Don’t forget AGILE. That should solve all of their problems, right?
- Comment on do ribbed condoms feel better than smooth during anal? 3 days ago:
Same. I prefer the ultra thins. Anything else really doesn’t feel differently on the receiving end, even the ridged ones.
- Comment on Women in STEM 3 days ago:
Shout out to the bad bitch Margaret Hamilton who was a coder for the Apollo 11 mission. She was a huge inspiration to me as a kid and they made a Lego set that included her.

There’s no way it’s really been 10 years, right? This game just came out. ;_;

Interloper!

A game where a tower of rectangular blocks are stacked, and players take turns trying to remove one block at a time without toppling the tower.
- Comment on Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills 2 weeks ago:
I can’t imagine a scenario where a person who needs to work on a computer will not benefit by typing quickly and accurately.
- Comment on Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills 2 weeks ago:
I’m pretty sure most jobs involve typing on a computer in some capacity
- Comment on Why are doctors so hands off and unhelpful in the USA? 3 weeks ago:
Finding a good physician is as difficult as finding a good romance or a good therapist. You need to shop around to find the right fit. After years of struggling with horrible Healthcare I finally found the perfect fit - a middle aged lesbian Nurse Practitioner working out of a health center that caters to lower income folks and the LGBTQ community. Every time I go in we chit chat for a few minutes, then she spends at least half an hour with me going through all of my concerns. She’s very thorough and has made a dramatically positive experience in my health. I can even shoot her an email any time and she gets back to me within a day.
I think it helps that the health center’s board of directors is entirely staffed by the physicians working there, overseen by an elderly doctor who spent his entire career helping the needy in his community.
Keep trying. It’s frustrating, but the right fit is out there.

Did you read the article? Mass surveillance had nothing to do with this.

- Comment on Peter Molyneux is back with new god sim Masters Of Albion, which looks like a stripped-down Black & White 5 weeks ago:
I’m a simple man. I see Molyneux, I get excited. I’m one of the few folks who thoroughly enjoyed every Fable game.
- Comment on New Toejam & Earl ROM Hack Revives Classic Mega Drive Game 5 weeks ago:
This was one of my first videogames. I wouldn’t call it a good game, but it’s certainly a vibe. I never did beat it.
- Comment on USA | Democratic Party Unites Under Banner of Silence on Gaza Genocide 5 weeks ago:
I saw on “Open Secrets” that Biden accepted over $1mil from Israel donations and have to wonder if it has impacted the DNC’s stance. I’m admittedly unfamiliar with the intricacies and open to information that would go against this assumption.
- Comment on From Baldur's Gate to Rogue Trader, the latest RPG-themed Humble Bundle is a horrifying assault on your time 1 month ago:
Yeah fuck humble bundle. I bought one for the first time a few months ago and the steam code didn’t work. Their support told me to pound dirt.
- Comment on What is the safest way for a partially disabled person in the USA to use prison for food and shelter as an alternative to dying homeless in a gutter on a cold rainy night? 1 month ago:
Former bank employee here. You don’t need a squirt gun. Theoretically you can walk into a bank, tell the teller you’re robbing them and demand $1, then sit patiently on a bench and await police. The problem is that the judge at your sentencing will see that you are not truly a danger and give you probation. You will also have to pay fines.
Bear in mind that prison is not free. You are charged every day you are there, and will receive the minimum care to keep you alive.
The best option is to get a bus ticket to a part of the US with fewer homeless folks and good safety nets, then get a social worker. They will require that you don’t have any living family who can help, so bear that in mind.
- Comment on Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads 1 month ago:
Just use Edge on sites that don’t support Firefox, if you must use them. Same as how we used IE for government sites back in the day.

Wasn’t there a short story about this?
- Comment on Reddit CEO teases AI search features and paid subreddits 1 month ago:
Who tf still uses Reddit? It’s all bots and power tripping mods nowadays. Lemmy is a million times better imo.
- Comment on USA | Kamala Harris names her vice presidential running mate 1 month ago:
I’d never heard of him, but his track record looks great. Especially regarding legalizing weed and supporting LGBTQ folks.
- Comment on Dynamic IP - Self hosting 1 month ago:
Namecheap domains include a dynamic DNS application for free and it works well. Be aware that it only runs on Windows.
- Comment on Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 5 Will Premiere with Two Episodes on October 24 1 month ago:
This show came at a perfect time imo. I used to be hooked on Rick & Morty but it has fallen off in recent seasons, and Lower Decks scratches the same itch. Looking forward to S5.
- Comment on Reddit blocking all major search engines, except Google 1 month ago:
Shadowbanning? Do you have more info on this?
- Comment on So is the global IT crash fixed yet? 2 months ago:
Yeah we good. The fix was ezpz and even a company with several thousand servers should be up now. End user workstations may take more effort, but it’s a 5 min fix per user.
Honestly this was half as stressful as Print Nightmare was, from an IT perspective.
