Aim for flat angles on the porcelain, I guess.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 4 days ago:
You’re making it gross.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 4 days ago:
No, not if you sit down.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 4 days ago:
Perfect aim still splatters small droplets all around. Try placing a newspaper next to your toilet.
- Comment on Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased... 5 days ago:
Extremely silly post. Reactionary gender war nonsense. Everyone can and does and should sit down, that’s why it’s unisex. Stop hitching your identity and ego to the way your dad told you to piss.
- Comment on Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it' 1 week ago:
You can say it’s a bad deal, they are mismanaging the project etc. but calling it a scam is just hyperbole.
- Comment on Exactly Six Months Ago, the CEO of Anthropic Said That in Six Months AI Would Be Writing 90 Percent of Code 1 week ago:
The number is bullshit in the first place meant only to impress clueless CEOs.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 1 week ago:
Yeah the whole series is geared towards co-op, though the first a bit less so than the sequels.
Gotta say I’m surprised people report so many challenges with the games. I’ve played all four mainline titles, three of them in co-op, and rarely had session troubles and never performance issues.
- Comment on Wikipedia is resilient because it is boring 1 week ago:
I don’t quite follow. You’re saying she is financed by Russia?
- Comment on Reddit lost it 1 week ago:
Yeah that’s not what they mean. They mean teaching an llm on recorded texts and speeches from a person, then instruct it to pretend to be that person. Like that AI murder victim “testimony” that was permitted to be shown in court as “evidence” some time ago.
- Comment on Wikipedia is resilient because it is boring 1 week ago:
Sincere question as a foreigner, is there any basis to this “Jill Stein is a Russian asset” thing other than the fucked up nature of FPTP voting resulting in the US two-party system?
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 2 weeks ago:
Yeah but they’ve been doing that for a long time. Other channels are meeting the market for in-depth tech content, and LTT is bigger than all of them.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
This got a lot more likely five eaving the EU has removed a lot of food safety regulations in the UK.
- Comment on MIT Study Finds AI Use Reprograms the Brain, Leading to Cognitive Decline 2 weeks ago:
I don’t see how that’s any indicator of cognitive decline.
Also people had notebooks for ages. The reason they remembered phone numbers wasn’t necessity, but that you had to manually dial them every time.
- Comment on YSK: Before she was the CEO of BlueSky Jay Graeber worked in cryptocurrency 2 weeks ago:
As a software engineer? That doesn’t have to convey ideology by any means. People gotta pay the bills.
- Comment on How to Build a Powerful Reverse Proxy Firewall for Blocking the Evil Web-Scraping Robot Hordes from Hell 2 weeks ago:
Not sure about Tor but your fridge definitely supports mesh networks whether it wants to or not.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 2 weeks ago:
Yep, if I haven’t been hallucinating the past week
- Comment on Do you think he'll respond? 3 weeks ago:
Exactly, none of them are innocent, so that part is just plain irony. “hypothetically terrorize” makes sense because simply identifying as anti-fascist can get you on terror watch lists these days.
- Comment on Do you think he'll respond? 3 weeks ago:
How dare you hypothetically terrorize innocent fascists!
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 3 weeks ago:
I have no idea how precedence works in the UK. If they lose, is that a huge issue, or could a more legitimate service sue oater and realistically win if the verdict hinges on Kiwifarms being Kiwifarms?
- Comment on Steam payment headaches grow as PayPal is no longer usable for much of the world: Valve hopes to bring it back in the future, 'but the timeline is uncertain' 4 weeks ago:
Because, even if you do have a fully functional credit card which is not a given in many countries, US-based CC payment processors like Stripe are equally horrible third-party companies that gobble up all the data they can get their hands on somehow.
Seriously. You cannot even start “free trials” on US-based websites without handing over everything a bad actor would need for perfect identity theft.
- Comment on Why is the abusive parent always portrayed as being the father, why is the mother never portrayed as abusive? 5 weeks ago:
So reality is only your lived experience, not that of others?
- Comment on Microsoft's Windows lead says the next version of Windows will be "more ambient, pervasive, and multi-modal" as AI redefines the desktop interface 5 weeks ago:
Apparently “invasive but like, when it’s a good thing”.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 5 weeks ago:
ABP has also been owned and run by a shady investment firm for the past decade.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 1 month ago:
Cheating humans already perform closely enough to trick such a system. Many cheaters are smart enough to use an aimbot only for a split-second to nail the flick. With a tiny bit of random offset, those inputs indistinguishable from a high-skill player.
- Comment on Spotify fans threaten to return to piracy as music streamer introduces new face-scanning age checks in the UK 1 month ago:
I hate Spotify and would like to stop paying them even 1/5th of a family subscription. But I have researched alternatives and haven’t found one that meet my need to manage offline files, playlists, and the current playback session across many (and I mean many) devices.
- Comment on Mastercard deflects blame for NSFW games being taken down, but Valve says payment processors 'specifically cited' a Mastercard rule about damaging the brand 1 month ago:
They forgot the part about “damaging the brand”.
- Comment on Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content 1 month ago:
Stripe can also go fuck itself and die, thanks
- Comment on Mastercard release a statement about game stores, payment processors and adult content 1 month ago:
Unfortunately they are indeed big players, Stripe where people use credit cards and PayPal everywhere else. Both horrible companies that we’d be a lot better off if replaced with privacy-respecting alternatives.
- Comment on Is this the end of Bootloader Unlocking in the EU? 1 month ago:
There’s so many lobby groups and national interests pulling in various directions that it’s not really surprising to have both simultaneously.
I’m still surprised GDPR ever made it through against the cries of every corporation in earth, to be honest.
