- Comment on 'Stop talking s*** about us' - Half-Life 2 mod blacklists a handful of YouTubers as 'anticitizens' and blocks them from playing 4 weeks ago:
I mean, its not trolling if the mod has persistent issues that keep not getting addressed and those keep getting pointed out. Like folks pointing out how bad darksydephil is at video games.
Though, to be fair, I don’t know the youtubers in question so maybe they are just huge assholes. vOv

ahh yes, if you block them from playing, surely they won’t make any content about that and will go on with their day. Brilliant idea. 🙄
- Comment on Joe Biden issues 'full and unconditional' pardon for son 4 weeks ago:
GOP will bitch ofc… but really they just wanted another hillaries emails to fill empty spots in the news cycle so their bullshit would get overshadowed. Biden stopped that shit.
That said, where was this norm defying stuff the past 4 years?
- Comment on Trump’s FCC chair is Brendan Carr, who wants to regulate everyone except ISPs 1 month ago:
Feep like if they were gonna do it, they would have term one donald where they also had full control, though now they have scotus to rubberstamp shit so who knows anymore

Or I could go to bluesky where that change is already in place.

homey blatant about stealing that geass look.
- Comment on Should you trust that doctor? 2 months ago:
For reference on the no training side:
Dr. Dre and Dr. Venture: Both possess honorary doctorates. The former from UCLA, the latter from a Tijuana community college.
Dr. Pepper: Charles T. Pepper did have a medical doctorate. He is cited as a possible source of the name.
Dr. Evil: Evil medical school.
Zoidberg: Claims he lost it in a volcano, more likely a art history degree.
Dr. Horrible: Likely physics though he claims Horribleness (though it could be a catchphrase.)
Dr. Seuss: Intended to get a Doctorate of Philosophy, got an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters.
The Doctor: Per This - While pretending to be the Doctor in an effort to save herself from an army of Cybermen, one of the planet’s deadliest enemies, in Death in Heaven, Clara said: ‘I don’t even really have a doctorate. Well Glasgow University, but then I accidentally graduated in the wrong century.’I feel like a fair amount of those on the trained side aren’t medical doctors (Phil, Ock, Robotnik, Lector, Honeydew) or at the very least, aren’t folks you’d want around for your heart attack.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel had that gimmick and was pretty good.
- Comment on [News] "Yankee JK Kuzuhana-chan" Manga Goes on Hiatus Due to Creator's Health 2 months ago:
Heres hoping we can somehow survive in the mean time. After all there’s basically no other rom com manga out there with a generic male lead and boatloads of women simping over him because he’s, “nice”. Nope, not a one.
- Comment on Google looks to be fully shutting down unsupported extensions and ad blockers in Chrome, such as uBlock Origin – which might push some folks to switch to Firefox 2 months ago:
I’m only using it atm for extensions that are, ironically enough, blocked on Firefox… Though thats only one website in particular.

- Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible 2 months ago:
Banning everyone takes a bot, which is rate limited. Same with a trash flood.
Automod though, you can easily set to do things like remove all new comments and submissions, remove stuff on one report (which lets you use the argument no one really believes that you’re letting the users have more control.), allow new submissions but lock every comment section, or allow only select users to post, whether based on karma, username, flair, etc.
Possibilities are endless really.
