No, I always pulled out.
- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 3 days ago:
Oh no an echo chamber of people that know things or care about privacy. Do you really think I should go read 4chan or youtube comments to broaden my horizon?
- Comment on New gaming website "This Week in Video Games" launched by Skill Up 2 weeks ago:
I also use UBO and I scrolled down a bit and got a pop up saying the content is for donators only so I closed the tab.

I enabled javascript on this website just for it to tell me to go away lmao
- Comment on A Little-Known Microsoft Program Could Expose the US Defense Department to Chinese Hackers 2 weeks ago:
Windows isn’t little-known.
- Comment on What are you doing when you call someone, don't leave a voicemail or text, they call you back right away but you don't answer? 2 weeks ago:
Calling someone else.
- Comment on Registered Sex Offender who "before he was eighteen, committed 'thousands of assaults'" Speaking at Debian Conference This Week 2 weeks ago:
Should have lead with the fact that he’s a GNOME developer, that’s way more gross.
- Comment on What happened to the creator of Gunman Chronicles, Valve's forgotten FPS? 'My relationship with Gabe didn't really go that great' 3 weeks ago:
I watched some videos of it and it looked really dated and I lost interest haha. I bet having nostalgia for this is probably required.
- Comment on What happened to the creator of Gunman Chronicles, Valve's forgotten FPS? 'My relationship with Gabe didn't really go that great' 3 weeks ago:
Good article, I just wish it would say why the game still isn’t available. I never played this game but went down a little rabbit hole looking for it and ET: Quake Wars and it’s insane the hoops you have to jump through to play these games that used to sell. I still hope to jump through those hoops one day and try it out.
- Comment on NVIDIA is full of shit 4 weeks ago:
Don’t you mean NVidia’s goal isn’t selling cards for gamers?
- Comment on Why there are a lot of people migrating from Windows to Linux these days? 4 weeks ago:
The short version is 2 reasons:
- Microsoft requires Windows 11 computers to have special new hardware that not all computers have. Security updates for Windows 10 ends in 3 months. Many people are faced with a choice of buying a new computer, or installing Linux on their current one to save money. Others realize how much Windows 11 sucks shit and switch because Linux is better.
- Gaming on Linux has gotten a lot better recently. For many people, this was the main thing holding them back. Software support in general is better than ever.

If anyone be down on scruvy I’ll keel haul 'em

wtf I didn’t know Jubert and Prunty were on this joint!
- Comment on If nudity was more widely accepted, tattoos would be more popular. 4 weeks ago:
What kind of plant/flower tattoo(s) do you have?
- Comment on If nudity was more widely accepted, tattoos would be more popular. 4 weeks ago:
Most tattoos just look bad. They stopped being cool a long time ago, old women and conservatives get them now. Most of the time when I see them I think “wow you had disposable income in your early 20s, that’s so cool”.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve noticed this too. I’ve given up on it and instruct others to look for programs in the start menu alphabetically instead of searching because even that is bad. Same with Outlook searches, I instruct people to use webmail because the searching works there.
- Comment on A Bubble Bobble roguelike? Bubble Bobble Sugar Dungeons announced for PS5, Switch, and PC 5 weeks ago:
Oh man this looks like the original NES Bubble Bobble which I loved! I even hear the same theme song! I hope this will be good because I can’t resist buying it!
- Comment on New Nuclear Throne beta build adds 60/120FPS support and quality of life features 5 weeks ago:
Holy shit I just reinstalled, the new beta is great! For Linux players, make sure you force proton compatibility or else it’ll run the native Linux build which is not the beta. This beta has high FPS and properly locks the mouse into the window!
- Comment on do American drug companies come up with their drug's name, or jingle first 5 weeks ago:
I’ve always heard that there are people or companies who do nothing but trademark fancy-sounding product names and then sell them to car and drug manufacturers. I read it on the internet so it must be true.
- Comment on Your TV Is Spying On You 5 weeks ago:
2 1920x1080 LG ones probably over 10 years ago. If smart TVs can’t get online they can’t spy on you.
- Comment on Your TV Is Spying On You 5 weeks ago:
My TV is not a smart TV, it’s not spying on me.

- Comment on Why is Jordan Peterson both a Christian and not a Christian? 1 month ago:
The funny thing is that these are the people that say college is a waste of time. Could you imagine if you or your kids were a student of this guy? I’d sue to get my tuition and lost time back.
- Comment on Why is Jordan Peterson both a Christian and not a Christian? 1 month ago:
He’ll never answer any question because it’s an easy way to avoid being pinned down on any position, which makes him immune to all criticism (in his eyes).
- Comment on If you're having difficulty figuring out how to pronounce "data," say database. 1 month ago:
Bongers will say “dodderbase” unironically though.
- Comment on Why don't people like Melon Tusk get tired of the shit they gave you pull through literally every day ? I mean doesn't the guilt of bad decisions pull them down enough like the rest of us ? 1 month ago:
You know he does ketamine, right? The drug that makes you feel like you’re not yourself but someone else instead?
- Comment on I look forward to the day AI becomes sentient and takes over. It can't be dumber than the people currently in charge. If it starts destroying everything I'm comforted by the fact we dont share genes. 2 months ago:
Check out the book/audiobook Arc of A Scythe, it’s about this.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 2 months ago:
I’m avoiding it because it just doesn’t look that fun. I played the last 2 new dooms and they were good, for console shooters. More PC gamers should have higher standards than this. I don’t want a dumb story about medieval times, collecting dolls, linear maps, cyberdragon mounts, running from arena to arena and then starting repetitive wave fights. Just make a good shooter please!
