Agreed
- Comment on ‘Google Is a Monopolist,’ Judge Rules in Landmark Antitrust Case 3 months ago:
If I am looking it up correctly, judge Amit Mehta was appointed by Obama (who had ties with Google), and still ruled google a Monopoly.
I just like stuff like this as it shows a judge can put bias aside in a ruling, supposedly.
- Comment on Valve runs its massive PC gaming ecosystem with only about 350 employees 4 months ago:
I recall in a decades old Texas Univ interview, Gabe said you had to be aggressive in your firing processes.
Is the same video I recall they made him put on a horse head and try to hold up three fingers.
- Comment on Tesla’s Share of U.S. Electric Car Market Falls Below 50% 4 months ago:
I went with a Nissan Leaf. But only because it was the only EV I could have gotten on 2022, as it felt so hard to get them and dealers didn’t seem to keep me updated on availability.
- Comment on BMW Is Giving Up on Heated Seat Subscriptions Because People Hated Them 1 year ago:
I was going to say it wasn’t that people hated them, I was thinking it was BMW users either didn’t want to pay or found a buddy to do it for free.
- Comment on According to Elon Musk’s own math, the company formerly known as Twitter has lost 90% of its value and could be worth just $4 billion 1 year ago:
I have a dumb conspiracy that Elon wants to be US president like any Lex Luthor like person, but since he can’t he is ruining things extreme republicans hate so he can gain favor and make his way up as high as he can to reach religious cult status. 😆
EVs and Twitter down I guess so far.
- Comment on Both two AMAZING space shows from the 90s with wars and politics and good ol' shenanigans 1 year ago:
Sisko be like “I’ll make my own ship and sail across the cosmos like ancient Bajorans”.
Explorers was the silliest yet most wholesome episode.

Useless tidbit: Marge has bunny ears when she gets shocked in that dream level. This is because an idea Matt had was that Marge was going to be a rabbit, hiding the ears in her hair.
- Comment on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 Store to close in July 2024 1 year ago:
I’ll miss my download of Lost Cities and Lode Runner 3D

Practical wise that does seem easier to use the bathroom and fight in combat.

Snap into a bargain!
- Comment on Tesla Identified As Most Recalled Car Brand, Mercedes & Toyota Least 1 year ago:
Sadly I had to wait 10 months, my dealer got a single SV Plus for me
- Comment on Tesla Identified As Most Recalled Car Brand, Mercedes & Toyota Least 1 year ago:
I am still waiting for a day of no frills EVs or just more no frills cars in general. Less crap in the way to repair and whatnot. But all I see passing car lots are bigger vehicles that look like they have so much stuff in them.
We need like a Kirkland brand EV. Unless I am an idiot and people don’t want stuff like that.
- Comment on Microsoft Possibly Teasing Elden Ring Coming to Xbox Game Pass 1 year ago:
Has any info been leaked about how much money Xbox pays companies to have their titles on game pass?
I have trouble figuring out what keywords to search online.
In the past I recall Microsoft paid $10 million for a one year exclusive to GTA 4 DLC, and in that court case it was revealed Epic paid $1.3 million for the Batman games for the free week.
I can only imagine MS pays From Software Monthly, and I can also surmise MS knows how many digital downloads sell so they have leverage in negotiating a price with From Software.
Unless no one cares enough about thos to dig, or the info is public on their shareholder financial statements and I’m too dumb to find it.
