- Comment on Cloudflare CEO warns AI and zero-click internet are killing the web's business model 1 week ago:
I went to college for networking but the most productive class I’ve ever had where I learned the most about the internet was instead back in high school. This teacher would make 20 page packets with the most obscure questions like what’s the weight of model number 62xRG4 (some obscure car part or something) and he told us to google it. We would spend entire classes just searching for information we would never use, but it drilled into me how to go about finding the information I need. It’s been utterly invaluable. Thank you Mr Ward.

Just gotta find a server with one of the mods…

The best part of PZ modding is how little you have to do. Boot the regular game and click multiplayer and just join a modded server. The game will download, install, and apply a few hundred mods without you doing anything.

It’s a surprise. Don’t stand too close to the walls
- Comment on I will step on you and spill your food, my small friend 3 weeks ago:
I think you can blame God for that one
- Comment on The Brits had an anthem ready for when Margaret Thatcher died. Americans should also be prepared. 3 weeks ago:
It’s a real shame they stuck this song on the end of a long video. The video is neat but the music video at the end is an absolute banger. Skip to 22:30 if the timestamped link doesn’t work.
- Comment on So true 3 weeks ago:
Does soda have pairings like wine? I had no idea, I just cracked open sodas. What kinda faux pas have I been doing all my life? Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?
- Comment on The US government is coming for Google and Meta – but what will happen next? 4 weeks ago:
They’ll roll out the Zuckbot for some public speaking so everyone can focus on how weird he is instead of anything else.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
FWIW PG&E is the entire west coast - WA or OR is probably lower cost of living than CA. It’s also a pretty terrible company from what I’ve seen. I’ve surveyed a lot of really nice power grids and then I visited CA and saw what they call a utility pole… Not to mention every year it seems like they burn down half the state.
Those recent LA fires had PG&E releasing public statements saying it absolutely wasn’t them this time, before anyone even suggested it was.
- Comment on I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement 5 weeks ago:
Real men aren’t held back by anything! The belt restricts blood flow through the body! It’s a globalist conspiracy to turn our men into women!
- Comment on After years of hearing about it, I finally started playing Timberborn. Great chill city builder. 5 weeks ago:
Construction lacks material (2385)
- Comment on Have there been any major changes noticed in countries that have recently split? 1 month ago:
A few of the stans switched (back?) to a Latin alphabet at the fall of the USSR. Kazakhstan is in the process of doing the same.
- Comment on Does anyone have ideas for cable management here? 1 month ago:
Do you have attic access over that wall? A really long HDMI/RCA could go from behind the TV into the wall, up to attic, skip a few studs, then down to a brush faceplate behind the consoles
- Comment on Coin-sized nuclear 3V battery with 50-year lifespan enters mass production 1 month ago:
These types of batteries are called wafer batteries because you just eat them
- Comment on The Sims Competitor inZOI Sells 1 Million in a Week, Krafton Declares It a ‘Long-Term Franchise IP’ 1 month ago:
People already made nude patches. The second there’s official mod support, this game is getting a permanent reputation as a porn game, I guarantee it
- Comment on Would it be a bad idea to show up at a protest outside a Tesla dealership with a sign that says "Deny Musk, Defund Doge, Depose Trump"? 2 months ago:
Yeah, instead OP should fill a gas can with Gatorade and casually sip from the can while at the protest. If anyone asks, say you brought it to show your support for combustion engines. There’s no way that can be interpreted as a threat, right?
- Comment on The wildest details in the Facebook memoir Meta is trying to bury 2 months ago:
It’s real hard to press that button - its built into a locked briefcase and stashed in a bunker under the whitehouse. You also need a code for the button to do anything, I think.
- Comment on YSK that some governments have technology known as Directed-energy weapons such as Long-range acoustic device and Active Denial System... (continue in post) 2 months ago:
This conspiracy theorist just ctrl-f’d for havana and scoffed at the 0/0
- Comment on “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen 2 months ago:
Manufacturers need to put the cheap ass software on a cheap ass $20 stick. Stop fucking up TVs with it. Stop accepting any ‘smart’ features and stop calling them smart. They’re invasive advertisement platforms, full fucking stop. It is in fact NOT worth it to get a google TV, because they’ll pull this shit or worse next week. We had perfectly functional TVs for decades before this shit, stop acting like the only choice is to surrender your hardware.
- Comment on Which game is it? 2 months ago:
I just spent 20 hours on the demo for the new game roadcraft. I’m just pushing dirt around in a tractor like I’m playing with Tonka trucks back when I was 5. I haven’t really done anything interesting, just leveled dirt. Anyway, ill probably put in another 6 hours today after work.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 2 months ago:
Ya I have no doubt him and his gremlins are manipulating stocks. They probably heavily invested in EU MIC like Rheinmetall before starting all the drama that caused it to spike and US MIC to dip. In a week they’ll cash out, buy the dip on Raytheon and suddenly trump publicly reverses a ton of bullshit. Rinse and repeat on all of his drama he starts. These tarrif games are screwing heavily with stock prices too. No doubt they’re making bank with the whiplash they’re causing.
- Comment on Why is there so much separation in the USA between people who identify as "black" or "white" compared to other regions like South America? 2 months ago:
Please reread that amendment slowly, word for word. See if you maybe missed something the first time.

If he rebooted his first show The Broken, I would watch every second. It was seriously his best work.

- Comment on Ukraine isn’t invited to its own peace talks. History is full of such examples – and the results are devastating 2 months ago:
Buying thousands of North Koreans with zero combat experience to attempt to take back land you lost in an invasion that you started… is that what winning looks like?
- Comment on Kroger’s Surveillance Pricing Harms Consumers and Raises Prices, With or Without Facial Recognition. 3 months ago:
So like, if a hundred of us all filed through a store, picked up this one item, then set it back down, it would potentially be cheaper next week?
Is this the new protest instead of not buying from a particular company? Next Kroger you visit, pick up and set down all the nestle products you can find.
- Comment on Yeah, tunafan9000?? 3 months ago:
I’m surprised he didn’t tip on the entrance ramp. Makes me think he dumped his load at some highway construction and had barely started going before this happened
- Comment on ICE Wants to Know If You’re Posting Negative Things About It Online 3 months ago:
I would like to know where I can personally inform them that I am, in fact, posting negative things about their department online. I’ll even send them a fucking link
