- Comment on Is there an optimal home/apartment size that most people would be happy with? 1 day ago:
As a single person, my 480ft^2^/45m^2^ studio apartments is basically the exact space I need.
- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 4 days ago:
Lol, I was gonna say that. I’m the wrong demographic for the affected games, apparently.
Regardless, if Valve can work out a way for these games to be playable on Linux, I’m all for it.
- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 4 days ago:
I don’t disagree, but the only a suff that comes to mind is COD or some other EA shovelware.
Ultimately, if it gets more people on Linux, it’s a net positive.
- Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support 4 days ago:
I don’t imagine the overlap of people interested in the steam machine and people playing games with invasive anti-cheat is very big.

People who run said companies should be scalped.
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 1 week ago:
What the hell is a “loss leader”?
- Comment on YSK before you buy a replacement for your cellphone that has stopped charging, buy the $10 cleaning kits and spend the time deep cleaning the phone's charging port. 3 weeks ago:
What the fuck are you people doing that causes the phone to not charge anymore? Rolling around in the mud naked with the phone clamped between your ass cheeks?
I have never had an issue with charging my phone at any point in the last 20+ years. I even have my phone upside down in my pocket so the charging port is facing up.
- Comment on YSK: you can stop Microsoft users from sending 'reactions' to your email by adding a "x-ms-reactions: disallow" header 3 weeks ago:
My work uses outlook and I still get a whole fuckin email saying “Dipshit has reacted 👍” and it’s extremely irritating. I’ll need to remember to turn off reactions on Monday.
- Comment on OpenAI moves to allow “mature apps” on its platforms 3 weeks ago:
Is it voyeur for OpenAI employees to read a person’s sexting chats with their AI? 🤔
- Comment on Why do seemingly all politicians (and no one else) do that hand gesture when they talk, the one where it looks like they're holding an invisible fishing rod? 4 weeks ago:
I wanna say I’ve heard that be referred to as the “Clinton thumb” since Bill Clinton did it a lot when president.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 1 month ago:
I’ve never paid for a streaming service. All my music is on my local device.
- Comment on Who plays like that x_x 2 months ago:
Never heard of the airplane explanation, but I invert both if it’s third person. I’m controlling the camera’s position behind the character, not where they’re looking.
- Comment on Today’s game consoles are historically overpriced 2 months ago:
That’s why the OG Switch is possibly the last console I’m getting. Which is really unfortunate since Nintendo is finally now releasing an Air Ride sequel. 😭
- Comment on Why people say they have a "boy cat" or a "girl cat" but when the cat grows up, they don't call is a "man cat" or "woman cat"? 3 months ago:
Because they are all fur babies. Always.
- Comment on For some reason suicide is illegal. If someone is going or trying to commit suicide and get talked down are they still in trouble or get locked up or sent to a medical facility? 3 months ago:
I could see there being a gray area with assisted suicide if it were legal, assuming that isn’t a separate illegal thing.

- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 4 months ago:
It’s been decades since I’ve cared about the 4th as an actual holiday. Now it’s just a day that I don’t have to work.
- Comment on Bounce bounce bounce 4 months ago:
I do that in the car. Whenever I was going somewhere with my ex, they’d always tell me to stop, lol.
- Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers 5 months ago:
I’m a filthy Windows user that’s too lazy to migrate my main PC to Fedora.

- Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers 5 months ago:
I’ve started bulk downloading videos with yt-dlp and watching them locally. No ads or throttling to deal with.

I need to watch more South park. 😂
- Comment on Does the average person know markdown? 6 months ago:
…could you please elaborate?
- Comment on Does the average person know markdown? 6 months ago:
I think less than 50% of people with access to technology are tech literate enough to know what markdown is. I don’t think age really applies here so much as interest in technology.
Just because I drive a car doesn’t mean I know or care about how it works. It’s just a tool.
