- Comment on 'End of 10' to Windows 10 Users: The Environment Wants You to Use Linux 26 minutes ago:
I play XBox games on my computer. My computer is more than 10x faster then my XBox so games often play way better.

Show me how to use the Xbox app in Linux and I will switch today.
- Comment on ‘My Property Tax Went From $15K to a Life-Altering $91K a Year’ 2 days ago:
I’m not entirely unsympathetic since property values have skyrocketed ridiculously mostly due to the super rich and hedge funds buying up housing like it’s candy.
However, these people got an assessment for doing some renovations without replacing the walls or a major overhaul of the property, then promptly added a whole second floor to the building when they said they were just replacing the roof. They gambled that the assessors wouldn’t take note and lost.
- Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game 2 days ago:
I think the point is that they often eventually remove Denuvo and it becomes a moot point.

Good thing I don’t use android auto either then I guess.

Three words… Butter Coffee Enema
- Comment on quick health tip 4 days ago:
That’s not bitterness, that astringent. That’s a whole different thing. And generally it means you’re brewing your tea too long.
- Comment on quick health tip 4 days ago:
try adding a pinch of salt to your regular coffee
This literally takes away one of coffee’s biggest flavor enhancers which is its slightly bitter taste. If you do this, you might as well be drinking fucking tea.
- Comment on quick health tip 4 days ago:
Okay but the last time I checked that wasn’t the type of coffee. 🫤
- Comment on Texas Senate passes bill requiring solar plants to provide power at night 5 days ago:
The bill specifically says they cannot use battery. Which is literally the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. This bill was written by the coal and gas lobby.
If this passes the solar and wind companies should simply close up shop and tell Texans to buy all their power from coal and gas and see how far that gets them. These dipshits will only learn through pain.
- Comment on Texas Senate passes bill requiring solar plants to provide power at night 5 days ago:
If this passes the solar companies should close up shop and abandon Texas. Head for a state with as much sun but less stupid.
Leave the assholes to their fate.

Justice League Unlimited, animated series from the mid aughts, for me. The Question played by Jeffrey Combs was amazing!

On the Internet, where no one can hear you fart…

According to Electroboom Australia is doing it right too.

Oh sweet summer child.
- Comment on Apex Legends writer gets laid off 24 hours after the character she wrote is revealed, because that's what the games industry in 2025 looks like 2 weeks ago:
and the US is not an easy place to unionize in.
Moreso now than ever before.
- Comment on An oldie but a goodie 3 weeks ago:
I don’t even care if this is fake or not, this gave me a good laugh.
- Comment on Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market 3 weeks ago:
No, but don’t you understand? Tesla is not a car company, it’s an AI company. They were just making cars while developing AI systems. So it’s fine if they stop selling cars. So just keep buying TSLA stock and everything will work out great!

- Comment on China now faces 245% Trump tariff 4 weeks ago:
That’s ok. Neither can they.
- Comment on China now faces 245% Trump tariff 4 weeks ago:
No, they walked that back almost immediately. The tariffs are still on everything.
- Comment on China now faces 245% Trump tariff 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think Chinese politicians actually laugh. They might outwardly chuckle but I doubt they find anything truly funny. My bet is their next move will be to take Thailand. They can’t directly invade but they can block exports. Trump is initiating World War 3.
- Comment on China now faces 245% Trump tariff 4 weeks ago:
Your point is fairly good but you need to recheck your math. At 145% a $10 product will be $24.50. At 245% it’s gonna be $34.50. And that doesn’t even take into account additional federal, state, and local taxes.
- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 4 weeks ago:
The flip side of that is that instances large and small outside of the influence of the government can do as they please and people can use other means, like VPNs, to access them.
- Comment on Nintendo confirms $90 price for full Breath of the Wild experience on Switch 2 4 weeks ago:
They have literally been doing this with every older game they’ve ever produced. New system? New larger price to play on the new system.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk would like to ‘delete all IP law’ | TechCrunch 4 weeks ago:
IIRC the original US copyright law as written by the founders was 25 years or so. The extensions on that have all been in the last 70 years or so due to mega corps like Disney.
The problem with Musk and Dorsey is that they want the copyright laws to apply to them but no one else. “Rules for thee but not for me” mentality of the wealthy.

Thank you. The picture they chose to use is of a butter that we actually buy and had me a bit worried for a moment and you saved me a frantic internet search.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 5 weeks ago:
I can honestly see a use case for this. But without backing it up with some form of technical understanding, I think you’re just asking for trouble.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 5 weeks ago:
If you are believing what those things are popping out wholesale without double-checking to see if they’re feeding you fever dreams you are an absolute fool.
I don’t think I’ve seen a single statement come out of an LLM that hasn’t had some element of daydreamy nonsense in it. Even small amounts of false information can cause a lot of damage.
- Comment on Facebook Pushes Its Llama 4 AI Model to the Right, Wants to Present “Both Sides” 5 weeks ago:
What exactly is the benefit of using an LLM? Why would I bother using one at all?
- Comment on Bots increase online user engagement but stifle meaningful discussion, study shows 5 weeks ago:
You realize that the only reason Lemmy hasn’t become so enshitified is because the user base is too small for the corpos to seriously target it yet. The day Lemmy has more than a million users the army of bots will not be too far behind.
