- Comment on Three Lebanese journalists killed in Israeli strike 3 weeks ago:
This one is certainly the last straw, right? This is when Israel starts facing consequences for their war crimes, right? Right?!
Oh, wrong? Put it on the pile of war crimes over there then, right next to the pile of money from Uncle Sam they got to perpetrate even more crimes…
- Comment on Mozilla launches privacy friendly AI addon called "Orbit" 1 month ago:
Amen to that. I’m not a busy CEO of four companies, I don’t need or want an assistant, digital or otherwise. I want to read through articles and watch videos, I can scroll/fast-forward through myself if I feel like it. And while we’re at it, I don’t really need or want personalized anything - just give me ALL the search results and I’ll sort through them myself. Luddite? Maybe, but I literally cannot think of a case where this would be useful or helpful to me…
- Comment on Are there any video games in the Warhammer universe that are actually good? 2 months ago:
I still play it, even though the console version was basically abandoned ages ago and we didn’t even get the offline mode and seasonal journey PC players got. It’s still really fun regardless and is recommend it to anyone who likes that style of game.

They were both surprisingly cheap too - just saw them in a home center I went to buy some other stuff and couldn’t resist :)

- Comment on Twitter/X CEO Linda Yaccarino Files Antitrust Suit Against Advertising Groups Over "Systemic Illegal Boycott" 3 months ago:
“Illegal boycott” what a fantastic concept! What’s next, Starbucks suing everyone who doesn’t buy at least one overpriced frappucino per day for “illegal boycott”? Am I allowed to not buy McDonald’s burgers because I don’t like them, or is that an “illegal boycott” too? The possibilities are endless!
- Comment on Dog-like robot jams home networks and disables devices during police raids — DHS develops NEO robot for walking denial of service attacks 3 months ago:
Right, can’t have records of illegal raids, theft or murder uploaded somewhere before they can destroy/confiscate them…
- Comment on Record labels sue Verizon for not disconnecting pirates’ Internet service 3 months ago:
Next step: sue the power companies for providing electricity to the bad, nasty pirates, their landlords for allowing the egregious acts of piracy on their property, and their mothers for not raising them right… /facepalm
- Comment on Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder, Europol warns 4 months ago:
Warning: non-transparent walls, window blinds and door locks prevent lawful interception and surveillance - how are the authorities supposed to know you’re not doing something naughty in there?

Same! It was actually a pretty big surprise that Mint worked flawlessly out of the box on my crappy pre-built PC. Everything’s working great including the printer! I’m seriously impressed.
- Comment on ‘Nowhere is safe’: Fear and mourning inside the West Bank villages where Israeli settlers went on the rampage 6 months ago:
They are “settlers” in the same way a lerson robbing a bank with a gun is a “hunter-gatherer”…
- Comment on First draft of a label for one of my ciders 8 months ago:
Do you have pictures of those too? I’d love to see them!
- Comment on First draft of a label for one of my ciders 8 months ago:
It’s still awesome, stolen or not :) I do love the idea of using movie poster - style graphics as wine or cider labels, I think it’s a great match.
- Comment on First draft of a label for one of my ciders 8 months ago:
Love it! Highly likely I’d buy this if I saw it on a shelf just because of the label!
- Comment on Skyrocketing bluesky engagement since opening to the public 9 months ago:
Same - I was mildly curious to be honest, but not nearly enough to give them my phone number.
- Comment on Cable Firms to FTC: We Shouldn’t Have to Let Users Cancel Service With a Click 9 months ago:
Or, it should be exactly as difficult/complicated to cancel as to sign in. Want a 15-step cancellation process involving phones, faxes and a blood offering? Gotta require all that to sign up too!

Another revolution in battery tech? Man, is it Friday already? Look how time flies…
- Comment on Smokey's Simple Guide To Search Engine Alternatives 1 year ago:
What I did was first set all the options up and save them, and then go to “Cookies” in the search engine settings and copy the “Search URL of the currently saved preferences”. Then, open Firefox settings -> Search -> Manage alternative search engines -> Add search engine and paste the thing into the “Search string URL” field, type in the name and press save. After that I just set it as default, and it works.
Hope this helps!
- Comment on Smokey's Simple Guide To Search Engine Alternatives 1 year ago:
Great list! Is there a way to easily add SearXNG as a default search engine in Firefox for Android? That’s the only thing I’d like to make it even more convenient

- Comment on "Slack’s biggest redesign ever tries to tame the chaos of your workday" 1 year ago:
Same - right now I have a list of DMs that shows full names and is immediately accessible - to me that’s significantly easier to look through than a mockup of a phone interface…
I’m using Slack on desktop and for work - not a fun of makig it look like I’m texting my buddies from my phone.
