- Comment on What launcher should I replace Nova with? 1 week ago:
I only really have a problem with ads that are for shite. Ads for things that are specifically ethically better and provide an alternative to the evil mainstreams feel more like necessary PSAs
- Comment on BASED? 2 weeks ago:
And queerfolk have more important objectives than to play the labour game
- Comment on Overwatch 2 Is Just 'Overwatch' Again And Five New Heroes Arrive Next Week 2 weeks ago:
Overwatch 2 isn’t ‘Overwatch again’ until its copies are disabled and replaced with Overwatch 3, which has the monetisation model of Overwatch 2 made free. 1 was the cost of the game, 2 would be premium skins I guess
- Comment on Australia said to grant US access to Australians’ biometric data 2 weeks ago:
Acronym for ‘Jesus fucking Christ’, referencing a book character. In this sense it conveys a sense of shock/disbelief.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Trick is to leave two spaces at the end of the line, then the next line renders as intended
- Comment on Google will pay $135 million to settle illegal data collection lawsuit 3 weeks ago:
But they won’t stop. It’s like if some people complained that I’ve been speeding consistently over the past 15 years and the state fines me (my monetary worth of £2,000÷ 30,000) £0.06 while I’m ripping through a residential area towards a school
- Comment on Women receive more hatred for defending themselves against violence than men do being pedophile rapists 3 weeks ago:
She wasn’t even abused though lol
- Comment on Ring Cameras Join Flock and Amazon to Now Create Direct Data Access for ICE 4 weeks ago:
Ring is owned by Amazon, so it makes sense. You can’t really trust any company fully, but Anker and Reolink are OK for now
- Comment on They don't keep stats on prostitutes the way they do with football quarterbacks so we'll never know who the GOAT prostitute is 5 weeks ago:
And then, if the scoring criteria can be subjective, that can lead to a similar issue with results. Kind of how those ice-skating competitions rely on 3 experts’ opinions rather than the mathematical accuracy of moves or timing accuracy of music synchronisation.
- Comment on Been pondering this all morning 5 weeks ago:
When I was on Imgur there was a guy that posted a photo of his porridge every day for years and it was very inconsistent lol. Some days they made slop, some days mortar
Forum communities are so wholesome though, one day a second bowl of porridge appeared and everyone celebrated OP getting an acquaintance
- Comment on Wokeness ended, check mate leftists 5 weeks ago:
Well yeah, cos they were taught a) it’s a sin to get hard, b) the only reason your dick is hard is to fuck something and cum, c) they dont want it to happen in public so they blame the cause of their arousal for their own fucked up suppressions
- Comment on How do I properly and safely clean smartphone? 5 weeks ago:
Depends, my phone is IP69K so I washed it with hand soap, warm water and a towel dry lol
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 month ago:
3 Ironwolf Pros for £1,200, before the AI bs ruins their prices too
- Comment on Important video of a pudú fighting a rhinoceros you should watch 1 month ago:
Nah don’t worry!! It’s really not a you problem, it’s the UK OSA - Imgur blocked API access from UK IPs, nothing a VPN doesn’t fix
- Comment on Important video of a pudú fighting a rhinoceros you should watch 1 month ago:
Ah fuck, it’s 99% Imgur embeds
- Comment on I replaced Windows with Linux and everything’s going great 1 month ago:
Bro emulated Windows XP. That’s cool, anything is possible on Linux
- Comment on MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff 1 month ago:
Constantly skating over the fact that half of EU invaded what’s now America
- Comment on Eggs don't just grow on trees! 1 month ago:
I can forgive the Americans for renaming them now. That looks so weird
- Comment on US | Renee Nicole Good said ‘I’m not mad at you’ before ICE agent shot her, video shows 1 month ago:
Ngl I said a similar thing to a school bully before they attacked me
- Comment on China's humanoid robot firms make up half of exhibitors at CES 2026 1 month ago:
Don’t Chinese firms make >55% of everything?
- Comment on How come Netflix removed the N from their shows, kind of make it seem like they borrow all the stuff? I usually use it for a segway into other shows/movies not made by them? 1 month ago:
Aside from knowing that it’s spelled segue, I have no idea, sorry
- Comment on Microsoft Office has been renamed to “Microsoft 365 Copilot app” 1 month ago:
Yeah that happened about six months ago, rolls off the tongue doesn’t it
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 month ago:
I wish I didn’t go all in on digital, but then the space not taken up by physical media (in my case, >1,000 games) is also valuable to me. I’ll have to settle for keeping copies of whatever isn’t DRM locked, and pirate whatever is.
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 month ago:
Can confirm.
Most games I run on Heroic are free giveaways from Epic. Those are, to the best of my knowledge, all Windows. Heroic handles the compatibility with Proton, similar to how Steam does it. With a fancypants workaround you can even install Sims 4 as a direct game exe
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 month ago:
I’m not. You can still buy valid 12 month Xbox Live Gold subscriptions for under £40, close to the £36 before Game Pass took over. Fuck the new price. The Gold codes translate to Game Pass Core. But if you want Ultimate, well don’t let me get between your lips and Microsoft’s expensive arsehole

Join the club
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I use Ironwolf on Android. Fennec is nice. There’s also Klar/Focus, but it is so stripped down it doesn’t have Firefox Sync.
- Comment on Teenage Jehovah's Witness can receive blood transfusion, judge rules 1 month ago:
She’s a child grown and conditioned entirely in the restrictive cult, knowing only what the Elders and her conditioned family taught her - the beliefs are hardly her own, let alone her medical choices. Poor kid is just one of thousands of victims of the Witnesses’ doctrines.
- Comment on Big Tech Ramps Up Propaganda Blitz As AI Data Centers Become Toxic With Voters 2 months ago:
Pretty sure the emissions and market starvation is what’s ‘toxic’. A more correct term would be ‘lousy’
- Comment on Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases 2 months ago:
As long as the ones I’m interested in don’t get scrubbed by an authority I’ll get to acquiring it later.
