Our butt is connected to our head, just with a really long tube. Shorten the tube enough and your butter would also be in your head.
- Comment on Infosys co-founder once again calls for longer than 70-hour weeks - and no, he's not joking 3 days ago:
He probably thinks he works 80 hour weeks because he is including schmoozing with clients and company paid lunches and dinners as “work”
- Comment on YSK this is Ayatollah Khamenei, the leader of Iran. He always wear a black hat which means he is a holy figure 3 days ago:
Who decides who gets to wear the black hat? What if some random bloke goes out and wears one?
- Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes 4 days ago:
I’m always terrified to write stuff off because I fear I will accidentally write something off that I’m not really allowed to due to some obscure legalese and then I will get audited in 5 five years and owe 10 grand in late fees and interest or some shit.
- Comment on An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026 6 days ago:
Whelp guess I’m not upgrading my PC to ddr5 anytime soon 😂

No, whenever Trump is president years suddenly have 25 months in them. It did apply in 2020 but the phenomenon is back again.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I’m curious what a human brain would be like growing into being with absolutely no senses to inform itself about the world around it.
No sight to let it know where it is or what it is.
No sound to let it learn to communicate and think in orderly ways.
No touch.
No taste.
No ability to interact with its surroundings.
Yet all of the capability and potential of a regular person’s mind.
Would it be cruel to bring it into existence? Would it be able to experience negativity and pain and longing, confusion?

- Comment on Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" 1 week ago:
If I want AI for whatever reason I will go search for AI. I don’t need a chatgot like service running on my PC all the time for the handful of times I might want to use it. I will go to chatgpt if I need to use it for something.
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
Yes I would also love a new calendar. But we can hardly come to consensus on getting rid of daylight savings time let alone a new calendar lol.
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
I don’t see why it sucks, it just makes sense to start it on the winter solstice as the days start to get longer and longer / shorter and shorter depending on the hemisphere you are in
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t mind 6 days on 4 days off
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
Eh fuck religions, they can keep their old antiquated calenders.
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
I would like this calender but we would need to adjust it so that new years falls on the winter solstice.
Plus the 5 leap days would need to be a global celebration / holiday period, and the 6th day every 4 years a massive holiday.
- Comment on YSK about the French Republican Calendar 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t mind a 10 day week if it meant work 6 and then get a 4 day weekend.
But who am I kidding our corporate overlords would expect at least 8 on and 2 off

- Comment on Refrigerator ads are finally here! 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think a content provider should be allowed to have more than 5-10% of their content be advertisements.
Website screen space, newspapers, tv channels, etc
Instagram shouldn’t have more than 1-2 sponsored post for every 20 posts. At the moment it seems closer to 10.
An hour long TV slot shouldn’t have more than 3-6 minutes of advertisement. At the moment it’s closer to 20-30.
- Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin 2 weeks ago:
Windows has had a bug that’s driven me mad since before Windows 10 and it doesn’t seem they have any intentention to fix it.
When I try to rename files, I always click somewhere in the text of the name or highlight a specific portion, and then 90% of the time RIGHT before I start typing to add or change the name, it randomly highlights the entire thing so the whole text gets replaced instead of the one section I wanted to change.
INFURIATING and it’s been years that it’s happened, between two different versions of Windows!
There’s also another 2 or 3 other bugs that are just as infuriating but I don’t imagine will ever be fixed or changed because why the fuck would windows care.
- Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin 2 weeks ago:
I hate how tech companies just constantly want to change everything.
Just give me something usable that I can get shit done with and fuck off. I don’t want your changes and updates and new feature.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 2 weeks ago:
In my opinion if anyone has billions of dollars and hasn’t given a majority of it away to charity or those in need, that person is on some level at least somewhat an evil person.
Sure, much of it would be tied up in stocks and stuff that legally can’t be sold for specific purposes or timeframes, but if you have net worth in the billions and any stocks that could be sold for cash and then donated it should be. Or if you have an annual income that’s much more than you need to live an extremely comfortable life and then you just spend and invest the excess instead of donate.
- Comment on We shouldn't have to go to college in order to afford a house by 30. 2 weeks ago:
I mean, someone has to work. How do you choose who the unlucky bastards are that get sent to the field to grow food for the people who don’t have to work?
- Comment on God ****** dammit, here we go again 2 weeks ago:
How unique do passwords have to be in order to be considered safe? If they follow a pattern are they still safe or do these bots try alterations to the leaked passwords as well?
Like if your password to Reddit was reddit1234 and your password to Google was google1234, if the Reddit password leaked is your Google one still okay?
Probably not if it’s a human but bots shouldn’t be able to figure that out ya?
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 3 weeks ago:
No, just pull yourself up by your bootstraps and make a get a few million. It’s easy, ask your parents for a loan or something.
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 3 weeks ago:
You first need to have more than $1 million dollars in order to qualify for free money.
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 3 weeks ago:
He isn’t, the economy and business is all a rigged sham.
- Comment on The Big Short Guy Just Bet $1 Billion That the AI Bubble Pops 3 weeks ago:
I just phoned a business today that ended up with an “AI receptionist” when they didn’t answer the phone.
They wanted to take my name down, asked who I was leaving a message for, and then recorded the message…
My god what a painful process that was. It was absolutely useless. Firstly it got my name wrong, and then the name of the person I was leaving the message for wrong. No “Janet” my name is not Don it’s John, and no I’m not leaving a message for Kim Its for Kam. And then it needs to repeat your entire message back to you in order to make sure it didn’t fuck it up which amazingly the message was probably 95% okay but it was a giant waste of my time when a FUCKIN VOICEMAIL WOULD HAVE SUFFICED
- Comment on ICE's 'Frightening' Facial Recognition App is Scanning US Citizens Without Their Consent 4 weeks ago:
Is it illegal to have a facemask? People should start carrying around ski masks in their vehicles in case ICE approaches them. If they claim it’s illegal then why the fuck is ICE wearing them?
