- Comment on Elon Musk’s ironic bot army exposed 10 months ago:
He’s attempting to make money by increasing the value of twitter to advertisers by using bots.
The fact that the bots are poorly implemented is icing on the cake
- Comment on ‘Front page of the internet’: how social media’s biggest user protest rocked Reddit 10 months ago:
Reddit won’t die tomorrow, likely won’t die for years yet, but Lemmy is very much a viable alternative when it wasn’t a shadow half a year ago. It’s not a perfect change, but it’s something.
- Comment on Rebalancing the price to represent the value... 11 months ago:
I greatly miss the ability to simply purchase a program on a disk for a given year and just have access to that tool.
- Comment on Tim Cook tells Dua Lipa he wants the next CEO of Apple to be an internal hire 11 months ago:
Sure, business insider, this is news. Write that headline…
God the only journalistic institution I respect anymore is the Onion
- Comment on From the team behind The Escapist, we're excited to announce our next adventure, Second Wind 1 year ago:
What happened with the escapist? Can’t say I even paid much attention, but I’ve been a follower of Zero Punctuation and Yahtzee’s handful of novels for years.
- Comment on AIs can guess where Reddit users live and how much they earn 1 year ago:
You seem less of like the Dos Equis guy and more of a wind chimes instead of a penis kind of guy
- Comment on Bungie Longtime Composer Michael Salvatori Is Laid Off 1 year ago:
Bungie’s Halo soundtracks were iconic and can be laid at the feet of Marty and Michael.
I had heard that Marty was difficult to work with, but it’s crazy that you wouldn’t try to retain the talent that got your brand to live in millions of people’s heads rent free.
Even stranger from Sony’s perspective. If you bought an expensive race car and the first thing you start doing is throwing away the expensive parts in favor of cheaper ones, you no longer own a race car. You own something that looks like it, but can’t perform.
- Comment on Google asks Congress to not ban teens from social media 1 year ago:
Yeah Louisiana implemented a government portal that does exactly what you claim through the driver’s license apl. Their database was hacked a little under a year ago with basically all private citizen information stolen.
If you set up a system to use these mechanisms the data WILL BE stolen or mishandled.
- Comment on 4chan Uses Bing to Flood the Internet With Racist Images 1 year ago:
Very business as usual for them, guess the crayon box got emptied out and they got hungry
- Comment on People considering 'cancelling' new iPhone order after seeing comparison between older generation 1 year ago:
I heard the new OS sparkle dream from Venture Industries is a game changer
- Comment on Valve: don’t expect a faster Steam Deck ‘in the next couple of years’ 1 year ago:
They don’t want to compromise battery in favor of performance and I agree. With smaller games like Hades or cult of the lamb my steam deck battery will last and last. On more demanding games like cyberpunk or Armored Core I get a little over an hour out of it best case scenario.
Beefier graphics hardware will only make that issue worse.
- Comment on Over $600 Million Later, Star Citizen Is Now at the Alpha 3.20 Stage 1 year ago:
Whenever you want…provided you spend like 50 dollars on a starter ship (my knowledge is based on the state of the game in 2014 don’t hate)
- Comment on Do You Speak Droidish? The Pentagon Is Spending Millions On A Language For Drones 1 year ago:
Likely because the higher ups or media facing members of the project don’t understand what it is or how it works and had it described to them with an overly simplistic analogy
- Comment on Starfield player claims you can farm 100 levels in just 5 hours using this method 1 year ago:
There’s a power levelling method found in many Bethesda games. I’m interested if modern Bethesda will patch this on let it stay in the game for players that want the end game experience quickly.
- Comment on Starfield - Review Thread (87/100 OpenCritic) 1 year ago:
I think many ambitious games recently get divisive ratings. I remember many cyberpunk 2077 reviews rated it highly praising the (imo excellent) highs while minimizing the lows while many reviewers bashed it for the bugs and incomplete scope. When these reviews come out it almost feels like the reviewers are scared to be the first to open the “hey it’s bad” floodgates

Tldr per the article;
It’s Jordi Van Den Bussche, aka Kwebbelkop
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion [2] 1 year ago:
That’s funny, Warframe definitely has a grind to it, but I remember the combat being a joy with excellent flow. (I haven’t played in like 8 years so take that with a grain of salt)
