Not really.

No, I think it would be great if it federated. More people would come into contact with the idea of federation. I doubt most people using truth social are aware it’s Mastodon. I certainly didn’t know.

Welcome to my blocklist.
So tired of arguing with people like you.
- Comment on A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over? 2 weeks ago:
Wrong on both fronts.
- Comment on A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over? 2 weeks ago:
I couldn’t disagree more.
You’re referring to the analysts, executives, and marketers instead of most nerds.

I bought my own house and the price of owning a house is nothing compared to the price of renting.
Anyone who tries to argue otherwise is a moron who genuinely does not know what they’re talking about.

a large number of people who want the money but aren’t qualified do what we’re looking for.
Sounds like these businesses should be training their employees instead of expecting the employees to train themselves.
College is a great scam because it puts the onus of training onto the worker, not the business. And like good useful idiots, the average person feels pride in being taken advantage of in this way.

I genuinely believe my republican neighbors and I can unite on forming a lynch mob for the ruling class.
This is fucking bullshit and we only have too little because they have too much.

It shouldn’t have had all those users to begin with.

Nah, I’m good.
If you have a problem with what I’m doing, you can always ignore me.
I personally don’t have any issue with what I’m doing so I see no reason to change.
It doesn’t bother me if it bothers you.

You can get ignored, too.
I’m tired of people with no standards.

You mean I scrolled through a thread and replied to comments I saw?
Yeah, ignored.

But DUDE, it’s for the PC what Final Fantasy 7 was for the PS1!
You HAVE to buy it RIGHT NOW!

All I can say is, if your taste in video games is anything like your taste in music, then I’m right to stay far away from anything you recommend.

You have no perspective on what makes good art.
You are a consumerist at heart.

Trails in the Sky is, without question, the most expansive and intricate saga in JRPG history.
You have Derek Smart levels of ignorance and hubris.

Ok well, then that’s definitely not like Final Fantasy 7.
Final Fantasy games are in their own contained universe.
Clearly the potboilers on your team don’t know what they’re talking about and are just saying bullshit to drum up hype so they can make money.

It’s not like FF7 and you should get your heads out of your collective asses.

I feel like they were paid by the creators to write this.

Assassin’s Creed died after 2 when they fired the creator.

That’s why just about every technology forum ends up being a consumer board.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Actually, yes. Lifting the weight of a Toyota Camry 2 stories seems reasonable for a day’s worth of energy storage for a house.
I’m not sure how expensive the lift and generator will be, but the weight itself can be anything that’s sufficiently heavy.
You say chemical energy is way easier to store, but is it really easier and cheaper to store the energy needed for a home in a chemical battery?

“After backlash,” of course.
You heard it here first, folks. Businesses will try to fuck you over if they can get away with it.
It has nothing to do about keeping the lights on.

Eh, I don’t think the series would be as bad if it didn’t have his coke-addled ass dictating which direction it should go.

I agree. Modern developers use technology to cover up for creative bankruptcy.

I’m noticing music is having the same drawbacks as graphics in video games.
People keep “adding more” just because they can, not because it’s necessary or improves the final product.
Anime also has this issue with most modern animes having music playing 90% of the time because they can afford it. It reduces the integrity of the art down to that of a slapstick comedy.
