Lol fantastic. My uncle introduced me to this one when I was a kid
- Comment on Judging by how many users on the internet telling Americans to "just move to another country lolz", people must think immigration laws are very lax or something... (it's not) 18 hours ago:
I’m not moving any goal posts. You made a statement that equates to “but it is easy if you are american so Americans are whiners” and that’s just plain false. Easier than some countries, sure. But still not easy.
Just because a couple barriers are removed, doesn’t make the process easy and accessible. Glad you can galavant about with nary a care, I wish I were so priviledged as you, but that’s not realistic for the overwhelming majority regardless of country of origin.

I use 2x on certain videos where some talks really slow and I want them to get on with the explanation but don’t want to scrub through it trying to hit the right timestamp.
- Comment on Do we have No Man's Sky fans here? 22 hours ago:
I can definitely understand that. It’s especially bad coming back to an old save. Feels like Gandalf in Moria “I have no memory of this place…”
Also…
Fuck you Shoresy!

No one is whining about having a strong passport though. You’re giving a false equivalence. In most cases it’s about not having the funds, skill set, or resources to leave.

While there are definitely perks to being an American trying to relocate, it’s also definitely not easy. If you think it is, you are operating under a survivorship bias. Your situation will vary greatly from another’s.

And this is one of a few reasons that frequent password changes aren’t very helpful in increasing security over the difficulty it adds to the end users.

I will never be surprised by insecure IoT devices.

My ddr4 now costs more than I bought it for originally. This after having dipped below $70 for 32GB. Now it’s over 300.

Lol good riddance. I cannot stand that smug twat.
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 2 weeks ago:
Nah, just being an internet idiot and purposely misspelling ‘now’.
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 2 weeks ago:
Android is technically based on Linux so maybe go with a custom ROM like Grapheme? I’ve found the experience on it to be enjoyable personally and feel a lot better about my security even if I don’t lock it down as hard as some people.
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 2 weeks ago:
This is an American company. They will do what their leaders from Israel want because no company seems to have the stones to tell them to pound sand.
- Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’ 2 weeks ago:
Nao.

QNAP still seems OK, but avoid synology. They are always working on some end hit to fixation scheme.

Yeah I’m not looking forward to that part either. I’m working on getting rid of all my services first, but that’s next on the list.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 weeks ago:
For sure. I don’t care to get in on early access too often.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 weeks ago:
Really? Were they the later games? I grew up with the NES ones.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 weeks ago:
I get it. I’ve seen some on here that make no sense to me as metroidvanias. But I think it might be generational. To me a metroidvania has to be 2D, because those are the kinds of metroid and castlevania games I grew up on.
Seeing suggestions for Batman Arkham games or Supraland (love both series) is a weird suggestion to me because I see those as action and puzzle platformer respectively. But for people growing up with 3D Metroid etc. I can see why they’d classify it that way, even though I think the series changed away from the classic metroidvania genre at that point and into more action or action platformer.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 weeks ago:
I was scrolling looking for this one too! Really excellent game. I’ve been enjoying it and it scratches my metroid itch better than what most people are listing off.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 3 weeks ago:
Ayyyy plus one on both Carrion and Supraland! Loved both of those. I can’t wait to get the latest Surpaland game (Supraworld iirc?). Such a fun puzzle platformer.

Yeah the only things I have a google account for are YouTube and the play store. And the play store is getting less use now that I have moved to Graphene. So nothing core to my life thankfully. Now if I can get my MS utilization down to that I will be feeling pretty good.
