- Comment on The Verge shows how Google search is useless 8 months ago:
You weren’t around for the 2016 presidential elections.
- Comment on Mint Mobile discloses new data breach exposing customer data 1 year ago:
If I never got the email, does that mean I wasn’t effected?
- Comment on 2024 could be the year the PC finally dumps x86 for Arm, all thanks to Windows 12 and Qualcomm's new chip 1 year ago:
That’s because macs don’t have games. They’ve had 3 iterations of ARM processors and I still can’t download steam natively. If I could, most of my steam library wouldn’t run natively.
- Comment on Google Promises Unlimited Cloud Storage; Then Cancels Plan; Then Tells Journalist His Life’s Work Will Be Deleted Without Enough Time To Transfer The Data 1 year ago:
Google didn’t tell him that they were going to delete the data until a week before. I think that’s the issue. It’s like when you tell someone a family member moved on, you need to use the word “die” or it’s open to interpretation. Google needed to straight up say that they were going to delete the data after 6 months, but they didn’t.
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 1 year ago:
I don’t, but I’ve had about 5 years to replace all of my perfectly good cables with crappy bluetooth audio/dongles.
- Comment on PlayStation To Delete A Ton Of TV Shows Users Already Paid For 1 year ago:
Microsoft may not be the best company, but it’s moves like this that make me trust them more than just about any other company.
- Comment on Car dealers say they can’t sell EVs, tell Biden to slow their rollout 1 year ago:
Stations are often broken, or the billing doesn’t work, or they are in inconvenient areas.
ICE vehicles suffer from the same problems, we’re just accustomed to them and understand how to work around the issues.
- Comment on OpenAI brings Sam Altman back as CEO less than a week after he was fired by board 1 year ago:
The only problem is that MS already owned 49% of openAi.
- Comment on Teen boys use AI to make fake nudes of classmates, sparking police probe 1 year ago:
There’s the matter of consent, and it might legally be along the same lines of giving someone a roofie so they don’t remember in the morning.
- Comment on New evidence confirms COVID-19 vaccines are overwhelmingly safe 1 year ago:
Sounds like “forced” to me.
- Comment on New evidence confirms COVID-19 vaccines are overwhelmingly safe 1 year ago:
My work gave everyone who got it two days off to recover. It’s more like a 20% chance of a 24-48 hour debuff, but you can’t seriously tell me that you haven’t heard of anyone having side effects.
- Comment on What kind of upbringing makes an incel? 1 year ago:
Being a white male in the USA is still one the most privileged groups.
Agreed.
But that doesn’t mean that white men are exempt from needing help.
- Comment on What kind of upbringing makes an incel? 1 year ago:
Yeah, kinda.
If you’re black, there are tons of black or African American support groups available. If you’re a women, again, there are tons of support groups. Black and a woman? Congrats, you can double dip.
Now, what’s the first pro-white-male group you can think of.
That’s why I think it’s not just an individual problem, but a societal one.

It makes you wonder if the trans movement is partially due to micro plastics.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Than call it loan reform.
- Comment on Toyota Will Adopt Tesla-Style Cast Bodies That Might Be Impossible to Fix 1 year ago:
Get an EV. The only expense is tires. I’m hoping my ev can last the life of the battery, which is supposed to be around 22 years.
- Comment on World EV Sales Now Equal 18% Of World Auto Sales 1 year ago:
Generally, the cars fall apart around the battery, not the other way around.
- Comment on New Study: 54% of American Adults Read Below 6th Grade-Levels 1 year ago:
Not just college, but by lawyers, so a doctorate level.
- Comment on Tesla misses estimates for quarterly deliveries; shares fall 1 year ago:
Yes.
- Comment on iPhone 15 overheating reports, with temperatures as high as 116F 1 year ago:
Lithium batteries aren’t going to thermal runaway at 46ºc.
Edit: I looked it up. it’s ~66º, so maybe closer for comfort that one would like.
- Comment on Unity deleted these terms, don't let them get out 1 year ago:
He’s a VC CEO, he’s there to pump the company for everything it’s worth for maximum stock returns.
- Comment on Unity deleted these terms, don't let them get out 1 year ago:
The game is complete and will receive no future updates from me, but will remain on sale for the foreseeable future.
That’s the sticking point. A game could be complete, and receiving no material updates, but still need to be “updated”. Sometimes the app stored require a re-compile and you will be bound by the new terms.
In the worst cases, a highly played but low earning game (like Flappy Bird) requires a recompile to update the minimum API level it supports in the Google play store. There are no gameplay changes what-so-ever. If you don’t re-compile and update it, Google will de-list the game. But you also can’t submit the update unless you accept the new terms.
- Comment on Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome 1 year ago:
Use Edge.
- Comment on More than $35 million has been stolen from over 150 victims since December — ‘nearly every victim’ was a LastPass user 1 year ago:
If something happens to your SSD, you lose all access to everything. And SSDs can die without warning, and be un-recoverable.
- Comment on Google Chrome pushes ahead with targeted ads based on your browser history 1 year ago:
So use Edge. I don’t think Microsoft is doing this bullshit.
- Comment on Do Multivitamins actually do anything? 1 year ago:
Also, never mix iron (not a vitamin btw) with dairy or tea. And take it with some vitamin C
Aside from it not being kosher (milk and meat) what’s wrong with mixing the two?
