- Comment on Steam keeps on winning 10 months ago:
Let’s start a pool to predict how many years/months until Steam enshitifies. It WILL happen. It’s just a matter of when.

Tell me your secret.
- Comment on It's Time to Ditch Evernote for One of These Alternatives 10 months ago:
I still use Tomboy Notes synced with Nextcloud & Dropbox. It’s ancient, but I’ve never come across anything else that does these things:
- temporary sticky notes.
- permanent sticky notes
- glorified clipboard buffer
- personal wiki
- light weight (no browser, database, or network required)
- one small window per note
- optional categorization into notebooks

On my phone both lines are the same color.
- Comment on Can I use two different drives? 11 months ago:
I wouldn’t mix 5400 rpm drives with 7200 rpm drives, but if the rpm & sizes are the same, there won’t be any measurable performance loss.
- Comment on I want to talk in an American accent but how can I transition into it slowly for people who know me without them noticing a sudden change? 11 months ago:
Actors usually pay for professional dialect coaching. Before the practice became common place it was amusing to watch British actors play Americans using terrible accents. I know it applies the other way around, but I’d have a harder time noticing it.

I don’t know why you’re being down voted. I’m I’m on of the cyclist with a huge ass-belly.
- Comment on What makes a bicycle so expensive? 1 year ago:
I see no evidence that these bike manufacturers are super profitable, so I doubt there is much “massive profiteering”. Good bicycles are a high tech but low volume industry.
I spent 1.2k on a lower-end-good-bike 11 years ago. It’s the best fun per dollar purchase I’ve made in my 60ish year life. I wish I’d spent a few hundred more for an Ultegra group set.

Remember when NASCAR racing meant “stock” car racing? Me neither.
- Comment on What makes a bicycle so expensive? 1 year ago:
Cycling is the new golf. There are lots of 50 year old dentists with disposable income out there who think electionic shifting and aero carbon wheels will enable them to drop their “buddies” on their Saturday group ride.

Breaking news: many Gen Zs’ grand parents are not boomers, but Silents.

Read the article? Gen-Z doesn’t read articles! /s
- Comment on Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do 1 year ago:
You are hereby banished from the internet for even mildly defending boomers!
- Comment on Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do 1 year ago:
Been online before you were born, kid.
- Comment on Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do 1 year ago:
I think it has more to do with age and experience than generational labels. Kis who “were just born yesterday” or “are still wet behind the ears” have always been, and always will be gullible. Everyone needs to be fooled a few times before they “wise up”. We need to stop all generational finger pointing and bigotry.

LOL

Typical millenial humor
- Comment on What does it mean to "get low" or "drop it down"? 1 year ago:
Get down and boogie.
- Comment on My Review of Scanners (1981) 1 year ago:
I saw this movie as a teenager when it came out. I have very remember very little about it except walking out thinking that it was the stupidest movie I’d ever seen. I’m sure I’ve seen worse since then.
- Comment on Disney Legacy Animated Film Collection | Available November 14 1 year ago:
Yeah, but it comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. That alone makes it worth the price.

This is why mandatory access control is so important.

Or just left click to highlight & middle click to paste.
- Comment on Pentagon has the worst IT helpdesk in the US government 1 year ago:
They are there to document in excruciating detail how their budget is NOT being misspent, because we can’t abide waste and mismanagement!

I shall spay and neuter my pets in honor of Bob Barker.

But what if we are all NPCs?
- Comment on As Twitter destroys its brand by renaming itself X, Mastodon user numbers are again soaring | TechCrunch 1 year ago:
I’m not usually interested in what big companies have to say, but I follow some journalists who fortunately cross post to Mastodon, but all discussion takes place on elmo’s X site.
- Comment on The world's largest chipmaker promised to create thousands of US jobs. There are growing tensions over whether US workers have the skills or work ethic to do them. 1 year ago:
This is just a negotiating tactic. An extra tax break will solve those problems. Nothing to see here. Move along.
- Comment on Twitter is throttling traffic to websites Elon dislikes 1 year ago:
Twitter is website that contains “links to” the other 5 websites. Those “links to other sites” are really links to Twitter scripts that do database queries before finally linking to the other sites for real. It is easy for elmo to insert delays in the process.
- Comment on Streaming TV costs now higher than cable, as 'crash' finally hits 1 year ago:
Merely suggesting the easiest way of paying creaters, while getting the benefits for pirating. What other interpretation can there be?
