Yeah I was more thinking the mouse be free plus any replacements in the future.
Then you would break even after about 5 years ($60)
- Comment on Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meeting 3 days ago:
Honestly I wouldn’t mind if a company charged like, $1/month or something reasonable like that but for some reason some asshole made it standard practice to charge $10-$15/month for literally anything and now everyone uses that as the starting point for their “services”
- Comment on I love stardew valley. looking for an alternative that is made for controller experience. 4 days ago:
There a free to play online game called Palia that’s pretty chill.
Not as farm intensive as stardew, but you do have a few plots to grow crops and you can refine them into jams and pickled goods, etc.
Can also cook your food into meals, give gifts to villagers to build up relationships, and each villager has a story and background to learn.
There is also mining, tree felling, plant foraging, animal hunting, fishing, etc.
It’s a first person 3D world, and I haven’t tried it with controller but I imagine it would be fine.
It’s very chill, there is pretty much no negatives for any action or inaction that you take.
Main storyline quests are not too bad either, there is a story to the world that develops as well.
- Comment on A young woman was sexually assaulted while out DoorDashing. Two days after she reported the assault to DoorDash, they deactivated her account and she can't access the money she's owed. 5 days ago:
It does sound like drunk behaviour. Or maybe even old person behaviour.
- Comment on Mary E. Brunkow, one of this year's Nobel Prize winners in Medicine, has only 34 published papers and an H-index of 21. 1 week ago:
Honestly if I see someone who publishes like 200+ papers I would just be wondering… What the hell did they contribute? They’re churning shit out the door so either they weren’t involved much and did the bare minimum to put their name on the paper or it was mostly inconsequential and non-impressive shit that you could churn out in a few weeks.
- Comment on Excel's AI: 20% of the time, it works every time 2 weeks ago:
Only when people use the wrong input, garbage in and Grange out.
In the same vein I can’t think of any instance where exactly had calculated things wrong unless there was a fault in the formula that I made.

Goldilocks zone is basically just where life can survive.
Even if we stay within the Goldilocks zone doesn’t mean that most of the species alive today won’t go extinct because it fucks up the seasons or the magnetic poles or tilt of the earth, etc.
- Comment on Uh oh lol 4 weeks ago:
I think there’s maybe more risk with the solar system being thrown off balance with other gravitational forces pulling things out of orbit. Even if earth just gets pulled away from the sun a little we are screwed. Or even the moon pulled away from earth somewhat.

That’s a real winter where it’s enjoyable
I have lived in areas where it’s -30 to -35 and 12+ inches of snow on the ground from November to may. Personally I did quite like it as well but it’s not to everyone’s taste. The first scenario I described is where I think the most people would enjoy it.
- Comment on arriving 5 weeks ago:
I love winter when it’s a real winter. I think most people who hate winter live in an area where they only get half winters.
When each day is generally -5 to -10 degrees celsius, and you have a constant layer of snow around everywhere for a solid 2-3 months, is when winter is my favourite season of the year
But when you have an average temperature of -1 degrees to 5 degrees, and you get random flurries on snow that melt and freeze constantly, then occasional freezing rain and hail, that’s when winter sucks.
- Comment on arriving 5 weeks ago:
Autumn is better than spring.
Spring has too much melting snow from winter and hasn’t warmed up enough, so it’s always cold and damp.
In autumn the ground is still bone dry from the what of the summer, so even when it rains it just soaks into the ground and you’re good. Then the heat of the summer is still around as it slowly cools into winter, so you still get warm days and cool nights.

Sure, someone just got shot and the crowd is panicking and trying to escape.
Let’s just stand here in the middle of the exit and fill a video, blocking everyone’s way out! Absolutely brilliant.

Didn’t the British leave Britain for America to get away from the church and give themselves their own rights?
- Comment on I wish there was a system to verify that a webpage was written by an actual human before showing me it 5 weeks ago:
It’s getting ridiculous. The internet is ruined.
Search for something simple like how to change a tire and you get a 10 page article starting with “Firstly, what is a tire? Well…”
- Comment on Aged like milk 1 month ago:
Americas entire culture around guns needs to change, not just a little bit more training and education.
People who misuse guns don’t respect them or the power they yield. They views them as toys, and more often than not fuck around and find out.
Teaching them how to lock a gun up and telling them it’s important won’t change behaviours until people start to respect guns and fear them. Not casually pose with them for Christmas cards with their grandbaby in the room.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
It’s not that you can’t make it through the denizens, making it through the denizens is usually easy. It’s just a waste of time for the most part.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
I haven’t played silksong, but I’m just going off other games in the past for my experience.
If you make it through the hallway of meaningless denizens that just waste time and get to the boss, then die to the boss… Why waste time going through the meaningless denizens again to challenge the boss?
I can see it on higher difficulties when you need to make sure you get through the meaningless denizens perfectly in order to preserve your health and resources to have a better chance of defeating the boss.
But when you just want to experience the story on lower difficulty why make the denizens less powerful to make the boss easier when you can instead just put the save point in front of the boss in instead of the denizens? You’ve already made it through the denizens, it’s not like you’re skipping content.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
Eh, make it optional. On hard difficulty make it a thing, medium difficulty allow it to be skipped.
- Comment on "Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership 1 month ago:
YouTube should have a way to filter out certain content.
Like sub 1000 subscriber Chanel’s, 1000-10,000 channels, >10,000 etc
Sometimes you just don’t want to watch the big time YouTubers.
- Comment on US agents arrest 475 in raid on Hyundai-LG plant 1 month ago:
And how many hiring managers and plant operators were also arrested for hiring people who weren’t legally allowed to work there?
Because I guarantee you they knew they were not allowed, and did it anyways, in order to save money.
I also guarantee you that if no management staff face consequences, they will just hire the next group of workers that comes along since they don’t give a shit if you arrest their workers.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 1 month ago:
It’s particularly infuriating when the censor doesn’t even inhibit the ability to read the word. Like, a child can still figure out what that says.
- Comment on holup 1 month ago:
Ugh I love being absolutely loaded up with covers from toes to chin, but yes it can’t be on a hot summer’s day with no AC.
Love me a good cold winter’s night with the windows wide open and the floor fan blasting wind right into my face though.

- Comment on Constitutional right to a wild garden with weeds and bees to be tested in Ontario court 1 month ago:
A weed is anything you don’t want in a particular area. Even the most hardcore people with wild gardens probably have a few plants that they definitely do not want.
Like an entire yard of blackberries bushes, or giant hogweed which burns you if you touch it, or others which have noxious pollen, etc.
- Comment on 2hot2handle 1 month ago:
Yeah I do no think mansplaining is not a thing that happens, it absolutely is and is incredibly annoying and insulting.
I just don’t like how people assume someone is misogynistic and mansplaining because of a single comment on the internet and get all accusatory.
It is more of a thing that you need to witness a person doing multiple times to women in order to definitely make an opinion of that person.
If it were a YouTuber that constantly does it in multiple videos then ya fair, throw that in the comments all you want.
In this case though it’s jumping the gun a little bit.
