Fair point. I rarely pay attention to the instance.
Fifth amendment of the US constitution. It’s the right to not self-incriminate. i.e. pleading the fifth means you’re not going to answer a question or in this context, not provide relevant information.

THE FIFTH!!!

I’m reading right now. Ohh, you mean books? I plead the fifth.

- Comment on Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10 5 days ago:
Not if your PC doesn’t support some arbitrary requirements. I can’t upgrade because of the TPM requirement. There are ways to get around it. But at the same time Windows 11 isn’t really something I want to upgrade to. It’s got a bunch of crap I don’t need or want. Not that Windows 10 didn’t. Windows 11 is just worse and I’ve drawn a line.
I have to use Windows 11 for work so I know what I’m missing. Nothing. Well, the screenshot button being mapped to the snipping tool is nice. But there is already a shortcut for the snipping tool.
- Comment on [News] Takopi's Original Sin becomes first anime to have each episode rated over 9 on IMDb 5 days ago:
Interesting. Mostly because I didn’t like it. I don’t think it’s bad though. Just don’t think it’s all that good. Above average, if only because it’s so dark.
Is there something about it I’m missing?

Someone like the SNES.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
Mostly based off hours played: EU4, Borderlands 2, Bioshock.
I excluded League of Legends even though I probably have the second most hours in that. Toxic as shit and I’m glad I gave it up.

Doubt it’ll even be ready before he’s out of office. Everything I’ve read said it’ll take years to make all the necessary changes.
- Comment on India’s median salary is $320 USD per month 3 weeks ago:
It is, but I was trying to give the article the benefit of the doubt because I expect that to be higher.
- Comment on India’s median salary is $320 USD per month 3 weeks ago:
Where are they getting an average salary of $7,920 a month for the US? I see about $62k a year which is just over $5k a month. Granted, that’s median, but I can’t find the mean.
- Comment on ‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing 3 weeks ago:
My friend shares her’s with me continuously. I do not share mine. I see no point. I don’t even know why she shares her’s with me. I’ve only found it a bit useful two or three times over the years. And more of in a “I don’t have to walk around this area to find her” way. If I didn’t have her location I’d just walk around a couple minutes to I spotted her.

Part 1? Why must you do this to me…
- Comment on TV Anime 'Ibitte Konai Gibo to Gishi' (My Mother-in-law and Sister-in-law who Don’t Bully Me) announced. (Teaser Visual) 3 weeks ago:
Is there a contest to come up with the dumbest anime/manga name that I’m not aware of?
- Comment on Bring them back!!! 5 weeks ago:
I mean, the science did go wrong too. They tried making dinosaurs all one gender but used DNA from an animal that can spontaneously switch genders. Sounds like they fucked up to me.
- Comment on Detained immigrants at 'Alligator Alcatraz' say there are worms in food and wastewater on the floor 5 weeks ago:
A hastily built prison isn’t up to standards. I’m shocked I say, shocked.

It’s cool to assume guilt now.
- Comment on Fixed speed camera toppled hours before switch-on 1 month ago:
That would make any deliberate destruction of government property a terrorist act. That’s absurd.
- Comment on Fixed speed camera toppled hours before switch-on 1 month ago:
I believe it’s a lot of exaggeration to call it that. Like, an egregious amount.

They love driving a trend into the ground. How does something like this get a second season?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
If boobs had guns like in Austin Power, our heads would explode trying to figure out if we cared about the 2nd amendment more or being prudes.

Let’s just light the atmosphere on fire. Sounds like the quickest solution. Surely there can’t be any downsides.

And yet, PNG has more support. If they start supporting the new spec, seems like an improvement to me.

I’d like to know how they believe a for profit company could end up reducing costs. By definition their goal is to make profit. Where do they think the profit comes from?
