- Comment on Nintendo is Bringing Us Kicking and Screaming Into the $80 Game Era with the Switch 2 1 day ago:
Quite a popular opinion actually.
There’s even websites like www.suedbynintendo.com
- Comment on Not even wealth is saving Americans from dying at rates seen among some of the poorest Europeans 2 days ago:
Title reads very negatively towards Europe.
I have an alternative: “Even the poorest Europeans live as long as the wealthiest Americans”.
- Comment on Europe’s GDPR privacy law is headed for red tape bonfire within ‘weeks’ 2 days ago:
In theory you just need to have a way for people to contact you, like an email address. And then when you get an email you just need to handle their data according to the GDPR rules.
I have a website with user data and I’m perfectly GDPR compliant, just by having an email address available for contact and manually deleting their data if they ask for it.
- Comment on Europe’s GDPR privacy law is headed for red tape bonfire within ‘weeks’ 2 days ago:
It’s super easy to be GDPR compliant. It just costs money.

- Comment on European police say KidFlix, "one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world," busted in joint operation. 2 days ago:
This platform used Tor. And because we want to protect privacy, they can make use of it.

That’s why they have insurance though no?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 days ago:
Why should it be if it’s not illegal to go vroom vroom? Makes no sense.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 days ago:
It really depends on the car. Newer cars and better brands will make 200km/h feel like 100km/h.
I have driven a car from 2000 that would completely start rumbling at 160kmh, compared to a car from 2022 where 220km/h felt like I was driving on clouds.
- Comment on Trump plans to announce a company called TikTok America, with a 50% stake for US investors and 19.9% for ByteDance, which would license the algorithm. 3 days ago:
TikTok’s valuation remains contested, with estimates varying from US$20 billion ($31.8 billion) to more than US$300 billion, depending on whether its algorithm is factored in.
The algorithm increases the price by more than $280 billion. And what kind of algorithm? One that changes its high based on how you interact with it, to always try and get your dopamine flowing to keep you interacting longer. If it were a real substance, it would be the most addictive drug to ever exist.
- Comment on Birth control: US scientists develop world’s 1st male contraceptive pill 3 days ago:
Yeah I’ve heard about this a few times before already.
- Comment on European police say KidFlix, "one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world," busted in joint operation. 3 days ago:
It’s a side effect of privacy and security. The one side effect they’re trying to use to undermine all of the privacy and security.
- Comment on Are Dairy Robots the Secret to Happier Cows and More Efficient Farms? 3 days ago:
Awesome. Please do that.
No need to live between selfish people.
- Comment on AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blocking 3 days ago:
This would still make a connection to the ad servers that can then track me though.
I guess with a hardened browser and a VPN it would be alright.
- Comment on Israel publicly announces genocidal intent 2 weeks ago:
I meant normal in wartime. It wasn’t just a slaughter like Israel is doing. People could still have jobs and do stuff.
- Comment on Israel publicly announces genocidal intent 2 weeks ago:
The Germans occupied the Netherlands during WW2 and most (non Jewish) people could still live relevantly normal lives. Israel on the other hand is destroying everybody and everything in Gaza. They don’t even have a chance to write a diary.

- Comment on Apple ordered by EU regulators to open up to rivals. 2 weeks ago:
“It’s bad for our products and for our European users. We will continue to work with the European Commission to help them understand our concerns on behalf of our users,” added Apple.
LOL. Europeans wanted this. Rivals just means third party apps. So people can actually do with their device what the hell they want to.

With a hidden rent fee.
- Comment on Chinese EV maker BYD says new fast-charging system could be as quick as filling up a tank 2 weeks ago:
What about defects in the machine or car? Could that lead to people being struck by lightning coming from the box next to their automobil?
- Comment on Microsoft accidentally removed Copilot in the latest Windows 11 update. 2 weeks ago:
I use Github Copilot. I like it a lot. What I don’t like is if it were forced right into my butthole.
- Comment on Nearly half of U.S. adults believe LLMs are smarter than they are. 2 weeks ago:
Well, if somebody thinks this, it’s kind of true isn’t it.

People buy up rice because of megaquake.
No more rice on market
Have to sell megaquake rice.

- Comment on Nokia Put a 4G Cellular Network on the Moon but Couldn’t Make a Phone Call 3 weeks ago:
Why the fuck are they even trying this?
Even under perfect conditions it takes more than 2 seconds for the radio waves to go to the moon and back.
- Comment on Athena spacecraft declared dead after toppling over on moon 4 weeks ago:
Brought back*
No need for this trash on the moon, even if it works.
- Comment on Kagi search engine now has a Fediverse search option. 4 weeks ago:
I have donated €1500 to opensource software projects and paid a whopping €7 for software. These (privacy respecting) projects got my money because they weren’t transaction based. Capitalism is not the only way.
- Comment on Reddit tracking upvotes for mod actions 4 weeks ago:
It was as a response to a post about how the Chinese eat centipedes. I replied something along the lines of “yeah they eat some weird stuff, like virgin boy pee eggs”. The permaban stated “hate based on identity” and linked to the post. I made an appeal and linked the wikipedia page. Denied.
Fuck that platform anyways.
- Comment on Reddit tracking upvotes for mod actions 4 weeks ago:
A little dubious
I once got permabanned for sharing that the Chinese eat eggs boiled in the pee of young boys.
