- Comment on Anime Questions, Recommendations, and Discussion Thread [2025, Week 50] 1 day ago:
I recently watched My Dress-Up Darling and it quickly became one of my favorite anime’s. Any recommendations for similar shows? I watched Horimiya but it didn’t hold up as well as MDUD.
- Comment on Infosys co-founder once again calls for longer than 70-hour weeks - and no, he's not joking 1 week ago:
Far too nice. No need for the blade to be so sharp and free of rust.
- Comment on Make Amazon Pay 1 week ago:
That movement is for not buying anything from those companies for the next few days. It should be to not buy anything from them this holiday season or indefinitely. Support local businesses that keep money in your own community.

Standardized design, sure. I would argue you could get something more powerful at a comparable size for not too much more. My HTPC is about the size of a shoe box yet has a R7 7700X and a RX 6900 XT.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
The biggest advantages it has over other PCs is CEC and Wake on USB(controller) enabled out of the box. Those are the two features I miss the most on my HTPC.

You still have he choice to not use the software that has those back doors. There are plenty of open source alternatives that prevent spying.
- Comment on Hands on with North Korea’s Illegal Phones 2 weeks ago:
Western governments salivating at the thought of having that kind of control over it’s citizens. I can just say that I’m happy that that kind of lock down isn’t something I have to deal with, at least for now.
- Comment on We all do this 2 weeks ago:
It depends. If it is something that is monotonous, then music helps keep me focused. If it requires deep thought, then it can be distracting. Picking the right music for either option can also help.
- Comment on Europa Universalis V | Review Thread 4 weeks ago:
I picked up the title. Haven’t gotten a chance to play too much, but it feels much more noon friendly. Automations let you focus more on the parts of the game you want. The tutorial happens during a regular game instead of a separate mode. Performance has also been great on my machine.
- Comment on [Episode] Gnosia - Episode 4 discussion 5 weeks ago:
I feel we will find out next episode. Surely he will be chosen as a gnosia as he has already experienced being an engineer.

I need to make sure I have my old Affinity installers. I’m sure I won’t be able to activate in a few years because they decide to take down the authentication server.
- Comment on Apple becomes third company in history to crack $4 trillion market value 5 weeks ago:
Even crazier that they are valued at $4T when they haven’t done anything to push the business further, at least not worthy of a 300% increase in stock value.
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 1 month ago:
Having auto climate with physical controls is peak. No adjusting dials, your car just gets the internal climate to the temperature you want and that’s it.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
Having a first party emulator for older Xbox systems would actually be huge. Even the best Xbox emulator, Xemu, still has issues with some titles. With full access to the original source code, they should be able to produce something better than what is available on other platforms.
- Comment on Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App 1 month ago:
It was forked off if Organic Maps because if a difference of philosophy. Organic Maps wanted to add more proprietary components to their app.
- Comment on Microsoft Pushes Xbox Division to Hit Higher Profit Margins 1 month ago:
They are asking the impossible. If they refuse to take any risks on new titles they will not have breakout hits like they are wanting. They have enough studios that you can have some stinker releases that get offset by the surprise hits.

Ya, give me both please.
- Comment on How gamers were nickel and dimed in 80s and 90s (besides arcades) 1 month ago:
Yes, it would be 8477. It wasn’t uncommon to see the number only version beside or below the word version. They are mostly there to make it easier to remember the phone number, since having a list of contacts wasn’t nearly as common back then, at least as a kid.
- Comment on Meta is removing its Messenger apps for Windows and macOS 1 month ago:
Have to boost those Facebook page visit numbers!
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 month ago:
I may have mixed up which one is which. My point was more that if one is to use the old characters for th, they should at least use the correct one for each.
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 month ago:
Think and thing should be using eth, not thorn. Different th sounds.
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 2 months ago:
I haven’t subbed to gamepads for years because I knew this would eventually happen. Gamepass was designed to get people used to not purchasing games and instead letting them come to them. Subscribers now have to chose between paying even more each month or losing access to the library of games available to them.
- Comment on Contractor Used Classified CIA Systems as ‘His Own Personal Google’ 2 months ago:
Everyone that has access to sensitive information should know that anything they do can and will be logged. Its usually just a matter of time before you get caught.
- Comment on American Truck Simulator/ Euro Truck Sim coming to consoles 3 months ago:
Not too surprised. They have really improved their controller support over the last few years. I am able to play the game without issue with my HTPC using a controller.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 players are crying out for a 'real' server browser, and it's about time we demanded the basic FPS feature that Call of Duty killed 3 months ago:
It would be nice if we had both options. Let peoe matchmake for the default experience and let those that prefer custom servers to use those instead. There are problems with using only community hosted servers, such as game rules and less ideal admins.
That behind said, the longetivity that community servers offer is likely the reason they have been scrapped by EA. They want everyone to move to the next title that comes out like what people so with CoD.
- Comment on Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics 3 months ago:
Next 3.5 years if we are lucky.
- Comment on Microsoft CFO calls for 'intensity' in an internal memo, after blowout earnings 4 months ago:
That is how it has been for a long time at Microsoft. They know Enterprise is where the money is, it hasn’t stopped them from trying to venture out into other areas tho.
- Comment on The Age-Checked Internet Has Arrived 4 months ago:
They are allowed to chill their own speech. The government does not have the right to restrict speech, at least in the US.
- Comment on Massistant - new tool used by Chinese government to spy on seized phones 4 months ago:
True, but some people may not have a choice because of work or family.
- Comment on Delta moves toward eliminating set prices in favor of AI that determines how much you personally will pay for a ticket 4 months ago:
Unfortunately the other big airlines in the country will do this soon after seeing its success.
