I actually want them to do this.
- It would be very obvious that they are disappearing people that pose no threat.
- it would help identify the people that get disappeared.
- It would show the waste of money this really is to hardline supporters.
- It would show Americans who are willfully ignorant what the fuck is going on, in living color.

- Comment on Elden Ring on Switch 2 Is a Disaster in Handheld Mode - IGN 4 days ago:
Yes, it’s the game devs fault for not optimizing a game that was released in 2022.
It definitely could not be Nintendo’s fault for releasing a console in 2025 that can’t play games from 2022.
- Comment on Whisper of the House takes the cosy isometric decorating of Unpacking and unleashes it upon an entire town like an ultra-relaxing endless mode 4 days ago:
Unpacking is a great game because of the storytelling. This seems promising but unless it has a similar ability to weave a narrative then it won’t be to fun to play.

I sure hope nobody recommends me to use a free and open source operating system that never has issues like this over this proprietary OS that I’m used too and have been paying licensing fees for since I started using computers.

Jellyfin actually works for ebooks too. It does all the things you specified and more.

One thing about old games (pre n64), is that you don’t have to worry about controlling the camera. Younger kids like 5 or so have a hard time enough time timing button presses so making them also have to figure out how to control the camera/is very frustrating for them. Isometric, top down, and point and clicks work best for younger kids.
I also think the super Nintendo controller is the best for children and people with small hands. 8bitdo makes a good modern one with more buttons and triggers so you can play modern games.
- Comment on AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over 1 week ago:
I’ve actually worked professionally in the field for a couple of years since it was interesting to me originally. I’ve built RAG architecture backends for slef hosted FOSS LLMs, i’ve fine tuned LLMs with new data, And I’ve done even took the opposite approach where I embraced the hallucinations as I thought it could be used for more creative tasks. (I think this area still warrants research)
I’ll admit that the term AI is extremly vauge. It’s like saying you study medicine, it’s a big field. But I keep coming to the conclusion that LLMs and predictive generative models in general simply do not work for the use cases that it’s being marketed to consumers, CEOs, and Governments alike.
This " AI race" happened because Deepseek was able to create a model that was more ore less equivalent to OpenAI and Anthropic models. It should have been seen as a race between capitalism and open source since deep seek is one of the more open models at that performance level. But it became this weird nationalist talking point on both countries instead.
There are a lot of things the US is actually in a race with China in. Many of which are things that would have immediate impact. Like renewable energy, international respect, healthcare advances, military sufficiency, human rights, food supplies, and afordible housing, just to name a few.
The promise of AI is that it can somehow help in the above categories eventually, and that’s cool. But we don’t need AI to make improvements to them right now.
I think AI is a giant distraction, while the the talk of nationalistic races is just being used for investor buy in.

The race to have the magic box that tells you lies that you want to hear while also consuming incredible amounts of resources…why is this a race again?

Naw, the flush gets it all down the drain. It’s not a urinal, they have those too in larger bathrooms.

No, you can totally poop in these. The issue here is that the coffee house has old pipes.
- Comment on China's green energy boom could spell the end of the fossil fuel age 1 week ago:
It was just too bad you’re not allowed to poop in it.
- Comment on China's green energy boom could spell the end of the fossil fuel age 1 week ago:
Was in china recently. The place where I was staying (like almost all buildings in the region) had a water heater that was solar powered on the roof. One day there’s a leak from the roof, turns out the water heater had a busted pipe, these things happen.
Then I find out there is no bypass for the water heater, all water for the house passes through it, even cold. The only thing that can be done is to turn off the water for the house, no more showers or pooping unless I want to use a lot of filtered water until it can be fixed. Ok I guess I can deal with it until they can replace the pipe.
Turns out the solar heated water heater is made so shittily that the repair man says it’s too hard to replace the pipe and would need to install a new unit, none of the original unit can be reused, not even the solar panel since its an all in one unit.
For the rest of the stay I couldn’t shower or poop where I was living. But I did find one bathroom at a coffee house that was interesting.

- Comment on YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report 1 week ago:
You might have a point. It’s only one document that they decided not to mention DEI related words in dispite using it 7 times in the same document the previous year.
However, I’ve been on the fence about even buying Lego for my daughter. The fact is that they sell a product entirely made from plastic, it doesn’t matter that they use paper bags now to contain their plastic. This is the modern day equivalent of buying your children toys made with asbestos or lead. These products make our children and planet less healthy in ways we aren’t fully sure yet.
Maybe they aren’t evil. But they also seem to be far from innocent.
I think I’ll still stick to buying second hand if at all.

This sucks, my daughter just got into Lego. I guess it’s just another evil company I’ll be boycotting.
If my daughter wants more Lego, I’ll just buy it second hand
