This reminds me of Galadriel’s speech when Frodo offered her the ring.
- Comment on Cider is done, cheers 1 week ago:
We used to buy our cider from the Dicken’s family. /s
- Comment on Instead of convincing us digital-only games are secretly a good thing, Sony was just caught testing dynamic pricing again on PlayStation 5 2 weeks ago:
Eventually everyone will get pushed back to Solitaire, Monopoly or Risk. They’ll soon discover that it’s way more engaging and fulfilling than the enshittified tech crap they try to pass off as entertainment nowadays.
- Comment on What is your cloud backup solution? 3 weeks ago:
I use physical drives that I backup and swap weekly. I’m not a business and this is good enough for the things I want to save, in case everything goes BOOM! I was probably one of the first to say “A Cloud? That would be just someone else’s computer. Why would you store your valuable data in somebody else’s computer? That makes no sense!”
- Comment on How can i teach myself to contribute to these projects? 1 month ago:
Train yourself on the tech and you’ll be able to contribute more. Also, you are contributing greatly already by making posts like this.
- Comment on I really want people to learn that laws don't exist in nature 1 month ago:
Most people used to have an internal moral code that would lead them down the road of life. It seems that internal moral code has been replaced with “getting money, no matter how”.
- Comment on Linus Torvalds to critics of AI coding in Linux: "Fork it. Or just walk away." 2 months ago:
Sorry, I don’t follow the money.
- Comment on Linus Torvalds to critics of AI coding in Linux: "Fork it. Or just walk away." 2 months ago:
What about the third option? Stay, but don’t pay to use an “AI” service.
- Comment on What a time in history... 2 months ago:
Those damn flute ’n roll degenerate hippies! /s
- Comment on I could go for that right now 2 months ago:
“Take a trip to the seaside, it’ll cure what ails you.” “Doctor, I cannot afford that.” “Leeches it is then!”
- Comment on “What do you mean you don’t know the year Constantinople fell off the top of your head?” 2 months ago:
Yeah! Well then answer me this…When did Istanbul rise?! /s
- Comment on Wall Street Is Pivoting From Solar To Solar Plus Storage 2 months ago:
I’m guessing “Wall Street” in the title? Who has time to read the articles now that the media is billionaire-owned? Nothing more than an old man crackpot rant. You should just ignore shit like this, not academically dissect it.
- Comment on Wall Street Is Pivoting From Solar To Solar Plus Storage 2 months ago:
Fuck wall street and the broken stock markets. Nowadays they are nothing more than toys for the idle rich.
- Comment on What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse? 3 months ago:
I hope to avoid the apocalypse, Armageddon and black Friday but I know I must eventually succumb to time.
- Comment on Anyone have one or two anime that they watched and were surprised it wasn’t more popular? 3 months ago:
“One Punch Man” and “Vash the Stampede” (Trigun?).
- Comment on New York's 3D printer law is NOT gun control; it's just.... control. 3 months ago:
In Canada you can buy beer or make your own beer. Should that logic be extended to guns?
- Comment on UK wind farms generate a record 22.7 GW of power on a single day 10 months ago:
Why is it that alternate energies or alternate foods always cost exactly what the former energies or food costs, for the citizens? Is “cheaper alternative” a never-ending scam?
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 10 months ago:
I didn’t think it was easy and there are always naysayers, no matter what.
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 11 months ago:
Well, I don’t need saving, but others do. There is no such thing as a superhero but I agree…there is lots of bureaucracy and administration! Going through proper channels while the world burns is not something I put a whole lot of faith in when the first knee-jerk response to anything is the economic cost. Sometimes the people have to get involved, not the systems (which are decidedly lacking nowadays).
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 11 months ago:
Having a purpose makes us thrive. In some cases, it could be work.
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: “Working from home makes us thrive” 11 months ago:
Now we need a genius architect to covert all of that office space into homes for the homeless. That includes changing any laws that would prevent that from happening.
