- Comment on Vaping ‘to be banned outside schools and hospitals’ in England 1 week ago:
Sorry to necro this but I wanted to thank you for your comprehensive answer to my question. It’s always fascinating to learn about this sort of weird slice of life stuff from other cultures.
Just to clarify, the cook-at-home meals they’re talking about in the article you linked are microwave meals? In the US we have some smaller grocer chains that have cook-at-home kits but they’re more like the Hello Fresh type kits. Instead of being mailed out after being packaged up in a factory or something, they’re packaged up in store so you get a package with meat from the butcher counter in store, the same asparagus at whatever the fuck as you’d get from the produce section there in store, etc. All the spices and shit you need are packaged up for you in the quantity you need, then you just steam and sauté that shit up and you have a meal in like 20 minutes without having to do any prep or anything.
Obviously we also have microwave meals in abundance.

Ban caffeine in drinks? Like added caffeine? I’m assuming you can still get coffee but you can’t buy a Monster or a Red Bull or something? Is it over a certain limit, so sodas and stuff are ok or still no? Why not ban sugar in soda before caffeine in soda? I have so many questions.
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro 2 Reportedly Entering Mass Production In H2 2025, Sporting The New M5 SoC, Spatial Computing & Generative AI Could Make It A Hit 1 month ago:
I really don’t think they intended for everyone to buy it. I think they wanted to get it out into devs and enthusiasts hands, and let people who are interested but not!willing to spend that much money demo it in an Apple Store. They gives time for apps to get tested, independent devs time to port their apps over and iron out any bugs, etc.
I feel like the fact that the first one didn’t move even 100k units but they’re still working on a second generation one that will cost less proves that. That’s kind of what everyone’s being saying about this ever since the price was first announced.

Bruh. Obviously. The person said pay off their mortgage, which is distinctly different from making a mortgage payment. Jfc.
Also, the Vision Pro isn’t outrageously expensive, it’s just expensive. It’s not even just Apple. MSI, Asus, Lenovo, Dell, and Acer all have laptops in the $3,000+ range. I don’t really understand what your point is really, there’s tons of shit that I couldn’t afford for the decade I made minimum wage, but that I can afford now that I make much more. I wasn’t mad those things existed when I couldn’t afford them, and I definitely didn’t think they shouldn’t exist just because they were out of my budget.

It’s $3,500. That’s the price of a specced up MacBook Pro. That’s almost half the price of the Pro Display XDR. I mean I didn’t buy one because it is pretty expensive, plus I barely use my Index, but it’s definitely not “pay of your mortgage” level of expensive.
- Comment on Network Switch 1 month ago:
You presented one that doesn’t have security vulnerabilities? Here’s yet another CVE out for trendnet: nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-19239
Every. Single. Brand. Has. CVEs. I’ve used Mikrotik, I’ve used Cisco, I’ve used Juniper, I’ve used Ubiquiti. I have a trendnet Poe switch in my attic powering some cameras and an AP right now. I have no “problem” with any brand of anything.
I do have a problem with you implying that a company doesn’t take security seriously when they do. I start to think you’re intentionally lying when you lift up trendnet as the model, because they have quite an especially atrocious history of it.

We can go back and forth on RCEs literally all day. If your bar for using a product is “no RCEs”, get off the grid entirely my guy.
MikroTik is just as serious a network company as Cisco or Juniper, and vastly more serious from an enterprise networking point of view than trendnet.
Also where tf did OP mention anything about warranties?

You’re free to continue thinking their not a serious networking company though, just as I’m free to continue thinking your a foolish, not serious person.

- Comment on Tenacious iPhone user finally unlocks phone locked for almost a decade 1 month ago:
For real. It’s an iPhone 4s, if the wait was really that bad the person could have just gotten a grey market cellebrite ufed and been done with this whole thing. They sell for like $300-$400 on eBay ffs.
- Comment on Could I patent harmful technology to prevent it from being put on the market? 2 months ago:
Why in the fuck is copyright protection longer than patent protection? I feel like both should be 10-20 years maximum, but if you have to full on invent something, then work out production, the get sales going, I can see an argument for 20 years. But just drawing a fucking mouse gets you life of creator plus years beyond that?
I guess Disney isn’t waiting for competitors IP to hit public domain, but another type of company lobbying for longer patent terms might wind up with an own goal by locking themselves out of using some newly refined processes or something? It just seems really weird they haven’t been increased together.

You upgrade your chair, keyboard, mouse, and speakers every 3-4 years? You might as well be flushing your money down the toilet. You’re giving pretty terrible advice imo.
- Comment on Worst PC hardware trends that disappeared 2 months ago:
Sure, but the PCB with water block only takes up a single PCIe slot, and is shortened enough to fit in pretty much any case. Is my water cooled 4080S longer than my water cooled RX 480? Yes. Substantially longer? No. Thicker? Also no, basically same thickness.
- Comment on Worst PC hardware trends that disappeared 2 months ago:
I know for sure that installing a water block does not void the warranty on reference Nvidia cards. I’ve read that Asus (and evga rip) are the same. Not sure about MSI, and have read that Gigabyte will try to void warranty.
- Comment on Worst PC hardware trends that disappeared 2 months ago:
I think I’m misunderstanding your comment. Once you liquid cool the card, it’s no longer an oversized behemoth. My reference 4080S is only taking up a single slot.

- Comment on German star at Cannes condemns ‘madness’ of protective culture for UK child actors 5 months ago:
This has got to be a German thing. I’m working with some German software engineers who are providing the hardware and it’s onboard software for some industrial shit at my work. They’re all constantly dropping these super hot takes as absolute truths, and refuse to listen to anyone who pushes back. Once you realize that, you can start a conversation by shit talking the idea the people pushing back brought up and suss out the real motivations behind their design decisions. Often times those decisions might make sense in isolation, but won’t work in our environment.
It takes tricking the Germans in to thinking you completely agree with them, then just spontaneously discovered a blocking issue, for them to change anything. It’s ridiculous.
Reading through your post gave me very similar vibes. It’s like they have a cultural inability to comprehend that someone could be in a situation that they haven’t already thought of. Like an absolute zero chance of that ever happening, under any circumstance, anywhere, ever. It’s amusing until you’re trying to convince someone that while it’s a good thing they only have their web server listening on a localhost socket, they still need to sanitize user input because the person sitting in front of the machine with a keyboard plugged in can submit any fucking data they want, and there’s a massive SQLi issue, like zero input sanitization and yall refuse to use parameterized queries for some reason.
- Comment on iPhone owners say the latest iOS update is resurfacing deleted nudes 5 months ago:
I’ve started seeing people, who really should know better, referring to the PC tower as the CPU. As in, “I bought a bracket that mounts to my variable height desk which can hold my CPU up off the floor and let it move with my desk”.
Bro I’m looking at a picture of a custom water cooled PC here, you should know the fucking difference between a CPU and a computer case.
