- Comment on AI is eating up Pennsylvania's power, governor threatens to pull state from the grid — new plants aren't being built fast enough to keep up with demand 1 day ago:
Imagine being able to use all that power for literally anything else like … oh I don’t know … manufacturing anything. You know, create jobs, jump start the economy. Oh who am I kidding with all these pipe dreams that make sense.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 3 days ago:
My last EA game was Battlefield 3 and I have never purchased an EA game since. Has that stopped EA? No. Why? People will buy it anyway because once their friends buy it, they have to buy it too. Companies all know gamer heard mentality. Your best bet is to slap that digital copy out of your friends’ hands right onto the floor. I don’t know how you do that, but that would be a nice thing to have.

Then after space it’s the college years followed by Dinosaurnado. Although, a tornado composed of dinosaurs sounds awesome.
- Comment on ‘You can’t pause the internet’: social media creators hit by burnout 1 week ago:
The point of the thread was for the influencers to fucking go and get a real job because they’re just rotting brains anyway. It started with tide pods and it’s grown into the exact thing you just stated. All that manosphere bullshit for example. You don’t think all those podcasts, Twitch, and whatever the fuck else today’s teenagers could get their hands on had any influence whatsoever from from all these dipshit people? We were all fucking teenagers so get off that “BRO I WAS A FUCKING TEACHER” high horse. It’s just worse now because they’re constantly bombarded by stupid fucking ideas. Welcome to the failure of the education system! Sorry you had to eat shit daily to find out I guess!

Just go hide back under your rock. Next thing you’ll say is that kids are absolutely safe minded individuals that stop and think about their safety and the safety of others when see they something that intrigues them.
- Comment on Grok got a Nazi patch 1 week ago:
Even if you slap them with the actual, documented footage taken by the US military video, photos, and paper record of these camps with the EXPLICIT INTENTION to make sure people don’t say “they made all that up” they will still say, “They made all that up.” If you keep going to Twatter for information, you’re basically a idiot at this point and deserve what’s coming for being so misinformed. That goes the same if you use Grok for anything. Let elon run all that into the ground and let it die already. My point is, bad press is good press.
- Comment on Viewers like you 1 week ago:
The fact that somehow Big Bird and friends were a threat of any sort to society should tell you what kind of asshole they chose to be. Social media platforms like twatter and meta justify in their minds their assholery. Sesame Street didn’t stand a chance against the onslaught of digital dipshit soapboxes.
- Comment on NVIDIA is full of shit 1 week ago:
Folks, ask yourselves, what game is out there that REALLY needs a 5090? If you have the money to piss away, by all means, it’s your money. But let’s face it, games have plateaued and VR isn’t all that great.
Nvidia’s market is not you anymore. It’s the massive corporations and research firms for useless AI projects or number crunching. They have more money than all gamers combined. Maybe time to go outside; me included.
- Comment on Trump Team Has Full Meltdown Over CNN Story on ICE-Tracking App 1 week ago:
I would imagine this is very similar to marking a cop on Waze and completely legal which is why they are throwing a hissy fit.
- Comment on Yes, this is what people did back then 2 weeks ago:
Lay in bed for a moment and listen to the tunes on my sweet Panasonic clock radio alarm before slapping the snooze button. Then suddenly wake up to realize I have a clock radio alarm again.
- Comment on Cheeto devouring his nation 2 weeks ago:
Good one. Not that I can do any better, but would it make more sense to put the statue of liberty there to better reflect the original inspiration?
- Comment on Tesla In 'Self-Drive Mode' Hit By Train After Turning Onto Train Tracks 2 weeks ago:
So, maybe a “human take the wheel” followed by a “slam the brakes” if no input is detected in 2-3 seconds.
I have seen reports where Tesla logic appears as “Human take the wheel since the airbag is about to deploy in the next 2 micro seconds after solely relying on camera object detection and this is totally YOUR fault, kthxbai!” If there was an option to allow the bot to physically bail out of the car as it rolls you onto the tracks while you’re still sitting in the passenger seat, that’s how I would envision how this auto pilot safety function works.
- Comment on Elon Musk wants to rewrite "the entire corpus of human knowledge" with Grok 2 weeks ago:
Dude wants to do a lot of things and fails to accomplish what he says he’s doing to do or ends up half-assing it. So let him take Grok and run it right into the ground like an autopiloted Cybertruck rolling over into a flame trench of an exploding Startship rocket still on the pad shooting flames out of tunnels made by the Boring Company.
- Comment on US | Trump Reportedly Greenlights Plan for US Attack on Iran Without Congressional Approval 3 weeks ago:
This is the part where past decisions come to bite us all in the ass. There is an “exception” congress gave to the president which allows them to do some military operations bullshit IF there is imminent threat AND they give congress a written notice to both the speaker of the house and the president of the senate. They have 60 days, or whatever arbitrary time line they decide upon, to finish up what they are doing unless congress says they can stay longer. Wartime Powers Act www.congress.gov/bill/93rd-congress/…/440 At least it reads something like that. Congress just can’t be bothered to do their job really. We all know Orange Chicken Little is a pro at making up “imminent threats”.
- Comment on Right to Repair Gains Traction as John Deere Faces Trial 3 weeks ago:
The fact that they purposely cripple your equipment with software is ludicrous. It’s even more ridiculous to expect farmers to know IT when they used to be able to fix their equipment with hammers and wrenches. After well over a decade, it’s good to see movement is finally being made to address this absolute b.s. It’s not just John Deere doing this, a lot of the major companies are selling you stuff you don’t truly own. Take your phone for example.
- Comment on Reddit will help advertisers turn ‘positive’ posts into ads 3 weeks ago:
Today, Reddit is the most human place on the internet, and one of the last places on the internet where brands can build authentic, trusted and engaged relationships with customers.
That reads like something out of their totalnotrobots subreddit. I TOO LOVE EXPRESSIVE AND AUTHENTIC HUMAN THOUGHTS.
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 4 weeks ago:
This is Google’s attempt at staying relevant now that it’s search engine is far from being the best and people are getting their information from TikTok and other sources. Their AI is garbage at even finding factual data. No, this will not cause a “webpocalypse”. There’s already systems in place to send AI’s forcing their way into websites into mazes of infinite useless information to poison them.
At the end of the day, every search engine’s purpose is automating the curating of websites. People can go right back to human curated lists if the worst of the “webpocalypse” happens. People also need to start relearning that the internet existed before Google and social media, and it will exist after.
- Comment on Switch 2 Breaks Records By Selling Over 3.5 Million Units In Four Days 4 weeks ago:
So despite all of the bitching and moaning about all of the “game breaking” features, the shitty little camera, the lack of original games and the price they still bought it. This is why companies keep putting out crap.
- Comment on An analysis of X(Twitter)'s new XChat features shows that X can probably decrypt users' messages, as it holds users' private keys on its servers 4 weeks ago:
And yet people still keep using Twatter like it’s the only thing that has ever existed since the dawn of the internet. At this point, you deserve to get wrecked for still using this platform.
- Comment on Looking for the perfect 5 year anniversary gift? 5 weeks ago:
I forgot the term for this but this is basically the AI blue screening when it keeps repeating the same answer because it can no longer predict the next word from the model it is using. I may have over simplified it. Entertaining nonetheless.
- Comment on Amazon is reportedly training humanoid robots to deliver packages 5 weeks ago:
They will train it so well, it will even collapse like a human when overworked! youtu.be/6Kp5qrCExps . I recognized that bot from the photo.
- Comment on "And my dick fucks your wife more than you do. What's your point?" 5 weeks ago:
That’s when you pull Nick Swarsdson’s wrist watch bit. “Hey man I can’t read my watch, can you read my watch?”
- Comment on This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast! 5 weeks ago:
If you aren’t running a home server with tons of storage, this product is not for you. If the price is right, 40TB to 50TB is a great upgrade path for massive storage capacity without having to either buy a whole new backplane to support more drives or build an entirely new server. I see a lot of comments comparing 4TB SSDS to 40TB HDD’s so had to chime in. Yes, they make massive SSD storage arrays too, but a lot of us don’t have those really deep pockets.

Probably already knows you applied to 30 other families and just making sure you feel shitty about it instead of offering a reason to stay.

Should send it an email that links it into an infinite maze of useless information.
