- Comment on ‘Hell’s Paradise’ Season 2 Key Visual 6 days ago:
I’m cautiously optimistic. The visuals and intro were incredible but the pacing was not great in the first season. That said, I can’t wait to see what’s next, I feel like the show has a lot of potential.

That’s so hype, I was just talking about how I wanted more of the show
- Comment on The ancient Greeks or Chinese should have already had words for this. 1 week ago:
I had that exact same conversation with my mom but it went like this:
“Ok mom, picture a cow in your head”
“Oookayyy”
“Now you can see a cow right?”
“What do you mean”
“Like… You can see a picture of the cow, right?”
“Nooo”
My dad chimes in “yes, obviously”
“…crap. Mom, I have some news for you”
Both of us grew up thinking we had no imagination or were dumb. I remember being incredibly frustrated when a teacher taught us the concept of the Memory Palace where you picture things in rooms of a house. Like if you had to remember five playing cards you’d picture a room with 7 red clowns, with hearts on their cheeks. Then in the next room you’d picture a king, holding up a spade, etc. That just made it harder for me to remember and the teacher kept telling me I wasn’t listening or trying

Holy crap that’s exactly what I was looking for, thank you!!

I did this as well but the other accounts get ads because the premium only applies to my first account. Terrible user experience and Google go hand in hand
- Comment on Firefox is adding profiles to separate your browsing sessions 1 month ago:
It really is insane how a company can be so massive yet unable to do basic UI. I got a notification that someone replied to a YouTube comment I made so I clicked the notification and it opened up YouTube’s landing page. I tried to find notifications and couldn’t so instead I tried to find a page that has my comment history.
I had to look it up and apparently you can’t even find it on YouTube, you have to go to a separate website, my activity.google.com.
- Comment on Firefox is adding profiles to separate your browsing sessions 1 month ago:
I wish there was a feature like this on YouTube. I’d love a profile for watching educational videos, a profile for feeding me cool videos when I’m high, and a profile for when my kids want to watch stuff. I’m tired of vibing and listening to music videos only to get hit with Disney songs.
It’s insane that they have an incognito mode that still serves up ads even though I have premium.

- Comment on How realistic is it for me to learn Japanese so that I can experience Anime better? How long would it take to learn? Has anyone attempted this? 1 month ago:
TL;DW: keep listening to Japanese media. Watch anime in Japanese with no subs, listen to Japanese podcasts, listen to audiobooks in Japanese, etc. Try to find something you know a bit about because it will help keep you engaged and help with context.
There’s a chapter about tolerating ambiguity which means they in the beginning you won’t understand anything and it will be very frustrating but you need to accept it and keep feeding your brain Japanese inputs. You’ll learn the sentence structure and vocabulary as well as learning pronunciation, this is basically how babies learn. You’re brain is really good at pattern recognition so just give it enough inputs and eventually it will start to click
Start doing Anki cards which will supplement all the inputs. Don’t go overboard, just learn the alphabets and then some common vocab and keep listening to other media. After about a year, start reading and writing a lot. Read manga, read books, and start writing notes and stuff in Japanese.
That’s basically it. You can use study materials if you want but feeding your brain more inputs is key. In addition to being really effective it has the benefit of being way more fun than studying grammar and whatnot
- Comment on Meta chief technology officer(CTO) explains why the smart glasses demo failed at Meta Connect — and it wasn’t the Wi-Fi 2 months ago:
That sounds like complete damage control lies. Why would the AI think the chef had finished prepping the sauce just because there was heavy usage??
- Comment on The song that never ends announces what it is in the first line, then expects us to believe some people started singing it without knowing what it was 2 months ago:
Maybe they started halfway through and by the time they realized what was going on, it was too late. They started singing it, not knowing what it was. And they’ll continue singing it. Forever. Just because…

Ek sal dit nagaan, dankie vir die voorstel! Ek het van Suid-Afrika af geïmmigreer toe ek 4 was, so ek kan dit redelik goed praat, maar my lees- en skryfbegrip is nie-bestaande, so ek gebruik Google Translate om te help lol.

My take is that they don’t understand privilege and are used to being catered to because straight white males are the “default setting”.
I remember when I went to my Korean friend’s wedding my wife and I were the only white couple there and it felt strange. I talked to some of my black friends and it turns out that out of place feeling is just typical for them but racist white people fight that uncomfortable feeling
- Comment on Terraria Hive Base 8 months ago:
When I started playing, the guide was completely useless. He would also open your doors and leave them open, I very quickly grew to despise the guide and made his home a prison.
- Comment on Terraria Hive Base 8 months ago:
To each their own, I hated playing without knowing the crafting recipes and always loved looking up what I can make with everything I picked up.

Keep the wiki open, explore the surface for cave entrances and look for pots/chests, the game completely changes once you get a grappling hook.

To subtly draw your eye’s focus on the important words, letting it dance playfully over “This” before stressing the importance of “A Rock”
- Comment on He's so negative. He's so weird. 9 months ago:
“This One is Just A Rock” You have no idea how satisfying it feels seeing this expressed so accurately, I wish I could make some of my elementary school teachers see this meme because it so succinctly summarizes the struggles I experienced too.
Maybe then they’d think twice before dismissing other kid’s issues in the future 🙏
