- Comment on Steam payment headaches grow as PayPal is no longer usable for much of the world: Valve hopes to bring it back in the future, 'but the timeline is uncertain' 1 week ago:
Okay, steam cards it is then.
- Comment on Feeling insecure about going to a 'girlie pop' concert as a 30 year old man, am i overthinking it? 3 weeks ago:
They would never film you if they think you’re grumpy, because they’re hired by the venue, the labels and artists, and it would be considered bad PR for them.
The cameras ususually only catch the front rows anyways, and the concert is way different and more relaxed when you arent in the mosh pit.

Yep, autotune rappers have been pushed for years, and I always suspected it’s to make the transition to AI music easier.
- Comment on Rockstar Games Plans Age Verification For GTA Online 3 weeks ago:
The same parents that allow their children to play these games now will allow them to play then.
This will just make me not want to play these games.
- Comment on The curse of ‘Disco Elysium’, the greatest RPG ever made 3 weeks ago:
Possible.
I experienced it as an impossible puzzle to not die in the first hour. I went with a different approach each time, rolled a couple of 1s and died.
- Comment on The curse of ‘Disco Elysium’, the greatest RPG ever made 3 weeks ago:
I love reading, but I couldnt get into Disco Elysium besides many attempts, so I disagree with your statement that I love it because I love reading.
Maybe I don’t like starting a book over and over again because the dice decided to.

What does your wife say about this? Is it better to not take those things even when not pregnant?
- Comment on Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database 5 weeks ago:
That’s pretty much what google says they use AI for, for structuring.
Thanks for your insight.

“Why not”
Because I only have to support my own body instead of growing another. On the other hand, whatever can harm an embryo because it is much smaller than me, will in a way also harm me.
I wont need Vitamin B-12 as much as a pregnant woman, but it wont harm to stay vary of things that might harm the child.
Just to add to my initial comment. There’s studies about the most common sweeteners, but they put the risk at low, but wont recommend anything because the datatset is too low to come to a real conclusion. So it might not even be problematic. Would you risk it though?
- Comment on Common sugar substitute shown to impair brain cells, boost stroke risk 5 weeks ago:
There’s no recommendation against honey while pregnant, only for infants
- Comment on Common sugar substitute shown to impair brain cells, boost stroke risk 5 weeks ago:
I have a rule of thumb. If experts and doctors recommend pregnant woman to not eat or drink anything, it’s probably better to stay away from it.
- Comment on Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database 5 weeks ago:
Don’t you have any security concerns with sending all your code to some companies servers? My Boss wouldn’t be pleased if I send anything that’s deemed a company secrets over unencrypted channels.
- Comment on Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database 5 weeks ago:
What are they helpfuls tools for then? A study showed that they make experienced developers 19% slower.
- Comment on Why are there so many german communities on Lemmy? 5 weeks ago:
German community was huge on reddit. There were also a lot of users that were unhappy with the biggest german subreddit and reddit in general.
I guess quite a lot jumped ship when reddit started banning third party apps.
- Comment on Cloudflare wants Google to change its AI search crawling. Google likely won’t. 1 month ago:
Why did they copy the soundcloud logo?
- Comment on YouTube is getting rid of its Trending page and Trending Now list 1 month ago:
Shorts are still there, but now they started cluttering the subscription page with community posts.
It’s bad, but especially when you browse in landscape Mode on a phone. They get blown up so big you have to scroll like 3 pages for one post, and there’s a lot of them.

Ketamine took its toll
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 1 month ago:
Kpop is extremely explpoitive to the artists, much worse than game development.
- Comment on The Cause of Grok’s Increasing Antisemitism? Apparently, Two Lines of Code (Update: One of the Lines of Code Was Removed) 1 month ago:
To be politically correct should only be relevant to politicians imo.
I would say for everyone else it’s “is he an asshole”.
- Comment on Musk's AI firm deletes posts after chatbot praises Hitler 1 month ago:
In the end it doesn’t even matter. Autism can explain some behavior but should never be used as an excuse.
- Comment on Musk's AI firm deletes posts after chatbot praises Hitler 1 month ago:
He’s self diagnosed.
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 1 month ago:
It’s a brillant device, I often use it more than my PC.
It gives me the feeling that playing the Gameboy as a kid gave me. The switch would only make my hands cramp because the controls are for small hands.
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 1 month ago:
I got some good rechargeable AA for my controllers about three years ago and will never go back. I have one pair more than controllers and I always have a charged pair read to switch out if needed.
I got 2500mAh batteries from duracell and the charge lasts for days of activity on my xbox controllers. Longer than my PS4 controllers with integrated battery for sure.
- Comment on What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol 1 month ago:
To not connect it to the Internet would probably help.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 1 month ago:
Yes, it’s considered Red meat because of it’s Myoglobin content.

Isnt a crash in the housing market a good thing for the average person?
The crisis happened because everyone got credits to buy a house, even if they shouldnt, and banks made money by betting against them ever paying it back. This caused a huge bubble that had to burst.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 studio begs rioting fans for benefit of the doubt after leadership axed by owner Krafton: 'The team that has been working on the game day-to-day ... remains completely unchanged' 1 month ago:
They should just answer one question: Will Subnautica 2 have microtransactions under the New leadership?
- Comment on The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact 1 month ago:
It needs way more people l, because I guess a lot of people from all over the world used VPNs to sign the petition and will be nullified.

I think there’s a reason they hid the prompt in the screenshot of OP.
