- Comment on Mozilla warns Germany could soon declare ad blockers illegal 1 week ago:
Oooh, that’s why my comments get deleted on business insider when I rant about the inflationary use of “Deindustrialisierung”. They can go fuck themselves.
- Comment on Neil Young Leaves Facebook & Instagram Over “Unconscionable” Policies for AI Chatbot Conversations With Children 1 week ago:
If you don’t want to support an American company, you could also try Qobuz.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Audi is full of shit. Don’t chalk that pile of garbage up with Mercedes.
But, Toyota is easily better than any German brand. The reason why this just is garbage, is because Honda isn’t on top of the list.
- Comment on Florida sues some of the biggest porn platforms, accusing them of not complying with the state's age verification law 2 weeks ago:
In most cases it’s actually not hereditary, for some it is however. But in most cases, it’s related to mental disease. Lack of impulse control due to ADHD or depression for example. I went through that, finally on medication for 2 months now and I finally have the headspace to lose weight. And I agree with you, that losing weight works wonders on your health. But it isn’t as easy as you make it out to be.
Social status is also one of those things, especially in countries that are riddled with the cancer that is capitalism. Unhealthy food often is way cheaper than healthy food. Plus, poor people often work 2-3 jobs. They don’t have time to cook healthy meals.
- Comment on Grok’s ‘spicy’ video setting instantly made me Taylor Swift nude deepfakes 2 weeks ago:
You sound like a fun person to be around…
- Comment on The curse of ‘Disco Elysium’, the greatest RPG ever made 3 weeks ago:
Hey, it’s cool if you didn’t like it. I just think there’s tons of hilarious things going on. The whole setting appears very bleak and surreal, but there’s some really funny things in the game. I think it’s a good balance to be honest.
4 hours really doesn’t get you far. You don’t even get a feeling for the world in that little time. But you’ve watched YouTube videos on the game, so I guess it’s just not for you.
I grew up with British humor, so it’s kind of weird to hear that dark humor isn’t mainstream, lol.
- Comment on The curse of ‘Disco Elysium’, the greatest RPG ever made 3 weeks ago:
Maybe you should have kept on playing and you’d have noticed that the game is also funny as fuck…
- Comment on Samsung phones can survive twice as many charges as Pixel and iPhone, according to EU data 1 month ago:
They made it very clear that they’ll continue. It’s just a bit harder now. Plus, they’ll fast track their own hardware now.
- Comment on Old gamers don't understand what mobile gaming has become 1 month ago:
Please don’t get me wrong. I’m sure you’re a loving parent and just want what’s best for your daughter. But what you’re essentially doing, is giving your kid pocket money to go play slot machines at the local dive bar.
The reason why mobile phone gaming is so bad, is because there are barely any actual games. The reason your daughter thinks it’s fun to play candy crush is not because the game itself is good, it’s because the game makes her addicted to it. This is bad. Really bad. This will have consequences on how her brain handles dopamine. Please, for the love of your family, get her off that shit immediately.

Or you can simply cough up the money and pay for one of the best games ever made?
- Comment on Signatures skyrocket for Stop Killing Games campaign after big youtubers take up the cause, resulting in 100k signatures in 2 days. (Details on how to help in text body of post) 1 month ago:
I filled in all the fields and it keeps telling me “Field required”. I’ll try it later when I’m at my desktop PC.
- Comment on Last year China generated almost 3 times as much solar power as the EU did, and it's close to overtaking all OECD countries put together (whose combined population is 1.38 billion people) 1 month ago:
They pay the windfarms when too much power is generated for the grid to handle. The wind turbines are then throttled accordingly and the windfarm owners are reimbursed for the lost potential. At least that’s how it goes in Germany. It’s kind of an incentive to upgrade the power grid.
- Comment on You're not alone: This email from Google's Gemini team is concerning 1 month ago:
Isn’t graphene left for dead because of Google being a bunch of dildos?
- Comment on Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital 2 months ago:
I didn’t down vote you, but Discord is a huge offender regarding enshittification of the internet. Reddit might even be worse.
- Comment on The "standard" car charger is usually overkill—but your electrician might not know that [32:26] 2 months ago:
I’m not afraid of that at all. But if you draw shit tons of power from a crappy socket, things start to heat up real quick. Like getting really fucking hot, as in burn your house down hot.

But social media is 95% turbocancer…

Yes I do, speak for yourself.
- Comment on A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"? 2 months ago:
Same here. NV was pretty boring to me while FO3 was actually fun.

Harold Faltermeyer made some nice music for the game. Opala is still stuck in my head.
- Comment on For All That Is Good About Humankind, Ban Smartphones 2 months ago:
I’m just saying, that it is a problem and unless you’re fascist yourself, it is also your problem. Banning phones is ridiculous and will never go through anyway.
By the way, the internet is a billion times more efficient in spreading propaganda than anything we’ve ever seen before. Something needs to be done. Banning phones is not the solution though.
- Comment on For All That Is Good About Humankind, Ban Smartphones 2 months ago:
Pocket PCs were a thing. I loved them.
- Comment on For All That Is Good About Humankind, Ban Smartphones 2 months ago:
The rise of fascists isn’t your problem? Believe it or not, they’d never be this strong if it weren’t for brainwashing the masses via smartphones.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 2 months ago:
I think it’s back to just SmartTube. SmartTubeNext was a temporary thing to get SmartTube back on track iirc.

It’s not. Alphabet is already making billions off our data. Just use uBlock or ReVanced or whatever and don’t shovel more money into their greedy pockets.
- Comment on Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls... 2 months ago:
Yeah, because killing a huge fucking seagull in front of kids is a totally normal thing to do.
- Comment on AOSP isn't dead, but Google just landed a huge blow to custom ROM developers 2 months ago:
We had those, they were called Pocket PCs. I too want them back. I loved the Dell Axim x51v. A tablet does the job, but it’s the same shitty OS.
- Comment on YouTube relaxes moderation rules to allow more controversial content. Videos are allowed if "freedom of expression value may outweigh harm risk" 2 months ago:
It’s likely going to be selective censorship, i.e. Nazi cunts stay, criticism of said Nazi cunts will go.
- Comment on Android 16 is here 2 months ago:
No revanced on iOS either. That alone disqualifies iPhones.
- Comment on A Researcher Figured Out How to Reveal Any Phone Number Linked to a Google Account 2 months ago:
Or, how about they fuck off and leave me alone with my private data? I don’t want to have to lag for something that should be an irrevocable right.
Even if you completely degoogle and whatnot, these cunts will still get hold of your data one way or the other. Its sickening.
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 2 months ago:
I know it had always been there. But social media has made it so much more efficient. It’s hard to compare it with traditional media.
