So stupid. Wasting potential personal time for such theatrics.
They should take inspiration from my coworkers, who don’t even bother to pretend. - Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 5 days ago:
It enables quick window switching with no flickering. This may be a strictly Windows issue.

Pigs in blanket in the UK would mean cocktail sausage in bacon or pastry
It could be both, but I’ve never come across it - Comment on Bossware rises as employers keep closer tabs on remote staff 1 week ago:
That’s crazy. I’d actually rather work. Or take a shit. Or do literally anything else.

I remember OO was incredibly painful to get running. When I finally managed, I just tore down the whole thing and never looked back.

Except regular people will struggle to afford food out whilst these will be cleaning rich people’s yachts.
- Comment on Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues 2 weeks ago:
I use them as a DDNS, and a first line of defence.
It seems very wasteful, doesn’t it?
The truth is that I often need to access these from a device that doesn’t have local access to the server, such as a company laptop, or a phone on mobile network.
This is also given for anyone outside of my house.
As such, I often don’t bother setting up local access, except for specific services that are critical or use a lot of bandwidth that can go locally.Not to mention password and bookmark management, which is a little part, but it can get out of hand (I have about 50 services/front-ends).
TLDR: Your can use cloudflare or alternatives with fallback on local for most services, if you set it up that way
- Comment on Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues 2 weeks ago:
I have wireguard, but I don’t expose most services locally, so it wouldn’t save me in this case.
Thanks though - Comment on Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues 2 weeks ago:
Man what’s not impacted?
I host my own shit and I couldn’t access it from my own house - Comment on Open Source Blackout 2 weeks ago:
That’s not quite what I meant.
I’m talking about the (potential) relationship between a gov and repo maintainers, and whether that would mean less freedom for the developers, since govs are typically required to ensure tax money is spent on legitimate purposes.
As I said though, it was just a thought. Things like research grants exist, it could work the same. - Comment on Open Source Blackout 2 weeks ago:
This is true, but i fear it would open up a can of worms potentially, where govt oversight would be required or demanded to oversee the investment (people doing no good just trying to cash in). Maybe not.
- Comment on Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords 3 weeks ago:
Really? If I open github (for example) and select passkey login, I just need to press ok using Bitwarden.
- Comment on Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords 3 weeks ago:
Isn’t this optional? I use passkeys and have yet to be asked for anything else in addition to it.

God how can those tv menus be so slow… do they call home on every press of a button?? Infuriating
- Comment on What's a recent game you've tried playing that isn't worth the hype? 3 weeks ago:
Man I LOVE drg. A good team on a call made this the most fun I’ve had playing in recent years. Unfortunately, the population is lower and one may have trouble finding new players. Veterans are usually happy to help, but you’d need a patient one.

This is a Czech company, European
- Comment on Think Big, Print Bigger: Introducing the Prusa CORE One L! - Original Prusa 3D Printers 4 weeks ago:
This type of printer isn’t good for minis, you should consider resin, but know that it is a big investment all in cost, space and effort
- Comment on Here’s what ads on your $2,000 Samsung smart fridge will look like 5 weeks ago:
I can see genuine reason for a fridge to be smart.
Check what’s in whilst shopping, automatic recipe suggestions, notifications for product potentially going out of date…
All of that would be nice, if fully automated, but that would require a ton of cameras and sensors, and frankly doesn’t seem worth it yet for the prices that would yield, even assuming the integration is good and offers local-only option (for proxying or vpns). - Comment on Oh no my harvest is too bountiful 5 weeks ago:
If i were a nuclear engineer, everyone around me wouldn’t hear the end of it
- Comment on New Rules Could Force Tesla to Redesign Its Door Handles. That’s Harder Than It Sounds 1 month ago:
Yeah let’s see, if the handle would have to be a different shape, they may need a different cutout for the door, different handle moulds, different mechanical parts, updated electronics… does anyone have a fucking clue how difficult it is to program one of those robotic arms? How expensive new moulds are? Any other potential knock-on effects this may have on the internal design?

- Comment on Reddit stock falls for second day as references to its content in ChatGPT responses plummet 1 month ago:
I’ve had to start calling it AI because most people don’t know what LLMs are, noone cares to go through the explanation, including myself.
I’m afraid that, as these things go, AI has gained a new meaning by popular use, rather than the original meaning of the acronym.
No point fighting it anymore.Maybe we just need to adjust and start saying GAI (generative ai). It has a nice ring to it too.
