  Really dark and I’m here for it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could a minority in US Senate essentially disolve the federal state?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  And to add to that, the Republicans can remove the Senate veto at literally any time with a simple majority vote so it’s clear they think it still serves them to leave it in place. They will remove it when/if that calculus changes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More Online CO-OP Games should have option to pause⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m hooked on Nightreign right now. It would be pretty nice if there was a special pause ping you could do that paused the game if the other two players agreed with reply pings.

  Right where my mind went too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI plans to launch an AI-only TikTok clone⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is happening to a friend of mine that works at a mobile app company. Being very general so it doesn’t get back to her but:

  They’re pushing an AI tool that does parts of her job with the idea that it is something that anyone at the company can access and use. Of course, what that’s going to do is give everyone extra work because they’ll be expected to use this tool in addition to their usual responsibilities. And it will add to my friend’s workload as well becaue she will now need to manage and review everything that everyone else generates before it can go into production.

  So much AI ‘innovations’ are just solutions looking for problems

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨whatever happened to in-store coffee grinders?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Many, at least half, of my local stores still have one though I ended up getting a grinder partly because I can never remember which for sure.

  I’m sort of nerdy about language and that little thing always fascinates me

  Judging by their username they are German and therefore impervious to kink shaming

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nostalgia⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  At the risk of getting downvoted I gotta say there is some excellent weird stuff on that same level that was created with the help of AI tools. There are some artists out there with actual talent and creativity using genAI.

  It’s a damn shame that it’s drowned out by the very real and very overwhelming amount of slop. I keep hoping the creeps that flood the internet with that crap get bored of it so it’s easier for actually creative stuff to rise to the top.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cable management is an art form⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah if you never have to be the one to open it up again and pull stuff apart again then sure. But I’m sure as hell not going to cut and redo zip ties the 4-5 times a year I’m in there adding or changing out something.

  And stop injecting extra ads into podcasts for subscribers

  Yeah I skipped the last one but might actually be interested in this one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forza Horizon 6 - Official Teaser Trailer | Tokyo Game Show 2025⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hm interesting setting

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said America could dodge a ‘retirement crisis’ by encouraging people to work longer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  With all the productivity gains in the last 50 years we should be working shorter work weeks and retiring earlier.

  That this discussion is even happening just goes to show how the rich have pulled the wool over our eyes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amnesty International reveals names of 15 companies involved in genocide in Gaza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow it starts out with all the names I’d expect and then gets pretty dystopian - Airbnb?! Really dark:

  Online travel companies were also among those Amnesty called out in no uncertain terms. These included the likes of Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, and TripAdvisor. Despite warnings, these companies continue to list illegal settlements in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem, thereby contributing to their economic support.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigerator⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a huge fan of my Samsun monitor either actually. There’s a lot of stuff in there that I don’t want or use, and most of what is in there feels pretty half-assed. Will definitely be trying another brand when it comes to replace it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨All 54 lost clickwheel iPod games have now been preserved for posterity⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had mine going until the battery went spicy pillow about a year and a half ago and I haven’t had time to replace it yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can make the case that it’s not a fun use of our time but how is it not tied to difficulty? Being able to get to the boss with enough health or consummables is certainly part of the intended challenge.

  I was pretty surprised that they did have genital customization in the game, no on the other two questions though.

  I guess it’s time to watch it again

  Yep we’re all used to enshittification by now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hm maybe my memory of the post is fuzzy but that is more pervy than I recalled. Still gets to the larger point though about how we talk about violence in graphic detail with no self-consciousness but can’t do the same for sexuality.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Leading up to the release of Cyberpunk 2077 a relatively innocent post about whether players would be able to romance anyone and sleep with them. The absolute mockery and scorn OP received was shameful. It really struck me because it was so clear how we’ve been conditioned to reject sexuality while at the same time being ultra-desensitized to violence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not stealing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  … but if you were to call the cops on me at least it would be a brief yet welcome reprieve from parenting while they come to the inevitable conclusion that he is mine and they don’t want him around either
