- Comment on Trump wants neighbours to take in Palestinians to 'clean out' Gaza 3 days ago:
If the other countries doesn’t include America. He’s all for it. Very he’s hardcore NIMBY.
- Comment on After Musk gesture, activists project 'Heil' on Tesla plant 1 week ago:
Correct, he won’t kill trans people… he’ll just talk it up so other people do it for him and then take All the credit. That’s his MO.
He’s still a Nazi though.

“This looks pretty concerning," said meteorologist Daniel Swain.
Understatement of the year right there.
- Comment on HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content 3 weeks ago:
There are a few broadcast 8k channels in Japan and South Korea. There’s some YouTube 8k videos and 16k is being worked on. 8k is pretty awesome, though I really just want 8k screens for large PC monitors. I currently use a 4k 43” and 8k would be even better at that distance. Both Samsung and Sony have 8k screens for sale right now and they’re not really that crazy expensive for cutting edge. (75” Samsung 8k QLED for $3k)
- Comment on What are your Homelab goals for 2025? 3 weeks ago:
Finish my migration to my local Kubernetes cluster. Tired of running a mix of vms, docker, and bare metal. I got it setup and a few things, just have to power through.
I also need to bump the drive size in my NAS as I’m running low and want to leverage it more, not less. (Pods use PVs hosted on the NAS over NFS or iSCSI).
And get my offsite backups going again, I had to move this last year and it put a real damper on my goals for last year so there’s a lot of “got the stuff just have to make it work”.
- Comment on Germany hits 62.7% renewables in 2024 energy mix, with solar contributing 14% 3 weeks ago:
Same in the US… I don’t have any choice on where my power comes from. Though the government tries to go after them for price fixing/gouging, it’s always way late and a smaller penalty that nut should have been while they’re currently making money hand over fist.
- Comment on Lazy scientists announce there are probably several kinds of squirrels but they move too fast to be sure 4 weeks ago:
Gotta go fast!
- Comment on Wuhan lab samples hold no close relatives to virus behind COVID 1 month ago:
It’s too late. The Republicans already have their story, inconvenient facts don’t matter. The people who care about its real origins aren’t the ones making laws.
- Comment on 'Democrat propaganda': Marjorie Taylor Greene plans to team up with Musk to defund NPR 2 months ago:
Guess it’s a good thing that NPR barely gets any funding from the federal or state governments then. All this does is get people to donate more to PBS and NPR.
- Comment on D-Link refuses to patch yet another security flaw, suggests users just buy new routers — D-Link told users to replace NAS last week 2 months ago:
Definitely don’t this in the past (Linksys WRT54G!) but let’s be honest, the kind of people running 10yo Dlink routers aren’t going to flash new firmware, let alone OpenWRT or even know to look for it. It would have to come that way from the factory.
- Comment on Haha SO TRUE! 2 months ago:
The phrase “Haha So True!” (referred to as ‘HST’ henceforth to save space and out of respect for the readers’ precious time who would rather engage in intellectual conversations elsewhere than keep repeating “Haha So True!” over and over again
HST
- Comment on They're called leaves for a reason. 2 months ago:
Absolutely. There’s a lot in my neighborhood… And it’s annoying when there’s a perfectly good sidewalk right there.
- Comment on Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations 2 months ago:
The people being deported AND the people who weren’t.
- Comment on Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations 2 months ago:
Yeah, we definitely need less people in this country. I’m sure it’ll help fill all the job vacancies and increase productivity and GDP.
I will make sure to bring this up when any republicans complain that are so many vacancies because no one wants to work anymore.
- Comment on Palo Alto Networks confirms mystery zero day now exploited 2 months ago:
with the US-based security vendor on November 11 urging customers to pull their management interfaces off the public internet or restrict them to known IP addresses.
Why would you EVER put management interfaces on the public internet? What terrible decisions led them down that path? VPN is so quick and easy at a minimum.
- Comment on Trump picks vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy as health secretary 2 months ago:
Last time around he went with Scott Pruitt, the climate change denier and ally of the fossil fuel industry.

Oooh,ooh! Now do Israel!
- Comment on Ente Photos - Pricing update (getting cheaper) 2 months ago:
Anyone self host this? Especially in Kubernetes? Seems pretty interesting and it’s already containerized.
- Comment on 4 or more hours of daily screen time linked to more anxiety and depression in teens, data shows 2 months ago:
By “screen time” the article seems to assume the only thing they’re doing on their screens is social media. I had to check as if it was really just screens for more than 4hrs, that’s an interesting stat I hadn’t heard, but could make some sense. However, that’s not it. So doing things like content creation (drawing, writing, photography) reading or learning, aren’t counted in this study.
- Comment on Why Surgeons Are Wearing The Apple Vision Pro 2 months ago:
Ergonomically, I’m not sure that’s better. Sure they don’t have weight on them that the headset would add, but being able to freely move your head without holding it against a stationary headset would be quite an improvement.
- Comment on Passport-less clearance fully available at Changi Airport, average clearance time of 10 seconds: ICA 2 months ago:
Paperless doesn’t necessarily require biometric data… still, I’ll just skip Singapore.
- Comment on Passport-less clearance fully available at Changi Airport, average clearance time of 10 seconds: ICA 2 months ago:
At the moment it sounds optional, so that’s a plus.
Also:
The previous average clearance time for each traveller was 25 seconds, said ICA.
So, 15s saved per person. Which is handy, but 25 seconds fits squarely in the “blazing fast” category anyway.
Bet the people will spend more than 15s per person dealing with the ramifications of their biometric data getting leaked and used against them later though.

“Right off the bat” is a phrase used to mean: immediately, without requiring extra thought or consideration, upon first attempt or viewing, etc.
- Comment on North Korea blows up parts of inter-Korean roads in a symbolic display of anger 3 months ago:
This is one of those toddler things where everyone can look and say “you’re only hurting yourself here”. Like who cares? They’re unused roads/tracks. This does literally nothing. NK, this isn’t even a show of strength… like any country can get some tnt and blow up a section of unused roadway.
- Comment on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 sucks up to 180 Mb/s of internet bandwidth while in flight — equivalent to 81GB of data per hour 3 months ago:
Likely both of those could be much much smaller for 2024 because it’s just streaming the data so the updates and installation size are smaller since it’s all coming in real time while playing instead of having to be installed before playing.
- Comment on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 sucks up to 180 Mb/s of internet bandwidth while in flight — equivalent to 81GB of data per hour 3 months ago:
You joke about the install size, I’m more annoyed at the constant 1-2hr updates preventing me from playing when I have 20 free minutes.
- Comment on Read this if you own a Juicebox EV charger 3 months ago:
‘Eh, I’d have to argue that even open firmware devices are a mistake unless they’re really standardized and extremely popular, which aren’t things you can necessarily know when its early in its life cycle.
Open source things either get a cult following, or get that one lone dev that thanklessly keeps it going and then decides to give up and become a sheep farmer… or both.
