- Comment on Microplastics will be the "boomers all have lead poisoning" of millennials 2 days ago:
Most likely its the same reason blood donation lowers microplastic levels in blood. Production of new cells that aren’t tainted with it. A woman’s blood volume increases by 40% during pregnancy. Of course ill freely admit thats just a hypothesis and you’re probably right, there would be benefit into studying it.
- Comment on How come nobody does anything about North Korea? 2 days ago:
Depends if we get the Scandinavian model out of it. Sure would be nice to not worry about well, everything.
- Comment on Star Wars is an ode to the stupidest use of battle lasers 3 days ago:
I mean… they do take pause when a Mandalorian is shooting. They make block lasers but putting a lightsaber in front of a slug 6 inches from your face just turns you into Swiss cheese.
Also, their flamethrowers. A lot of mandalorian weapons were utilized solely to counter force users.
- Comment on Exclusive: Evidence of cell phone surveillance detected at anti-ICE protest 4 days ago:
Pretty sure the one thing to say about fascism besides it being authoritarian is that it wants corporate control. Mussolini was debating calling it Corporatism.
- Comment on My world is so much better because of immigrants 5 days ago:
Because if they paid into it, but don’t file then the government got money it won’t have to refund. A lot less risky than asking to pay your refund.
- Comment on *Now you're playing with power!* 1 week ago:
A game genie and action replay on one unit? I seem to recall that being a very bad idea.
- Comment on Republican Pride 1 week ago:
I agree wholeheartedly.
- Comment on Republican Pride 1 week ago:
Fuck those traitors. Part of loving your country is wanting it to get better, theyre constantly making it worse. I refuse to attribute patriotism to a party of seditionists.
- Comment on Look out its the D*tch 1 week ago:
Average for the US is 5’10" apparently, but given our melting pot status id still say it was pretty tall.
- Comment on Its likely a very large percentage of people would choose to have been born earlier than they were if given the choice. 1 week ago:
That makes more sense than what I was imagining by a mile, you’re probably right.

Stayed white? What do you mean by that?
- Comment on THE FINALS is getting new kernel-based anti-cheat, likely to break it on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck 1 week ago:
Didn’t this game have kernel level anti cheat already? I feel like I heard criticisms about that near launch.
- Comment on We really don't want to talk about our problems 1 week ago:
Nope, I meant everyone.
- Comment on We really don't want to talk about our problems 1 week ago:
Without giving away my age (But I do predates smart phones and home internet use), I’ve found men are perfectly fine with venting assuming the setting is right. Small group? Beer? Sure. Something embarrassing happens in the moment? Not so much.
Its everyone but your male friends who will give you shit for showing any emotion but anger.
- Comment on Blade and Phoenix are coming to Marvel Rivals this July in Season 3, along with rumoured "anti-heal" mechanics 2 weeks ago:
No. It prevents healing. In games like this its pretty unbalanced.
Then again it allows another avenue to shut down a 12 second kpop concert.
- Comment on Trump says 'very wealthy' group to buy TikTok 2 weeks ago:
Right before it went down i started getting loads of right wing propaganda. When they got their “stay of execution” I never bothered redownloading it due to that.
- Comment on Square Enix acknowledges Expedition 33 success as inspiration for next Final Fantasy as turn-based is still beloved by gamers 2 weeks ago:
I mean the tactics and 9 remake are still coming.
- Comment on Pakistan to nominate Donald Trump for Nobel peace prize 3 weeks ago:
While I agree Obama should have never gotten one (Before he ever really did anything besides not be Bush) and I’d hope they regret it given the uptick in drone strikes…
Let’s not pretend Trump ain’t a few steps down.
- Comment on A reboot of the X-Files but this time Scully is always right. Everything has a totally rational explanation and Mulder slowly looses his believe in the supernatural. 3 weeks ago:
I mean executive idiocy is the reason for a good portion of stupid decisions in every field. How we let coloring book majors be the most listened to and hold the most authoritive positions is a large blackmark on our society.

Hannibal was fucking amazing and I agree, both Gillian Anderson and Mads Mikkaelson were amazing in it.

So serious scooby doo.
As long as Gillian Anderson reprises her role… sign me up.
- Comment on Millions of Americans Who Have Waited Decades for Fast Internet Connections Will Keep Waiting After the Trump Administration Threw a $42 Billion High-Speed Internet Program Into Disarray. 3 weeks ago:
Highest I’ve ever gotten was 200 down/10 up. My current is 50 down/10 up.
I pretty much always pay for the highest grade service in the area. Each time I’ve bought a home, I’ve researched the ISPs that service it and that also affected what the homes value was to me.
- Comment on AI CEO – Replace Your Boss Before They Replace You 3 weeks ago:
I mean honestly… delamain was honest. Which absolutely was better than 99% of night city. You get shot? Yeah he won’t take you to the hospital if his client paid him to take you to location z, but you knew that before getting in.
You get the creds for the primo package yourself though? You got it made choom.
- Comment on What the fuck 3 weeks ago:
Someone’s nitrocellulose strip got printed on multiple times…
Im not even sure how you could accidentally do that with LFA assembly, but admittedly I’ve only ever used small scale “roller” machines or, even worse, made the capture/detection lines by hand.
- Comment on Founder of 23andMe buys back company out of bankruptcy auction 4 weeks ago:
What does, “I bet…” mean to you? You’re welcome to find some numbers if you know how to evaluate P values, it was an expression but hell, name the price of the bet. Lol
- Comment on Founder of 23andMe buys back company out of bankruptcy auction 4 weeks ago:
I bet there’s far more cases of homeless and suicide due to a lost job than due to a shareholder losing value in one company’s stock.
- Comment on The Plane That Crashed Yesterday Was the Same One a Dead Boeing Whistleblower Warned About 4 weeks ago:
Assassinations due to the ruling class shutting someone up. This guy, Epstein, etc.
- Comment on Massive internet outage reported: Google services, Cloudflare, Character.AI among dozens of services impacted 4 weeks ago:
Is that a bash reference? Jesus im old
- Comment on Been a good couple of years 4 weeks ago:
Because reddit is mostly bots and shills now. Lemmy will be up and coming soon and then it’ll be even more astroturfed due to how easy it easy to do that on this platform.
