I’m currently rewatching the series and I’m still blown away by how fucking good it is. I hope the game will have a similar attention to detail.

- Comment on Sam Altman Thanks Programmers for Their Effort, Says Their Time Is Over 2 weeks ago:
They’re not as rich as him. If you have shit tons of money you can be a braindead moron and still fail upwards.
- Comment on Sam Altman Thanks Programmers for Their Effort, Says Their Time Is Over 2 weeks ago:
Same here. It’s cool for drafting up a concept and I can imagine that it can help if you’re stuck somehow, but that’s about it.
- Comment on Jensen Huang says gamers are 'completely wrong' about DLSS 5 — Nvidia CEO responds to DLSS 5 backlash 3 weeks ago:
They’ll just force remote computing on everyone. They’ll find a way to milk this further.

Dude, that card will survive the bursting AI bubble, world war 3 and then some. You can easily use that card for the next 15 years.
- Comment on In arr stack how to pick indexers? 5 weeks ago:
Hunting for torrents, begging to get into specific private trackers is quite time-consuming. I highly value my time.
- Comment on In arr stack how to pick indexers? 5 weeks ago:
If time is worthless to you, sure.
Here I am, paying next to nothing, automated everything, living a life free from American fuckhead companies.
- Comment on Asus and Dell announce new mini PCs for Windows 365 | Goodbye local OS 5 weeks ago:
I can’t work on a laptop. Might as well just use a shitty tablet instead. I’ll use a desktop PC, thank you very much.
Also, in the last 20 years I have experienced 2 power outages. One took about 3 hours to fix, which was spooky but also very cool, the other was in January this year and lasted for about 30 minutes. It’s really not a problem.
- Comment on Can someone ELI5 how to upgrade Overseerr now that it's Seerr? 5 weeks ago:
Can’t you just do a new setup? I just installed the seerr container on my unraid server and it took just a couple of minutes. Or am I missing something?

Shut up.

I’d add pedophile to the list.
- Comment on Why are we not getting stress relief games where we take our stresses out on normal people? 1 month ago:
While I agree with you, untitled goose game had my daughter and I cramping from laughter. It’s a very fun and short game.
- Comment on Instagram boss: 16 hours of daily use is not addiction 1 month ago:
They tend to get more. Teenagers won’t do chores for shit though, lol. Teens will do whatever they want for 24h straight, then sleep for 16 hours.
- Comment on Instagram boss: 16 hours of daily use is not addiction 1 month ago:
Teenagers.
- Comment on You NEED To Selfhost 1 month ago:
You can still go with unraid and buy more, smaller drives. Buy used SAS drives and an HBA. I recently bought a refurbished Dell optiplex with 32 gigs of ram and some i5 processor off eBay for 100€. SAS drives are really loud and consume more energy than consumer HDDs, but they last very long and are way cheaper.
- Comment on Thanks a lot, AI: Hard drives are already sold out for the entire year, says Western Digital 1 month ago:
Can’t wait for the bubble to pop and the used SAS HDD market to overflow with cheap hardware. Same with RAM.

I find it more astonishing that NZ is depicted at all.

What is this? Some LLM hallucinating? Give me back the couple of seconds I wasted reading your drivel.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 1 month ago:
Just give it an hour or two and your brain won’t give a shit about 60 hz anymore.
- Comment on Notepad++ Hijacked by State-Sponsored Hackers 2 months ago:
Why must this he compared? The Tiananmen Square massacre was insanely inhumane. They crushed peaceful protestors on bicycles with fucking tanks. They squished the people into a pulp so they could hose them into the gutters. Israel and Russia are also evil, also on a larger scale but that doesn’t absolve China from their shit.
- Comment on A new look for Snikket on Android 2 months ago:
No no, I use Signal and it was difficult enough to get friends and family over. Many didn’t. But Signal has been the only messenger with enough pull.
- Comment on A new look for Snikket on Android 2 months ago:
So, this is yet another messenger that just splits the user base even further, leading to even less people moving away from the WhatsApp? Or did I get it wrong? Why not just use Signal?
- Comment on Pixlpal is more than just a screen 2 months ago:
Because of style. Some people like this. A couple of years ago I’d have bought this because it’s a neat looking gadget. Now I don’t have money for these unnecessary items.
- Comment on Audio dongles and the ghost of USB 1 2 months ago:
I just recently went back to a dedicated mp3/flac player. I wanted to go back to actually thinking about the music I hear and discover music myself without an algorithm telling me what to do. Even my rather cheap Shure se215, which are meant to be IEMs for musicians rather than for listening to music, sound leagues better than the Sony wf-1000xm5 I have. And they’re even better at isolating noise, without ANC. Plus no Bluetooth bullshit. Fuck that noise.
I’m sick of the way tech is going. It’s also the reason I’ve started building a home server.

LinkedIn connects you with fuck all. It’s all just LLM posts on there, it’s ridiculous.
- Comment on ublock Origin can get rid of Cookie Banners 2 months ago:
Alphabet is known to mess around with the algorithms so you’ll always get disgusting Nazi shit in your suggestions sooner or later. Also, a lot of people can’t back out of doom-scrolling, because of bad impulse control (people with ADHD for example). And even if there’s something informative in there. It will always lack a lot of information. It’s like merely reading the headline of an article and then going into the comments, claiming you know everything about the topic (happens on Lemmy a lot).
It’s nice that you seem to have a grip on these shorts, but it’s even greater that you can use certain tools to eradicate them. On my mobile phone I use YouTube revanced and on Firefox/waterfox I use Tweaks for YouTube. With the latter you can also change the thumbnail size and grid the way you want so you don’t have to cope with the ridiculously large thumbnails.
