- Comment on 3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much space 2 days ago:
But if it were an NVMe slot… That’d be juicy.
- Comment on I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it? 5 days ago:
You can die any number of ways at any time for any reason. Why fixate on one? Probably more likely to die in an automobile accident or some mundane bullshit than nuclear war.
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 days ago:
That’s like saying it’s just as easy to wash your hands regardless of how filthy they are. The more grime, the more scrubbing, due to layering.

Regardless of immune system integrity, the area around the toilet is objectively easier to clean with lid down flushing; cuts down on micro droplets.

Do you consider your life difficult because cleaning your bathroom is part of life?
- Comment on My N64 game collection. Not the most expansive but it is a lot of fun. 2 weeks ago:
Great choices in there
- Comment on Someone has a LOT of dusty computers 2 weeks ago:
I thought canned air contains bitterants and crap to make it unpalatable.
- Comment on North Korean infiltrator caught working in Amazon IT department thanks to lag — 110ms keystroke input raises red flags over true location 3 weeks ago:
I have no idea what that means.
- Comment on Why does everyone put celery in soup stock? 3 weeks ago:
It does, but I only really noticed it first when using celery salt in my tuna sandwich mix. That’s probably the easiest way to spot it that I can think. Make a can of tuna and add a lil celery salt and you’re like halfway to a proper tuna salad taste just with that alone.
- Comment on LG Update Installs Unremovable Microsoft Copilot on Smart TVs, Ignites Backlash 3 weeks ago:
There’s probably a procedure to load firmware from USB. Maybe.
- Comment on Oracle made a $300 billion bet on OpenAI. It's paying the price. 3 weeks ago:
This guy says he wants us to shoot him!
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 2 months ago:
It’s just friendly rivalry, anyone who is experiencing actual hatred is unhinged and needs help. It’s mostly just bluster. I’d say there’s more animosity between fans of sports teams than gamers on different platforms.
- Comment on An ex-Intel CEO’s mission to build a Christian AI: ‘hasten the coming of Christ’s return’ 2 months ago:
Good, maybe this will somehow force Christians to actually act like Christ wanted them to.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 2 months ago:
That’s a good point too. Perhaps there’s more interstellar communication going on out there with the likes of Nova Core and other technologically advanced space faring groups that word would spread. Surely people would be curious as hell as to why half of life turned to dust randomly and go looking for answers.
I imagine many societies with no definitive answer would probably end up in religious hysteria.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 2 months ago:
If you want to try and rationalize it, I think he might say that the psychological scarring is necessary for all existing societies to change to more sustainable models, or risk another such culling in the future. Due to exponential growth of life, doubling resources, especially while societies continue to abuse those resources wouldn’t probably wouldn’t do anything long term (in his mind).
I am skeptical if such psychological damage can make enough long term inter generational impact, but hey it’s a theory.

Someone didn’t take physics!

Banned her bodyguard :: chefs kiss ::
Great job Twitch, real A+ quality work! Hope the entire company goes bankrupt.
- Comment on one bright second 2 months ago:
Probably my favorite short story. This is another one of my favorites, definitely more obscure:

What the fuck is this data trying to say?
- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 3 months ago:
There’s a non insignificant amount of women dating only for free meals, and a lot of them expect men to pay for any number of friends. A lot of guys have opted for lower cost or zero cost first dates, like walks to screen for this.
- Comment on "I’m Canceling My Subscription": Xbox Players Call to "Boycott" Game Pass "Hard" Over 50% Price Increase As Microsoft’s Website Crashes from Mass Cancellations 3 months ago:
They make sense if you play through enough titles. If you have a pass and only ever play one game, that’s probably a bad idea.
- Comment on 3 months ago:
Disney directly acted against Kimmel, caving to political pressure from the government, a wanton act of government censorship. What did Disney do to Palestine? Bomb them?
- Comment on US | White House tries to tamp down corporate panic for high-skill visa holders after last-minute overhaul 3 months ago:
I actually had this idea myself, with the idea being that corporations should basically pay a tax for H1B if they are going to keep hiring H1B over domestic workers. However, my idea was tied to hours worked, so they can’t exploit them with unfair workloads.
- Comment on What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am? 3 months ago:
Yeah I personally think Q is a catch-all and makes additional letters redundant. I don’t even know what the full acronym is anymore.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 3 months ago:
Probably between 1-2 months for me.
- Comment on LGBTQ+ Americans consider move to Canada to escape Trump: ‘I’m afraid of living here’ 3 months ago:
I’m not sure it’s as easy as people think to move to another country.
- Comment on Practice makes perfect 4 months ago:
I decided to play Overwatch until I could zen out and exude peace and cooperation. The idea that a game and the people playing it could make me irrationally angry made me rue my lack of self regulation. Took time and patience but I did get there! I think patience is the key word there. Patience isn’t a strength of mine with the ADHD and whatnot.

I’m a little fuzzy on the part where it “turns to rock.”
- Comment on Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple 4 months ago:
I don’t know about you but I drive over 5-10km regularly. For a short miserable stretch my daily commute was 90 miles. Buying household groceries or anything of size sounds annoying or impossible on bike. And then there’s work tools and whatnot that many professionals keep in vehicle.
- Comment on Microsoft Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward 4 months ago:
Idiots will still not know where anything is saved. Catering to the technologically illiterate has made society way more illiterate.
