- Comment on Winter 2026 Anime Season Kickoff and General Discussion Thread [2026, Week 02] 2 weeks ago:
Your description sold me. I watch anime to escape reality. If I want to watch a bunch of jerks being edgy and shitty, I can just turn on the news.
- Comment on Winter 2026 Anime Season Kickoff and General Discussion Thread [2026, Week 02] 2 weeks ago:
I saw “Sentenced to be a Hero” pop up and I flagged it to maybe watch it later but I’m not going to bother.
You saved me a precious hour that I can now spend on doing something productive. Like gaming.
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 2 weeks ago:
The US has directly captured or supported the overthrow of multiple heads of state. Nobody has ever done anything and they won’t now.
Too many Americans are actually supportive of this so there won’t be any major domestic repercussions. Maybe some hearings in Congress.
America is not going to fix itself. The corruption is built in. For the last 50 years (roughly), the system has been changed to make the people dumb and complacent; to make the President a puppet king who answers to the wealthy.
- Comment on If you have ANY Canadian ancestor, you are likely a Canadian citizen as a result of recent changes in Canadian law 2 weeks ago:
Very interesting. I’ll have to look into it. Fortunately, I have family on both sides who were very into family history; they were diehard Mormons.
- Comment on If you have ANY Canadian ancestor, you are likely a Canadian citizen as a result of recent changes in Canadian law 3 weeks ago:
I was hopeful for a moment then realized that my Canadian ancestors would have been British.
- Comment on Are we deprogramming empathy in the US? 3 weeks ago:
You’re referring to the 1560s/70s, right?
Seriously, though, stripping away empathy has always been a tactic throughout history used by the greedy and selfish to get their way.

Thanks for the link!
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
My router points to adguard, so I’d probably just run pi hole on the minipc.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
I haven’t heard of Sceptre. I’ll take a look.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
Very true. I’ll need to buy a pi and play with that first.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
I was thinking I’d do a pinhole and maybe a minipc. I’ve never had much luck with casting.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
I’m trying to avoid Amazon but I’ll look there to see what I can learn.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
That’s what my search keeps coming up with - commercial display models. I don’t know enough about them to make a good decision, though. I guess I’ll keep digging.
- Comment on LG TVs’ unremovable Copilot shortcut is the least of smart TVs’ AI problems 4 weeks ago:
I will need to replace my TV next year and I’m really not looking forward to it.
I will be hooking my two consoles (Series X and PS5), then all I need is something that I can put Emby and SmartTube on.
Are the Onn sticks still a good option?

You can buy a flamethrower drone for removing wasp nests. You can say it’s an amalgamation of Mage Hand and Fireball.
- Comment on Somali TikToker deported from US for spy kidnapping may be innocent 5 weeks ago:
Anyone deported by the US has a high probability of being legally and literally innocent.
- Comment on How Google Disabled Movie Reviews at the Request of Film Studios 1 month ago:
They misnamed the website. It should “mediocre” not “medium.”
- Comment on AI Slop Recipes Are Taking Over the Internet — And Thanksgiving Dinner | Food bloggers see traffic dip as home cooks turn to AI, inspired by impossible pictures 1 month ago:
Some food bloggers understand this and have a button to take you straight to the recipe. So many don’t, though.
I just want a recipe for peanut butter cookies, not a web novel, Jan. If I want a story with the recipe, I’ll go watch “Good Eats.”
- Comment on Norwegian Man Arrested for Playing Dorei to no Seikatsu 1 month ago:
“The 24-year-old suspect, from Sør-Rogaland, was charged with possessing the game as well as other illegal files.”
He had more than just the game, apparently.
Later in the article, it does explain that games like this do fall under Norway’s CP definition.

I think I get it. I’ll look into after I get home from work today.

I don’t understand how that’d work but I’ll look into it. Thanks for the info!
- Comment on Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters? 2 months ago:
I’m thinking getting a static public IP might just be the easiest way to go. I have a pretty good ISP. Aside from sticking all the customers behind CGNAT.

Time to rewatch Season 1.
- Comment on Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters? 2 months ago:
I’d rather not rely on an external service if possible. I’m just starting to read up on doing the whole VPN thing.
I appreciate your response and will keep your suggestions in mind as I move forward.
- Comment on Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters? 2 months ago:
I dug out an old laptop and installed Yunohost on it. I was so excited until I discovered that my ISP uses CGNAT. I’m trying to figure out what I want to do next.
I am looking at using headscale or just paying the US$10/month for a static public IP from my ISP. If I go with headscale, then it appears that I wouldn’t need Yunohost.
I’m a newb at this so there’s a lot I don’t know yet.
