- Comment on Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows? 6 hours ago:
Maybe I’ll go and pick their brains I have had numerous failures but maybe I need to be using something other than VMware or something.

Super hot.
- Comment on Can Mac apps be emulated and run on Windows? 7 hours ago:
I have tried and failed this too many times to count because I have an AMD processor.

Use Firefox + uBlock Origin on desktop and on mobile. Only watch YouTube via Firefox. Never see these bullshit ads again.
- Comment on Why is it "shower thoughts" and not "shitter thoughts"? 1 day ago:
This property of water dates back to the story of Archimedes in the tub shouting “Eureka!”
- Comment on Common inhalers carry heavy climate cost, study finds 3 days ago:
The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that inhalers used by US patients with commercial insurance and the government-run programs Medicaid and Medicare generated 24.9 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent over the decade.
So a drop in the bucket compared to corporate pollution, eh?
My god, hasn’t anyone considered the damage being done by keeping people alive and healthy! /s
three types of inhalers used to treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) between 2014 and 2024.
Oh and a bonus, it’s tied to diseases whose numbers increase with increased pollution.
But nevermind, it’s all the poor schmucks who are trying to stay alive who are the problem. /s
- Comment on And I won't delete them either for nostalgia reasons 3 days ago:
Pretty sure deleting interns is frowned upon anyway.
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 5 days ago:
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Further especially with powers granted from an injectable serum, the kind of people naturally drawn to it will already be the kind of people seeking power for their own ends.

- Comment on Unified Theory of American Reality 6 days ago:
Smacks of condescension, elitism, and historical naivety
Sorry, socially engineered infantilization is just an explanation, not a justification.

Poopies.
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 1 week ago:
The thing about this shit is…
Microsoft, like Google, is now a user-data driven company and they have already made loss/profit ratio analysis on this long before they released the price increase. They’re absolutely banking on people cancelling but making up the difference and then some from the people who stay.
For a thought experiment lets consider how many subscribers they were reported to have in Feburary: 34 million. Let’s assume that everyone is paying for the highest tier to make the math easier. So current income would be 34 million x $20 a month and thats $680 million a month. 34 million x $30 a month is $1.02 billion. The difference is $340 million a month. Let’s divide that by $30 a month. That gets us about 11,333,333. So they can hemorage 11 million users and still break even.
The math doesn’t bode well for us who vote with our wallets.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 1 week ago:
Look I know Bandcamp got a bad rap for being bought and sold a few times but they still have Bandcamp Fridays and that coupled with my own streaming server at home seems like the ticket to me.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I mean cartoon physics are totally in play here and this guy ain’t git no fuckin arms they’re just hanging on space so it seems reasonable (all things considered) that his reach is unreal.
- Comment on How to manage docker compose apps? 1 week ago:
Immich is a more touchy beast because it includes a mobile app and the mobile app and the docker container need to generally be either the same version, or within a few versions of one another. There was a while where I forgot to update the server for a while and the mobile app kept being updated on my phone and stopped backing up photos because it could no longer communicate with the server.
- Comment on How to manage docker compose apps? 1 week ago:
In the docker folder with the docker-compose.yml:
docker compose pull && docker compose up -dAs others have said, for large groups of containers it’s helpful to use Watchtower.
Immich in particular warns to backup your database before an upgrade.
Oh and after upgrades to remove any dangling images which sometimes take up a lot of space:
docker image prune - Comment on I am a solo developer creating a horror game where you can pet your cat to restore sanity! Here is the new trailer for The 18th Attic! Let me know your feedback :) 1 week ago:
You had me at “pet the cat.”
- Comment on True staple of the format 1 week ago:
Counterpoint: A lot of people legitimately don’t know how to find out shit on their own and their learning style is rooted in having teachers and tutors help them along to understanding. Needing someone to teach them how to find out shit on their own might legitimately be part of the path that they need help with.
- Comment on True staple of the format 1 week ago:
If it’s not hard to find a source, it’s not hard to provide a source. You’re not doing other people’s work for them by being kind enough to provide evidence for your assertions. They’re less likely to hear what you have to say if you just brush them off and say “it’s common sense” or “it’s easy to find just search it yourself.”

We only get one ride in this rollercoaster and half of us want to make the ride living hell for the rest of us.
- Comment on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme crushes Apple M4, Intel, and AMD in new benchmarks 1 week ago:
Also while Linux is not the same as UNIX, interacting with them is much more similar than, say, Windows. They use a lot of the same conventions and managing macOS can be a lot like managing Linux if you want it to be.
- Comment on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme crushes Apple M4, Intel, and AMD in new benchmarks 1 week ago:
Not who you asked, but at bare minimum macOS continues to be certified UNIX.
