- Comment on Have you ever been invited to a search party? 1 hour ago:
Boots and pants. It wasn’t that fun. But we did get to ride quads so, actually it was a little fun.
- Comment on Valve are now removing a bunch of sex games from Steam to keep banks and card companies happy 6 hours ago:
I think they fear regulation so much that they’re willing to be this proactive to keep Congress off their asses.
It’s still weird to me that they never seem willing to test the boundaries, though. They’ve got more lawyers and lobbyists than they know what to do with.
- Comment on The Netherlands explores turning rail wagons into hospitals for wounded soldiers 3 days ago:
I’ll consider joining the fight if it’s a Koploper that comes to my rescue.
- Comment on ‘An uphill battle’: why are midlife men struggling to make – and keep – friends? 6 days ago:
Those reporting 10 or more close friends decreased from 33% to 13% during the same period.
Do “normal” people really have 10 or more close friends? I’ve never had that many close friends my entire life.
- Comment on Google hit with $314m fine for collecting data from idle Android phones without permission 2 weeks ago:
Doesn’t sound like the suit was about the collection at all and just about the Yakuts transmission costing users mobile data usage.
Vague articles are vague.

decentralized + federated = defederated
Could it be any more clear? /s
- Comment on Can AI run a physical shop? Anthropic’s Claude tried and the results were gloriously, hilariously bad 3 weeks ago:
Current AI systems can perform sophisticated analysis, engage in complex reasoning, and execute multi-step plans.
No, not really

hmm, I was thinking about visiting Calgary this summer. What’s up with Alberta?
- Comment on Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds meet for the first time. 3 weeks ago:
I like to imagine they were just side-eyeing each other the whole time.
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 4 weeks ago:
I replaced the polonium with 1 cup of citrus juice. It was incredibly acidic and soggy. 3/5 because I still like cupcakes.

Seems like everybody is itching for it lately.

The polarisation of the broadband emission shows the flux density of two orthogonal polarisations is anti-correlated with temporally shifting spectral structure observed.

- Comment on Is it normal that I have this inner conflict of not knowing where I belong? 5 weeks ago:
I wonder what environments Americans dream of like maybe more like large roads or suburban type environments. Maybe more rural/warm nature type environments. (I guess it also heavily depends where you are from like city vs rural)
Here I am, as an American, dreaming of smaller roads and walkable cities.
Grass is always greener, maybe.
- Comment on Scientists in Japan develop plastic that dissolves in seawater within hours 1 month ago:
If the material has to be coated to keep it from breaking down too fast, what is the point?
Presumably you could only coat certain faces of the material (like ones touching food). Or maybe the coating could degrade in another more time-known fashion. So if the coating would be expected to last no more then 3 years then after the plastic could start to degrade.

With the help of gravity!
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 1 month ago:
The only reason I started using cases is because they made the latest Pixels so low friction that they refuse to stay put on most surfaces.
- Comment on The Engine of our dreams exists. It's Clean, Powerful, Supercharged and 2 Stroke 1 month ago:
A clean 2 stroke? Smells like bullshit. Is this video actually worth watching?
- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 month ago:
I’ve been on the receiving end of these. It’s such a monumental time waster. All the reports look legit until you get into the details and realize it’s complete bullshit.
But if you don’t look into it maybe you ignored a real report…
- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 month ago:
Contributors is my favorite metric. It shows that there are lots of eyes on the code. Makes it less likely of a single bad actor being able to do bad things.
That said, the supply chain and sometimes packaging is very opaque. So it almost renders all of that moot.
- Comment on You have been in a prison of bone for your entire life 1 month ago:
My damned skeleton is imprisoned by this meat.
- Comment on A Presence-sensing Drive For Securely Storing Secrets 1 month ago:
What does any of that have to do with our pedantic argument about the use of the word “resourceful”?

Bro most people can barely heat up pizza rolls in the oven.
