- Comment on I really want people to learn that laws don't exist in nature 4 days 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." 3 weeks ago:
What about the third option? Stay, but don’t pay to use an “AI” service.

Yeah! Well then answer me this…When did Istanbul rise?! /s
- Comment on Wall Street Is Pivoting From Solar To Solar Plus Storage 1 month 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 1 month ago:
Fuck wall street and the broken stock markets. Nowadays they are nothing more than toys for the idle rich.

- Comment on I read every day but rarely have my e-reader on me — so I built a self-hosted EPUB library that syncs my reading position between my Kobo and my phone 2 months ago:
I prefer trade paperbacks over the initial first-run hardcovers because they are easier to carry around. I will carry around a big old heavy hardcover if there is no paperback though. The only drawback with this is, sometimes there is not enough light to read, and the book machines provide that.

- Comment on Pluto is still a planet, just a dwarf one 2 months ago:
What about in the old myths where Pluto, Neptune, Mars were used as god’s names? Weren’t they referring to the planets back then?

- Comment on Strava just killed its free API, will require a subscription if you want to build on top of it 2 months ago:
Whether it’s a back-alley transaction or a multinational corporation transaction “the first one is free” is a marketing tactic that seems to work time and time again.
- Comment on New York's 3D printer law is NOT gun control; it's just.... control. 2 months ago:
In Canada you can buy beer or make your own beer. Should that logic be extended to guns?
- Comment on People who are staying on Plex, have you tried Jellyfin? What about it do you not prefer? (real question) 2 months ago:
I use Plex to save money on plumbers because I cannot solder. Plex gives me the ability to exact repairs myself.
- Comment on The way "self-checkout" has been pushed on us is nothing short of injustice 2 months ago:
I’ve waited in register lines while people hurry through the self-checkout like lightening. I refuse to self-checkout unless there is an automatic 10% discount. My labour means something.
- Comment on The way "self-checkout" has been pushed on us is nothing short of injustice 2 months ago:
To each their own. Some folk prefer a bit of banter and the human touch.
- Comment on UK wind farms generate a record 22.7 GW of power on a single day 8 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” 9 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” 9 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” 9 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” 9 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.
