Same as with reddit. I so rarely down vote I can’t even tell you the last time I did because like many of you don’t do I understand the difference between disagreeing and not on topic.
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 9 hours ago:
Work phone is not in a case because IDGAF. Personal phone, always Spigen or go home.

Not a problem but highly unlikely it will last. You’re both at completely different points in your lives.
I say if you’re going into the date with a level head you’re good.
- Comment on Developer Builds Tool That Scrapes YouTube Comments, Uses AI to Predict Where Users Live 5 days ago:
To this point. As soon as you use technology you have no privacy and if you think you do you’re an idiot. There is no such thing as privacy in a digital world. There never was.
As soon as you understand that you can shift your focus to what you want of yourself out there if you don’t want it known don’t say it just like if I was in a room full of people. As soon as technology is involved that’s the room full of people.
I am amazed that people struggle with this or refuse to acknowledge it

Got me wondering what Nivek Ogre is up to now
- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 2 weeks ago:
I’d also argue it’s not necessarily a bad thing. If you’re talking shit be sure you’re able to back it up. I am naturally contrarian but in many cases it’s less about what I feel and more about taking the side of the voice that is missing.

Robertson is always the correct answer.

But now telling then it’s $3/month to watch my pirated movies? No bueno.
I lol’d at this I won’t lie.

He could Bakula this bitch up for sure

You know what. I think Star Trek may be what he needs in life. The community and fambase coupled with a supporting cast he could have an extremely quiet and happy career.

I remember watching this when it happened. God it was a simpler time. I’d be the dude grinning although I think many men would be lol

Shorty can devour something for sure.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 5 weeks ago:
I find it hilarious that in even a thought experiment with no bearing on reality you always have people that will shit on your hypothetical fantasies.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 5 weeks ago:
Maybe you missed the “as much as possible” part
- Comment on Looking for ... inventory management, I guess? 5 weeks ago:
Get Ralph it’s awesome. Use it in conjunction with Zabbix too if you’re monitoring your infra as well.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 5 weeks ago:
Fly under the radar as much as possible, find a cute girl and settle down and have a lot of kids.

Photopea. Why bother with paint or a download when it’s all in a browser and Photoshop lol
- Comment on Nintendo ‘warned to expect 145% tariff on Nintendo Switch 2’ 1 month ago:
Tangential but was at the hospital for an Endo appointment with my son and chuckled in our waiting room “I bet there’s an old white guy in a suit right now going ‘but what if we made these waiting rooms smaller?’”
Note. Room was already small.
- Comment on Uncle Sam abruptly turns off funding for CVE program. Yes, that CVE program 1 month ago:
My sense is orgs are correcting now from the over-hiring they did a few years ago. Our InfoSec department blew up over the last 5 years as did many corporations but the problem is in the boom you had, for lack of a better way to put it, a lot of morons snuck in under the auspices of “I took a course I’m a security engineer!”
Now corporations are moving on to risk mitigation which is a completely different skillset.
- Comment on YSK that if you lose your Social Security Card (USA) more than 10 times, the Social Security Administration will have to, by law, refuse to issue anymore replacement cards, for the rest of your life. 2 months ago:
Like you, I am waiting to see what asinine response they give.

This is capitalism not corruption
For everyone here’s a fun thought experience. You have a room with 100 people. In that room is 100$. 1 person (Elon Musk let’s say) holds 95$. 4 people (let’s say various CEO class people) hold $1 each. The remaining 95 people share the remaining 1$.
And yet here we are all fighting because some of our deluded asses think we are going to be one of those 5 people one day.

Oh the same bullshit is done here with Loblaws. I don’t care. They have my info every time I use my credit card at their store that’s all they need and it’s all they get.
If I have to pay more because they’re greedy little fuckpigs so be it.

My GF laughs because I have no loyalty cards or apps and I laugh that she has one for everything.
Loyalty rewards are bullshit.
- Comment on How does this pic show that Elon Musk doesnt know SQL? 3 months ago:
I work for a crown corp in Canada we have, off the top of my head, about 800 MSSQL, Oracle, MySQL/MariaDB, Postgres databases across the org (I manage our CMDB). Musk is a retard. The world runs on SQL.
He wouldn’t know this though because he’s a techbro that builds apps with MongoDB b cause he doesn’t understand what normalizing data is and why SQL is the best option for 99.9999999% of applications.
Fucking idiots.

Same for me with the Samsung Note. It’s just a great size but can’t bring myself to use it and screw apple and their technology design for idiots.

I have big hands and long fingers. I’m still waiting for phones to get big enough for me lol

History doesn’t repeat. It rhymes.
Buckle in kiddo it’s gonna be a fun couple of decades if we survive it.
- Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 4 months ago:
What’s funny (or sad) is that 100 years from now this will be looked at the same was as when Ford or IBM supported the Nazis. Their business won’t hurt long term and Tim Apple will be long dead.
