We should have figured when he kept doing the double-jerk-off dance to YMCA at his rallies lmao
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
stable
SteamOS is by far the least stable experience I’ve ever had out of all consoles and handhelds I remember owning. Linux phone would be nice though. - Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 1 day ago:
Same. Companies can just halt trading of their stock?
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 3 days ago:
He’s just another fat dragon who got rich exploiting people through ownership of capital. Then he got children hooked on gambling because one billion wasn’t enough.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 3 days ago:
My Deck definitely had its fair share of hardware issues when I got it. Ended up getting a replacement for a faulty GPU, but the WiFi card also had its issues and kept disconnecting constantly. It was a first year LCD Deck though, so maybe they’re better now. I also used to be in a Steam Deck discord and the number of users reporting hardware (and software) trouble seemed fairly high there too.
Valve makes up for these issues with above average customer service, but in an unsupported country I’d for sure avoid early adopting their hardware.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 3 days ago:
No warranty in unsupported countries, and from what I’ve seen of Valve’s quality control you probably wouldn’t want to risk that.
- Comment on Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords 5 days ago:
Cops also love them because they make getting access to your entire phone including all accounts simple as cake if you use fingerprint/faceID to unlock your device.

- Comment on How Old We're You when You Learned the Word, "Fascist"? 6 days ago:
Definitely 13 because I remember looking the word up after hearing it in song from a band I discovered that exact year.

- Comment on Why have so many services started using single-factor passwordless authentication in the last little while? 2 weeks ago:
I’m paranoid so I view passkeys and similar streamlined login mechanisms as a way to make it easy for police to access your entire digital life once they unlock your phone. This is why manufacturers started pushing biometric unlocking so hard. Once someone has access to your person and phone they no longer need PINs or passwords to gain access to everything.
- Comment on When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game? 2 weeks ago:
The Dragon Quest games make me laugh all the time. The NPC dialogues are beautifully written, and frequently have little humorous elements in them. The monster designs and animations are also often funny in their own ways. Can’t recommend these games enough.

Zionist
- Comment on Why do conservatives define being fascist solely as "being violent?" 2 months ago:
Because conservatives don’t argue in good faith and at this point the only way you should communicate with them is with bricks
- Comment on Many of the younger generations of folks don't know what it's like to watch TV series out of order by virtue of channel surfing on live TV and grabbing random episodes here and there 2 months ago:
Alternatively 90s.myretrotvs.com for real TV recordings you can flip through
- Comment on All 54 lost clickwheel iPod games have now been preserved for posterity 2 months ago:
I’ve been complaining about no longer having access to the original Sonic game for iPod for years! There wasn’t even a way to pirate it up until now. I’m excited to finally replay it with the controls I first learned Sonic on.
- Comment on What are some franchises with characters that personify countries? 2 months ago:
Punch-Out! Wii has you fighting caricatures of various nationalities
- Comment on Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store 2 months ago:
Right now? Yeah, its very easy to do, and there’s a download link for it included in GrapheneOS’s preinstalled app-store.
I am however worried that eventually Google will make running custom software (apks, alternate firmwares) so difficult that development for those will stop long term.

I switched my 6a to GrapheneOS a few weeks ago and the battery lasts like twice as long, its unreal.

Sure ;)
- Comment on One gamer got so tired of waiting for Valve, he made his own 'Steam Controller 2' out of Steam Deck parts, and it even splits in half like Switch Joy-Cons 4 months ago:
2 analog sticks, input layout parity with Steam Deck, USB-C I guess.
- Comment on YSK: Non-violent protests are 2x likely to succeed and no non-violent movement that has involved more than 3.5% of the country population has ever failed 5 months ago:
100% agreed, this line of arguing is how they’re trying to keep us docile.
This book changed my opinion on non-violent resistance movements a few years ago. Highly recommended.

- Comment on Whatever happened to cheap eReaders? – Terence Eden’s Blog 5 months ago:
Keeping it offline is 100% the right call. My 250€ Kindle Oasis (1st Gen) became unusably slow after the last major update. Constantly freezes. This was marketed as a premium device, and you can’t even upgrade because Amazon killed the line. My next e-reader won’t be Amazon, but it sucks that I’ll lose all the notes I’ve had on there since I got my first Kindle in 2009.
