  It’ll be a sad day when we lose such a beautiful singing voice.

  Praise be Hosana.

  Rockstar are good at optimising their games. GTA V ran better than GTA IV on the same hardware. I wouldn’t be surprised if GTA VI runs well on the Steam Deck.

  In the UK we have a chocolate bar called the Star Bar - it’s a LOT like a Boost - and it kinda has the same shape. I honestly thought it was a typo at first and I was like, “the fuck have Cadbury’s changed now?”.

  I’ve been in cafés where the food is being crawled all over by bees or wasps. It’s usually a good sign because it means the food is full of ingredients they’re attracted to, and they keep flies away.

  Removing a large buttplug. Note this only works if you’ve had a large buttplug in your butt all day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advertisements⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My nephew was getting worked up by constant ad interruptions in his iPad games (I know, I know) so I installed AdSense on their network to block ads. A week later my brother demanded I take it out becaus he wants ads back. I’m not joking - he actually clicks the sponsored links in search results, and it annoyed him that he couldn’t click on adverts in articles and on Facebook any more. Some people really are further gone than you might realise.

  Wow, they were spot on. Amazing.

  Well, one time in 2016 I did acid and spent hours watching Windows screensavers. That’s basically what they’re describing.

  …defines “Milk” as meaning exclusively the normal mammary secretion obtained from one or more milkings without either addition thereto or extraction therefrom.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to market plant-based products in UK⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Natural and unadulterated. So, yeah.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to market plant-based products in UK⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, I agree. I’ll still call it “oat milk” but I don’t think they should be allowed to call it “milk” in any form. I get they have quirky marketing and, IMHO, a great product, but allowing a corporation to use a work like that laissez-faire is pretty dangerous: oat milk isn’t naturally occuring and their product has lots of extra stuff added in (sweeteners, fortifiers, etc), neither of which should be true for a productive called “milk”.

  Aren’t those the guys who were found to be sharing everything with everyone and fought back hard against any kind of accountability or even acknowledgement?

  Have you tried using an AI service that will take the description you provided and render it as a creepy, completely humourless, fight-or-flight response inducing hallucination at the cost of merely boiling off a small lake?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s always this. “This brand new £1500 laptop I don’t share with anyone, coddle like a newborn and barely use for anything other than running Office is so much better than the £350 ten year old laptop I was sharing with my entire family and was used for playing video games, downloading warez and pirated media, and running Office.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, no. I have to use a MacBook at work and there is nothing it does well that an equivalently-priced laptop from any other major PC manufacturer doesn’t do better. Performance is good, but not great, and, again, is trounced by most of its equivalents, even the Surface Book. Window management in MacOS is appalling, the built in applications range from adequate to basically unusably bad (looking at you, Safari) and every bit of it seems to have been designed to be different first and better second.

  It is shocking difficult to buy a new laptop without one. Yes, I know about Framework, System 76, etc, but go to your local big box store and every laptop is covered in either Microsoft logos or Apple logos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you communicate "sorry, my bad" when you make a mistake while driving?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 52" screen mounted to the tailgate connected to a laptop on the passenger seat with a bunch of PowerPoints queued up.

  Sorry.pptx SorryNotSorry.pptx Thankyou.pptx NiceDrivingDipshit.pptx YouBlindMotherfucker.pptx Appreciated.pptx ILoveYourSprinterTruanoAE86ItsJustLikeTheOneFromInitialD.pptx

  Not all of those get a lot of use. I’ve never used SorryNotSorry.pptx, for example

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In fairness I got a Zune and they were so much better than iPods. Not just in comparing specs, but the user interface: it felt like I was actually browsing a music library, while the iPod was like paging through a phone book. That extended to the desktop software as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am looking for a Linux OS⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, but that’s not what you found. What you have there is a cat, which is also very good! In fact, the excellent news is that you can keep the cat and continue searching for a Linux distro.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I might actually be a respectable member of society⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  LSD is fucking boring. There, I said it. People say ‘on acid’ to mean crazy, unhinged and over-the-top but it just makes you notice things like shapes more and you have to specifically remember to swing your arms when you walk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Hey nephew, look, I know you really wanted an iPod and I gloated about all my iPods and I realise that was childish and honestly I think it’s great that you’re interested in actually owning your media so, look here, I got you a Zune fuck you.”
