Fascinating
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
I mean you're not wrong, but assuming everyone is like you is a critical thinking problem, not an American problem. I just think it's particularly noticeable in Americans because there are a lot of them on the platform and the dumb ones are loud. Doesn't really seem like a problem worth geofencing an entire nation; just block the idiots.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
I get it, the US fucking sucks. But I didn't choose to be from here and I'm doing my best with what I've got. The fediverse has been one of the only somewhat sane spaces I can get away from the nonstop propaganda machine.
Block the American communities all you want, but many of us are here to escape the bullshit, not spread it. Sorry our discussion of our politics in communities dedicated to our politics bothers you I guess? You don't really seem to me to understand the point of the fediverse

- Music production software, esp. Ableton.
For what it's worth, REAPER works great on Linux. Ik it doesn't fill quite the same niche as Ableton but it is very capable, especially paired with yabridge for using VSTs via WINE.

- Comment on My apartment building gives me free water but I pay for electricity. What if I run the faucet nonstop and rig up a hydro turbine in my bathtub to generate my power from it? 2 weeks ago:
Second, as you can probably guess by looking at the above picture, pumping the water up 40 meters with water pressure and then back down doesn't accomplish anything—you can just hook the faucet up to your device, and let the water pressure drive the generator directly.

- Comment on Brave overhauls adblock engine, cutting its memory consumption by 75% 2 weeks ago:
Tbh even apart from the scams, Brave is such a crappy UX compared to Firefox/LibreWolf/IronFox that I wouldn't use it regardless. Idk why people hype this garbage
- Comment on Brave overhauls adblock engine, cutting its memory consumption by 75% 2 weeks ago:
I'm not sure how it compares to Brave but I did some benchmarks and found uBO to use significantly less RAM than alternatives like AdGuard. Nevermind that it's more trustworthy by far than basically all the alternatives...

The difference is that the AI summaries blatantly make shit up and actively contribute to the spread of misinformation

Mainly a compatibility thing afaik. For web stuff it's actually pretty great but people don't like not being able to download it in a format that works with image viewers and editing apps

- Comment on YSK tricks for one of the cheapest meals: beans and rice 2 months ago:
If you prefer white rice to brown but actually want some nutrients I highly recommend trying out basmati rice - it's relatively easy and inexpensive to get in bulk and I almost never eat any other type of rice anymore
- Comment on YSK tricks for one of the cheapest meals: beans and rice 2 months ago:
If you can get a hold of some chipotle chili pepper, adding a little bit to the beans is a great way to get some smokiness and depth of flavor too. It's really strong so one container lasts basically forever
