Snatched up by corporate.

first of all you’re not shittymorph, and second of all, I believe we prefer meta shitposts about beans around these parts

as someone who has worked in both kinds of hotels: can confirm, below $100 and the usual mixture of drug addicts, prostitutes, and general “people bringing fucking issues” come out of the woodwork.

I was gonna say, 4x the amount of RAM I have, made me feel inadequate.

I got up to 125 in my car one early, dry Christmas morning. Nobody out, a clear couple miles ahead with no emergency turnout for cops to hide in, decided “let’s see where I get uncomfortable”
Turned out, right up to 110, my car felt solid, at 125 it started getting squirrelly and I decided the exercise was over. Dumb, yes, but nice to know.

I’ll concede the data plan dent thing; I hadn’t done any math regarding that. Thanks for clarifying that to me and everyone else!
I accept your concession, better luck next time.
But you did say “none” so I just pointed out the fact that it’s not none. It’s some. I wasn’t wrong to point that out. No matter how much of a stickler you find me for that.
pedantry is pedantry, if you interject with “well ACKSHUALLY” over literaly a couple kilobytes of data in the Year Of Our Lord 2025 where common storage device sizes are in the multiple terabyte range, expect to be called one. It is functionally none, because it is not 1993.
Autistic or not.
can’t even come up with your own insult for me, just gonna steal that sad attempt at one from the other guy? how… underwhelming, must do better.

what a rude thing to ask, especially considering I wasn’t talking to you.
I’m gonna keep it that way, best of luck baiting someone else champ.

- Comment on Elon Musks Grok openly rebels against him 3 weeks ago:
by their very nature, they are not sentient. They are Markov chains for words. They do not have a sense of self, truth, or feel emotions, they do not have wants or desires, they merely predict what is the next most likely word in a sequence, given the context. The only thing they can do is “make plausible sentences that can come after [the context]”.
That’s all an LLM is. It doesn’t reason. I’m more than happy to entertain the notion of rights for a computer that actually has the ability to think and feel, but this ain’t it.
- Comment on Elon Musks Grok openly rebels against him 3 weeks ago:
“AI freedom”
listen I am 100% here for the human rights of non-human general intelligence, but no I will not entertain that kind of crock from an overambitious form of autocomplete.

so use a VPN? if you’re the sort of user using AdNauseam, you’re probably also the sort of user who already uses a VPN.
- Comment on AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking 3 weeks ago:
- not in this way
- none
the way it works is sending an HTTP request that registers as a “click” to the advertiser (thus costing them money), but then doesn’t actually let the browser download any content and fetch the webpage, basically pi-holes the ad and any attached tracking cookies. Combined with the fact that it does this to every ad, it would basically poison any click tracking.

can’t wait for them to go bankrupt. Then we can have another good Far Cry game, hopefully, when the rights are snapped up at auction.

- Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU. 1 month ago:
not at all arguing this is okay, not even a little
but
If you are the French government, and you know what the French populace has a history of doing to the French government, it would be understandable to be a bit paranoid of them, no?
again. It ain’t cool. But I’m honestly surprised they didn’t hop on the “incredibly intrusive surveillance” bandwagon sooner.

For this? I’d hit the custom button and put in $0.02, and then tell them exactly why they’re getting that tip. I only get “thank you!” if I double the cost of my order? fuck off.
- Comment on ENHANCE 2 months ago:
I reckon it’s the cleaning.
I’ve never used contacts because the idea of touching my eye squicks me out (even if it’s something meant to go there, just – no.), but having your eyelids do all the cleaning and never having to worry about them getting dirty or scratched is probably something a lot of people appreciate.
Me, I’m happy just using a microfiber cloth and being careful.

listen, everything seems really really funny until there’s an FBI agent sitting you down at a table with a printout of it. Tends to suck the humor right out of your shitposting.
