- Comment on Why does most American's give shit to the French when if not for them we would have lost the revolution? 2 days ago:
Americans forget that France was basically our only European ally for a very long time, while we fought the British twice. Memories of what happened in WWII, though, remain strong and color American perception. It’s mostly harmless joking based on stereotypes. The French are far more likely to go their own way compared to the British, including in areas of culture, and that annoys some people. Hence, the “freedom fries” kerfuffle during the 2003 Iraq war.

- Comment on Windows 11 just lost 5% market share in two months despite Windows 10 losing support. 1 week ago:
Not an issue for me with my old machines that can’t run Windows 11. Bit of a security risk, obviously, but it doesn’t aggravate me every time I use it.

I can smell this photo. It is not pleasant.
- Comment on Drug dealers hate this one weird trick! 2 weeks ago:
Looking at the ingredients, there’s nothing in these that seems unsuitable for humans. But the directions say to dissolve half the package in 55 gallons of water, so have fun trying to figure out how much to put in your liter water bottle.

Is this implying pugs are some kind of hideous monstrosity that spits in the face of god? When it’s our fault they’re like that?

- Comment on (TW) Phishing mail in 2026 5 weeks ago:
This is pretty good. The spelling and grammar are fine, and to be honest, the concept is sadly believable given how corporations have bowed down to Trump and MAGA.

I’m still on Sequoia and have no plans to upgrade. I’m hoping the departure of Alan Dye will result in something not so awful for the next OS. Then I might upgrade.

- Comment on Caw caw 5 weeks ago:
A lot of elderly folks who are still living independently go to a podiatrist for nail trims since they lack the flexibility to do it themselves. This does happen in nursing homes, just not as often, especially if the person isn’t capable of requesting it themselves.
