- Comment on Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products 2 weeks ago:
The only time that I use Amazon now is when I cannot get the item that I need either in the city that I live in first or another online retailer. My Amazon spending as decreased significantly since I left prime in January of 2025.
- Comment on Do you ever feel guilty for trying to sign up for government assistance programs? 4 weeks ago:
No. I pay taxes while using none of those programs and those programs are there to give people a hand up who are struggling. You deserve a roof over your head, a warm & safe place to sleep, clean water to drink and bathe, and decent food to eat. You are human and trying to meet your basic needs. People who have more can support those who have less. Simple.
- Comment on Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, no. Companies don’t get to scan my face or ID. You know they are selling your data.
- Comment on Meta to test premium subscriptions on Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp 1 month ago:
Yet another reason to avoid Meta platforms.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO warns that we must 'do something useful' with AI or they'll lose 'social permission' to burn electricity on it 1 month ago:
My sole use for AI has been troubleshooting computer issues. I will say that AI often does a better job than first line tech support when prompted correctly. That being said, I am a tech nerd who knows more than the average computer user that is not in the IT industry. There will always be a reason for human tech support tiers for people who cannot prompt AI correctly, but still need their stuff to work. I personally don’t want AI invading my life any further.
- Comment on Microsoft kills official way to activate windows without internet 2 months ago:
This garbage makes me so glad I switched to Linux Mint. Gaming has been just fine. Sure there have been a few hurdles, but they were well-worth spending time on as Microsoft continues this foolishness.
- Comment on Energy drinks 3 months ago:
WOW. That can’t taste good…or be very good for human consumption.
- Comment on Uhm 6 months ago:
Hahaha! Wow. What an anatomical mess. More proof that AI is only as good as it’s programming. Again why I trust AI as far as I can throw it.
- Comment on Report: Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt your data 6 months ago:
The 24H2 update would not install on a brand new prebuilt PC that I bought for my parents. I contacted both the manufacturer and Microsoft and spent too many hours troubleshooting before I gave up and returned it to where I bought it as defective. Back to the drawing board for a replacement PC for my parents.

I think you are making the right decision for you. I have watched a lot of people struggle after having children they did not plan for. If you know you are not and likely will never be interested in having children, getting a vasectomy is right for you.
That being said, if things change down the road, you can always foster, adopt, or attempt to have the vasectomy reversed – the last option is not guaranteed though.
- Comment on Ubisoft's annual report dictates that the consumers are the problem 7 months ago:
Sounds like someone is upset that they cannot appease their shareholders by selling uninteresting video games riddled with microtransactions and cash grabs. I think that its time their leadership revisit the Agile Manifesto.
