Getting old in this country sucks, you get to watch people, year after year, voting against their own and the countries best interest and instead for a group of rich assholes that promise the world every time and never deliver on anything but tax cuts and exploding the defecit which they suddenly don’t care about anymore, except next time a Democrat wins. It’s a fucking joke and I don’t know how anyone else doesn’t see it or how to stop it. Literal clown country.
- Comment on We have heard time and time again Hollywood and the Media are liberal assests. I disagree with that statement. But has it always been so called liberal? When did it start? 2 days ago:
Since caring about other people became a liberal idea, not been able to pinpoint exactly when that started but wow.
- Comment on Is there a software method to "rotate" music around my head? 4 days ago:
You can look for something called headphone crossfeed, there are DSP plugins for a number of music players for this, you can use these plugins to simulate the stereo field of speakers using headphones by having some of the signal from each channel bleed into the other, since of course when you are listening to speakers, that’s what’s happening unless you have your speakers very close to your head.
- Comment on Meet the AI rapper funded by a far-right party— Advance UK has hired the mystery ‘collective’ behind Danny Bones, a white-nationalist musician and activist – who isn’t real 4 days ago:
What kind of sad, pathetic, angry people make things like this? I really do pity them. No one is out to get you losers.

The problem with gambling is that you have to put some trust into whatever you’re gambling on, and that’s already bad because there’s no reason you should be trusting them to begin with since whoever is taking your money obviously doesn’t want to give it back. There is no way to tell that what you are gambling on hasn’t been fixed in some way unless you are on the inside in which case it is usually illegal.

If there’s one thing the internet is never wrong about it’s women, I’m sure the collective dating, sex and relationship knowledge of the hivemind that was fed into these things is ace lmao.

Yessssss, level/area design is a hallmark of Castlevania, would have been a shame.

They have been fighting over this land for thousands of years…. it’s of religious importance to several major religions so there will most likely continue to be fighting until they just decide to wall it off and decide no one can have it lol.
- Comment on Society is starting to appropriately accommodate neurodivergence, yet stupid/idiot/crazy/lazy etc. stay in the vocabulary. 2 weeks ago:
I think in most cases people are using stupid to describe the action or thing a person is doing and not the person themselves, people are doing stupid stuff all the time, it’s both bad and good of course, because often times the stupid things can be delightful as well. I guess it’s just a part of being human but it’s so very frustrating that we rely on some of those people to vote when they have chose to not take life seriously or think about the consequences for other people.

I get what you’re saying, but it’s quite difficult when people are constantly doing so many stupid, stupid things.

Yeah, I suppose we shouldn’t be too shocked though, Kevin Rose has been around SV long enough, I’m sure he could muster up a bit more, the site doesn’t even seem to have a vision really. I suspect it will just be datamined or used as some experiment/testing ground.

I was kinda excited about it, having used it for a while before moving on to reddit like a lot of others, but after getting my invite and trying it out for a while it just seemed like a lot of auto posted tech articles and not much discussion. I realize the thing that changed most was perhaps my relationship and views on technology, I’m not excited about where any of it is going to be honest, where as when the first digg came around I was very optimistic that the web was going to turn the world into a utopia lmao.

I bought this game on layaway at the local small department store and rode my bike a few miles every week from my house to the store to make the payments for it. That story makes me feel 100 years old.

- Comment on The RAM shortage is coming for everything you care about 3 weeks ago:
Oh yeah my games backlog is huge, I haven’t actually played any in a few years due to depression, but all my old synths and samplers use memory that has been deprecated for ages anyways. I hope people use this time to play through their backlogs like you and maybe these companies will put a little more effort into not fucking people over. I’m a dreamer, I know.
