What? I think you missed what he is saying like the reply to him. He was talking about her glasses not her looks. If he doubled down it would have just been him explaining what he meant and that would be that.
- Comment on Did you know traffic cones are free to take? I have 78264 traffic cones at home. 1 week ago:
Real. These cones get stolen all the time. I’m curious how much of it is cyclical. Someone steals some cones, so the victim steals cones from someone else to replenish their supply, etc.

This is perfect for me since I was banned from the NextDoor app for letting my community know the creature was hunting. I can host this for myself and others, and the nonbelievers can walk amongst it.

They’re showing the thinking the model did, the actual response is the sentence at the end.
- Comment on Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras? 4 weeks ago:
WiFi connected cameras were a mistake. Although, if people are going to use these mass surveillance devices, using it to find dogs is great. It needs cat detection too.

I don’t even like beans, but if I did this sounds like a way better texture than just beans by themselves. I don’t understand why people who enjoy them act like putting it on toast is weird.

No problem. If you try any of these, keep me in mind and let me know what you think.
- Comment on Ubisoft Fires Team Lead For Criticising Stupid Return-To-Office Mandate 1 month ago:
Bloodthief is great, fast paced with an extremely high skill ceiling. Unlockables give you something to strive for and the level based structure makes it easy to quickly pick up and put down. Some other games I see people recommended here that I love are Signalis, Pseudoregalia, and Sayonara Wild Hearts.
Signalis is the best modern take on the old Resident Evil formula I’ve ever played, hands down. Pseudoregalia is a blast to play, the movement and tech in that game are unrivaled. I thought about comparing it to some Mario games, but that wouldn’t do it justice. Sayonara Wild Hearts is short but beautiful, there is nothing out there like it and it probably has some deeper meaning to read into.
- Comment on TRIMUI Brick Hammer, a weirdly named but beautiful handheld 1 month ago:
Oh yeah, that is exactly what I want out of a handheld! And thank you so much for the link, I didn’t realize the firmware these things ship with is so out of date. If I can get the battery percentage working thanks to this, you’re a real life saver.
- Comment on TRIMUI Brick Hammer, a weirdly named but beautiful handheld 1 month ago:
Looks nice. I am not a huge fan of the form factor though, I prefer the GBA style layout. I have a RetroSnap Play I got as a gift, I wonder how it compares. By biggest issue is it can never tell me the battery percentage, and it drains quickly when I close it with a game running. This combo sucks and makes me constantly nervous about keeping it charged so it won’t shut off in the middle of an important game.
- Comment on Finally installed my own Firewall 1 month ago:
Even the wrong non-isp routers are ridiculous compared to OpenWrt capable ones. You’re telling me I’m paying a huge premium to get a cutting edge Nighthawk, and then they shove a subscription service in my face to use any of these features? Let alone the security implications of having all your traffic routed through proprietary software. No thank you.

Tony Hawk and Final Fantasy Tactics! Absolutely terrible at both.

I finally got around to it, the ps1 is an absolute beast. There was some rusting on the shielding but the PCB was no worse for wear. Didn’t even need to replace the laser.

- Comment on Follow this advice for a happier 2026 1 month ago:
I struggle with this every day. I have friends that are far from being the sharpest tool in the shed, but still friends. However they’re so emotionally unintelligent that they’re willing to tear apart any friendship they have over a single difference of opinion… Or by arguing against literal, undeniable facts. These relationships are exhausting to maintain.
- Comment on Meta has discontinued its metaverse for work, too 1 month ago:
Yeah it makes the first experience with a Meta headset extremely awkward. You boot it up they and they really want you to go into these worlds. Okay, so I did. Immediately I’m bombarded by the sound of 20 unsupervised children raiding a virtual McDonald’s. Okay, maybe I should find an 18+ world and try that. This was also a mistake.

How was your manager not happy with this? You not only talked them into a purchase but a purchase into an ecosystem that would likely generate future revenue for the company. There is nothing but positives here?

I know it’s hard, but you’ll get through this. One day at a time, step by step, things will get easier. Some days it might not feel like you’re making any progress; Some days you’ll feel like you’re moving backwards. But time heals all wounds. You’ve got this, eventually you won’t even remember their comment existed. Stay. Strong. Keep fighting.

Off topic, but this is why I love Lemmy; Look at this comment section. Many people here have a logical stance, either for or against the genAI use. Both sides are making good points. Reading through the article alongside the comments, my opinion was really teetering. It’s nice to be able to come in with an open mind and be challenged like this.
- Comment on Sometimes devs intentionally punish players for struggling with the game 2 months ago:
I believe they could have done this between the easy and normal difficulties because there’s not much of a difference between the two other than health regen and numbers for you and the enemies. But two reasons I see that they didn’t.
Madhouse difficulty changes so much it really wouldn’t be possible for you to swap difficulties mid playthrough, so maybe they just ignored it for the other ones. Or, the reason I think is most likely, RE7 has adaptive difficulty. So even if you’re on normal and struggling, things will get nerfed or you will get buffed after dying a few times.
If you had the preorder bonus(?) it unlocks Madhouse from the start which I guess could be a trap if you’re not ready for it and pick it.
