You actually had to edit files? Outside of me breaking things first (yay mods) I’ve only had to edit 1 file ever, and that was mass effect 1 on an old and laptop that was uhh… not suitable for the task given to it.

It’s likely that it falling into pieces made it stronger, spread out the energy of the impact
- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 1 week ago:
It isn’t air gapped, I just have a program that can block internet access to anything running. My internet is bad enough I can tell when something is using almost anything, and I’ve blocked most windows processes. It’s just another check box to click

Online connection? So I remove the internet from the thing and it just doesn’t work? Easy fix.

It’s really easy to make explosives. Making them stable and reliable is the hard part.
- Comment on kurzgesagt – AI Slop Is Killing Our Channel 3 weeks ago:
There’s an incredible amount of money in those offers. Years ago Linus Tech Tips got an offer of 100m, so I get why people take the money.

Burgers are bigger, the other two are one or two bites. Burger is at least 3.
- Comment on Explaining your traumatic past IRL feels so underwhelming compared to when a character in a movie or tv scene revealing their traumatic childhood. 4 weeks ago:
I had the opposite experience. I was laughing about it and then realised no one else was.
Oh, oops.

D, with G a very close second
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
Fair enough, I use mine as basically a replacement for any other streaming platform, so it’s more about entertainment than raw usefulness.
My sub list is ever growing, at about 150 now. I don’t watch a lot of what’s put out by them but that’s where I start when I want to watch something. The main YouTube feed is… Unreliable at best
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
I watch a huge range, from 100 subs to 20m. I’ve spent years making a decent sub list to watch so I avoid most issues about trash content.

Super deep dive into games and their lore mostly, although the super long ones tend to be named like, ‘a quick retrospective of game’

My subscribed has 1 row of shorts no matter how far I scroll, never adds more.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
I regularly watch hour+ videos, and there’s quite a few 10+ hour videos I’ve enjoyed. Just gotta find the right people.

It’s a business with over 100 employees, if it wasn’t huge where would the employees be? His dropping thing always existed, he just got rich in the meantime.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
I only pay them because I watch a stupid amount of YouTube. Hours a day, many more hours when not working.
If those ads come back while I’m paying though, the flag flies.

Do trucks not have the stickers saying ‘if you can’t see my mirror I can’t see you’ on them? I see that all the time.

My laptop windows 11? No problem. Anyone elses windows? Fucking burn it.

Fucking loved me some sauce sandwiches.
- Comment on If you got in a time machine 2 months ago:
That’s about my limit with stuff. If I pay for ad free and then I get an ad from the people I paid to not see ads, the flag hoists again.
I can afford it easily so I’d rather pay, but I’m not dealing with ads.

My radio-bluetooth transmitter speaks english in a stereotypical Japanese accent and it’s hilarious.
- Comment on Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says 2 months ago:
I generally trust Skill Up as well
- Comment on As electric bills rise, evidence mounts that data centers share blame. States feel pressure to act 2 months ago:
Even at over double the other guys estimate on power per area, it isn’t even touching the requirements of major data centres. What it takes to run a normal house is tiny, they likely have servers that individually draw more power than my entire household, and they have hundreds if not thousands of these servers.
Do it anyway because solar is the closest thing to free power we have, but it isn’t gonna cover the building.

I enjoyed it for one run. Tried to do a second playthrough and… nah. One is enough.

2.4ghz is faster than my max bandwidth so I keep using it for range

Our ice cream truck seems to also do coffee. I haven’t bought anything from it but I’ve seen it around
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 3 months ago:
Particularly in populated areas, slow the fuck down. Too many people could get hurt, go speed somewhere the people aren’t.
- Comment on Say Hello to the World's Largest Hard Drive, a Massive 36TB Seagate 3 months ago:
It does technically work without it, just don’tgo over A class, don’t do sprints and there was 1 normal circuit that’s a tad big in a forest bit
