- Comment on Renters have 'easiest time in six years' to find a home, says Zoopla 2 days ago:
No clue where in England you’re from friend but I would GLADLY pay $1,800 USD. A 2br apartment, built 40 years ago is $2,400 and includes an obese upstairs neighbor that makes every ceiling joist creak on their 20th trip to the fridge.
Sad part is that there are new apartment complexes being built that are even more expensive with worse build quality… but they do that while community amenities thing so people fall for things like “free” propane at the grills, a 24x7 dog park, or decked out gym. All things you’re still “paying” for in your ridiculous rent price.
- Comment on Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐 3 days ago:
WH doesn’t deserve an employee this dedicated. I hope she went on to better things like security or setting fire to the bourgeoisie… any job that lets her throw down from time to time.

That chair redirect was amazing. You know after taking that beating she was in full time dilation.
- Comment on Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐 3 days ago:
Waffle House has raised their overall prices by 96% since 2020. Hash browns increased by 110% and coffee went from $1.80 to $3.15. At one point, they added a $0.50 cent surcharge per egg due to the shortages caused by the avian flu.
It’s easy and cheap to make breakfast at home with 50% less grease. Waffle House ain’t cheap anymore and that’s all it really had going.
- Comment on Internet Archive Faces Copyright Lawsuit Over 'Myspace Dragon Hoard' 3 days ago:
By that logic, AI engineers can just say they’re an archive and steal IP from artists to “lend” it to their LLM? I’m not saying the dude was in the right, I’m saying calling yourself an archive doesn’t automatically make you immune to IP challenges. When IA started “controlled digital lending” shortly after the pandemic, they started taking fire from creators.
An archive archives things. It’s not a library, it’s not a tor host, and CDL shouldn’t have happened… but everyone was on lockdown.

I mean, we live in a capitalist society that rewards that kind of behavior but more so, as a musician he has the right to defend his art from “theft”. IA responded appropriately. Realistically, a competent digital rights lawyer should have stopped him before it became news… but I don’t see this as being a sociopath.

Can’t blame him for trying. I’m glad the IA stood up to him or it could have been the beginning of the end for the archive.

Goya, the company that paid Trump to shill those shitty beans in the Oval Office. Our world has become a constant Onion headline.
- Comment on Checkers, not chess. 5 days ago:
That’s an ambitious perspective for a stick figure artist. I respect the effort.

Hey, man. I just got here. Chill.
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
I understand. My only wish is that you could imagine how much money you could save while eating healthy and facing the challenges of your week. Good luck friend.

…in yeast, we feast. Amen.
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
You make one batch of dough on a Sunday night, then leave it in the fridge. Every day you take a chunk of dough and make a bread something (pizza, pot pie, cinnamon sticks, etc) faster than it takes to get in your car and pick up Rotten Ronnie’s. The cool part is as the dough sits longer in the fridge, the flavor really matures.
So my Monday night looks like 2min to roll out the dough and spread the sauce, 3min on toppings (including knife prep), and 7 minutes to bake at 500F+
Tue Pot pie? Simple, add Costco chicken and rinsed leeks to flour, water, heavy cream, and spices (8min) on the stovetop, place in a bowl, take a dough ball from Sunday roll it out and place on top of the bowl and mixture. 350F for 20 mins of hands off time.
All of these meals are under 3$ per serving. I work 40-50 hours per week and feed and clean after three kids. Their favorite is honey butter bread by TheOutDoorBoys as a quick snack.
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
You better not be paying those prices if you’re poor. You could make 8 pizzas for that price. That’s just bad budgeting.
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
I worked at Laser Quest for years and there was a PJ’s in the parking lot. When we would order birthday pizzas, they would always bring us a staff pie, usually cheese. Super nice gesture but after a few months I couldn’t even look at their pies, for years after I quit, without mentally tasting that cup of garlic grease and pepperoncini. 🤢🤮
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
My guess is they don’t even pay a driver or liability. I assume they just contract to a dasher so if anything goes wrong, Papa just points his finger at Übermensch.
- Comment on Papa Johns is closing 300 locations 1 week ago:
I just checked, a standard large pepperoni for delivery is over $20 before tipping the driver. Gee, I wonder why no one is ordering?

You seriously underestimate my ability to invest 🤓
$20m in seed funds would be amazing.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
You can’t tell by the giant frames that never fit anyone’s face and the giant circular cameras with a recording indicator? Even if you disable the indicator, I would just assume they are always recording.
Same thing came up in the 90’s with pinhole cameras. Jackass used them and they all looked like narcs.
The number of cameras you’re on every day, being surveillance by government agencies/affiliates, should be this academic’s priority. Not the AmericanTurk doing food reviews.
Ok. Let’s say this app does find the glasses, then what? More Karen’s that don’t understand what “reasonable expectation of privacy” means?
- Comment on I'll take 4 and 8 2 weeks ago:
#5 to invest immediately and #4 to afford 2-3 and 6-7 over time, without noticing the draw on my account. With decent yeilds on investments, I’ll be getting lots of things for “free”. Swapping bodies with a celebrity is creepy, no thanks. Marriage? Never again.

No, we have a strict code phrase policy that’s been tested several times.

Ummmm… no. I play with my kids and if I’m not, I’m doom scrolling fedi right next to them on our gigantic couch. What world sid you invent? Weird.

You ever been on Roblox? I’m not going to shelter him from what’s out there. Together we’re going to learn how to outsmart and out play every kind of troll. My daughters are much stronger now after playing toxic COD Zombies lobbies a decade ago. I’m an old man with three wonderful kids who will never bully or belittle another animal, even the nasty animals online.

All I’m hearn’ is something something something I oughta gut you like a pig. 🐷 🤟
- Comment on Roblox, Reddit and Discord users compelled to use biometric ID system backed by Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel 3 weeks ago:
My kid wants to be verified on Roblox sooooooo bad so he can defend himself against trolls. It’s actually been a good lesson in ignoring those idiots like water off a ducks back.

Was this the one with the voice control headset? Never figured out how to make it work.
- Comment on How Seed Oils Became the Villain of Social Media—And What the Science Really Says [15:48] 1 month ago:
I think a part of the push is from the various oil producers. It happens with food all the time. “Beef it’s what’s for dinner”, “a glass of wine a day is healthy”, “egg cholesterol is good cholesterol”, “pork the other white meat”. All ways to get rid of oversupply and raise profits.
Those were obvious examples of advertising but ever since social media and influencers, I don’t trust these broad statements anymore.

That’s SO much cooler than mine 😆
- Comment on A tale of two social platforms 2 months ago:
After 18 years, Reddit went public and I was suddenly hit with temp ban after temp ban for stupid shit until they kicked me for saying the US shouldn’t be allowing the starvation of Palestinian children by one of our “allies”.
I guess, according to Reddit, you can f* children and be worthy of praise, but food and medical supplies is a bridge too far? Get fucked Spez. It’s one of the few times I wish the orange goblin had a senior moment and bans Reddit for r/obama.
A president lasts 4-10 years. I will always remember these racist pedo fucks and the bootlicking CEOs.
