- Comment on Twenty four US states are now considering legislation to allow small, plug-in solar power systems that connect directly into a wall socket. 2 days ago:
There is a proposal in my state from 2025 that seems to have been referred to ENERGY, whatever that means, but it hasn’t gone anywhere. Wtf does it take over a year to vote on these stupid bills.
- Comment on Discord Users Threaten Exodus Over Age Verification Face Scan Controversy 4 days ago:
Thanks for the tips! I only just downloaded Matrix. (Element X) to my phone. I’ll have to do some more research on it. I personally could probably set up my own instance if I had to, work it to me, probably not. I mostly use discord for game jam hosting these days, and DnD with my friends. So, if the level of effort is high, or the barrier to entry isn’t low, I don’t imagine ill get a lot of people switching over to the new space. I guess we’ll see what happens.

I’m not threatening, I’m gonna do it. We’ll see how my game jams go after this. I doubt my entire community will follow me.

- Comment on YSK TikTok Is Harming Children at an Industrial Scale. We know this because we obtained messages from TikTok engineers and executives 5 days ago:
Social media is a scourge on society, mostly bcz of the propaganda, misinformation, and disinformation campaigns from state actors. This is a very different and real issue we as a species are dealing with.
- Comment on CEO of Palantir Says AI Means You’ll Have to Work With Your Hands Like a Peasant 1 week ago:
Capitalists are so annoying. The hubris to assume we can accelerate climate change and ignore it and everything will just be hunky dory. It’s astounding these ding dongs think they’re outside the Earth system and not a part of it.
- Comment on 32-year-old programmer in China allegedly dies from overwork, added to work group chat even while in hospital 1 week ago:
A lot of humans will also die in the next 20 years due to climate change. It’s funny you think we’re just gonna keep on keeping on once climate change gets really bad everywhere.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 1 week ago:
A bit more expensive? I was about to get a smart tv for like 800 bucks. The same equivalent dumb tv wpuld have been a few thousand dollars and Best Buy said they would only sell it to business accounts which was infuriating to read.
- Comment on AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fast 1 week ago:
Right… a tool that is destroying our planet all in the name of “the economy”.
- Comment on AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fast 2 weeks ago:
Who cares what business problems AI solves. Humans don’t need to exist to serve capital. It should always be the other way around. That’s one of the reasons we are in this shitty capitalist hell hole, everyone has been indoctrinated into thinking of everything in terms of It’s economic benefit.

In college - Assume everything is linear
Later - Everything is not linear

Best of luck with your game dev journey regardless!
- Comment on Super Nintendo Style Graphics Jam #2 4 weeks ago:
Nonsense, anyone can make a game! You can pair with someone as well if you feel like you aren’t a strong programmer, or artist, or whatever.

Why did we think think the USSR fell? Also DNA does run the show…damn, my genetics knowledge is shit. Apparently we graduated the same year 🤣
- Comment on Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared 4 months ago:
Oh you saw bots, they were everywhere. You just didnt realize you were interacting with bots. At least once a week I found a bot account trying to steer conversations on reddit.
- Comment on Caves of Qud wins the Hugo Award for Best Game or Interactive Work 5 months ago:
Yes there absolutely was, probably actually before windows 95. But even in 95 there were a lot of crappy ascii art games bcz there wasn’t anything better technologically, so nobody would actually call it crappy.
- Comment on Caves of Qud wins the Hugo Award for Best Game or Interactive Work 5 months ago:
What’s your point?
- Comment on Caves of Qud wins the Hugo Award for Best Game or Interactive Work 5 months ago:
Same, I could play it if it was like nes pixel art even. But this looks like it was developed on windows 95 when only ascii art was available.
And the constant text updating you on what is around you bcz the graphics are so primitive.
Based on the description I thought it would be really interesting. But after watching a YouTube video, I was like, eehhhhh, not for me.
- Comment on Global plastics treaty talks in Geneva end in 'abject failure' 5 months ago:
Well, yeah, but money talks. That’s the language companies understand.
- Comment on Global plastics treaty talks in Geneva end in 'abject failure' 5 months ago:
They won’t do anything about it until some rich asshole gets cancer and theyre able to directly link it to plastic pollution. Nobody cares about us pleebs…
- Comment on Drug Enforcement Administration agent used Illinois cop’s Flock license plate reader password for immigration enforcement searches 5 months ago:
Because fuck ICE, thats why…
- Comment on ‘Stop Killing Games’: Demands for game ownership must also include workers’ rights 6 months ago:
Why would you phrase workers rights that way? Its like people have been brainwashed into thinking anything good for everyone, we have to come up with a word for it to make it sound awful…its propaganda 101, and you’ve either bought into it, or youre a bad actor. Either way, fuck off.
- Comment on Transgender, nonbinary and disabled people more likely to view AI negatively, study shows 6 months ago:
Admittedly, I didnt read the article. I think the research is actually beneficial after reading the article, and its exactly the kind of research I think should be done on AI.
Spoke prematurely based on the headline, go figure…
- Comment on Transgender, nonbinary and disabled people more likely to view AI negatively, study shows 6 months ago:
Because it singles people out for no reason. There is absolutely no reason to do a study like this that focuses on marginalized groups. Does this study make these marginalized groups lives better somehow by putting this information out there? Not a chance.
Research for the sake of doing research is assinine, and its rampant in academia. We have a publish or perish attitude in academia that is so pervasive its sickening…ask me how I know that (my partner is a professor)
And we basically all but force people to write papers and try to come up with novelty to justify their existence as a professor.
AI is a scourge on this earth in how we use it today. We didnt need a study to tell us that, much less to single out a few groups of people, who frankly dont need to be singled out anymore than they already have been by the Trump administration.
- Comment on Transgender, nonbinary and disabled people more likely to view AI negatively, study shows 6 months ago:
Human being checking in here, I am appalled by the current usage of AI.
This study is bullshit.
- Comment on Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives? 6 months ago:
Oh, sorry, I meant check out Codeberg.org. I didnt mean to imply I have a plugin for music or a music streaming app you should check out. I do game dev, totally unrelated stuff, that I dont think you would be interested in :P
- Comment on Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives? 6 months ago:
I’m going to migrate my own code to Codeberg.org soon. Its open source, and hosted outside the U.S., so checks all the non-corporo boxes i want. Maybe check that out?
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
What the fuck are you even talking about? Is zero point energy some sci-fi buzz word you heard? Thats a real piece of terminology in quantum physics, but it surely doesn’t mean what you think it means. Bcz if you understood it, you wouldn’t be spouting off nonsense. And just for the record, I have an aerospace degree, so I took a bunch of physics classes in college, and I work on satellite stuff right now. I can assure you, what you are saying is hogwash. Not even sure why im spending time refuting what you have to say.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Infinite population is not possible with finite resources. Unless you are talking about spreading out into the stars, in which case, I think you have watched too much optimize for humans. We have shown repeatedly that all we want to do is destroy stuff.
