- Comment on Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified 1 day ago:
Even if you are in need you can still help. I volunteer at a food bank every Wednesday. It is ~2 hours of my time. I also am able to take about as much food with me as I can carry. Most of the food I take I then give away to the unhoused that live in and around the park across the street from work.
I used to volunteer at a church doing food bank stuff too.
There are plenty of things you can do while you are the one in need.
- Comment on ICarly "IKiss" episode was an allegory about being a virgin 2 days ago:
Dude, seriously, you need to talk with someone, like a mental health professional. Your obsession with virginity is very concerning. If you are not already an incel, I think you are very close to becoming one.
- Comment on Are there really no stupid questions? 2 days ago:
Use of the term originates from a 19 September 2014 strip of the webcomic Wondermark by David Malki titled The Terrible Sea Lion,cwhere a character expresses a dislike of sea lions and a sea lion intrudes to repeatedly ask her to explain her statement and attempts (in an exaggeratedly civil manner) to interrogate her views, following the characters into the privacy of their own home. “Sea lion” was quickly verbed, and noting this, Malki posted on his own Wondermark site, “I’m happy that it’s resonated with so many people”.
- Comment on Sneaking snacks into the theater is objectively wrong if you are a movie fan 4 days ago:
I’m pretty sure the cast and crew get 0% of popcorn sales on their movie.
Former movie crew, can confirm, I never got my movie theater popcorn check.

Does it fit in the square hole?
- Comment on TiVo Rides Into the Sunset 5 days ago:
I remember buying a new TiVo in 2008ish and having to download the schedule manually and import it until I was able to hack it to use a wireless adapter.
It reminds of boomers who were part of the computer science world in the 70s and 80s and thinking we still use punch cards and 8" floppies. They were ahead of their peers, but got stuck there.
- Comment on TiVo Rides Into the Sunset 5 days ago:
I abandoned my TiVo in 2021 when I went to update my box that had been in storage for too long. There was no incremental update available, I would have had to send the box to TiVo for them to update it for me.
I connected my Roku that had been in storage even longer and it updated itself without any issues. It took me longer to contact TiVo customer support than it did for my Roku to update itself.
While we loved our TiVo boxes while we had them, and they were ground breaking technology, they stagnated. TiVo never kept up technically.

- Comment on I've recently turned into a blocker. 2 weeks ago:
I wish there was a hide posts option, rather than a flat out block. There are some overly prolific posters that i would like to block, but their comments are not an issue, just the 40 rapid fire posts they made.

- Comment on Open Printer is a fully open-source inkjet with DRM-free ink and no subscriptions 3 weeks ago:
Þ is a thorn. It makes a th sound, as in the or Thor, also written as þe and þor. When using a printing press most typesetters did not have a thorn, so a y was used as a replacement, causing things like ye oldde, rather than the oldde (þe oldde).
