  I think it’s still a bit too new for that.

  I didn’t like the lack of apps back then, but now my used apps are very limited anyway, so I probably wouldn’t really mind. Everything else about it was decently good.

  I’m not sure I’d be able to sleep through driving on the railroad tracks. I’m going to guess this person was simply incredibly fucking stupid, and thought the car would figure it out, instead of doing the bare fucking minimum of driving their goddamn 2 ton heavy death machine themself.

  There’s a very high probability that the company will shut down before they even get a working product. All the pre-order money will have been spent on “research” and “salaries”, with 80% going directly into Trump’s pockets. And there will be fuck all anyone can do to get their money back. Scammers gonna scam.

  Sure, but are they really ethnically irish because their great grandfather was from Ireland? At what point do we consider americans to be their own thing?

  It’s not like the irish, italians or the danish are ethnically pure. Some bloke on my fathers side came to Denmark from Germany in the 1800s, and before that, one of his ancestors came from france, and before that from Rome. Same shit on my mothers side.

  My point is, it’s not like european countries are monoethnic. So why don’t we view someone from Texas, as ethnically texan, when their ancestry probably dates back to 1700s Texas?

  It’s just a very foreign thing for us eurooeans. If we’re born in Italy, but some grandparent was born in Germany, we don’t consider ourself to be german in any way. We’d consider ourself italian and nothing else. It just seems so incredibly odd to even consider oneself to be german if you didn’t spend time growing up in Germany.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RuneScape studio Jagex confirms layoffs 'to reduce complexity, increase agility, and ensure we are fully focused on the areas that matter most'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t really agree with that. My reason for grinding agility was never to get stamina back faster, but to get the shortcuts. Once I got the ones I needed, It became about getting to 99.

  And with the amount of people with 99 in agility now, there is absolutely no clout to chase. Hasn’t been for 10 years really.

  It’s also not like it was made easier to 99, it just got less shitty having a low level.

  Because some asshole is standing 3 feet away from her, photographing her.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RuneScape studio Jagex confirms layoffs 'to reduce complexity, increase agility, and ensure we are fully focused on the areas that matter most'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why not? I haven’t had any issues with it so far?

  Osrs got it buffed like a year ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pull to enter, you say?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally had to put a sign on my door saying to use the god damn doorbell with an arrow pointing directly at it. The pizza guy would then call me, asking why I didn’t open when he knocked. Maybe because I can’t hear your fucking knock, which is why I bought a god damn doorbell! Fuck the public.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Gmail app will now create AI summaries whether you want them or not⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Luckily for the europeans, those agreements are unenforcable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I suppose it’s about intentions, but as someone who always looked to settle down and find the person to live the rest of my life is, a big agegap can be pretty problematic later in life.

  Like the obvious one: your partner dying while you’re still just middle aged.

  Having to take care of an old person with old person needs as a 55-65 year old.

  If they want children in a few years, OP could be 75 by the time the child moves out.

  Again, it’s all about what the intentions are, but these things are worth considering.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where there's a violence there's a way⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You need to direct that violence in the right direction. You don’t start a revolution by executing the dude taking drive through orders at burger king.

  Try kidnapping a tech from your internet provider and cut off toes every few minutes until your wifi works. I guarentee you it’ll be up an running before you get to the second foot.

  For the mods, though I know we’re not on Reddit: this is a joke.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I knew it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Quite possibly. With that in mind it was probably designed from the inside. That way there’s not much you can do about the exterior.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Then there’s a LOT of Hitlers in the making from absent fathers, children of lesbians etc. If missing a fatherly figure is what makes a person a nazi.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Researchers Scrape 2 Billion Discord Messages and Publish Them Online⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Discord is genuinely a great tool for what I used to use Skype for. Talking to my friends, and sharing dumb memes with them in a groupchat format. Companies need to learn that using it as a forum, a Q&A service, a wiki or any other information sharing purpose, is simply fucking retarded.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grieve with me⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I worked as a carpenter until a few years ago. My charging port would constantly get filled with sawdust, plasterdust and whatever other dust happened to be around that day. I ended up buying an induction charger and it has been the absolutely best purchase I’ve ever made.

  I tried solving the problem with those small cover things you can put in the port, but they would constantly fall out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Over a hundred thousand Dune Awakening players got swallowed by the sandworm | Massively Overpowered⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t mind very punishing death mechanics, but when pvp is involved I absolutely hate it. I play more than the average person, but when some sweaty ass pvp’er who plays 80 hours/week shows up, it’s just never going to be any kind of competitive fight. There is no way I will ever be able to do anything against tgat kind of player, and I’m also not in any way interested in trying. I like pve, not pvp.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And you keep denying that the republican administration is CURRENTLY actively supporting the genocide, along with imprisoning people in concentration camps. You’re not arguing in good faith, and I’m not wasting any more of my time on you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And the republicans have 70% of their policy be genocide. Not just genocide of the palestinians, but genocide of non-gender conforming people and non-straight people.

  It’s like comparing someone who doesn’t care that someone in another country is killing people, with someone who actively wants to kill people in your own back yard, and also doesn’t give a shit that someone is killing people in another country. By not voting for the first person, you’re allowing the second person do to whatever they want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem is, the other option is 70% genocide. So by not voting for the 30% genocide, you’re enabling the 70% genocide.

  Holy shit that is a bad take. The biggest turnoff in the world is someone acting like something they’re not. You also wouldn’t want to be with someone who hates you for who you are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple blocks Fortnite's return to iPhone in US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Here in Denmark we need the government 2FA to pay for our stuff online. It’s an extra identity check on the credit card to make sure the card hasn’t been stolen. We don’t do government vouchers here, because we have a very good safetynet based on a salary from the government if we’re jobless. Kinda like UBI, but you only get it if you don’t have a job, so not entirely UBI. The rate isn’t anything good, but it’s enough to survive.

  Our 2FA is used for by far most things. Like if I want to login on my phone carriers website, I’ll use the 2FA. Need to check up on my taxes? 2FA. Sign legal documents? 2FA. The way it works is, I’ve chosen a username which I write on the website login page, no password is used here. Then I open the 2FA app, login, grant access. If I try to login to a website on anything else than my phone, I need to scan a QR code displayed on the website aswell. This way I only need to remember the password for the 2FA and my username. We haven’t had any issues with security in this system in the 4,5 it’s been online.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple blocks Fortnite's return to iPhone in US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a pretty good system, if it’s any interrest it’s in Denmark.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple blocks Fortnite's return to iPhone in US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My government 2FA can’t work on those OSs. Could get a physical device that shows the code, but that’s nowhere near as practical. Without that 2FA I can’t pay online, check mail from the government, login to my bank, move my adress, change my phone plan. Everything is set up through the 2FA, which is convenient as fuck, and super safe, but requires either Apple or Android.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Netflix will show generative AI ads midway through streams in 2026⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And lets be real here for a second. It costs actual money to develop and update Plex. All these people being butthurt about no longer being able to watch everything for free are entitled as fuck. It’s okay to pay developers for their time and expertise. A carpenter expects you to pay them. A painter also expects you to pay them. A software engineer expects to be paid for their work, and they won’t if people use their software for free. If you don’t want to pay for it, download your own shit, and if you’re hosting for a lot of users, tell all the users to download their own shit.
