- Comment on 30 Years of PlayStation History Secured in Underground Vault with 650TB of Data | Retro Gaming News 24/7 1 week ago:
They’re gonna turn into dicks about it.
Even if this was started for a good reason it would turn to shit eventually. But as a big company, this was done purely to make money off of FOMO.
Only preservation this is about is preservation of future profit.
- Comment on 30 Years of PlayStation History Secured in Underground Vault with 650TB of Data | Retro Gaming News 24/7 1 week ago:
And this is another reason why I pirate so many games.
They made their money on the hype when the games were released way back. Make them available and people will buy them instead of pirating. But they’d rather lock things away to cause FOMO like you said. They keep thinking about short-term profit rather than long-term steady income.
This has nothing to do with preservation.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 week ago:
I also don’t agree with the killer games thing, but humans are very adaptable as a species.
Normally that’s a good thing, but in a case like this exposure to something shocking or upsetting can make it less shocking or upsetting over time (obviously not in every case). So, if AI is being used for something like this and being reported on isn’t it possible that people might slowly get desensitized to it over time?
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 week ago:
That’s fair, but I still think it shouldn’t be accepted or allowed.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 week ago:
Fair enough. I still think it shouldn’t be allowed though.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 week ago:
Yes, but how is the AI making the images or videos? It has to be trained on SOMETHING.
So, regardless of direct harm or not, harm is done at some point in the process and it needs to be stopped before it slips and gets worse because people “get used to” it.
- Comment on Microsoft is redesigning the Windows BSOD and it might change to black 1 week ago:
I don’t care what colour the screen is. Just make the damn error message useful. Give me something I can use to start my troubleshooting instead of this uwu sad face bullshit we’ve had since Win 8.
Hell, keep your little sad face. But meet me halfway and give me a usable error code or message.
- Comment on YSK theres a open source tool to cleanly read webpage articles called 'NewsWaffle' 2 weeks ago:
This is really cool.
Takes some getting used to when you’re used to all of the links and other garbage in and around articles, but I’m sure anyone could learn to love this.
- Comment on In the latest Windows 11 preview build, Microsoft removed the “bypassnro” command, which let users skip signing into a Microsoft Account when installing Windows. 2 weeks ago:
They’ve accomplished nothing except further pissing off some of their most competent user base.
I don’t think they’ve cared about the competent users for a very long time. They only want the users who click
OKorNextwithout reading or thinking. - Comment on I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome) 3 weeks ago:
I only know the DNS blocking from them.
- Comment on I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome) 3 weeks ago:
DNS blocking doesn’t work for everything. Ad blocking extensions are the only way to block YouTube ads in your browser as far as I know.

Good thing there’s so many options for people to find what they’re looking for.

Probably upset about “Happy Holidays” or something.
- Comment on E-waste or Linux? Charities face tough choices as Windows 10 support ends 3 weeks ago:
Well, that’s not surprising to see. Thanks for the clarification.
- Comment on E-waste or Linux? Charities face tough choices as Windows 10 support ends 3 weeks ago:
Would not be surprised at all. Just want people to know about that instead of still being mad about some bullshit someone spewed years ago.
- Comment on E-waste or Linux? Charities face tough choices as Windows 10 support ends 3 weeks ago:
This was apparently never an official statement. It was someone in an interview that misspoke.
- Comment on Bluesky will trap academics in the same way Twitter/X did 5 weeks ago:
And most users will move to the next closed platform again.
The average user just doesn’t learn from this shit because they don’t know.
- Comment on So glad they are reporting what matters and not some mundane thing. 1 month ago:
Sounds like a dream job if it wasn’t Fox or similar.
- Comment on So glad they are reporting what matters and not some mundane thing. 1 month ago:
I’d honestly rather Fox focus on this than their usual conservative mouthbreathing.
- Comment on China’s humanoid robot turns into Kung-fu master after dancing debut 1 month ago:
You see stuff like this a lot with Chinese videos. I recently saw an electric supercar type vehicle from them jump potholes automatically at high speed as if it was nothing. Just keeps driving with zero wobble or death after landing.
- Comment on China advises citizens specializing in artificial intelligence to avoid traveling to America - SabaNet 1 month ago:
Individual people aren’t going to make any difference unless they’re carrying HDs full of training data around with them.
Yes, but most people don’t know that. Any excuse to make another big player look bad.
Most countries would grab onto something like this for some free propaganda.
- Comment on Top 10 Anime of the Week #08 - Winter 2025 (Anime Corner) 1 month ago:
Lonely weebs, obviously.
On a more snrious note, people might just find it enjoyable for some reason that doesn’t work for you.
- Comment on Controllers... 1 month ago:
We use them to control the console.
- Comment on Opera integrates Bluesky, Slack, and Discord into its browser 1 month ago:
But wait, there’s even more (Chinese spyware)!
Last I heard at least.

Much as I love bidets I doubt this guy owns or uses one.

Or even wipe his ass?
- Comment on After 40 years of being free Microsoft has added a paywall to Notepad 1 month ago:
Hell yeah. I just wanted to add another option. I have no opinion regarding Sublime and choice is a good thing. There’s something for everyone.
