Nice tip! Thank you!

People keep saying this but I don’t understand how it works at all.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 boss tells players "please get a refund from Steam if you aren't happy" as Randy Pitchford continues his very public crashout over the FPS's performance woes 5 days ago:
Can someone find an excuse for how this behaviour is not just extremely short sighted / plain stupid?
It’s not. It works because he’s always operated like this and keeps getting away with it. People keep sucking up his garbage games so why should he change?
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 1 week ago:
I don’t have bugs with Remnant, it just doesn’t perform all that well without all the AI up scaling and whatnot. I think it’s more of an optimisation problem than anything else.
I’ve a friend who experiences problems after ~40 minutes of play time though, the frame rate just tanks.

But the app/widget spyware is what they want you to run.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 1 week ago:
I’ve played two games (off the top of my head) that run UE5. Remnant II and Payday 3. Both have performance problems.
Remnant II is just overall poorly optimised. Payday 3 has weird random hitches. Granted they seem like they might be server side because when I get them my friend does too, almost simultaneously, and vice-versa.

I respect the dead the same way Hoots and Caelan Conrad do. I wonder if small face man from Toilet Paper USA will get an episode.

I’ve had it going for months now. Navidrome is very reliable and with docker, super easy to update should you so please.
The rolling cost is my internet, which I’d have whether I’d have Navidrome or not.

Another tip; Orion, the browser developed by Kagi can install proper Firefox extensions. You can have the real full uBlock Origin extension in the browser.
- Comment on In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses 3 weeks ago:
My comment is in the context of this
Also interesting that we’re ignoring something here – big tech is chasing cheap sources of clean energy. Don’t we want cheap, clean energy?
- Comment on In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses 4 weeks ago:
I’m not saying it is. I’m saying that predatory companies shouldn’t run critical infrastructure.
- Comment on In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses 4 weeks ago:
Well, patents and what have you are a thing. I’m mostly thinking that I wouldn’t want e.g. Facebook to run any nuclear reactors or energy grids. That’s something I prefer the government does.
- Comment on 95% of Companies See ‘Zero Return’ on $30 Billion Generative AI Spend, MIT Report Finds 4 weeks ago:
Highly recommended. Children of Ruin was hella spooky, and Children of Memory had me crying a lot. Good stories!
- Comment on In a first, Google has released data on how much energy an AI prompt uses 4 weeks ago:
Sure we do. Do we want the big tech corporations to hold the reins of that though?
- Comment on 95% of Companies See ‘Zero Return’ on $30 Billion Generative AI Spend, MIT Report Finds 4 weeks ago:
The Children of Time series by Adrian Tchaikovsky also explores this. Particularly the third book, Children of Memory.
Think it’s one of my favourite books. It was really good. The things I’d do to be able to experience it for the first time again.
- Comment on Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server? 4 weeks ago:
When I set up Navidrome I had no idea jellyfin could do music too. Pretty happy with them separate though. Not for any particular reason, they both do their jobs really well.

Think it grew popular in the U.S. as an anti-masturbation thing. There were a LOT of those. This Kellog man was super into restricting masturbation and made cornflakes because a bland and unexciting meal would aid in preventing that.
To be fair, the colonisers were primarily religious puritans whose views were too extreme for Europe, hence why they sought new lands. It’s almost like a cult.

I wish I was still capable of the same belief in the goodness of others.
- Comment on Dennis Prager in Harlem 4 weeks ago:
Wow. That was an idea I never needed put in my brain. I think that perhaps I should stop using the internet.

- Comment on Codeberg: army of AI crawlers are extremely slowing us; AI crawlers learned how to solve the Anubis challenges. 4 weeks ago:
Given that they already ignore robots.txt I don’t think we can assume any sort of good manners on their part. These AI crawlers are like locusts, scouring and eating everything in their path,
- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 4 weeks ago:
It’s never ever been about the children. Every time someone uses children as a meat shield for their arguments it’s because arguing against it is hard.
“We need to execute all criminals to protect the children!l”
“That doesn’t sound like a good idea.”
“What? You’d support a rapist pedophile over an innocent child? You support pedos??” - Comment on Chat Control is back & we've got two months to stop the EU CSAM scanning plans. 5 weeks ago:
It’s not the EU that will be scanning. Given that the scans will largely be aided by “AI”, private corporations will have access to all communications.

Yeah, I wouldn’t say that a warrant is the same as an invite. Legally it allows them to enter, but I’m not convinced that the laws of magic bend to the laws of man.
