- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 2 weeks ago:
Oh I see. In my head, the 10% of men weren’t having sex with 100% of women either way.
I assumed the number of partners they had wouldn’t change.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 2 weeks ago:
Idk why I got downvoted. I just don’t understand, I’m not trying to make a point.
I meant the 10% of men aren’t having more sex to make up for the 90% that are on birth control. They would be having the same amount of sex either way.
Maybe I’m over thinking it.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 2 weeks ago:
I don’t understand you logic. Are you saying the remaining 10% of men would impregnate a disproportionate amount of women?

Low Level Learning has a good video in TP-Link. Even if they aren’t malicious, they have refused to fix obvious exploits for decades.
- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 2 weeks ago:
With the OJ thing and with the Ok City thing, it’s really just bits and pieces of memory. I remember the police sketch of the bomber but I didn’t realize it was the OK City incident until I was older and I saw the sketch again.
The Princess Diana thing is the first time I can remember understanding as well as real news coverage. I would have been around 9 or 10 at the time too.
- Comment on What's your answer? And in the picture which news story is being reported? 2 weeks ago:
I remember OJ’s Bronco on the news. I would have been 6yo. I also remember OK City Bombing a year later. Then I don’t remember much news until Princess Diana’s death.
After that I remember a lot of news stories.
- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t get why HD tv was relevant at all. I really did not understand that at all.
Then I got glasses.
I suspect 4k matters for screens of a certain size or if you sit really close, but most of us don’t so it doesn’t matter.
- Comment on Man Alarmed to Discover His Smart Vacuum Was Broadcasting a Secret Map of His House 3 weeks ago:
On paper all of this stuff is a great idea that would make our appliances more functional.
In reality, this is sold to our corporate overlords so they can slap an ad on your refrigerator and sell you more plastic waste.

I say this in his voice all the time. This is my new favorite picture.
- Comment on CNC 3 weeks ago:
I had to come to the comments to find out what she meant. CNC fabrication was the only thing I could think of.

- Comment on People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads 5 weeks ago:
Smart Home is really good for me bc I have trouble remembering things, but I’m for building my own and running it on my own server vs using corporate bullshit.
- Comment on People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads 5 weeks ago:
I get that we should expect shit like this from Amazon but at the same time, they bought something and the maker completely changed how the device worked after they bought it.
I’d be pissed too. We have to hold these companies accountable.
- Comment on Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way 5 weeks ago:
I kinda think a phone is the one thing that should come with cables. For most people, it is their only device. Nothing else should come with cables.
- Comment on Investors are making up the highest share of homebuyers in 5 years 5 weeks ago:
I get letters from realtors asking me to sell mine to their “client”. I’m sure they are investors so they can fuck off. I’ll take less money to make sure a family gets my house when sell.

Just use a mouse pad.
- Comment on "Valve must stop making excuses": Steam under fire for "significant price disparity for PC games," causing regional pricing that's "often 20% to 30% higher than the dollar equivalent" 1 month ago:
YouTube charges ≈$1.50 USD in some countries and charges $14 USD in the United States. I just thought this was standard. Shitty, but normal.

Looks like there are at least 7 of us reading these! I like them! I think it’s interesting but I also greatly appreciate the transparency as a donor.
- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 1 month ago:
I used to get something like all the time, even when I already paid for Game Pass.
- Comment on America could have avoided all of this with a functional justice system 1 month ago:
The fact that the other two branches decide the third branch’s members makes no sense. Congress doesn’t decide the president and the president doesn’t pick senators. So why does the president pick the judges and congress vote on them?
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 1 month ago:
I understand, but I do want to support devs, especially indie devs, when u can. That’s why I have no qualms about canceling an expensive service and putting that money directly in their hands when it’s possible
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 1 month ago:
I canceled. I don’t want the features they added. I don’t even use all the features they charge me for now. I just want to be able to try out so new games every so often. I’ll take the $30 I save and buy those same games, probably with some money leftover
