- Comment on The fastest bicycle in history is the stationary bike on the ISS. 1 week ago:
Yeah but the whole solar system is moving at 720,000 km/h, so all those bikes on other planets are moving just as fast.
- Comment on I've been replaying Into The Breach lately and stumbled on what I think is an insane power squad. 1 month ago:
Love this game! This is the same studio that did FTL. Two of my all time favourite roguelites.
- Comment on Can you see yourself cutting off by a generation of gaming? 3 months ago:
Nah. I’ll always play what I find interesting but I’ll go by price, not generation (as a non console gamer, what even is a generation?). Played lots of early access / new releases this year, but never spent over $25 on any single game.
- Comment on How many games do you manage to play at the same time? 3 months ago:
Just one. Playing two at once would be tricky, I’d need like a second computer or something. And switching back and fourth between keyboards really quickly would probably lead to lots of deaths.

- Comment on Steam is 'an unsafe place for teens and young adults': US senator warns Gabe Newell of 'more intense scrutiny' from the government if Valve doesn't take action against extremist content 5 months ago:
Think of it like your house. You can ask people to leave if they say something you find offensive. That is not infringing on their free speech.
If the owner of a shopping mall wants to ban the word banana, they can ask anyone who says it to leave. That is also not infringing on their free speech. That’s because shopping malls are not owned and operated by the government.
- Comment on Bluesky Becoming New Social Media Sensation As Millions Of Americans Snub X Over Musk's Support To Trump 5 months ago:
Like Lemmy or any social media really, you get out what you put in. If you just follow the generic feed without following anyone, yeah it’s going to suck.
You can make lists, so one for your friends, one for news, one for a hobby. Or you can filter hash tags to really narrow in on a topic. People also make “starter packs” of who to follow for any topic you can think of.
This format is also unbeatable for breaking events.
- Comment on Balatro - Friends of Jimbo (Pack 2) | Reveal Trailer 5 months ago:
I’m debating getting this on mobile or steam deck, is it largely the same experience?
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Because users value usability over privacy.
The major thing that make Mastodon unusable is lack of users. That and lack of algorithmic feeds.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
That’s a good point. The original question was why would someone pick blenny Bluesky over mastodon? You just hit the nail on the head.
It’s because the vast majority of users value features and usability much higher than privacy.
