- Comment on [Steam] Which lesser known games have you bought or are planning to buy in this sale? 10 months ago:
Boltgun accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do. Great game. It gives me the same sort of power fantasy vibe that Space Hulk: Deathwing did but lets you actually move at the terrifying speed that a space marine should.

Fuck sake it took me nearly ten hours just to learn how to read in Tunic

Having money isn't everything. Not having money is.
- Comment on People who dont particularly care for or celebrate Christmas, Whats your favorite Christmas song? 10 months ago:
By far my favorite. I play this one every year and will continue to do so until my death.
- Comment on What DID Apple innovate? 11 months ago:
While you may be correct I think you're still missing the point. CLI is for super nerds. While you and I may know how to use it, the average person doesn't, and is unlikely to put in the effort to learn. That is the innovation that Apple made in bringing computing to the mainstream. It was precisely because people didn't have to learn how to navigate the CLI environment and instead got an easy point-and-click interface that computers caught on with the public at large, and that gained Apple an absolute ton of cash money and noteriety.
- Comment on If the kids didn't mutiny, would Picard have been killed when the turbolift fell? 11 months ago:
So that you can stand on the lift, and not get head trauma every time you want to travel to a lower deck I'd assume.

If you judge a fish by his ability to climb a tree, he will live his entire life thinking he is a failure.
- Comment on will the fediverse stop existing?? 11 months ago:
Insult, no elaboration. Classic. Nah I think he's pretty spot on. If you're going to say something about it then back up your argument.
- Comment on It's dangerous to go alone. Take this. 11 months ago:
Being generous, I'd say I could run maybe a half mile at full tilt before I collapse completely. +400% stamina would put me at two miles, and the shoes last "while stamina lasts." Pretty strong, but not Flash OP.
- Comment on Apple Makes It Harder for Police to Access Your Push Notifications 11 months ago:
Your phone has to be informed somehow, from the internet, that it has data to present as a notification. The fact that you got a notification at 3:32 and then again at 3:35 is trackable data, pretty much no matter what anyone does with it, encrypted or not. Doubly so if someone has MITM attacked your data stream. They may not know what the notification contains or even what app it was sent to, but the act of transmitting and then receiving this data packet over cell network or internet is a trackable event. And I don't really know what Apple could even do about that beyond attempting to build Internet 2 solely for the purposes of keeping the cops out of it, which is unlikely at best.

And the next 20 below that do not.
If you aren't willing to look past the first four results to find what you want, internet shopping may not be for you.

My partner recently bought me a stuffed cat that has giant balls. It's hilarious, long story. Anyway I've named him Bophades.

In fact there's a bigger version of this meme extending through the other direction of the scale as well

- Comment on Honda's commercials saying they are going to be carbon neutral by 2050. What? 11 months ago:
Therefore it is up to consumers to make sure that being environmentally conscious is profitable.
I was going to buy Hondas anyway because they are cheap and reliable but if Honda as a company really does become carbon neutral that's an added bonus that I'm thrilled about. Even if Hondas become moderately priced and reliable instead of cheap and reliable as a result, they'll still be on my radar.

The answer is really just that Q does what he fuckin wants and everyone else is left to suffer the consequences
- Comment on The UK tries, once again, to age-gate pornography 11 months ago:
Because, historically, prohibition of [x] has been a highly effective strategy with no downsides whatsoever.
- Comment on Boffins convert typing sounds into text with 95% accuracy 11 months ago:
Now every skiddie can do it.
And this is the real, serious problem. Most people are pretty unlikely to stop a state sponsored spy operation no matter how careful they are. It's barely worth worrying about unless you know for a fact you're being tapped and that you will be killed about it, and even if you do know this the state can pull some space age bullshit out of their asses that doesn't yet have a counter. Top secret military industrial research goes into maintaining that exact advantage every year, if they really want to get you, you will get got. But if Joey Dickbeater and his school friends can just point a mic at your window and then upload it to the Pass-o-Gram to decode it, you have a real problem. It's like when TikTok kids figured out they can steal Kias with usb keys - if every teenager in America knows how to steal your car, its lifetime is going to be measured in minutes. Same with passwords.
Sounds like it's time to buy a bunch of random cherry switches and randomize them across my keyboard.....

According to every source I can find X/Twitter has lost around 32 million users and counting since the rebrand.

Big fan of antignocchi myself. It's got that certain taste of total annihilation you can't get anywhere else.

It's a shame people think the "bill gates propaganda wing" is a real thing.
What's your opinion on PragerU, I wonder?

Got any other info on that? You've got my attention, but also my doubt.

Sure, that part made sense given the context. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.
- Comment on Free trial has expired 1 year ago:
Oh, so business as usual in my real life, then.
- Comment on Free trial has expired 1 year ago:
Had me in the first half there. But Bill Gates didn't write winrar and 7zip works just fine on windows, so I'm not sure what that whole rant was about.
- Comment on Microsoft may replace the Start button with the Copilot AI in Windows 12 1 year ago:
That would be because Cortana was hot garbage at doing anything and was significantly slower than just typing my query by hand.
If they built an assistant that was worth half a fuck maybe we might have used it now and then. I'm not very confident that Copilot is that. But it's going to be more useful than Cortana was almost no matter what they do with it.
