- Comment on It was nicer when Duke Nukem Forever was famous for never coming out 1 day ago:
Think no one regretted it more than Gabe from Penny Arcade. www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2010/09/08/the-wager
- Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme 5 days ago:
OK. We start at the beginning. 10000 years before our current date, a boy is born in Anatolia that will one day become known as The Emperor… Wait perhaps we should start 30 million years ago since you also should know about the war in heaven, the fall of the C’tan and the fate on a race known as the Necrotyr.
- Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme 1 week ago:
I would love for my 40k groups five year group chat to be leaked. My theories about Alpharius is valid I tell you.
Nononono, do it go! We haven’t even gotten to the part with Valdor, and the Emperor yet.
- Comment on The Enshittification of 3D Printers – Are We Losing What Made Them Great? 1 week ago:
Some people want to 3d print for a hobby, while some want 3d printers as a hobby. You are the second type, while out of the box printers are for the first type.
Personally what kept me away from 3d printing my own terrain for miniature wargames is that I don’t have time for another hobby. I just can’t be bothered with endless fiddling with settings, temperatures, speed, and all that. Buy I understand your feelings
- Comment on Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids 1 week ago:
Are you a male adult performer?
- Comment on A funny thing in Iran is how they repackage old PlayStation consoles 4 weeks ago:
I have an attention span of a 2 year old, so I never really finish games. But that one of te few to hold my attention all the way through. Even if I initially hates the movement and controls at first since I had expected a FFVII style game
- Comment on Teslas turn toxic as sales crash in Europe and the UK | EV sales in the region are growing, but not for Tesla 1 month ago:
Read that Tesla pushes December in Norway for padding end of year numbers, resulting in a stagnant January. I think that concutive stagnant months is what would indicate how sick we are with Musk
- Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 2 months ago:
IG Farben, Krupp, Thyssen, Boss, Porsche and the mist goes on and on and on. Fuck I suspect that even my own grandfather “had stripes” (slang for collaboration with Nazis without yourself being proclaimed nazi) and he even fought them during the invasion of Norway.
- Comment on Apple CEO Tim Cook Donating $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund 2 months ago:
None of these companies would touch Trump with a 10 foot pole in the situation wasn’t so dire. But he is the next president, and he is known to respond to stuff like this. Bend knee, kiss his ass and carry a huge wad of cash. This is just the cost of doing business, and even if a vocal minority cries out most people still buy iPhones, Teslas and shop at Amazon and Wal-Mart.
- Comment on I believe him on a factual level, but not on an emotional level. 2 months ago:
I don’t think there much else. Some viking history perhaps. Over 400 years under Danish tyranny followed by 80 years by Swedish rule sort of made sure nothing happened from 1200 to 1900
- Comment on I believe him on a factual level, but not on an emotional level. 2 months ago:
The made up spelling might be the Norwegian, or me fucking up as I also speak/read English and german. Flemish boggles the mind for me since I can read it with context, but it’s incomprehensible when spoken.
- Comment on I believe him on a factual level, but not on an emotional level. 2 months ago:
Am I the only non Belgian to enjoy Belgium? Decent cities like Brügge, Ghent, Antwerpen, Leuven and Brussels. Trappist Beer, Kriek, Moules frites. Excellent comics like Spirou, Tintin and Thorgal. And as a Norwegian I can relate to a football team full of stars that don’t win shit. (Norway can never even qualify dor anything)
It shows that I have only ever been in Flandern, but guess there are stuff in Vallonia to.
- Comment on turned them into their final form! 4 months ago:
In Norway they are sold as fast food and are called rollerburger
- Comment on Opera explains how it plans to keep uBlock Origin support as Google Chrome disables it 5 months ago:
I stopped using Opera the second it wasn’t Norwegian. I use Librewolf on desktop, Waterfox on mobile and Vivaldi as the “clean” browser when something k. Waterfox/Librewolf fucks up an important webpage I have to use
- Comment on Apple quietly deletes nearly a hundred VPNs that allowed Russians to get around censorship 5 months ago:
Ofc they have the power to do so. John Deere did just that with stolen machines (incidentally underlining that you actually rent their machines) My point is that you buy the iphone hardware, and the use is not a service. And the possibility of bricking it at Apples, Samsung or Huawei whim is for me dystopian. Access to software, storefronts and internet pages is slightly different in my opinion.
- Comment on Apple quietly deletes nearly a hundred VPNs that allowed Russians to get around censorship 5 months ago:
While I understand your idea, thats a level of censorship in the hands of a private company that is so cyber punk dystopian that it makes William Gibson cry.
Imagine your phone will start playing the Chinese anthem before it sends your dickpicks to your mother
