- Comment on I don't care if you read them, just mark them as read 6 hours ago:
More like “Damn bitch, you live like this?” I get not everyone’s brain is wired the same, but being restricted to my own I just can’t imagine being okay with that lol
- Comment on Society needs to keep score on positive impacts 21 hours ago:
Pretty sure there’s been more than one sci-fi novel explaining why this isn’t a great idea.
- Comment on 3 days ago:
Everything is moving very, very fast too.
- Comment on EU proposal to scan all private messages gains momentum 4 days ago:
even if end-to-end encryption is in place
More than one person has called it on the assumption that E2E encryption is next on the chopping block.

Thank you, as always, and hope you get some well deserved rest!
- Comment on Warner Bros. Games is working on another live-service game, despite Suicide Squad flop 1 week ago:
You mean “Warner Bros. Games is working on another tax write off.”
- Comment on Petition to tell MasterCard, Visa, and activist groups to stop censoring legal fictional content 1 week ago:
I do kind of wonder how you go about pushing against a company that has virtually no customer support. Just an AI chatbot or something. No numbers, no emails. It’s not common, but I’ve seen it, and I expect we’ll see more of it increasingly. I suppose at that point you could try to locate their address and mail them a letter?
- Comment on "Pilot had to dive aggressively to avoid midair collision over Burbank airport." 2 weeks ago:
And this is why I don’t fly anymore. It was never an enjoyable experience (except takeoff. Wee!!)
Now I find myself having a depressed opinion on the lack of train options.

Yep, the Kagi Assistant. I think you can turn it off but like DDG it’s on by default.
- Comment on Anti-porn group who tried to ban GTA 5 claim credit for Steam's sex game crackdown 2 weeks ago:
After looking up the person behind Collective Shout and seeing she was Australian didn’t exactly come as a shock to me. They have some bizarrely uptight censorship where video games are concerned.

- Comment on Living a lie 2 months ago:
Always wondered why some of the CSRs at the call center would get chewed out more than others despite being polite and respectful and I think you just made me understand that it was because they sounded false. They had a very obvious “customer service” voice. The ones who didn’t tended to just sound like normal folk having a good day. (That’s the secret sauce, they usually weren’t having a good day, but they sounded like they were in on some joke with you, that joke being ‘ahh talking to people, am I right?’)
- Comment on SteamOS finally released by Valve 2 months ago:
It wasn’t what introduced me to linux entirely, but it is absolutely what made me realize that Linux COULD be user friendly, so I definitely give credit to Valve for that. I am now gearing up to make the switch in the near future on my desktop.

Big Al’s Big Gay Ranch was already taken unfortunately.

- Comment on WoW's Leeroy Jenkins, one of the internet's oldest memes, turns 20 years old—and after looking back on what we wrote in 2005, I feel like we've failed Leeroys everywhere 2 months ago:
- Comment on Surely the moderators, admins, investors and bots would never interfere in any way 3 months ago:
I don’t think so. A smaller pool does mean smaller odds that someone will take what you are offering and do anything with it, but it’s still possible to affect change, especially if you are asking people to affect things actually within their control.
But, with that said, your impact will likely be stronger if you communicate with the people near you locally instead of online, since you and those (physically) around you are affected by the same localized forces.
The internet is a good place to collaborate on ideas and methodologies; your local community is a good place to try to implement those things.
