- Comment on Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons? 2 weeks ago:
Never heard of loadies but barfly was always a term used for women around me.

Great for you.
Not going to rip on your hobby or way of life. Maybe suggest you do the same to others.
There is plenty that is harmful in life but enhances it. Sorry you haven’t grasped that that is life. If you ever had a beer maybe you’d find that you don’t even want the alcohol but found the taste is good. But heaven forbid people make their own choices abbot life without some holier than thou person coming in to lecture them.

I don’t think it’s crazy at all. The US in particular still has basically no real mass transit and bars everywhere. Everyone knows there is still drinking and driving going on. Certainly not all those people are calling ubers.

It’s pretty clear you have no real concept of what you’re talking about all throughout this thread.
Best quit while you’re behind. Not everyone out drinking is getting lit or subscribing to all the other social ills you’re describing from your “observations.”
These takes are as lame as prejudging someone based on music tastes, hobbies, dress, etc.
- Comment on Futo updates their website, removing logos, clarifying micro grants 2 weeks ago:
I’ll be honest- never even heard of futo outside the context of immich (and I don’t even run it.) Interesting to hear they have anything besides that.
- Comment on PS6 and next Xbox console are both aiming for 2027 release, separate reports claim | VGC 4 weeks ago:
Nothing is better than the xmb on ps3. I hate the new UIs.
- Comment on TIL about Wiki.js 5 weeks ago:
Try to advise people bookstack is super opinionated. I personally don’t like it but I guess some do.
I run dokuwiki and generally like it but my only gripe is it’s not pure markdown.
Another you could check out is Otterwiki. I like a lot about it but don’t actually run it so couldn’t know entirely.

Can also use fpsync to speed things up. Handles a lot for you
- Comment on AI Coding Is Massively Overhyped, Report Finds 1 month ago:
At absolute best.
My experience is it’s the bottom stack overflow answers. Making up bullshit and nonexistent commands, etc.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I find a bigger issue for me is the lack of RSS. I refuse to subscribe to some dumb social media service simply to get links to your stories.
RSS being cut out means so many are forced to use some other bullshit just to get some semblance of a feed and that includes a whole bunch of other shit and not just what you want.
- Comment on GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago 1 month ago:
I guess I don’t understand. I got V and paid literally nothing past that.
The experience was great. No one has to buy shark cards or whatever the hell they are.
- Comment on Senators demand ICE cease use of facial recognition app 1 month ago:
Well it would help if voters and more importantly non voters did their job. Til then online bitching is useless.
- Comment on Roku wants you to see a lot more AI-generated ads 1 month ago:
I block it all at the firewall but would love to find something else.
Kodi is too finicky and not nearly as easy as roku. Debated using bazzite with waydroid and maybe that would work without Google services but unsure.
- Comment on Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis Rossmann 2 months ago:
And it’s not surprising he has that answer. I don’t think I’ve seen but one video from this guy but it was him talking about how that lead Dev from graphene was harassing him. And up to that point he was super big into graphene apparently.
- Comment on Let Google know what you think about their proposed restrictions on sideloading Android apps. - Android developer verification requirements [Feedback Form] 2 months ago:
At this point I’m ready to be an early adopter. I’m so tired that Im willing to do that.
- Comment on Homarr - A modern and easy to use dashboard. 30+ integrations. 10K+ icons built in. Authentication out of the box. No YAML, drag and drop configuration. 2 months ago:
No thanks. Yaml isn’t perfect but by God json is best used to return and parse data, not input it.
- Comment on SEC says it will deregulate cryptocurrencies with 'Project Crypto' 3 months ago:
I mean, global economy really. Crypto has the potential and already fucked a few banks when it shit itself which could’ve led to awful bank runs.
If/when it destabilizes the American banking system the entire global economy will follow its lead down, at least a bit.
Like I don’t think people understand how devastating letting a scam like this into proper finance can be. Finance itself already has way more latitude than it should- wait until this just splits everything wide open.
- Comment on I'm never going back to Matrix - Terence Eden 3 months ago:
It’s a good app. Sadly the price of entry puts people off.
- Comment on Another Google Pixel 6a catches fire after battery-nerfing update 3 months ago:
I too don’t understand why you would be responsible for THEM breaking the screen.
Imagine your mechanic breaks a part while changing your oil then says you’re responsible for the cost of it.
- Comment on People who have been in meetings to determine back to in office policy. What was the discussion like? 3 months ago:
I gotta be honest- sounds weird you weren’t already tracking output already.
Like was output before wfh just “theyre in the office today”?
- Comment on Nextcloud and Thinkfree Office sign partnership agreement to add more choices for users - Nextcloud 3 months ago:
I use it and like it but at this point I just assume theyre working on a full rewrite in a language other than PHP. Go, Rust, whatever. Wouldn’t be easy as they need to rewrite a number of applications for it too but quite frankly seems like the next logical step.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly (18 July 2025) 3 months ago:
I think what’s most telling is- if you use it then what do you care about putting “made with ai” on a flair? Are you ashamed?
- Comment on Wall Street’s AI Bubble Is Worse Than the 1999 Dot-com Bubble, Warns a Top Economist 3 months ago:
I honestly don’t think ai can hold out that long. It’s 2025 and the mood is already souring.
- Comment on OpenAI just launched its new ChatGPT Agent that can make as many as 1 complicated cupcake order per hour, but even Sam Altman says you probably shouldn't trust it for 'high-stakes uses' 3 months ago:
And produced with a shit ton of copyright violations, etc. Just about everything is immoral about it.
- Comment on HMD is ‘scaling back’ in the US, killing Nokia all over again 3 months ago:
Was useless when they dropped meego IMO.
- Comment on BREAKING: X CEO Linda Yaccarino Steps Down One Day After Elon Musk’s Grok AI Bot Went Full Hitler 4 months ago:
What’s awful is- I can find this news in other places using RSS. Not nearly as quick but… Who cares? Like wtf difference does it make?
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 4 months ago:
Like I’ve said before- their market is small enough they should be trying to get everyone they can to buy it.
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 4 months ago:
I never have to charge my wired headphones.

The sound quality on them blows no matter which you get.
