- Comment on EA's new owners are making "a huge bet" on generative AI cost-cutting to help repay a $20 billion loan, claims report 1 week ago:
Thanks for the warning I guess.

How could Canada complain about anything when they’re clearly underwater?
- Comment on Become irresistible to women 1 week ago:
Honestly, I don’t think I could be with anyone who understood a single word of that wiki description.
- Comment on Cracker Barrel Outrage Was Almost Certainly Driven by Bots, Researchers Say 1 week ago:
I’ll give you a hint, the company behind the bots rhymes with Gracker Ferrel.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Invention is the mother of necessity!
- Comment on Get ready to see ads on your… Samsung refrigerator 2 weeks ago:
This was always the endgame of smart homes, creating continuous ad revenue from everything you own. It was never about consumer experience for big companies.
- Comment on Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it' 3 weeks ago:
After much careful reflection on this news, here is my response: HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I think I could have written this headline 6 years ago.
- Comment on Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11 3 weeks ago:
Help! Our unsustainable behavior of screwing over customers in the name of quarterly profits has finally caught up to us! Turns out there are long term consequences of our behavior, and now Linux can truly go toe-to-toe with Windows on a home desktop!
- Comment on The UK just took a harder stance on Banksy than genocide 3 weeks ago:
Honestly, the current wall with its ghostly silhouettes of the original art is almost as good as the original piece.
- Comment on Spotify is finally launching support for lossless music streaming 3 weeks ago:
I was the biggest fan of Spotify as soon as they started up. I was one of the first people to get early access and was a huge supporter for years.
Buy your music, own your files, never subscribe for something you can buy instead. You’re not listening to 12 new albums a year, if you can subscribe, you can pay for the files that will be yours forever. The fact that Spotify has higher quality streaming doesn’t change anything.
- Comment on xkcd #3137: Cursed Number 4 weeks ago:
Actually, this isn’t useful, so we still let it be called “math”.
- Comment on i 💚 animals. 4 weeks ago:
I love how “animals” and “engineering” are presented as equivalent in this meme, like “yeah I know these aren’t real sciences or anything but I think they’re cute!”
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 5 weeks ago:
I think I’ve spent more time waiting for Silksong in the past week than ever before.
- Comment on We are stopping shipments to the US - Kiwix 5 weeks ago:
But they’re a tech company, they don’t transport anything?
- Comment on 4011 1 month ago:
You should use 94011, way more secure.
- Comment on Coinbase CEO explains why he fired engineers who didn’t try AI immediately 1 month ago:
The dude looks like he’s unironically roleplaying his life as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong - Release Date Trailer (September 4) 1 month ago:
That trailer looks so good, it would have been worth it to wait all these years just for the trailer.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong - Release Date Trailer (September 4) 1 month ago:
I’m ready to bet you got lost in those mines without crystal heart. Amirite?
- Comment on nooo my genderinos 1 month ago:
I’m a career physicist, and I honestly have no idea what a state of matter is anymore.
- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 1 month ago:
Yes, but since it’ll run Windows, it’ll have half the battery life and half the frames at the same time!
- Comment on Real Talk 1 month ago:
If your reviewer suggests you cite another paper, it’s one of their papers and they just doxed themselves, 100% of the time.

Always have been.
- Comment on What if you had a mole of moles? 1 month ago:
I had a chemistry question in high school about a mole of moles. Everyone got it wrong because Ms. Mulder wasn’t a very good teacher, nor was she good at writing chemistry questions.
- Comment on Microsoft launches inquiry into claims Israel used its tech for mass surveillance of Palestinians 1 month ago:
How dare you use our SurveilancePro™ software for surveillance of others?!? That software was intended for us to use for surveillance, not anyone else!
- Comment on Battlefield 6 players are crying out for a 'real' server browser, and it's about time we demanded the basic FPS feature that Call of Duty killed 1 month ago:
Based on the article, a server is probably a docker container or something like it they spin up and replace each new match. Sounds to me like they deliberately designed around a system that makes a server browser impossible.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 month ago:
There’s benefits to us not tweaking privacy settings. TOR explicitly discourages it. You don’t (always) get fingerprinted by a single unique item, it’s through an ensemble of data points that companies can identify who you are. There may be 10% of users with your same font library, and 1% who has the same monitor width, and 5% with the same time zone, and voila, when you multiply those percentages, you get close to one in a couple billion, and they’ve successfully fingerprinted you.
If everyone tweaks their settings from default Firefox, you reveal more information about yourself each time. You may think you’re protecting yourself, but the reality is the opposite, you’re creating a one of a kind browser config. This is where Librewolf can really reign supreme, if we all just use stock Librewolf, no one will be unique, and everyone will be anonymous.

- Comment on I bought a £16 smartwatch just because it used USB-C 1 month ago:
Their website has a question at the bottom “Are you still interested in Pebble?” And if you click yes, it’ll show you their new models, but there’s also a button for No, which takes you to Google’s latest smart watch.
