- Comment on YouTube's new ad strategy is bound to upset users: YouTube Peak Points utilise Gemini to identify moments where users will be most engaged, so advertisers can place ads at the point. 1 day ago:
Yep - I legit haven’t seen an ad on YT in years. I also, just the other day, ran across another filter that disables the stupid shorts since I don’t care for that format or YT pushing it on me all the time. Almost usable platform now.
- Comment on Future apocalypse movies won't have survivors scavaging abandoned cars. 2 weeks ago:
Correct - not direct drive, but seems like that’s not really a necessary goal for most of us. If you really need to be able to just drive non stop all day while the sun is out, I don’t think that’s been solved yet (would still have to stop for gas even).

Em Spaint is the only tool I use for editing jiffs. It’s top notch.
- Comment on If you work hard enough, your work will [pay off].’ And that’s not true. 1 month ago:
This is my beef with religion. Many seem to push the core idea that you should be honest, kind, generous, and forgiving for the promise of future rewards (heaven, or whatever comparable idea, depending on the belief system) or the prevention of future punishment and suffering (hell, etc), not for the simple pursuit of being a better person or improving the world around you.

#3 is the best mechanical I’ve ever owned, hands down. 3 all day long.
- Comment on 3's grip looks the most comfy 1 month ago:
Clear winner.

- Comment on In the US, it's finally socially acceptable again to clap when the plane lands 2 months ago:
Was on a flight a few months ago, and when we landed, no clapping - dead quiet. Out of the silence, I heard a, what must have been, six year old shout really loudly “WE DID IT!”.
- Comment on Far to many people think that Jesus from the Bible was light skinned, even though he grew up in what we call the Middle East. 2 months ago:
“Too many,” or is “far to many” a new phrase that the younger folk are using? I’m trying to keep up with the changes to language.
- Comment on No beans, only dogs 3 months ago:
Something for everyone then. I was gonna say Seattle is the only one on there that sounds absolutely god awful.
- Comment on January is finally over! 3 months ago:
Should probably start celebrating at the end of every month we haven’t blown ourselves up.
- Comment on Dell kills the XPS brand 4 months ago:
Resurrecting their commercials from the 90’s now, it would go like this:
Duuuude, you’re gettin’ a Dell.
Oh…… dang.

What advice (uplifting or real-shit depressing) would you give to someone who just turned 18?

Has your couch ever had relations with JD Vance?

Soooooooooo……. More ads and bullshit then? I regret not the 5 or so clicks it took to delete my account.
- Comment on Google creating an AI agent to use your PC on your behalf, says report | Same PR nightmare as Windows Recall 6 months ago:
We had many such protocols back in the nineties when the internet and web were fun, but we can’t have nice things.
Yes, this was a jaded-gen-xer-get-off-my-lawn moment.
- Comment on Ford’s CEO Is Daily Driving A Xiaomi SU7 EV And Loving It | Carscoops 6 months ago:
These have 500 mile range - baffles me that none of the EVs being made by the west can provide better range than they are now. Seems like 250 is the standard cap for “normal” models. Some way less and some slightly more.

Will our new robot overlord still allow us to hate on Elon?
- Comment on "Skip ad's" YouTube and "Skip Intro" on Netflix take the same amount of effort but I only hate the former. 7 months ago:
Ooh - apostrophe gore in the title.
