And I looked, as he opened the sixth
sealpizza box, and behold, there was a great earthquake. And the sun became as black as sack cloth, and the moon became as blood.And the seas boiled and the skies fell.
- Comment on Doubting Your Favorite Web Search Engine 1 hour ago:
Sure, but tech bros manage to balance being idiots and influence pretty well. And for the most part, tech people prefer things that are both a money flex and perceived easing friction. Even even they don’t.
Reading HN is a constant surprise at how willingly tech people willingly don’t hold back anything. It’s nuts.

Tech people have zero idea what privacy is or should be, and desperately look for anything to make then feel elites. Paying for Kagi is a flex.
Kagi is fine, but it certainly not magic.
Qwant, Startpage, and SearXNG work well.
Ecosia is DDG (which is Bing results) as a non-profit.
Mojeek…ugh, you stupid but nice guy. You’ll get there one day.

Yessss.
Give in to your fear.

I’m marginally happy that anyone anywhere is in love. Cool beans.
Beyond that, I’d rather see people I know have happy and healthy lives. FSM knows they deserve it just as much as these two.

Maybe if we eat more cephalopods, our eyes will turn into their good eyes?
That’s how that works, right?

I’m a disappointed as you are.
I served that up like a 9 patty burger!

Is it free?
Sounds like if anything, the shirt is $8 and $21.99 is the burger.

Kids, the internet tells me that I can get 10 regular Wedny’s cheeseburgers for $27.90
So it a $2 upcharge for them to use less bad and pay the marketing team.
- Comment on T-Rex Burger 2 days ago:
$30/9 is $3.33 for just 1 cooked patty and cheese. So each of these DIY burgers of yours is maybe $3.50 -$4
How much is just a single a Wendy’s cheeseburger?
- Comment on T-Rex Burger 2 days ago:
If you want to be real, each patty is about 1/3" thick after cooking. That’s only 3 inches of meat, a joke that people need to get on immediately.
There’s probably fancy burgers with onion rings on them that are the same size or larger in your hands.

It’s probably lying on the ground. Dead. Don’t need to say nothing.

I’ve killed this man 47 million times already.
Eaten by plants and dragons.
Burned alive in lava and flames.
Crushed by rocks.
Dropped from the clouds.
Drown. Drown. Electrocuted. Drown.
Touched ever so gently by a turtle.
Does he need more?

It does when it’s dead.

Because this ad copy for sure is.

Hello, I would like 1 Class Action please.
- Comment on bmw 3 days ago:
It’s because they’re entitled dickbag drivers. Which is funny because where BMWs are more common, Audi drivers are the entitled dickbags.
If I see a black Audi, I can guarantee that it will be a dangerously bad driver.

It’s coming. Android just announced they are going to make devs ID themselves and prevent side loading, so all those great new open source front ends were just given a terminal diagnosis. For now.
The walled gardens are being walled in like medieval Carcassonne or Dubrovnik. Foreigners viewed with suspicion, only lifelong residents allowed full rights.

It’s an arms race. YT is hard to use, then someone comes up with a great new front end that works for a year, lather rinse repeat.

In like 5 years we’ll all have self-hostd LLM agents and you just send the lil’ bastard on YT to scrape the audio in higher bitrates all over again. It’ll be FINE.
I also have MP3s that are 20+years old at this point, and they were bad rips in the first place. Some of them from CDs that skipped during the rip. bitrot on this low quality MP3 I’m too lazy to re-get is on me.

But, do you mean like red clay bricks?
I mean specifically cement blocks like in the picture. I’m totally down with red clay bricks.
- Comment on The internet kind of sucks right now 5 days ago:
No, it’s a joke. Natalie was the whiny one in Facts of Life. As is having 37 Quora accounts. Quora is weird to me and I’ve never had an account. But I’ve also never had a search lead to an answer for anything on Quora that was actually correct.
- Comment on anons brother has some strong opinions 5 days ago:
Huh. Yeah, I have no problem with that, but I get you.
There’s a kind of not refined pulp paper stock that was used to make cheap paperbacks, I’ve only seen it in older books from the 50s-70s, that does that to me. Only ever ran into it a few times, but if my fingernail touches it, it’s worse than being electrocuted. Full body shivers and chills. Even thinking about it tenses me up.
You got that ASMR? Seems like there’s some overlap between things like this, like you have some things you can’t stand, some that send you into a trance, and they’re infuriatingly close sometimes.
- Comment on anons brother has some strong opinions 5 days ago:
Oh no, far more visceral. Nothing about the aesthetics.
The brick pictured makes my hands feel dry and papery. That’s from when I was a kid, so I know what that’s about. Buuuut…
There was a period where cement was used on wire frames to do sculpture - makes me want to gag. Fully repulsive to me. A tree made from cement angers me. It’s all trash to me, zero redeeming elements.
A large cement column in a building under construction? I intentionally avoid it so as not to touch it. They smell bad, too. Once painted, I’m totally fine with them.
Dry cement powder? I would rather touch fire.
It’s a sensory processing thing. Can’t explain it more than that I guess.
