- Comment on Living a lie 1 week 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 weeks 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.

Who’s out here defending an ad?
- 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 3 weeks ago:
- Comment on Surely the moderators, admins, investors and bots would never interfere in any way 1 month 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.

- Comment on I did my best… 3 months ago:
I’m guessing a humorous exaggeration? I’ve accidentally cut bread off a loaf into weirdly thin/wedge slices but bagels I tend to nail pretty consistently.

Haha was about to say the same thing, this image never fails to evoke anger wherever it goes.
- Comment on YSK in the U.S., you can buy produce directly from black farmers and they will ship it to you. It can cost less than your supermarket and will piss off people in power. 3 months ago:
Sadly and unsurprisingly, nothing near me. On the bright side, we do have a farmer’s market so I’ll just continue to patron that and say that if you have one near you, definitely check them out!
