- Comment on Video games are losing the "attention war" to gambling, porn, and crypto, according to industry report 6 days ago:
*shitty overmonetized slopgames, also known as AAA games are losing the “attention war”. The indie and AA scene is blooming.
- Comment on Microsoft is withdrawing support for older printers' drivers 1 week ago:
Wrong, old printers are the only ones that were built to last and are easier to maintain.
- Comment on smoooooth 1 week ago:
One could also say that the lack of a mass extinction event is preventing appearance and evolution of many more unique and beautiful things.
The end of one era is not “the end”, but merely the start of another era.
- Comment on Why all Animes are made in Japan? 1 week ago:
“Why yes I do watch anime, just the other week I started rewatching Scooby Doo!”
- Comment on Give your Matrix account a Discord UI with Commet 2 weeks ago:
Thank you very much for these links. I really like the ideas Matrix + Element, and I think they have the best shot of making something very usable. Hopefully this gets implemented one day and I can actually make the switch!
- Comment on Give your Matrix account a Discord UI with Commet 2 weeks ago:
Agreed, but metadata not being encrypted remains a fact. Sure, metadata of a single message might not mean much, but when combined with metadata of many messages from many users you can find out a lot about a person and their habits. Especially when cross-referencing with other data sources (social media of other users, phone location, etc.).
- Comment on Give your Matrix account a Discord UI with Commet 2 weeks ago:
Message metadata - such as sender, recipient, device ID, and timestamps - is not encrypted at the transport layer, and in many cases remains visible to the homeserver
- Comment on Give your Matrix account a Discord UI with Commet 2 weeks ago:
If the Matrix protocol actually implemented E2E encryption properly I would love to use something like this.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 Reportedly Delayed Due to Steam Machine Price, Leak Claims 2 months ago:
I’m guessing they want to bundle it with the machine and have it as a sort of “demo” game.

Top it off by not using powers either, most enjoyable playthrough I’ve had.
- Comment on Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords 3 months ago:
Everything you said is correct, but you misunderstood my point. I was referring to the fact that Google/Apple/whatever would hold your private key. In practical terms, it is barely different from the existing “Sign in with Google/Apple/whatever”.
- Comment on Looking to buy a cheap but best first 3d printer. Ender3 V3, CR-10 SE, or something else? 3 months ago:
I got an Ender 3 V3 KE. I am long past obsessing with 3D printing but it bleeds into my other hobbies or fixing things around the house.
“I need a plastic thing that is this-this-and-this dimensions…” I model it in FreeCAD, do a few test prints, adjust my design and re-print until satisfied.
A 3D printer became a tool that I use a couple of times per month.

Cool, they know the hash to that one service I signed up with them. Not every account ever.

- Comment on Choosing my first printer is driving me mad. 5 months ago:
For yout needs, a QIDI plus 4 will fit the bill. Large volume, CoreXY, enclosed with chamber heater, their AMS-equivalent sold separately.
Avoid Bambu lab due to their rugpull practices and general fucking over of customers.

- Comment on ‘You never want to leave:’ TikTok employees raise concerns about the app’s impact on teens in newly unsealed video 6 months ago:
Mark Rober sold out to a content company a couple of years ago, that’s why. Before that he used to be an actually good engineering channel. These days it is mostly just sponsored slop.
The closest alternative I can recommend is Stuff Made Here.

You’re sure he’s being genuine with no ulterior motive?
- Comment on Japan emperor expresses 'deep remorse' 80 years after WWII 6 months ago:
Okay, but why? Is there a scandal he’s trying to distract from?

That was advertised.
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 6 months ago:
Not my problem. If it says 20%, it should be 20%. For trying to pull shit like this it is going to be a 0% from me.
- Comment on 'Consumers are not okay with okay': Take-Two boss says BioShock 4 is taking so long because the company's goal is 'to make the best entertainment, not necessarily the most entertainment' 6 months ago:
Ah, so 2k it’s like the ship of Theseus. Except they’ve blown up the original one and replaced it with a crude replica.
- Comment on Gen Z Is Cutting Back On Video Game Purchases 6 months ago:
If you want a medival semi-sim with amazing Monty-pythonesque writing, check Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. I’m honestly split between it and 33 for my GOTY.

Is it theoretically possible to shoot something through the ring? Or does the even horizon completely envelop it?
