- Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers 1 year ago:
To your point about watching YouTube with adblockers still helping Google due to viewership numbers. That’s exactly why after I stopped supporting blizzard (at first due to the blutzchung controversy, then everything else that happened) I immediately stopped playing hearthstone, yes, I was playing it free, I never spent any money on it, but I didn’t want to even indirectly help by giving them usage statistics, or by giving paying people even a little bit of a quicker matchmaking.
- Comment on Google lays off employees working on its voice assistant 1 year ago:
Honestly, I pretty much only use mine for relatively cheap home speaker groups.
- Comment on 'This is only the beginning': Metal Gear Solid fans lose their minds as David Hayter returns to voice Solid Snake in a new teaser 1 year ago:
As to his voice quality going down, I know it’s been a while since he did snake, but just watching this video I agree. Honestly, if I didn’t see him, and I just heard his voice at the end, I would assume it was a different actor.
- Comment on The employees secretly using AI at work 1 year ago:
I do that with SOPs, part of my job if to create them for a new system we’re using. I essentially just create bullet points, say hey, can you make the following into an SOP? And paste my bullets. It spits out a pretty clean looking SOP that I just need to go in and edit a bit. It’s really useful.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella admits giving up on Windows Phone and mobile was a mistake 1 year ago:
I fucking loved when Pokémon go came it, it was so great, but a couple of months after it came out, I was going to the beach, and i was so excited. I figured, going to the beach, I would be swimming in water type Pokémon, then when I got there, I was like, oh, it’s the same zubats at home. Never really played it after.

100% that, plus more competition.
There was a point where I had planned on getting a tesla for my next car, but now I’m avoiding it like the plague.
- Comment on So Sad 🥲 1 year ago:
Yeah. Just off the first movie I believe there are 3 time lines. I could be wrong though.
There’s halloween 1, 2, 4, and 5 Then there’s halloween 1, 2, H20 and resurrection Then there’s halloween 1, Halloween 2018, Halloween kills and Halloween ends.
Then there’s also the Rob zombie Halloweens, but those are completely separate. There’s also halloween 3 but I’m not sure where that fits in since it didn’t have Michael Myers.
- Comment on So Sad 🥲 1 year ago:
Depends on which time line you’re talking about
- Comment on Microsoft expected to finally buy Activision Blizzard next week 1 year ago:
Encouraged may not be the right word, but they allegedly knew and not only didn’t not care, but tried to hide issues from the board of directors. Plus the CEO literally threatened to kill his assistant.
- Comment on Windows 12 May Require a Subscription 1 year ago:
I’ve played around with Linux before, but never really wanted to use it. I’ve always just been happy with windows. Without a doubt though, if they started a subscription for it. I would switch to Linux.
- Comment on Delta is fourth major U.S. airline to find fake jet aircraft engine parts with forged airworthiness documents from U.K. company 1 year ago:
I don’t know why you’re getting down voted. Overregulation is crazy, I was watching this interview by the CEO of this company that explores the ocean named Stockton Rush, and he has the same argument that the government needed to stop regulating so much. I should look him up, I’m not sure what happened to him…
- Comment on I was just existing, bro 1 year ago:
That’s something that’s never made sense to me. When I’ve been hiring for positions. I didn’t care if they took some time off working.
- Comment on OP finds vulnerability where a forum sends you your password in plaintext over email and everyone misses the forest for the trees 1 year ago:
This will explain it for you.
- Comment on Unity apologises. 1 year ago:
That really upset me. Domino’s was my favorite pizza, but then after they changed it. I don’t like it anymore. ☺️
- Comment on Tomb Raider 1, 2 and 3 getting remasters early next year 1 year ago:
Exactly, this game I believe is being done by Aspyr. While KOTOR was a remake obviously, it was the last time they tried to do a big game and it apparently was a disaster.
- Comment on Gamers nexus on LTT 1 year ago:
Billet labs has come out and said that LTT has suggested they could get the cooler back for them, and billet labs declined and said they would just take the reimbursement.
They said their reasoning for that include (they said more, but just a few brief reasons) the fact that they can’t know if it’s still in the condition required, and if not, how much time and money it would take to repair it they don’t know if it would have all the various pieces still attached, once again, not knowing how much time or money it would cost to replace those they’ve already begun work on recreating the prototype they’ve confirmed it didn’t go to a competitor, so less worries about ip issues and finally, and the biggest thing to me that I was unaware of before reading their statement, they sent LTT a 3090ti to along with the block to test it, LTT then proceeded to lose it (which is why they used the wrong card in the video) and just recently found it, which meant LTT had not only their block but a 3090ti for 9 weeks so they didn’t know if LTT could get it back how quickly they would send it to Billet.
