  Interesting. I have 5gbps fiber so I wonder if it’d be good. I’m just struggling to understand how it could be, lol. I don’t really game anymore though. Thanks for the reply!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI-Induced RAM Crunch Could Push Next PlayStation and Xbox Past 2028⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t ever used game streaming, is it seriously that latency-free that it’s worth it? I just can’t imagine that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MegaLag - The Honey Scam is Worse Than I Thought⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  His Honey videos are hopefully going down in history as one of the greatest fraud discoveries.

  When I started watching them (and he isn’t even done yet), I expected it to be bad because of PayPal. It is…so. much. worse.

  Absolutely vile practices and I look forward to lawsuits from all angles against them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A quick internet search shows that having the lid up or down doesn’t matter for bathroom surface contamination

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm there!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Holy shit thank you for this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can pets tell who's petting them without looking?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like my cat can because it rarely looks up and I just snuck up behind it. Either that or it sucks at survival (it doesn’t, it is jumpy beyond reason at almost everything else).

  I assume it’s more than the petnique though, and includes step noise and scent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think Google execs keep a secret un-enshittified version of their search engine and LLM?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  …you literally just click the menu and choose the model you want? Or is my UI different than others?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Trade Dominance Will Soon Begin to Crack⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. Unfortunately.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US Trade Dominance Will Soon Begin to Crack⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As an American, I can’t wait for the lessons learned and the death to American Exceptionalism. I look forward to reaping everything we’ve sowed due to our shitty actions (or complete lack of action).

  But also as an American I am bitter and don’t believe for a second that the 60-70% of people here that need to learn a lesson, will actually learn a lesson. I no longer believe things will change for the better within my lifetime. It sucks.

  Especially since McDonald’s hashbrowns turned to shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With how the republican party works in 10 years the presidential candidate will be an open pedophile and they will say they defeated wokeness.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m hoping in 10 years it becomes socially shameful to be a Republican and that those who are get refused business everywhere and shamed into non-existence or suicide.

  But, unfortunately, with the way things are going it is likely it’ll be the inverse.

  This article is just a ploy to get people to lose more money upwards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  AI has made being OE insanely easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Devastated PC builder orders DDR5 RAM from Amazon, receives DDR2 and some weights — counterfeit 32GB kit a worrying sign of rising return and sales fraud⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I ordered 2x32GB DDR5 on Amazon two years ago and received 1x32 and 1x8 in the same package.

  Luckily they replaced it for me completely, still wild. Can only imagine it’s going to get worse.

  See OE.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We can play that game too⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but boomers are a chunk of the reason that the rich and powerful continue to be able to grasp and maintain power.

  If boomers ceased to exist tomorrow and elections were held, I think there’d be a good swing left. Not a total swing, but substantial.

  God I loved Earthbound. Probably in my top ten to this day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Cops Are Using Flock Safety's ALPR Network to Surveil Protesters and Activists⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Any tips for quickly breaking or ruining these?

  I have a 5W laser I was going to try, but someone made a good point that random reflections / refractions could harm a nearby innocent person.

  I debated a paintball gun, but that damage isn’t really permanent enough.

  Are they starting a multi-step strategy to distance themselves ahead of midterms?

  I’m confused, if VPN use soured for that very reason, wouldn’t traffic remain roughly the same?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Betrayal ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Until I read the comments I thought this was like, “move in to my apartment” and I was so fucking confused

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Gotcha. Well, in that case, I think everyone should be cutting off more. I want to see the US economy get decimated.

  (I realize I’m coming off super aggro, but I just don’t see how else everyone here is going to wake up)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As a US citizen, I would expect the rest of the world not do anything - the fuck have we done for them? And even if things had been done at some point, why rock the boat now?

  Let the US collapse, boycott our exports, ridicule Trump when he travels. Fuck this country, let it burn.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How racing makes its deadliest moments disappear⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife is very into horses, we have horses, she shows horses, she trains horses.

  She hates anything and everything around horse racing (and other parts of horse sport like that burning feet one).

  It. Is. Brutal. And disgusting. It is millionaires and billionaires jerking each other off while the horses and those beneath them suffer and die.

  I’ve followed her on YouTube (sorry), if I lived there, she’d have my vote.

  The entire dem party needs more of people like her.
