  A good reminder to cancel PlayStation plus.

  Balls of steel

  Well shucks. I thought that maybe some really racist people were weekend at Bernie’s him. I guess he’s just an asshole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump cosplaying⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t he cosplaying a perverted, old ghoul?

  Also, tinfoil and ghost shop is pretty cool if you have a hacked switch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: You don't own your Kindle e-books.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  YSK, finding and installing mobi files are easy. Also, keeping your Kindle in airplane mode prevents ads. Fuck Amazon. Calibre is a great open source piece of software.

  The PS5 was such a disappointing mispurchase. I was so excited to finally get one… It just doesn’t feel like any major improvement over a PS4. It is just gathering dust except for the occasional Blu-ray movie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California will force companies to admit you don't own digital content⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Good. This should have been clarified years ago, and not just in California. I’ve bought too much content that is no longer accessible. For instance, from the Wii store…

  With Puff Daddy? Tech bros do the coolest stuff.

  I’m sure they were dead weight. I trust open AI completely and all tech gurus named Sam. Btw, what happened to that Crypto guy? He seemed so nice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube has found a new way to load ads | AdGuard Blog⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a good question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because, it is really the last thing that windows did better than Linux. There are many reasons to switch Linux. Having control over your computer is the primary one in my opinion. Maybe I made a poorly worded argument, but the fact that windows can just change your system is on you is incredibly frustrating. I haven’t used Windows in almost 10 years, and I don’t think I’ve missed much. Recent advances in wine and proton make it incredibly easy to run windows software, and for the few things that don’t work there are arguably better alternatives.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate to be that guy, but why don’t you just move over to Linux already? Games work. It’s incredibly easy now. A nine year old could install and use xubuntu.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Headlines⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You may be correct, but the loss of civilian life in Gaza is truly horrific.

  Ugh, that’s disgusting. Which manager so I know to stay away from it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MAR10 Day 2024 - Nintendo⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know why you are getting downvoted. Their actions against yuzu and citra are particularly egregious, and unforgivable in my eyes. Especially, considering they use emulation in their own products. For instance, the nes mini used roms download from the Internet. I’ll think twice about buying Nintendo products in the future, and I love Nintendo products.

  Adsense is literally 90% of the market. Let alone android…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Says New 5-Second Video Load Delay Is Supposed to Punish Ad Blockers, Not Firefox Users⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The last scenario is clearly a breach of anti-trust laws. It is time for alphabet to be broken up. Their monopoly is way worse than AT&T every was.
