Just talk absolute shit, like I do.

Genuinely forgot this game existed. I was over it before COVID lockdowns.

You know he can’t wait to get home and try that shit out.
So often,
“Pssh. As I thought.”
Sometimes,
“Oh, wow.”

🤦
Fuck’s sake.
Let me get the black mirror so we can have more of this shit .
- Comment on Better check the closet, too 1 week ago:
There was an old Canadian show called Reaper or something. Funny scene where an employee spends their 15 min break watching her boss losing it as he paces around his car in the distance.
“What’s his problem?”
“I put a note on his windshield saying ‘Sorry I hit you car’ and I’ve just been watching.”
- Comment on Why people say they have a "boy cat" or a "girl cat" but when the cat grows up, they don't call is a "man cat" or "woman cat"? 1 week ago:
I dunno. I view my dogs as companions. Yeah, they need me to look after.them like they’re children, but I need them to take care of me in the wilderness, protect the house, cheer me up, entertain guests, tow me on the longboard.
There’s no association with them and a human child for me. If anything dog ownership has shifted my mentality into the symbiotic relationship of a pack. I think being stuck thinking of them as children would make for some very miserable times and bad behaviour from both the owner and the dog.

I’m just gonna keep imagining it’s a clan of Timberborn beavers that are born on the ziplines.

Especially when the worst that could happen is nothing which is exactly what’s going to happen if OP says no. Literally can’t go backwards no matter what, but it’s possible they could go forward.
Well…unless something psycho happens, I guess. Then OP will bmsuffer greatly, go very backward, traumatised for life etc. etc. etc…
- Comment on Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed? 1 week ago:
You can also filter out keywords like Trump, Elon, GOP, etc. Generally this excludes shit from their little tribal conflict but retains post that could be of interest.
- Comment on It's 2025, the year we decided we need a widespread slur for robots 2 weeks ago:
Clanker is so ick. Especially for protocol services like an AI or bot where the only moving parts are the fans and pumps server-side.
Toaster is cool, but describes an early model of robot in Battlestar Galactica because it had bread slots looking eyes. I sill like it though because they generate ridiculous hear doing a simple task.

That’s true…
Dick Tracy then!
Technically Tintin…? 🤣

Well I didn’t lose it, it just got FUBARed by something big. Either landed on it or tried to take it away. All peppers gone too, right when they were starting to turn red :(
- Comment on 🐀🔥🔥🔥 2 weeks ago:
I assume so. I have had critters gorging on my ghosts and reapers in the garden. Losing an entire plant overnight was the last straw so I have webbing up now, but they were clearly unaffected.
- Comment on Netanyahu to urge ‘full conquest’ of Gaza as ceasefire talks reach an impasse 2 weeks ago:
I thought they were just getting the hostages back…
- Comment on Why do people like the Punisher comics? 2 weeks ago:
A character doesn’t need superpowers to be interesting. People can enjoy the Punisher despite him being “just a guy who shoots people with a gun” in the same way people enjoy “John Wick”, Judge Dredd, “Taken”, Jason Bourne, “Die Hard”, or any movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
How did you get through all of that without pointing out Batman?
- Comment on AI slop is ruining all of our favorite places to scroll 3 weeks ago:
There were those that tried, especially with memes, but they’ve been hanged, drawn, and quartered.
Now it’s just the small band of pro-AI users that go blank whenever someone explains how generative AI works.

And the hippie mums dig it.

Like this tweet wasn’t paid for by billionaires.
- Comment on Developer survey shows trust in AI coding tools is falling as usage rises 3 weeks ago:
It’s just Markov chains running on a heap of poorly governed sources. Expensive because Markov chains are brutish to process.
But processors get faster and faster to calculate and conclude a chain rapidly. I could see why people think it’s intelligence since it is chains running through sources of human intelligence, but it’s not. It’s simple math from the late-1800s and we’ve been using it for predicting many things for a long time. Funnily enough, language was what Markov started with.
- Comment on And nothing of value was lost 3 weeks ago:
I once got called a Nazi and a Communist at the same time.
It was in response to a remark about social healthcare systems, which I can’t deny both Marx and the Nazis’ NSV were all for that. But one could note some slight differences in opinion on how to go about it, plus a few other little things here and there.
- Comment on Is it okay to cover the outside of a microwave in aluminum to prevent or lessen microwave WiFi interference? 3 weeks ago:
My first thought is its not the microwave unless they’re multitasking TV dinners and League of Legends a few times each evening.
I just got this hunch it’s something like clogged channels or something, but OP thinks a microwave just sitting there is the issue. But that seems just as unusual.
- Comment on Competition shows humans are still better than AI at coding – just 3 weeks ago:
It’s more like comparing a review of Chapter 1 to a book report.
We know a computer is faster at things. It relies on that to perform iterations, overcoming the core shortfall of actual intelligence. Whereas the ideas a human gets are established almost instantly, especially with experience, but they perform slower.
Literally, this is the “development” in software development.

I assume they push you hard to connect them at first use.
Duh. How else do you expect people to improve their muscle mass and cardio?

That said, I don’t like that after playing Suzerain my queue still gets other “Visual Novel” recommendations.

Sony Pictures appears at the start of many awful films. I think it’s their thang.
- Comment on The Death Of Industrial Design And The Era Of Dull Electronics 4 weeks ago:
I like it boring. I get to customise a blank slate how I want. I really rather not have things in my life that are by someone else’s interpretation of “good” design. Ending up with more shit like my Dyson, or a modem trying to be the centrepiece of the living area…
- Comment on When you're stressing against an opponent, remember, they're stressing just as much about you too 4 weeks ago:
When I was competing in climbing I knew I’d do well and just wanted to have fun. I didn’t think about others beyond seeing if I’m friends with anyone in my next group.
This has been the case in everything I’ve competed in. Never noticed anyone stressed, just really focused.
