This guy grapefruits
- Comment on Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder 2 days ago:
Depending on the model of the pump, you can usually turn off the sound with one of the buttons on the right. The ones I have seen have four buttons on each side, and the second or third (or maybe bottom? I forget) button on the right will at least mute the ad. It’s worth a shot. It’s so obnoxious, it’s almost worth soaking it in gasoline.

Well hey, if it isn’t Mr. Manager of the banana stand
- Comment on Florida House Bill 1471, which broadens the definition of terrorist and calls for a domestic terrorist organization list, passed the Civil Justice and Claims Subcommittee by a vote of 14-3, 5 days ago:
Full text of the bill is here: housedocs.myfloridahouse.gov/…/loaddoc.aspx?FileN…
I haven’t had a chance to read it fully, just skimmed, but there is some hand-wringing about “Sharia Law.” Maybe someone who is less prone to terminal eye-rolling can give a good summary.

Can’t print your homework? Back to the mine with you!
- Comment on Los Angeles aims to ban single-use printer cartridges — new ordinance will target ink and toner that can't be properly recycled 1 week ago:
Community ink tanks, with pipelines to transmit the ink from where it is mined to substations, and on and on.
- Comment on YSK that a general strike is one of the most effective ways to push for change. There is a general strike in the works across the US for this Friday. 1 week ago:
I’m all for this. My Tuesday meetings are the most annoying.
- Comment on Denominator, go Mercator 2 weeks ago:
All right, well first I may need to see a doctor.
- Comment on Denominator, go Mercator 2 weeks ago:
Hmm, so the Mercator projection makes things look larger than they are? I think I’ve got an idea for another use for it… 😏

- Comment on They don't keep stats on prostitutes the way they do with football quarterbacks so we'll never know who the GOAT prostitute is 3 weeks ago:
In a certain sense, I think many of us do.
- Comment on MK Ultra 2: Electric Boogaloo 3 weeks ago:
I’m not part of the administration, but could I get in on that first part, before the fentanyl?
- Comment on I’ve hit a wall with tech. 3 weeks ago:
And yet, neither of those blues are quite… it, you know? Surely the next one will be.
- Comment on 'Signal' President and VP warn agentic AI is insecure, unreliable, and a surveillance nightmare 3 weeks ago:
The Signal Foundation did? Or Moxie Marlonspike, who I don’t think is technically involved with them anymore? (Not calling you out, I’m not particularly sure of his status there anymore.)
- Comment on Parents... Huh... 4 weeks ago:
Having an awkward talk awkwardly: ew. Having an awkward talk openly: also ew.
Good for your mother, though. I imagine you learned from her what many of us learned from the internet, books, media, peers, partners, and other sources.
- Comment on "The trolley made me fear for my life" 4 weeks ago:
More accurately, you’re standing behind the trolley, well off the tracks. Do you step forward, in front of the trolley, so the worst people can create an amorphous and constantly shifting narrative to justify you shooting the trolly driver?
- Comment on 'Worst in Show' CES products include AI refrigerators, AI companions and AI doorbells 4 weeks ago:
The hot new category at CES 2027 is going to be AI-powered auto door knockers.
- Comment on Someone, I'm thinking with multiple accounts, is downvoting EVERY comment I make. Mildly aggravating, mostly sad for someone like that. Can I find out who and just block them? 4 weeks ago:
falseWhite mass downvotes from accounts on at least three instances that I’ve seen. There are several others that I’ve noticed, but it hasn’t bothered me enough to look into it beyond that. I figure eventually these accounts will get banned for something or other, and it isn’t worth that much time or space in my head.
- Comment on US forces killed 55 Venezuelan, Cuban military personnel in Maduro raid: tolls 4 weeks ago:
That’s 55 military personnel, but the last I saw the NY Times was reporting at least 80 casualties. So that’s at least 25 civilians.

- Comment on Introducing Proton Sheets 2 months ago:
I’m actually pretty excited to have another product to try to motivate friends and family to leave Google behind. Maybe this will do it.
- Comment on I made a free & open-source cooking game with my friends 2 months ago:
This looks great! I’m looking forward to trying it out. Not many games have brought so much fun (and trauma) to friends and family as the Overcooked series. Just hearing the beep of the “food is ready, don’t let it spoil” sound spiked my blood pressure.
