- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 4 days ago:
I intentionally installed the Xbox Game Bar a few years ago. After doing so, it associated my Xbox login with my Windows PC, and linked the 2, switching my Windows10 user to my Xbox login.
Hard pass.
My response was to switch to Linux.
- Comment on xkcd #3156: Planetary Rings 1 week ago:
Your use of the word “dense” there is a little misleading. At the default view the scale of each satelite pixel looks roughly 20km wide.
- Comment on Goodwill Isn’t a Platform (thoughts on the Digg beta) 3 weeks ago:
It actually is a ghost town. There’s so little engagement, and even the upvote-counts seemingly aren’t obfuscated, and are super low.
There’s also already a lot of conservative trolls who will flame for “MUH SPEECH” if you suggest that they’re an annoying conservative. “Hey man, I’m just asking the questions”. In a ghost town, they appear louder.
My theory is that people just don’t want to comment anymore. We all learned our lesson. If we comment, we just feed the AI beast. I’m not offering my insights and opinions so that you can scrape them.

People have been falling in love with scammers for as long as there have been people.
Be there for your loved ones.
- Comment on [Satisfactory] 222 hours in, I have built a factory that makes 20 heavy modular frames per minute. (more pictures and details in description) 4 months ago:
Looks incredible. I love this game so much.
I have only just started creating individual off-site factories for major production. I have a hefty boy that produces 250 stators per minute, but it’s not nearly as pretty.

- Comment on how did you and your partner change after having a baby? 5 months ago:
You can never know.
I’m a proponent of having a long relationship before major decisions. I’m not saying people who have kids in their 20’s are doomed, but I believe that having a longstanding strong relationship prior to having kids is key. The fear is still there, but the knowledge of how your partner reacts to strife and hardship, goes a long way compared to NOT knowing.
As to changes, of course you’ll change. Parenting a newborn is different than parenting a toddler is different than parenting a tween, etc, etc, etc. Embrace the change. Embrace the challenge. Don’t have kids expecting it to be easy.

Super Earth under attack? Mars in ruins! SEAF soldier NPCS!
Fully epic.
- Comment on Tesla confirms it has given up on its Cybertruck range extender to achieve promised range 5 months ago:
The deposit for a cyberstuck was $150. The package was valued at $16k.
Being happy about lies being exposed is good, but spreading a false narrative about it is bad.

Fair. Chromium.

Consumer grade Linux Mint is impossible to differentiate from Windows/MacOS.
Install Firefox. Install Chrome. Install Steam.
Test it out on an old laptop or computer. It’s trivial. Your life will improve.
- Comment on Flailing OpenAI Calls for Ban on Chinese AI 7 months ago:
The USA wants a world where AI wants permission to consume all copyrighted content for free, but we are charged for access to scholarly papers.

Steam, Spotify, Discord. Whoops, all Chromium.
- Comment on Whenever I see someone walking around in clothes with big, visible branding, I can’t help but think they paid a fortune to wear an advertisement. 11 months ago:
I would challenge you to find a modern automobile manufacturer who doesn’t make their logo huge and illuminated. Also, you can no longer remove them, as they’re often now build into the body-work or frame.
- Comment on Large Boeing Satellite Suddenly Explodes Into Pieces 11 months ago:
Selective quoting is basically lying.
The first, dubbed IS-29e, failed due to a propulsion system fuel leak. Intelsat declared the satellite a total loss in April 2019, later attributing it to either a micrometeoroid strike or solar weather activity.
With the context of the quote, I"m curious what the pattern you’ve identified is.
