- Comment on Rent is theft 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I mean I rent out my upstairs which is a legal accessory apartment in an owner occupied dwelling. I’ve had people arguing with me that I’m evil and should throw out my tenants or something or I have no idea what they think is reasonable. Because they are not reasonable, they are just mad and want to blame just like humans are apt to do.
- Comment on What's up with "Plex Servers"? 2 weeks ago:
I am the Plex guy in my group of friends and family. I think there’s probably a bit of confirmation bias at play. Being on Lemmy alone puts you into a niche area of Internet already, which is going to make hearing about geeky things like home labs more common.
So yes, they exist.
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 2 weeks ago:
Alcohol costs money. Middle class is dead. Probably will see a lot more people making homemade things.
- Comment on Yeah. I'm on the spectrum alright 3 weeks ago:
I think that’s more its bottom. I think it shakes its bottom as a mating dance or something.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Or pull the trash cans to the curb!
- Comment on How do you fight doomerism/pessimism in these trying times? 3 weeks ago:
Yep, specifically home defense, not carrying in the public. My duty to retreat ends at my house. But I don’t leave the house that much, usually work from home, if I was out there more often I may want to look into open or concealed carry laws in my locality, but all those things cost money. I’m already annoyed that I felt worried enough to buy a gun in the first place. Annoyed that I feel it’s prudent to dig up my passport card and carry it in my wallet despite me not traveling abroad.

I bought a gun.
- Comment on Rockstar baulks as a Charlie Kirk assassination mission is created in GTA Online, bans it and censors his name, but there's more out there 5 weeks ago:
Lol yeah, just watched that clip, crowd was like 3 ppl lol. Not a high effort recreation.

I loved that movie!
- Comment on ICE Wants to Go After Dissenters as well as Immigrants 5 weeks ago:
If they come to my door I’m going to see how immune they are to a Beretta 1301. Because I’m not getting disappeared to a third world country for being brown.
- 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 1 month 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? 1 month 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. 1 month 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.
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 1 month ago:
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. 1 month ago:
Great choices in there
- Comment on Someone has a LOT of dusty computers 1 month 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 2 months ago:
I have no idea what that means.
- Comment on Why does everyone put celery in soup stock? 2 months 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 2 months 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. 2 months ago:
This guy says he wants us to shoot him!
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 3 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’ 3 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? 3 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? 3 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.

Great job Twitch, real A+ quality work! Hope the entire company goes bankrupt.

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? 4 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.
