  This sort of study shows you more how mathematicians think than how science or philosophy works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Slay the Princess - The Pristine Cut is OUT NOW!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3003: Sandwich Helix⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought the garbage symbols were part of the humor of the title.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“I am still alive”: Users say T-Mobile must pay for killing “lifetime” price lock⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is felony level bait-and-switch going on, here. This really should have criminal charges attached to the perpetrators.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of pro-Russia bots in here pretending to be concerned about their sudden inability to sneak backdoors into the kernelopen source.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Text-based Interactive Fiction games recommendations from Itch.io⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IFWiki is quite a good source, as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Recall is secretly installed on non-Copilot+PCs (Privacy Nightmare)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always the Devil who tries to convince everyone that he speaks for God.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield Design Director Responds To Shattered Space Criticism⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For real. Maybe they’re completely burned-out at this point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Announcement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If Nintendo actually gave a shit about their customers, they’d release all their games on GOG. Don’t hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Citizen Developer Cloud Imperium Games Imposes 7-Day Work Week Ahead of Citizencon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  with staff receiving company TOIL (time off in lieu)

  I like their self-aware acronym there.

  That is a funny joke, and it’ll continue to be funny for the next 500 years (if right-wingers get their way).

  Just wait till you decide to start collecting blaze rods or farming wither skele heads.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X Loses Battle to Protect Genshin Impact Leaker's First Amendment Anonymity⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Back in the day, journalists went to prison to protect their sources. It was considered a rite of passage or a badge of honor. I highly doubt anyone at Twitter is willing to go to prison for their sources.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft releases a new Windows app called Windows App for running Windows apps⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m just here for the yo dawg memes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This clearly calls for Windows God Mode.

  Schrödinger’s tech. It’s both real and flimflam at the same time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The many, many signs that Kamala Harris’ rally crowds aren’t AI creations⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  When that convicted rapist gets defeated in the election, you can rest assured that he’ll resort to the same clumsy accusations of conspiracy and AI-generated this and that to try and deflect from the fact he’ll be the one trying to steal the election AGAIN.

  Maybe it’s about damn time that convicted rapist was actually punished and not responded to as if anything he said or did was worthy of discussion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Almost all Windows 10 systems can be upgraded to the new version — so why are businesses holding back?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who uses Win 11, I can confirm that it sucks.

  There are some cool ones that go back quite a few years at IFComp

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My favorite so far is Fallout NV, but anything in the Fallout series is great.
