  My woke ass actually feels empathy for others, so of course I am depressed watching them get disappeared.

  Oh I have an Ally. One of the big reasons I wasn’t going to get an S2. I was just about to get a bigger battery for it when I got the S2 gifted to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved my Switch but wasn’t planning on getting a 2 due to cost of device and new games. I was gifted one for Xmas, and while I enjoy it, outside Mario Kart (that came with it) I haven’t found a new title made specifically for S2 that I wouldn’t buy for the other consoles or PC. I’m just playing some older catalog stuff, or games that I would prefer on the go. There’s no new Zelda, Mario, Splatoon, nothing 1st party to keep driving a console. It boggles my mind they didn’t have more 1st party lined up for the first year of launch

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is school cafeteria food in America trash?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It absolutely depends on where the funding comes from. I know someone who works student nutrition for a school district that doesn’t receive state funds, it’s all county school tax funded. They chose to contract out to a company that provides the food. Usually this is a recipe for disaster, but they actually provide high quality food. All fruit or vegetables are fresh, not frozen or canned. All food is prepared fresh daily, no microwaves. Their food is so good, every employee that she knows, eats the food too. This is in stark contrast to prison food level quality found in many districts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I worked at Office Depot. I had a customer call in and ask how much the lawn mower tires cost. Told them he has the wrong store, we don’t sell them and then proceeded to hear him bitch me out about how I don’t want to do my job and help him.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia "confirms" DLSS 5 relies on 2D frame data as testing reveals hallucinations⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah you’re right. I was using DLSS as a catch all term forgetting fsr is the AMD version

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia "confirms" DLSS 5 relies on 2D frame data as testing reveals hallucinations⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Instead of doing this bullshit, can we just have regular DLSS be actually good? I can’t stand turning it on for my handheld because it’s a blurry, smeary mess as is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Coalition of 30 Major Publishers (including Penguin Random House, Elsevier, and HarperCollins) Sue Anna's Archive Over 'Staggering' Copyright Infringement, Seek Injunction⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are plenty of mirrors, they aren’t going anywhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indonesia will quit Trump's Board of Peace if it does not benefit Palestinians, Prabowo says⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So you paid billions to be on this board thinking it would actually promote peace?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I was told it would be a cultural experience⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Clean as fuck bathrooms, pretty decent bbq, affordable snacks, jerky for days, cheapest ice you will find, they pay their employees a fair wage…

  We are dumb, but not because of this.

  The Vampire Survivor Turbo whatchacallit was fun.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NextFest Thoughts⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If I’m not mistaken, WildBlue is from one of the original devs of Star Fox

  Hmmm, how much you want to bet the tobacco companies slipped a little money under their door mat

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨South of Midnight won Best Character Animation at the 53rd Annie Awards⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Breezy puzzler with some minor platforming elements worth it for the quick play through.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Next Fest - February 2026 is live with tons of demos⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Replaced is a good but short taste of the game, I played the demo and aim keeping it on my wishlist

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Former Diablo devs release demo for their Diablo 2-style action-RPG Darkhaven, but warn of "rough edges"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  About as many as ex Disco Elysium devs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The U.S. spent $30 billion to ditch textbooks for laptops and tablets: The result is the first generation less cognitively capable than their parents⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not OP, but when I hear this argument, a lot of schools wouldn’t let you go to your locker between all classes. That, or your classes were so far apart, you didn’t have time to go even get to your locker between them. There were some days I could only get to my locker once.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I say kill 'em all.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I tried a natural mosquito repellent with this in it and was shocked at how effective it was. I’m a mosquito magnet and it worked just as well as the ones with deet.

  I have, literally tastes like chicken, great with garlic butter

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What television series in your opinion had very good writing and character depth?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t believe Ted Lasso hasn’t been mentioned

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨noo not the cashier⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some people like to track receipts for bookkeeping or needing a return. Knowing you actually got a receipt vs. the cashier assuming you don’t want it and throwing it away.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Middle-class Americans are selling their plasma to make ends meet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a place near me paying $800 for new donaters. I’m 100% going to go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hrmmm⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Talking “proper” calibers is the equivalent of what Linux distro is best. It comes down to how accurate and quickly can you shoot under pressure. By most standards a .22 is too light a round to stop someone, unless you can precisely hit the head and potentially multiple times. A 9mm is kind of gold standard starting point for self defence. Like someone mentioned, if you aren’t a great shot, or feel like under pressure you wouldn’t be accurate, grab a shotgun. Just racking one can stop some people from attacking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hrmmm⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I use passive but my wife uses active ones from Walker. Their passive isn’t quite as good, but plenty for range use in case the batteries die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Important Announcement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My God, we can’t even have a celeb speak out against the atrocities in Gaza without some dick heads saying “that’s not good enough so it’s worthless”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did you have one?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I wasn’t a drug dealer!

  My mom said those were the only people who used them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that radishes are fucking amazing. They improve heart health and are full of Sulforaphene, a powerful anti-cancer substance. They contain almost no calories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like raw radishes, but I will devour pickled ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's with companies naming things "MyNoun"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What pisses me off the most about this is when I search for your app. It doesn’t start with your actual company name, I have to check alphabetical, see it’s not there. Go to install your app only to find I already had it, it’s just listed as MyInsertnamehere. Infuriating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently had to move with my physical book collection and swore I wouldn’t do it again. I converted it all to ebook now. I’m down to about a dozen physical books, not counting comics and TPBs.
