  Musk trying to frame himself as a human-rights activist is so cringe. Equating access to Xitter as a human right for minors while also trying to make out that his hate machine platform is somehow well moderated is pure insanity to anyone with a brain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hyperbaric oxygen chamber⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I read that as “cannibis” and now I can’t unthink it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Firefly, the shinest damn show in the 'Verse⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I won’t spoil it here, but there is an explanation if you go searching for it. It has been a long time, but I believe the comic in question was called A Shepherd’s Tale.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many hands long do they get?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Did Donald Trump just reply to me? That rambling story intertwining word salad, along with the misreading of DECIMALIZED has me convinced.

  Although I’m enjoying the thought of decriminalized numbers now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many hands long do they get?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  One Imperial deer is 1.74832 bicycles. If you’re going to use a retarded system, you must also use retarded significant figures.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can anyone identify this colony formation?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dafaq? Saddam had nothing to do with it, and a vast majority of the world knew that at the time. That’s why the bullshit WMD story was circulated as an excuse to attack, and still most of the world was dubious at best.

  A lifestyle change would have arguably saved him, if he decided to stop living like a human shitstack that is.

  I looked prettier when you couldn’t see me!

  Not to mention Yellow Split and Yellow Split Peas are apparently different things too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Worst part about living in Europe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe throw a housing association in there too. You’ve gotta make sure your fining people for growing the wrong flowers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think they hate us, it just that they love money more. They can, and do, inflict untold misery and suffering so long as there is money at the end of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Kinda. Murdoch killed the NBN because Foxtel was not in a position to compete with fibre.

  Is that a wedge-tailed eagle? Those birds are huge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apart, low in cholesterine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. H2O2 would not be a pleasant drink.

  The fuck is a wifi connected olympic bar and why would you buy one? It’s just a fancy 20kg rod ffs

  Not to mention hilarious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK Billionaire Rupert Murdoch owns Sky News, The New York Post, The Sun, The Times,Fox News and the Wall Street Journal. He is the most powerful businessman in the West⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And the Australian people, and the British people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Why the hell did we ever drop it?’: Labor should push for new carbon tax, ex-Treasury head says⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You dropped it because you were in minority government and Abbott was racking you over the coals talking about a “big new tax”. If I remember, what’s his excuse?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Say Hello to the World's Largest Hard Drive, a Massive 36TB Seagate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This hard drive is so big when it backs up it makes a beeping sound.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LIMBO and INSIDE are being delisted from GOG on July 17th⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really enjoyed them, but I wouldn’t say there’s any replayablility there. I enjoy the dark atmosphere and a lot of the fun for me was just the discovery and seeing what sort of creepy stuff coming next. Once the games were finished I didn’t feel the urge to play them again.

  America borrowed a washing machine from America to troll America? I don’t get it.

  Not to mention those fancy jet fighters that burn up on the runway and can’t fly in thunderstorms. Playing the long, long waiting game on those.

  Street Fighter. It’s fantastically bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix will show generative AI ads midway through streams in 2026⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh?? If a streaming site (or any product for that matter) is free, the user is the product - be it their time, personal info, whatever. It is known and accepted that a “free” service will have a catch that allows the provider to make money.

  If a user PAYS for a service it is expected that the payment is enough remuneration for there to be no strings attached. Of course companies will look for shitty ways to do shitty things to make more money, and those companies ought to be punished, generally by a reduction in customers, for their shitty behaviour.

  There’s always the Opportunity rover one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨America is fucked⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say waiting for an ambulance while a loved one dies in front of you just because assholes wouldn’t get out of the way is more annoying. No doubt followed by some health insurance bullshit that makes zero sense in any other country. But no, it’s the tourist who’s wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone remember how popular the group Head Cleaner was?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  From what I recall Play Both Sides was their only album, but virtually everyone had a copy so they must have been pretty good!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was a British tourist trying to leave America. Then I was detained, shackled and sent to an immigration detention centre⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doing payroll would be you performing a transaction in another country to people in that other country. At no point are you performing work where you receive remuneration in the country you’re visiting - which is the point of working visas. Just because you did a bit of paperwork for your work back home doesn’t mean you’re violating tourist visa conditions.
