No luck if you have an S25 or below
- Comment on The FCC decided that all foreign-made consumer-grade Internet routers are prohibited from receiving FCC authorization and are therefore prohibited from being imported for use or sale in the US. 2 weeks ago:
Good luck Americans!
- Comment on Microsoft blocks registry trick that unlocked performance-boosting native NVMe driver on Windows 11 — workarounds still exist to enable support, however 2 weeks ago:
My job is the same way. Management expects daily utility of copilot because we pay for premium and it is part of our performance metrics. They added “onboarding artificial intelligence” as part of every job description.
- Comment on Google gives Android users a way to install unverified apps if they prove they really, really want to 2 weeks ago:
You purchased something. Then the company you purchased from announces they’re taking away features from you after the fact. Then they announce that they’ll give it back partially if you waste your time and do all sorts of steps.
You see this as a win? With attitudes like this, no wonder companies feel they can get away with anything.

Found the Google employee.
- Comment on Windows 11's free video editor Clipchamp now requires OneDrive 2 weeks ago:
Kdenlive is wild. It’s got almost all the features Adobe premiere has.
- Comment on Meta will shut down VR Horizon Worlds access in June 2 weeks ago:
It’s Mark Zuckerberg’s unlicensed digital daycares.
I’ve only ever encountered children between ages of 6 and 15 there.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 3 weeks ago:
Aaaaand just uninstalled lutris. There are many other ways to install windows games and applications that aren’t ensloppified.
- Comment on The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself 3 weeks ago:
I was around level 24 and on helldive. I’ve uninstalled the game and won’t reinstall so not 100% sure.
- Comment on Viral anti-masturbation app exposed sensitive user data 3 weeks ago:
Same but then I found out that most people I know pay close to $500/year in subscriptions alone. Some don’t even remember all the subscriptions they have! A guy at my work was saying that money was really tight and he saved a ton just by cancelling his Adobe and Capcut subscriptions. That’s not on top of at least 3-4 streaming platforms.
- Comment on Viral anti-masturbation app exposed sensitive user data 3 weeks ago:
Can you believe the developers of that app are paying real money for ads for it? I get Quittr ads online and Facebook all the time. Someone is paying money to try and convince me to not to wank. I can’t imagine a bigger waste of money.
- Comment on "US Person": is a red flag for financial institutions in Europe 4 weeks ago:
Renounce your citizenship.
- Comment on Will Be Done - modern offline-first self-hosted TickTick/Todoist alternative 4 weeks ago:
People like you are miserable. Someone puts time and effort into making their own software, share it for free with other people, give them a very easy way to set it up themselves, and then you come in and complain? Loser behaviour.
- Comment on The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself 4 weeks ago:
Exact opposite experience as you. I put in a good 25 hours before I dropped it from all the toxicity. If you accidentally hit someone or your laser drone friendly fired they grenade you, harass you on voice chat, and purposefully don’t revive. Always get kicked at the end of the match. I used to play CS:GO back when it wasnt free and I eventually left for the same reason. I feel just any online game where you have the ability to kill your own team devolves to this.
- Comment on The Helldivers 2 Community needs to get a fucking grip on itself 4 weeks ago:
It’s why I stopped playing all multiplayer games tbh. People are fucking feral.
- Comment on Mushroom growing scale down minimal volume 4 weeks ago:
It’s all part of learning 😎
- Comment on Mushroom growing scale down minimal volume 5 weeks ago:
I’ve grown oyster mushrooms from the grocery store on used coffee grounds and I mixed things with my hands in open air. Take the cakes out of the jar. Put them in your fruiting chamber (or plastic bag draped over it). The mycelium is a little plant animal and it breathes oxygen. You’ve stuffed it in an airless room with a tiny little hole. The whole body needs to be able to breathe. Not just the elbow.
- Comment on Mushroom growing scale down minimal volume 5 weeks ago:
The long fruiting bodies that just abort are because it’s starving for oxygen. Remove them from the container and put them in a box that’s kept humid (like a plastic container). Look up “shotgun fruiting chamber”. Or you can crumble your entire cake into a bin with some coco coir (contamination resistant) and the mycelium will spread and quickly start forming hyphal nodes and then fruit properly.
You got this!
- Comment on Is the Memory Shortage Intentional? 5 weeks ago:
The goal is to desensitize the general population into accepting thin clients instead of actual computers so that they can rent their OS as a cloud subscription.
This gives companies more control over content you consume plus your behaviours. It also gives governments more granular control over their citizens which is in vogue considering democracy is out and barbarism and force are back in.
- Comment on Using huntarr? Perhaps you shouldn't. 5 weeks ago:
They banned the user that did the robust cybersecurity audit. They banned everyone who pointed it out or linked to the post or mentioned it. They took the subreddit private. The clown dev has a donate feature and claims that it will be used to put his daughter through school. Just scum all around.
- Comment on Judge scolds Mark Zuckerberg's team for wearing Meta glasses to social media trial 1 month ago:
It’s because they know that they ARE above the law. They’ve gotten away with things that would spell life in prison for you or I. They have the head of the America regime cozied up to. They were all at several dinner parties on Little St. James Island.
- Comment on Trying to evaluate AI model generation 1 month ago:
I’m not the person you were talking about but why don’t you take your own advice in your own advice and
Stop pushing your opinion at all cost and annoy anybody that you could have won over on the way
AI is not a good or effective solution for replacing art. Talentless hacks think it’s a game changer. I know you desperately want to replace artists with slop machines that churn out garbage, but that’s simply just your opinion that you’re trying to push. Clearly it’s not receptive. Instead of mindlessly doubling down, go take that mental energy and learn how to model.
- Comment on I'm fed up with Copilot, and I'm not sure it can be fixed 1 month ago:
I used to work as a software trainer at a big corporation. More than half don’t understand file structures or keyboard hotkeys or can even distinguish a web browser from their file explorer.
- Comment on The Department of Homeland Security Is Demanding That Google Turn Over Information About Random Critics 1 month ago:
They criminally charged a man and he lost his job for throwing a club sandwich at ICE. They think they are being attacked seriously by anything. Your solution to obey and cower in fear and let fascists take over helps them out.
- Comment on 'No One Should Have a Copyright on Vance Being Booed': Video From Olympics Blocked on X 1 month ago:
No I’m sorry this is strictly on NBC and American fragility. Streams of the Olympics in all other countries didn’t mess with audio. I heard Israel being booed as well as America.
- Comment on 'No One Should Have a Copyright on Vance Being Booed': Video From Olympics Blocked on X 1 month ago:
In Canada we don’t censor that sort of stuff so watching the CBC stream was funny. All applause then the couch pest showed up and the entire stadium mood changed. Americans truly don’t realize they are jokes outside of their country.
- Comment on AI boom could falter without wider adoption, Microsoft chief Satya Nadella warns 2 months ago:
I remember living in an era where the market decided what was successful and what wasn’t. Good times?
- Comment on Meta has discontinued its metaverse for work, too 2 months ago:
Fun aside but I went into one of these heavily moderated adult communities on Meta and I was using a headset that was enterprise controlled so it had no personal meta account attached which meant I didn’t have an avatar.
When I showed up I appeared as a featureless grey avatar. I made a lot of friends until the moderator with a heavy southern US accent called me a hacker (because I was grey and featureless) and started genuinely freaking out and yelling.
A whole crowd gathered around me and some people were saying that I was a government agent (lol) and another suggested I was Russian. Anyways, they banned me for 7 days which sucked.
I had a VR witch trial because I was GREY.
- Comment on YSK a US passport card costs $30 and is definitive proof of citizenship. It fits in your wallet like a credit card. 2 months ago:
Fucking stewed.
- Comment on Meta has discontinued its metaverse for work, too 2 months ago:
The overwhelming majority of vr world users are children ages 7-14. There are almost no adults. The adults that are there are trying to interact with kids in an environment where there is zero supervision.
