- Comment on Star Citizen Just Had its Biggest Crowdfunding Day Ever With $3.5 Million in 24 Hours 11 months ago:
The people who are playing Star Citizen are not the same people who are voting for Trump…weird comparison to attempt.
- Comment on Brain Brew: How Daily Coffee Habits May Affect Brain Plasticity and Learning - Neuroscience News 11 months ago:
Well, I’m fucked then
- Comment on Flipboard is ditching X, shifting to Mastodon instead - The Verge 11 months ago:
I used Flipboard way back when tablets were a new thing and it was clearly designed as a tablet experience. I didn’t click with it and I still don’t fully understand what it is but I’m surprised they’re still around.

- Comment on Were can find a list of Safe Sites where buy Seam Games/Keys/Bundles?? 1 year ago:
IMO not a great option for Steam Deck. It’s certainly doable, and excellent for PC, but it’s been too much of a pain to run on Steam Deck.
- Comment on Microsoft develops ultra durable glass plates that can store several TBs of data for 10000 years 1 year ago:
Good point, maybe. But yeah, this isn’t rewritable media, this is archival data storage.
- Comment on Microsoft develops ultra durable glass plates that can store several TBs of data for 10000 years 1 year ago:
I don’t think it’s that type of “durable.” I think they mean you can read from it forever without having to rewrite the data, which currently isn’t true of platter and solid state storage. This isn’t screen technology, though, it’s storage technology, so I’m not sure the comparison is useful.
- Comment on AirVPN discloses server seized in 2015 1 year ago:
I dunno, if my VPN came out and said “heads up, one of our servers was seized and you have literally nothing to worry about because nothing is stored or logged on our servers,” that’s good news IMO. Obviously the best case scenario is not having it seized, but sometimes that’s not possible, and it’s a mark of a good VPN when the consequences to you of a server being seized are the same as if it wasn’t (i.e., none).

Fuck Apple, let the man speak.
- Comment on ‘Groundbreaking’ bionic arm that fuses with user’s skeleton and nerves could advance amputee care 1 year ago:
Is it going to be insanely expensive and not covered by insurance?
- Comment on ENDLESS™ Dungeon has released on Steam 1 year ago:
What’s the difference between Endless Dungeon and Dungeon Of The Endless?
- Comment on Pretty fly for a Venn diagram 1 year ago:
Fly knife?
- Comment on I'm surprised there's not more cartoons with mimes as protagonists. It would probably cut down animation costs and you wouldn't need a voice actor. 1 year ago:
Funny enough, “cutting down on costs” and “not having a voice actor” isn’t actually what makes a good cartoon.
- Comment on Yes they're real, and they're spectacular. 1 year ago:
Aren’t these Kanye boots?
- Comment on IOC suspends Russian Olympic Committee for incorporating Ukrainian sports regions 1 year ago:
The suspension does not immediately affect any Russians who are returning to compete in international sporting events as neutral athletes.
So, nothing really changes

Worse…soy milk!
- Comment on Milk 1 year ago:
Oat milk is also the best for the environment by an unironic country mile.
- Comment on How a 23-year-old first-time Firefox coder fixed a 22-year-old bug 1 year ago:
- Comment on xkcd : Timeline of Temperature Changes on Earth 1 year ago:
Very informative but you see, science doesn’t convince the anti-science crowd, pretty much by definition.
- Comment on Results of the "Can you tell which images are AI generated?" survey 1 year ago:
It’d be interesting to also see the two non-AI images the most people thought were.
- Comment on xkcd #657: Movie Narrative Charts 1 year ago:
If anything, the chart is simplified.
- Comment on You can’t get rid of it, you can only hide it: Microsoft imposes controversial Windows Backup on users 1 year ago:
What’s wrong with having a built-in backup feature?
- Comment on Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL? 1 year ago:
“Duck tape” actually has a longer history than “duct tape.” While there is also branded Duck™ tape, duck tape, as in adhesive cotton duck, has been around since the 1800s or so.
- Comment on Phones should have FM radio again 1 year ago:
Every time I get in a car without Bluetooth or an aux and have to listen to the radio, I’m quickly reminded that I’d actually prefer to listen to road noise than ads and turn it off.
