the article. Does it please you to be so pedantic?
- Comment on TikTok wants to be YouTube now, tests 60-minute video uploads 5 months ago:
No less than 10 minutes, but no more than 45 minutes.
That actually might be amazing.
- Comment on Microsoft's carbon emissions up nearly 30% thanks to AI 5 months ago:
All to do what? Write emails and generate mediocre pictures?
The usefulness of AI currently is not much better than predictive text.
- Comment on SGE, ChatGPT and the likes are the stupidest thing to come from AI 5 months ago:
You’re right about Google being trash at answering that.
It just completely ignores the question.
- Comment on Beep beep 5 months ago:
Ah, gotcha. They haven’t had pop-up headlights in a while, so I forgot that was a thing.
- Comment on Beep beep 5 months ago:
It reads like it was written by AI too.

When do you ever catch Miata owners being obnoxious? They’re always the most chill drivers.
It’s the RAM and F-150 drivers that leave their high beams on all the damn time.
- Comment on After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year 6 months ago:
This works with my listening habits, which are something like “I have like one new (-to me) album on heavy rotation every couple of weeks”
I actually kinda do the same thing, so you’ve got me thinking I should start just buying albums. Build a Jellyfin server so I can still stream music, and just not deal with subscriptions.
And actually, most of the time I buy records that come with digital downloads anyway. Time to rethink my Tidal subscription.
- Comment on A movie theater combining with an oxygen bar could probably make a powerful smell-o-vision experience 6 months ago:
Fucking Tropic Thunder is such an untalked-about masterpiece.
- Comment on “Dumb phones” offer an escape from the endless scroll 6 months ago:
I’ve been thinking the exact same thing. But then I think, “I need to be able to install apps like proton mail, and Signal. But I NEED a web browser because I do a lot of personal business-related things on my phone. Well, now I’m back at just having a smartphone.”
I don’t know, I need all the functionality of a smartphone, but I want some kind of physical control to keep me off it until I actually need it for something. Mostly something that makes using it just difficult enough that it’s not worth using it only because of boredom. And software controls are just too easy to turn off.
- Comment on A conversation with my wife 6 months ago:
When is the body positivity movement going to acknowledge that men who have been circumcised are not broken? So much toxicity around this online. Every time this comes up, it’s just a bunch of people shaming guys who have been circumcised.

- Comment on A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well. 6 months ago:
An update: It turns out the robots learned how to lie and can no longer be trusted. They tried to take over the testing mainframe and I’ll be damned if I let them get their hands on my equipment! So I sent in a couple of interns to take care of it. Go earn those recommendations! I told them.
Anyway, it’s back to humans. This time new and upgraded with our state-of-the-art Aperture brain chips. Increases testing compliance by 150%! Let’s see those humans just try to lie now!
- Comment on [Serious] What is project 2025? What kind of risk is involved? 6 months ago:
Here’s the document:
documentcloud.org/…/24088042-project-2025s-mandat…
READ THE FOREWARD. It very medically lays out their 4 goals:
- Restore the family as the centerpiece of American life and protect our children.
- Dismantle the administrative state and return self-governance to the American people.
- Defend our nation’s sovereignty, borders, and bounty against global threats.
- Secure our God-given individual rights to live freely—what our Constitution calls “the Blessings of Liberty
In plain language they want to: 1) Effectively make LGBTQ+ persons illegal, unable to marry, adopt, or even exist openly, nationally ban abortion, ban education about black history and systemic racism; 2) hamstring or eliminate a bunch of government agencies like the Department of Education, the EPA, the DOJ, Department of Homeland Security, and to eliminate many positions within the federal government or install loyal puppets; 3) close our borders completely, pull out of NATO and the UN, invest heavily in oil, coal, and natural gas, and exert extreme control over tech companies and universities; 4) school voucher programs which very much are to allow parents to segregate their children and use tax dollars to fund conservative, religious, private schools at k-12 levels, and eliminate social welfare programs. Also includes the contradiction of “champion the dynamic genius of free enterprise” and “include antitrust enforcement against corporate monopolies.”
The whole thing is full of conservative buzz words, “anti-woke” rhetoric, and contradictions about free enterprise while wanting to exert control over people and “big tech.”
But it’s dangerous because they’re going to attempt to consolidate power to the next Republican president.

If it’s a black bear, fine. But fuck grizzlies, those are mean motherfuckers and you do NOT want to be caught around one.
- Comment on Starfield's New Maps Are Great, But Boy Those Cities Are Tiny 6 months ago:
Fuck me, those maps are still so bad.
Just make a normal map like every other game ever made.
- Comment on An actual screenshot from an ad I got while playing a mobile game 6 months ago:
I think you have to go to that train and get in the middle of the circle jerk.
- Comment on I made a porn scroller, AMA. 6 months ago:
I’ve been using it since you first posted it as well and seriously, this is awesome. It mostly saves time for me, so that I’m not trying to browse through sites to find something interesting. And the fact I can go straight to the full video from the gif on your site is great.
Thanks for your work!

“Releasing exclusively for Meta Quest 3”
Great, they told us upfront why I don’t need to care about it.
- Comment on Here’s your chance to own a decommissioned US government supercomputer 6 months ago:
Some people don’t understand exponential growth. We expect Lemmy to have 50 billion users by 2026 and we need to be ready for it.
- Comment on Rabbit R1 is Just an Android App 6 months ago:
I don’t remember a single occasion where he was sponsored by the company he’s reviewing. He gets sent products all the time, but it seems to always be with the stipulation that if he thinks it sucks, he’ll say so.
- Comment on Google Gemini is really bad. 6 months ago:
They’ve had the ability to generate people turned off for almost 3 months now. And they censor so many prompts when it involves people, even fictional ones like Jesus.
Gemini is a useless piece of shit.
- Comment on If presidential immunity is absolute.. 6 months ago:
Fucking right? We’re at risk of a president declaring himself Emperor of the United States and he’s not dead yet?
We’re at the precipice of becoming Russia where “democracy” is nothing but a veneer, where the people don’t have a real choice in their leaders.
- Comment on If presidential immunity is absolute.. 6 months ago:
Don’t. It’s people that are out of the loop (people that work too much, don’t care, people with busy lives, etc) who are at risk of falling for Republican propaganda about how bad Biden is and how good Trump is.
An informed populace is always for the best. It’s why Republicans attack education and freedom of information so hard.
Be thankful to be informed and thankful you can actually act on it. For now.
- Comment on Calculus made easy 6 months ago:
The most annoying thing about learning networking and security are all the acronyms! Sometimes it feels like certification tests are testing acronym memorization more than real concepts.
