I didn’t think it could look worse and yet here we are
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 3 weeks ago:
My home laptop has an uptime of almost 30 days at this point, who needs a power button?
- Comment on Crunchyroll just Committed a Federal Crime. 3 weeks ago:
People have been saying it’s unwatchable for years and I can barely see the difference
- Comment on What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs 3 weeks ago:
Whatever it is that checks for tpm obviously needs tpm, or it wouldn’t need a work around
- Comment on What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs 3 weeks ago:
If w11 changes something that relies on tpm, and you don’t have tpm, surely you can see how that could cause a significant issue?
- Comment on No excuse 4 weeks ago:
Either way I’m blind if there’s a big fucker next to me at the start, and it’s about 1/5th of the car moved to see either way. I guess that’s car dependant though, it’s only my direct rear visibility that sucks and sideways back is fine but I’ve definitely been in cars where trying to see what’s next to you and a bit back is hard.
- Comment on No excuse 4 weeks ago:
Australian, I actually took a photo to show my point today. Technically didn’t reverse back because it’s back to back parks and you can drive through the first to be in the second, but same end result.

Sorry about it being a discord link, that’s just the most convenient thing for me right now as apparently I can’t just upload the image to the comment. Or I just don’t know how, either way. Can’t see shit to my left, I just happened to know there wasn’t anyone coming from when I got in the car, but if I didn’t it would be a massive pain in the arse despite leaving the park forwards.

So is 999%
And I’ve just learned percent is under two layers of keyboard menus so that’s just fantastic.
- Comment on No excuse 4 weeks ago:
We must have different parks, if there’s a car next to me regardless of facing forwards or back, I can’t see shit til I’m half out the park anyway. Part of that is most cars being twice the height of my previously normal sized car I guess, so I can’t see through their windows anymore.
- Comment on LG monitor asking about ad tracking preferences 4 weeks ago:
Don’t literally all car manufacturers spy on everyone all the time to an ungodly degree? Not saying it’s a good thing, but Kia and Hyundai aren’t different here.
- Comment on No excuse 4 weeks ago:
Significantly less turning going in forwards, with the exception of parallel parking where both are pretty even, but some people see you pass a park and go right up your arse even though you wanted to back in.
Also car has great visibility forward and fuck all backwards, rear view mirror is like double the size of the rear window (in the reflection, not side by side).

Cats tend to be exactly inside the box, I would expect them to park inside the lines every single time.
- Comment on Honey 4 weeks ago:
A lot of religious people aren’t inherently dangerous, whereas an active nazi or pedo is likely going to end up hurting someone.
Not that I overly disagree, fuck religion.
- Comment on All Of Apple’s Foldable iPhone Prototypes Have Visible Creases, Which May Explain The Company’s Apprehension Towards A Launch 1 month ago:
Foldable at least has theoretical benefit, curved screens on a phone are fucking terrible
- Comment on Why do phone manufacturers use in-display fingerprint readers instead of fingerprint readers on the power button? 1 month ago:
My underscreen one is excellent and works 99% of the time. That still leaves it significantly worse than rear fingerprint sensor. RIP the best unlock method.
- Comment on Headlamp tech that doesn’t blind oncoming drivers—where is it? 1 month ago:
I found out about it by being unable to use my laptop with sunnies unless I rotate the sunnies or the screen. Yet another lcd downside, should’ve got an old lmao
- Comment on YouTube Hype gives smaller creators a place to shine 2 months ago:
I tried the games once and they fucking suck, and then youtube wouldn’t stop trying to get me to play them more for like 4 months. I mostly use PC so shorts existing while being mildly inconvenient, isn’t an issue because I can just scroll past them. The movies have tempted me a couple times, but idk if i want to pay money for something i probably wont watch all of, actual youtube content is often more enjoyable.
- Comment on YouTube Hype gives smaller creators a place to shine 2 months ago:
Aside from showing me stuff I’ve seen (hopefully I just missed a setting for that) I don’t really have an issue with the yt algorithm. I watch game stuff, tech and science and it shows me more of that mostly. I am logged in though, so I don’t know if that makes any difference given they are able to track your interests regardless.
- Comment on Why do boomers hate squirrels so much? 2 months ago:
No, it’s just a bird feeder not a squirrel feeder. At least until the squirrels manage to change the signage, which they probably could if they tried hard enough.
- Comment on Why do boomers hate squirrels so much? 2 months ago:
Squirrels eat the bird food meant for the birds and are extremely hard to stop
- Comment on Cords 2 months ago:
That’s Australia’s.
Because of the no switch, does US plugs spark a lot when getting plugged in?
- Comment on Cords 2 months ago:
Wait really? I don’t think I have a single unswitched plug in my house, and I’ve never seen another house with even a single unswitched plug. Do US people need to unplug cords to get rid of standby lights?
- Comment on Cords 2 months ago:
So is the problem solved by not plugging it into a powered wall plug? Just like… flick the switch off, like you would a light switch before changing a bulb?

- Comment on Self-Hosted AI is pretty darn cool 3 months ago:
Can confirm, the GPU in my laptop costs more than all but my newest car.
- Comment on Self-Hosted AI is pretty darn cool 3 months ago:
With how low the average person is with tech skills, it’s very easy to be top 10%.
- Comment on Why is it so easy to avoid nettles as an adult? 3 months ago:
As a kid I would play in grass and end up stung. As an adult I do not enter tall grass and therefore can’t be stung by the nettles hidden within.
- Comment on Cars Are Now Rolling Computers Now. So What Happens When They Stop Getting Updates? 3 months ago:
Had similar in my old car, honestly a decent Bluetooth speaker will be better than a lot of old, stock car speakers would be anyway.
