- Comment on Is trying weed edibles worth it? 2 weeks ago:
You should 100% smoke first. You can control your high way better. With edibles, it’s a complete crapshoot on personal dosing. And since you never experienced THC before, it’s likely to be overwhelming and you’ll probably never want to do it again.
- Comment on Google Search referrals to the web have plummeted, AI links are 'less than 1%' of traffic 2 weeks ago:
You can completely skip DDG’s systems by just using your search bar though.

Just add Wikipedia to your search bar
- Comment on Robot dogs priced at $300,000 a piece are now guarding some of the country’s biggest data centers 2 weeks ago:
Even if you needed something mobile, it’s not like datacenters are exactly complex landscapes.
- Comment on Biggest wildfire in Nebraska history continues to burn out of control 3 weeks ago:
After taking a helicopter tour on Saturday of the areas where the fires are burning, Gov. Pillen said, “I think it’s important that all Nebraskans pray.”

Talk to other libraries
- Comment on Russia-backed hackers breach Signal, WhatsApp accounts of officials, journalists, Netherlands warns 4 weeks ago:
I agree, except I’d say it isn’t helpful to shame people who fall for this stuff by claiming only your grandparents would fall for it.
It’s more shame on Reuters for saying Signal and WhatsApp were “breached.”
- Comment on Motorola GrapheneOS devices will be bootloader unlockable/relockable 4 weeks ago:
FWIW, I thought the same thing. But then I bought some cheap Chinese buds and never lost a single one. I’m on my third or fourth set and still haven’t come close to losing one.
Though I still won’t pay for the premium priced ones.
- Comment on I wonder when someone is gonna make a parody porn called "The Gooners" based on the 1980s movie "The Goonies"? 5 weeks ago:
So who do youwant to see do the Truffle Shuffle?
- Comment on Google catches Beijing spies using Sheets to spread espionage across 4 continents 5 weeks ago:
I was confused at first, thinking that somehow Sheets’ systems were compromised.
The C-based backdoor uses Google Sheets as its C2 platform, can execute shell commands, and can upload and download files.
Instead, Sheets is just the command and control relay.
Which is pretty weird, though.

I prefer the Star Trek TNG episode where they kidnap a dozen children from the Enterprise.

Weird, I was quite confident in that memory. Thanks for the link.

They get reused.
- Comment on When did it become normalized to start passing credit card processing fees to the customer? 1 month ago:
It’s a static processing fee of $2.95.
- Comment on When did it become normalized to start passing credit card processing fees to the customer? 1 month ago:
This is why I’m always late on my water bill. The longer I wait, the smaller the percentage of the bill it is.
- Comment on "I am going to punch you" WHAT A BOSS! 1 month ago:
Fuck you.
- Comment on "I am going to punch you" WHAT A BOSS! 1 month ago:
I don’t know, sharing videos of kids doing stupid shit doesn’t seem like the thing to do.
- Comment on The Only Solution Capitalism Has Is to Sell Us More Useless Junk: Ad makers will never say the quiet part loud, but they increasingly know that we're unhappy and looking for solutions. 1 month ago:
No, I said markets describe a type of social interaction. You inferred all.
- Comment on The Only Solution Capitalism Has Is to Sell Us More Useless Junk: Ad makers will never say the quiet part loud, but they increasingly know that we're unhappy and looking for solutions. 1 month ago:
Markets are not uniquely neoliberal nor capitalist.

Modern infrastructure is not built by markets. University materials research is not driven by markets.
It kind of is, though. Modern infrastructure is built by companies. Universities acquire materials, labor, as well as share knowledge through marketplaces of ideas and information.
“Market” is really just a construct describing social interaction. You can’t really blame it for a problem since all it is is a description of reality.
- Comment on Why does most American's give shit to the French when if not for them we would have lost the revolution? 1 month ago:
Yeah, I really don’t think most of it’s serious. Like ribbing between friends.
Except the stupid political stuff from Republicans, like you said.
- Comment on Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras? 1 month ago:
Don’t worry, the majority of Ring owners still haven’t.
- Comment on Americans rarely refer to the US as America 1 month ago:
That’s just not true.
- Comment on Sharkord - an open-source self-hostable Discord alternative with voice, video, and real-time messaging. 1 month ago:
Building the full stack of a functional real-time voice and video comms system as a lone dev is not a trivial undertaking.
Even if they put 40/wk or more into it, I’d still be impressed. Like I said, not impossible but these people are rare.
- Comment on Sharkord - an open-source self-hostable Discord alternative with voice, video, and real-time messaging. 1 month ago:
Less than a 4 month commit history and one dev. Not impossible maybe, but sure is suspect.
- Comment on What should I NOT do in front of rich people? 1 month ago:
Although the current Pope is from Chicago so he knows better than to eat pizza with a fork like some kind of filthy degenerate.
They have that knife & fork deep dish out there, don’t they?
- Comment on outlawing pedestrians 1 month ago:
Best just seal yourself in a hermetic box and be done with it, then.
- Comment on What Happened To WebAssembly 1 month ago:
This makes questions like “how fast is WebAssembly” a bit hard to answer. […] What people actually mean is “how useful are the constructs of this language to efficient mappings of modern hardware” and “what is the current landscape of systems taking advantage of these constructs”.
- Comment on Do other female mammals smell like fish down there or is that exclusive to women? 1 month ago:
Women do not wear perfume to mask the smell of their vagina. What the fuck?
