- Comment on 80s and 90s commercials... they just hit different, don't they? 1 week ago:
I think we hit peak ads in '98 with this:
Don’t make em like that anymore, or do they? I wouldn’t know.

I mean technically still married but working on the happy part lol

I met my wife on Tinder in 2021. Recently reinstalled it and holy fucking shit it’s changed so much. Feels like a pay to play game now.
- Comment on My brother has or had now a drinking problem. Now he is asking for the worst tasting crap that he can take a cap full like an airplance bottle so his body whenever he thinks about it will remember 1 week ago:
Underberg?! Or other incredibly bitter and foul liquid? It’s a novel idea but I don’t think it would really work. Maybe if you made it even more potent with sucrose octaacetate or denatonium benzoate (active ingredients in those nail varnishes that are supposed to stop you biting your nails).
- Comment on What happens to flies when you let them fly out the window of a car at 75 mph? 1 week ago:
See also squirrels/mice and other small rodents falling/jumping from trees. They DGAF because fall damage isn’t really a thing for them.

Nice
- Comment on Can't get better than this 3 weeks ago:
This will be me in a few weeks. Wife walked out on me and she owns all the furniture so minimalist space here we come. Great for VR and I can set up a little photo studio, with space left over for my crying chair!
- Comment on Moats are back! 5 weeks ago:
This plays out on a less extreme level too, when an area attracts wealth the more wealthy residents will silo themselves behind security gates and kill any sense of community that the area previously had.

- Comment on 64GB of DDR5 RAM now costs more than a MacBook Air - memory prices have surged 300% in just six months 1 month ago:
I looked at how much my 128GB DDR4 costs and holy shit £900. Timed my build well I feel with the 3080Ti.

Jesus christ if you image search it there is a slop avalanche with like a dozen variants with him wearing different clothes and slightly different houses etc. All reposted woth slightly different wording.
- Comment on AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fast 1 month ago:
I recently lost out on some work (big retouching job) due to AI, when the client came back to me to fix the huge mess, it turned out the job had just been farmed out to India by the ‘AI’ company. They weren’t even using a recent Photoshop version so were actually using less ‘AI’ than any pro retoucher would.
- Comment on xkcd #3196: Aurora Coolness 2 months ago:
This is accurate. The best I ever saw lasted about 2 minutes, after hours of sitting watching basically nothing. Everyone else had long gone inside but I still had my camera set. Absolutely worth sitting alone on a hillside, it was by far the most amazing thing I’ve ever witnessed.
It also helps to let your eyes accustom to the dark, IIRC 45 minutes is ideal.

Tried This a few years back and I like a strong flavor but it was too much. Mayne because they used the whole tree!
- Comment on Creative workers on the affects of AI on their jobs 3 months ago:
I do retouching work. Recently lost a client to an ‘AI’ retouching firm. When the client came back to me to fix loads of stuff and I looked at the output, it became apparent that the work had actually just been outsourced to India and there was no magic AI solution.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 4 months ago:
Yeah I can see why they’d not implement it, not even that interested in AR, it’s just a nice QOL feature that I’d miss.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 4 months ago:
Sad about the monochrome passthrough but otherwise pretty hyped for more VR hardware. The Index was a disappointment to me so glad to see it’s more in line with the Quest 3, especially the controllers. They look perfect.

You can make them into patties and fry them up, surprisingly good.
- Comment on Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt your data 7 months ago:
Just a heads up in case you haven’t updated firmware on your 980. I wasn’t aware of the problem and lost my c drive a few months back.

Hold up so theyre banning flippers and portapacks etc?
- Comment on Readers are canceling their Vogue subscriptions after AI-generated models appear in August issue 8 months ago:
I know quite a few fashion brands are quietly switching to AI. As in scrapping whole departments of people who deal with production. Waiting for the push back from consumers but something makes me think this is just going to be the new normal for a while. It’s looking pretty grim for anyone working in the industry.

Couldn’t get into the main game. In VR, however, just exploring was an unforgettable experience.

- Comment on A woman tried to call her mom in Iran. A robotic voice answered the phone 9 months ago:
I know a remote worker in Iran, went dark for a few days this week. Apparently they can’t call the UK, no internet, ended up relaying messages via a friend in Brazil via sat phone.
- Comment on Can deliberate noise harassment still be a crime if it's done every day from 7:30 AM till 10:30-11:30 PM? 9 months ago:
Currently going through this, the council wrote the order, took it to my neighbour, who promptly talked them out of serving it. Said he’d be quiet. Wish it worked like that for parking tickets.
- Comment on NYPD robocops: Hulking, 400-lb robots will start patrolling New York City 10 months ago:
They will have to be very well designed and able to withstand powertools. Once people figured out how to remove batteries from rental ebikes/scooters it quickly becomes a thing.
- Comment on Electronic devices or 'signal jammers' used in car thefts to be banned 1 year ago:
“These devices have no legitimate purpose, apart from assisting in criminal activity, and reducing their availability will support policing and industry in preventing vehicle theft which is damaging to both individuals and businesses.” She added
Yeah how about fuck off with this nonsense.
