- Comment on People born after 2000 have never seen the cosmic microwave background on their TV set. 3 days ago:
Well to be fair at some point most/all CRTs showed a blue screen instead of static. So it’s possible someone born in 2000 never saw the snowy display.

Job’s done.
- Comment on What good thing just happened in your life? 3 days ago:
Went to visit my elderly aunt, she’s the oldest one in our immediate family at this point. We went out to eat at a local pizza place too, Don’t think I’ve ever been to a restaurant with her before
- Comment on America locked and loaded: White House is barricaded, stores board up and there's a chilling warning as election tensions soar 1 week ago:
What are you taking about? Dems would file lawsuits and use legal means to contest anything they think was illegal.
- 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. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I think if you’re going to be advertising their brand the product should be free or they should even be paying you to wear it out in public.
- Comment on Trumpism is just Scientology done as politics instead of religion. 2 weeks ago:
So, Greene hopped herself into the fake cage to fake pray with the fake inmate who committed real crimes in a fake fight against fake voter fraud aimed at discarding real and legitimate votes in order to keep America’s fakest real president in power.
- Comment on Birmingham Travel Guide 3 weeks ago:
We have a local chain of gas stations with 'The Market" food counters in them, they make really excellent deli sandwiches.
- Comment on Starfield Design Director Responds To Shattered Space Criticism 5 weeks ago:
Same with Star Wars Outlaws, maybe hating the game gets them more clicks. And then a year from now they can make videos talking about how Outlaws is great now and was underappreciated on launch.

Come on guys, I just want to clean the office and go home!
- Comment on YouTube Shorts can now run up to three minutes 1 month ago:
Videos, but vertical.
- Comment on Steven Spielberg is ‘a big PC Gamer’ — loves shooters, and insists on keyboard and mouse 1 month ago:
Depends on the type of game.
- Comment on AI bots now beat 100% of those traffic-image CAPTCHAs 1 month ago:
That’s good, hopefully we will quit seeing them. Because I’ve gotten to the point if I see a captcha I just go to another site unless it’s something I’ve got to do.
- Comment on I make games and this literally happened to me this morning 1 month ago:
This sort of thing is pretty common in various industries, they let the money accumulate until it reaches a threshold.
- Comment on Your stupid decal finally makes sense! 1 month ago:
Just to be precise, Myrtle Beach is in SC. I didn’t think the slut life stickers were exclusively from there though.
- Comment on Steam does the opposite of forcing Arbitration on its users 1 month ago:
Well damn that’s going to bite gamers in the ass in the long term.

Your mom goes to college

I used to find some neat patterns in the wood grain on the back of the bathroom door.
- Comment on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 needs 64GB of RAM for ideal performance — oddly, the game install size is only 30GB 1 month ago:
Great as soon as I upgrade to 32GB then games start wanting 64.
- Comment on I hope you don't have any plans this evening. 1 month ago:
The past is the past, surely more letters will fit in the same space!
- Comment on How come roosters crow but crows don't rooster? 2 months ago:
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
- Comment on How do I alleviate bitterness due to lack of intimacy? 2 months ago:
In addition to the advice already given, I would suggest you look at mental attractiveness as well as physical attractiveness. Physical attractiveness can be a ton of fun but then when you actually start living with the person if they aren’t mentally attractive/compatible with your personality then they can be really hard to live with. Look for someone genuine and kind and into the same sort of things you are.
- Comment on Why does the USA have so few legal protections for ordinary people, and how can we change that? 2 months ago:
I don’t know, but companies shouldn’t be allowed to merge if you call either of them and the wait time to speak to a person is more than 2 minutes.
Also companies should have customer conceriges, call them and explain your issue and they navigate the company infrastructure, resolve your issue, and report back.
- Comment on Does a clean PC run better than one with a lot of dust in it? 2 months ago:
Yes if a modern computer gets too hot the CPU will throttle itself and the fans will run faster.
If the computer is on the floor try to get it off the floor at least somewhat. Set it on a box or something.
- Comment on Test of a prototype quantum Internet runs underneath New York City for half a month 2 months ago:
Don’t observe it
- Comment on Questions about the safety of Tesla's 'Full Self-Driving' system are growing 2 months ago:
Tesla keeps promising things are fixed in the next update, then the next update, and so on. I don’t think Tealas have the proper sensors to avoid collisions and their algorithms don’t think like an attentive driver does.
- Comment on Microsoft donates the Mono Project to the Wine team 2 months ago:
In an organization as large as MS there have to be a few good guys. Just don’t let the corporate leadership hear about it.
- Comment on What is this plant? 2 months ago:
I know it as Periwinkle, it has purple flowers occasionally and is good as a ground cover. I plant it intentionally in shady places that tend to get weeds. I haven’t had any problems with it spreading into my yard.
- Comment on Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel 2 months ago:
They need to finish Settings before doing that. Control Panel is almost always the easier way to accomplish things and still the only way to accomplish some IIRC.
- Comment on Go already 2 months ago:
Some sort of linked car-train lane that your car could use self-driving software to enter and leave would be an interesting concept. Like HOV but everyone is linked at the same speed.
- Comment on Go already 2 months ago:
Yeah but I’m trying to GO smoothly and courteously. Somewhere up ahead someone (or many someones) is stopping or merging badly or doing something else stupid to create these phantom traffic jams.
