- Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons? 3 days ago:
Yeah I mean I have family who’ve worked at them before, I get it but I can’t support something I feel causes so much harm
- Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons? 3 days ago:
Community center and library sure, I wouldn’t really consider the rest a third space.
- Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons? 3 days ago:
I should tbh

I wish we could have third places that don’t involve fucking up your body.

I like shield hero but anyone describing it as peak has shit taste.
- Comment on another TUI 5 days ago:
Everyone getting free mental health care sounds good until you get the government classifying homosexuality or leftist thought as insane again and now we have yet another excuse to put marginalized people in camps.

If your yacht starts having trouble you should take that as a sign that it’s time to buy another yacht
- Comment on Help imaging a IDE drive 1 week ago:
Could also try just a flash drive, I imagine whatever drive in there is pretty small. What ide adapter do you have anyways
- Comment on Help imaging a IDE drive 1 week ago:
Maybe try and boot something like clonezilla to the laptop you took it from instead of messing with shoddy adapters?
- Comment on Help imaging a IDE drive 1 week ago:
Based on this single 2.5” drives don’t use a jumper.
- Comment on Agenda 2030 is complete shit. 1 week ago:
What is agenda 2030? I don’t really know what this is trying to say other than it’s cramped or something

Upload a picture of one?
- Comment on Nintendon't 1 week ago:
Because it isn’t part of any spec I’m aware of and usually one usb-c port is sufficient for most purposes? Certainly any hdd would never be able to saturate a single usb-c port running at at least base 3.0 speed.
- Comment on Nintendon't 1 week ago:
Is it actually that plug or is it just micro-usb B 3.0, because I’ve never seen a dual c port like that
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 week ago:
I’m not arguing for that some people, this sounds like a good thing. I’m just imagining said older-relative types asking something like “check my emails” and the AI tries to open their unconfigured outlook lite or whatever and says “I’m having trouble doing that”. I’m sure if it works they’d be all over it, I just don’t believe it will.
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 week ago:
Sure, if they could actually deliver on the hype they’re eating out of their own ass that would be one thing, I just think they are fundamentally misrepresenting the capabilities of our current AI technology and barely able to deliver an operating system that works without trying to retrofit the entire thing for their bloated chatbots. Unless there’s a huge breakthrough in AI research that allows actual reasoning AND microsoft manages to actually become competent I don’t see how the end of this route is anything but a steaming turd. My money is on the bubble bursting and Microsoft “refocusing on core competencies” before getting distracted again by the next bad idea.
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 week ago:
I can’t imagine people would think this is a good idea past the point that they actually have to use this to get anything done, the best would be huffing copium thinking that the part where it gets good is right around the corner

- Comment on soda 2 weeks ago:
Yeah we Americans are a condemnable lot but I don’t think “kid exploits loophole to buy comical amount of soda” is really an example of that, he’s just a kid doing a bit. If this was a public service the solution would be analogous to saying “you have to be able to hold the container in one hand” or something. There’s always going to be people pushing the rules but they’re usually the exception not the rule.

Pretty sure the Darwin award is for idiots who die doing something stupid, not just idiots in general
- Comment on A robot programmed to act like a 7-year-old girl works to combat fear and loneliness in hospitals 5 weeks ago:
Developing the robots is mostly up front costs (between paying someone to “code” the thing and then buying the units) vs paying however many employees forever which is why I say it’s more expensive.
If they could make an actual genai I think it could help with loneliness but we won’t be there anytime soon, if ever, the way they keep following a strategy of scaling and optimizing a speech center.
- Comment on A robot programmed to act like a 7-year-old girl works to combat fear and loneliness in hospitals 5 weeks ago:
I mean it’s definitely more expensive to pay someone for their time assuming you’d presumably have an army of these to replace with people. But it’d also be am actual solution instead of whatever fresh hell this is

Every time you finally start to fall asleep and snore a little too loudly: “Sorry, I didn’t catch that.”

- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 5 weeks ago:
I guess if you only posted and never read the comments/otherwise consumed you’d still be safe. Just screaming into the void
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 5 weeks ago:
Maybe it’s a whale thing, most people don’t give a shit but the people who do have to buy all of them to sate their neurosis
- Comment on xkcd #3141: Mantle Model 1 month ago:
It’s implying that every time we don’t know why there’s land somewhere we don’t expect geologists are just like “uhhhh mantle plume”
