- Comment on YSK that you can force Windows 10 to open your default browser instead of MS Edge with MSEdgeRedirect 3 days ago:
The big difference is that hacky shit in Linux almost always happens because of oversights, whereas Windows actively fights you on things you want to do. This means that a solution that worked for some forum poster 10 years ago has a pretty good chance of still working today (if it's even still necessary), whereas Microsoft would see that fix as a bug and try to "patch" it. You would never have the fuck around like this just to get your default browser to be, y'know, the default.
Not to mention trying to troubleshoot Windows always means having to browse through a half dozen forum posts of people having your exact problem, but the only replies are some IT script that takes 3 paragraphs to tell you to reinstall whatever program, with no follow up when that inevitably doesn't work.

Yeah, isn't aging straight up caused by degradation during replication, like oxidation or something? I feel like being immortal would necessarily imply we fixed that shit

I'm too lazy to look it up right now but there have definitely been cheaters in Rocket League. The fact that it isn't a shooter is actually made it easy to cheat in; when there's no precedent for what cheating even looks like, how do you spot it? I remember a few years ago there was a whole scandal where it turned out someone who was famous for making trickshots had some kind of bot that was able to calculate exactly how to hit the ball midair and send it into the goal.

I don't think the "choosing a server" thing has been a serious roadblock for years, if it ever was. Most people just pick The Big One anyway. If they knew enough to care about distributing users properly among instances, they probably wouldn't be intimidated by picking

While the the letters are adjacent, I don't think that was a typo. "Finna" is pretty common slang, just a variant of "gonna"

I haven't had ants, specifically, but I have eaten termites. Can I join anteater club?

That'd be... nice... but no. When it come to homophobia, people hate what they don't understand and then come up with reasons to justify it, not the other way around.

Or perhaps all lasagnas are ssndwiches

Flour, water, salt, yeast, all checks out to me

Depends on topping orientation. Top pizza needs to be upside down to be a sandwich/calzone; if it's right side up it's a lasagna
- Comment on Ice cream trucks still around? 1 month ago:
I've worked repetitive, hot, boring jobs before, but I don't know how the people working those trucks can keep their sanity with that music on repeat. I get sick enough of Christmas music in stores after hearing them like twice, and the blaring of an ice cream truck is 100x worse!
- Comment on Ice cream trucks still around? 1 month ago:
One just started coming through my neighborhood like 2 weeks ago, and there's a kid a few houses down who seems to always be ready to run out and stop the truck. Takes easily 10+ minutes for the music to fade out. Like, I hate to be a grumpy old man, but that music drives me fucking nuts! I'm on the verge of trying to beat the kid to the truck just so I can bribe the guy to drive away as fast as possible

not to mention the mouse would have to move the core in order to spring the trap so it might not even close properly

Probably also doesn't hurt that the US is generally far more reliant on driving to get anywhere. There's a higher tolerance for doing it dangerously since there's no alternative
