Turns out, that the hole in the ozone layer didn’t get repaired. In fact, it’s larger than it’s ever been and above the Antarctic. Antarctica is currently experiencing a mass die-off of animals.

The search bar is at the top of the screen. Click inside of it and it shows you what you can search. It’s dirt easy.
- Comment on Should I get an NES, Master System; or an Atari 7800? 8 months ago:
The 7800 had 59 games released for it, so for most it’s an irrelevant console. Being able to play 2600 games is nice, but not worth the $100 or so someone would charge you for the system. From a value perspective, the NES is a much better bang for your buck as it has a monster library of great games that have tons of replay value while the 2600 is an arcade machines with quaint single serving experiences.
- Comment on Should I get an NES, Master System; or an Atari 7800? 8 months ago:
Without any hesitation: the NES. Easily the best library out of all 3 systems, most intuitive game design, plus you can’t beat that feeling of inserting the cartridge like a VCR.
- Comment on Should I get an NES, Master System; or an Atari 7800? 8 months ago:
Mushy controller and not as good a library as NES, whose controller aged like fine wine. Why is the Master System in your opinion the best system out of the 3 and not the legendary NES?

I like the hi res ones he makes where it’s like 10 pages long logarithmic maps of the universe. Cool fuckin beans.
- Comment on Avast fined $16.5 million for ‘privacy’ software that actually sold users’ browsing data 8 months ago:
If the software is free, but not open source, it’s harvesting your data. How else do you think these companies stay in business?
- Comment on Killer drones pioneered in Ukraine are the weapons of the future 8 months ago:
Bombs strapped to remote controlled planes aren’t the weapons of the future. The American military has fucking autonomous robot dogs that carry machine guns and have thermal imaging sensors.

It was that way before Musk foolishly bought it.
- Comment on Who made more money with it, him or Prince? 8 months ago:
And he only started working in the late 80s. And only then very infrequently.

I think it’s a little higher than half.
- Comment on Microsoft's draconian Windows 11 restrictions will send an estimated 240 million PCs to the landfill when Windows 10 hits end of life in 2025 8 months ago:
This is such an old article at this point. PCs don’t get sent to the landfill because the OS isn’t supported anymore. That’s idiotic.

Right, but the privacy implications trump all of that for me.
- Comment on Menstruation cycle tracking app breached users' privacy, B.C. class-action lawsuit alleges 8 months ago:
Stop paying for something that could easily be done with a pencil and a regular paper calendar.
- Comment on Menstruation cycle tracking app breached users' privacy, B.C. class-action lawsuit alleges 8 months ago:
It’s 2024. People still assume apps installed on their phones aren’t siphoning every single 1 and 0 on your phone including your texts and recordings of your voice calls and then selling that data to a 3rd party advertising firm.
Why in FUCKS name would you put your menstrual cycle data on an app that some stranger made?
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
They should be so lucky to earn shit pay! Fucking starve!
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
This neglects the very real COL crisis we’re living in and the refusal for states to raise minimum wage to appropriate levels that allow these workers to actually survive. Demand better treatment of workers by not rewarding predatory businesses.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
The thing is, these restaurants make more than enough money to pay their workers more. The tip culture came during a time when rich people wanted to be sat first ahead of the poors in line, so they bribed the maitre d to be preferentially treated. Any restaurant owner talking about “razor thin margins” is full of shit. I’ve seen what restaurant owners drive. I’ve seen the vacations they take. No restaurant owner at a successful restaurant is in the breadlines.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
I don’t give my money to businesses that brutally exploit their workers. Period.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
Shitty brutal take that punishes unorganized young workers and rewards the person making their life harder.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
Yes it is. Knowingly rewarding shitty business practices and making it “nobody’s fault!” is literally your fault. The business has no incentive to change their policies if you keep spending money there.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
Stop rewarding the business owner with your money while they’re robbing their employees. You only exacerbate the situation with this mentality.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
It’s good to remember that no social media platform is a monolith of opinion.
- Comment on No tip 8 months ago:
If you continually buy product from a place that doesn’t pay their staff better, all you’re doing is rewarding the business owner and telling them to keep doing what they’re doing. It solves nothing and doesn’t get rid of tipping culture to keep giving these shitty businesses your money.
