• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Autism has been announced!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Equal time rebuttals from people like John Oliver, Steven Colbert, and Jon Stewart.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The level of discourse in the US right now ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  And when it’s actively embraced by the entire executive branch of the federal government, like how the hell did we get here?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ay, chihuahua!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They are neat dogs, but they often have a bad case of Little Dog Syndrome where they lose their shit if bigger dogs or animals are around.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disney sells us imaginary heroes while supporting real world villains.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But Disney has also been tearing down the imaginary heroes with movies like Captain America Civil War and The Last Jedi.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Trying No Man’s Sky for probably the third time. It’s clicked a bit better this time. I jumped back in because of the Corvette building, took me probably a week of evenings to finally be able to build one. It’s pretty darn good, I think it finally clicked. The storyline still feels like the longest checklist tutorial ever, 30+ hours in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Don’t Patronize Us’: Data Center Charm Offensive Irks Opponents in Rural Georgia⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The data centers want your water, less landowners to fight over running all the infrastructure, and a rural government that is dazzled by the promise of the tax revenue. Which will probably be less than expected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who plays like that x_x⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I play SO many demo or early access games without the Invert Y option, so it’s off to discussions to ask the developer to add that so I can play.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who plays like that x_x⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Elite, Wing Commander, and Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe shaped me before looking up or down was even a thing in FPS games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian report raises concerns over age-verification software ahead of teen social ban⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a great time to be anything other than an adult white male. Everyone else being attacked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Request] A good multiplayer mechwarrior-like game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I bought it about a year ago and had a lot of fun with it. There are a lot of different gameplay systems and the combat is satisfying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Name this minivan⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  SurvivaVan

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For starters you do your research and don’t buy that hardware, or maybe better you buy it and then return it because it doesn’t allow you to install the software you want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mississippi's age assurance law puts decentralized social networks to the test⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is that though, are other US states in any way bound by the laws of Mississippi? They have no representation in MS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The US government could get even more Intel stock if the company ends up losing control of its chip manufacturing business⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been on AMD CPUs for all my recent PCs, generally cheaper and just as good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An alien invasion⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Donald J Trump hasn’t anal probed me, or harvested my organs, or put me into a slave labor camp on Omnicron Persei 5.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FTC chair alleges partisan filtering by Gmail; Google says spam filters not ideological⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s quite likely that Republicans have worse mail list management. I somehow started getting Donald Trump emails and I never signed up for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FTC chair Andrew Ferguson warns Google not to filter or suppress emails sent by Republicans over Gmail⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had about enough of these fascist snowflakes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨House Oversight and Government Reform Committee to investigate Wikipedia over allegations of organized bias⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is nothing to investigate, Wikipedia is a private organization and if it has a bias it is none of the government’s business.

  The party of “small government?” “Don’t tread on me?” What the hell happened, Republicans?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Intel details everything that could go wrong with US taking a 10% stake⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also how is not socialism? Imagine the wailing from Repugnants if the Democrats did this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I "sabotage" my own online content to throw a wrench in AI training machines?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the truest post I have read in a long time. Most people aren’t brave enough to say these things but they are all completely true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Schools in Florida are testing armed drones as a defense against school shootings⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They will decide they don’t really want to do it after all. After millions has been given to various companies and contractors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t do it. No matter how cool your ex seems, odds are this situation with your girlfriend moving into the house would cause big problems in ways you can’t foresee.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top 50 news websites in the US in July: BBC drops five places as paywall introduced; Most report traffic declines.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I read an article that suggests classified ads used to support newspapers and hard journalism, and the Internet and sites like Craigslist took away that revenue to pay reporters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think if Valve would release SteamOS 3.0 for PC that would make a bigger dent in Windows. TurboTax just announced they will not support Windows 10 for the new version and that’s probably just the start for Win10 abandonment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone know why this weird CD won't fit in my CD drive?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They make really good spin fidgets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨95% of Companies See ‘Zero Return’ on $30 Billion Generative AI Spend, MIT Report Finds⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a search engine with a natural language interface.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I already subscribe to Bluesky. It’s fine but I get so tired of being in an echo chamber even if I agree with most everyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft breaks Windows reset and recovery⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what happens when corporations become so large, their product so ubiquitous, and have so many customers that they don’t need to worry about actual quality or service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes | Reveal Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks ok, but sorta just reminds me I need to play Deadlock more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Is Power-Hungry and consumers are paying the price⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re going to get it and you’re going to pay for it with dollars and your water supply.
