Unless I opt out of Gmail? Yep, already done.

My butt makes baggy jeans look slim.
- Comment on *play imagine being sung by random white celeb* 1 week ago:
No he wasn’t. You said that no one was doing anything. He came back to show people are. The media is trying to hide it, but it’s important to spread the word.
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 1 week ago:
Yeah, an intercom between you, your kids, and Amazon.

I also think of overthrowing the oligarchy in the shower.

Apes are so similar to us because we came from a common ancestor. I’d love to hear if there are traits we evolved independently after we split though.

A scam is when someone takes your money under fraudulent pretenses.
What about this thread of ships that people paid for that still aren’t available in game?

Some of them have been waiting for TWELVE YEARS
That’s a fucking scam.
- Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 3 weeks ago:
That’s exactly what he’s been doing with all his businesses. And it works. Tesla is still hugely overvalued as a company.

It’s only gonna be another decade or so, right after 3 more special editions of Skyrim.

- Comment on Windows Is Adding AI Agents That Can Change Your Settings 3 weeks ago:
You’re making the mistake in assuming that what’s popular must be the best/easiest. That’s definitely not true. People don’t pick Windows because it’s easier to use than other OSes. They pick it because that’s what they’re used to. It takes a lot of inertia to get over what people are comfortable with and get them to use something different.
- Comment on Windows Is Adding AI Agents That Can Change Your Settings 3 weeks ago:
That already exists. Do a search on the web and follow someone’s steps. You don’t need an AI to do it. An actual intelligence has already created a guide for you.

As long as the population increases, without making changes to the currency supply, money is going to become more scarce.
Fuck off. The richest 1% own over half the world’s wealth. That’s where the money is going, not Mrs. Johnson down the street having 3 kids.
- Comment on The hills are alive with the sound of music! 🎶🎵 4 weeks ago:
the sound of millions of animals desperately trying to get laid

- Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 4 weeks ago:
Specifically Mint Cinnamon. It has a UI that is very similar to what people are used to in the Windows world.
- Comment on open world chess 4 weeks ago:
Even if the pattern were laid out properly there’s no way it’s “perfect”. There would be slight differences in height, alignments, etc. It comes down to a matter of how close you look, but it will never be flawless.
Imaging the ego on someone like that who thinks their work would even come close to the supreme creator of the universe’s level. They either think they’re far more skilled than they are, or that their deity is far more flawed. Either way it’s nonsense.
- Comment on Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles, controllers, and games worldwide 4 weeks ago:
Thousands of them already exist. They’re called PCs.
- Comment on Crazy idea, a phone setting that when enabled changes touch sensitivity settings to be more selective of touch inputs while in the shower.. 4 weeks ago:

FIFTEEN MINUTES!

- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 5 weeks ago:
I do the same thing with racism or fascism. I call it out.
- Dehumanizing people based on their skin colour
- Subjugating people for your own power and control
- Posting comments saying people shouldn’t chop the end of babies’ dicks off
One of those things is not like the others. Like, at all.
- Comment on Choose one 5 weeks ago:
Where’s the hammer they use to bonk the dead pope to make sure he’s dead?
- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 5 weeks ago:
Why would you come to a thread about circumcision, read the comments about circumcision, and leave a comment about being fed up of circumcision discussions if you were tired of talking about circumcision? If anyone’s “unhinged” here it’s the guy who doesn’t just move on to the next thread.

- Comment on Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads 5 weeks ago:
The personal integrity of others is a concept completely lost on this person, it seems.
If you have no integrity yourself, it’s hard to understand that others do.
- Comment on Bingo 5 weeks ago:
Agreed. As a Canadian I should not have to protect my democracy from the president either.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
No because you brought it over with you. You only declare things you bring back that you didn’t have when you left.
