as a radical colourblind: colour is a construction of the mind. Colour names make no sense. The only thing that matters is contrast.

I frown at people eating kale mixed in mashed potatoes or calling white bread with peanut butter a lunch.
Joke aside, the Dutch like good food and are way more open to other cuisines than most European countries.

- Comment on gabe³ half-life 3 confirmed 1 month ago:
I’m not an expert but I wanted to build my own gaming mini-PC. I followed this guide step by step, which was super useful because they were giving useful tips to make sure everything fits and works correctly: techbuyersguru.com/…/building-a-small-form-factor… (they update the config each month so the current guide is very different from 5 years ago) But, in retrospective, I think I should have gone for a bigger case because there is basically no other GPU that can fit this case anymore.

- Comment on Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales isn’t worried about Elon Musk’s Grokipedia: ‘Not optimistic he will create anything very useful right now’ 1 month ago:
Anybody going there to test “how bad it is” is giving them traffic, which they can use to brag about its success. Personally, I’d rather completely ignore it and disregard whoever mention it one day as a source, which will never happen hopefuly.
- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 1 month ago:
Berlin wall for sure. Earlier major events like Tchernobyl, famine in Ethiopia or the death of Coluche (iconic French comedian, pretty big thing in France), I mostly remember my parents reaction and discussions at home.

- Comment on Ok, boomer 1 month ago:
I’m 45, so not a boomer but already too old to get any respect from people in their 30’s (90% of my colleagues for example). Simply speaking about something they didn’t experience (reading a map, installing an OS, meeting the love of your life without a dating app…) gets me a “Ok Boomer” each time so what do I do? I just shut the fuck up. I’m not worried, they’ll be in my position very quickly.

- Comment on life purpose 2 months ago:
I worked in open spaces with more than 300 desks per floor aligned next to each other and no walls. You can’t talk, you are always making eye contact with people you don’t even know, your screen is constantly visible to the others and you can’t keep anything personal next to you. A cubicle would have been a dream in comparison.
- Comment on You just want to take a break and get a laugh. But some are just incapable of not taking everything so seriously 2 months ago:
Judging my life based on my shitpost-answering habits is outrageous. Nothing to laugh about here.
- Comment on kurzgesagt – AI Slop Is Killing Our Channel 2 months ago:
Watch the video? Duh. Thanks I watched it, and I know they don’t talk about how AI steals their art style (even though it’s really happening). I just pointed out the irony. The video also says they are usually enthusiastic about new tech but not this time.
I know this channel well enough to have seen countless videos praising fake tech like carbon capture and that’s why I have a problem with them. Am I allowed to have an opinion?
- Comment on kurzgesagt – AI Slop Is Killing Our Channel 2 months ago:
Kurzgesagt is annoyingly techno-solutionist but now that they are a big target of AI slop (their artistic style being heavily copied), they complain. That’s good I guess.

I heard this 1000 times, together with “the two best moments in the life of a boat owner are the day you buy it, and the day you sell it”
- Comment on whats your dumb purchases? 2 months ago:
I bought an old boat in Amsterdam (3000€), did some reparations (500€), replaced the engine (1500€), paid the local tax (600€ x 3years). I had fun with it. No regrets. Then I was moving back to my country, I couldn’t find a buyer… so I lowered the price to 1500€.
You were great, old boat. But not a great investment.

- Comment on Spotify will now let free users pick and play tracks | TechCrunch 3 months ago:
Call me a hardcore Spotify fan boy: I paid for Spotify for 15 years, I loved it, I even applied to worked for them. The product was great and unmatched so as I didn’t care about the problems, so many problems. things were getting progressively more problematic but in the end, King Gizzard who convinced me to quit. I don’t regret it a single minute. Fuck Spotify.

I love that he is telling something stupid, trying to validate it by using a fact that is probably the best way to prove how stupid it is.

stupid nazi-cowboy country. I’m tired of seeing my tv, cinema, internet… full of people with guns and shooting each others. Even your memes are problematic.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 3 months ago:
2005 was the best year: France had a hot and dry summer, so the grapes got a high concentration in sugars and tannins, which gave to most wines of that year an extreme deepness and complexity. Oh, I miss 2005 so much.
