- Comment on What could possibly go wrong? DOGE to rapidly rebuild Social Security codebase. 6 days ago:
This is absurd, they have no business doing this.
- Comment on Have I Been Pwned owner, pwned. 1 week ago:
Solving the “being human” part of security will probably never happen, which is why you’re encouraged to do stuff like use 2FA, different passwords, service isolation and stuff like that.
Anyone and everyone can be fooled at some point, best to try and limit the damage.
- Comment on Samsung CEO Jong-hee Han has died 1 week ago:
I don’t have an opinion on the man personally, but I won’t buy a Samsung TV as they are ad riddled, terrible to use and are pretty fragile.
- Comment on Silent Hill f has been banned in Australia, and no one knows why 1 week ago:
Silent Hill Fortissimo?
- Comment on [Discussion] What would it take to selfhost some of the backend that Tesla's connect to? 1 week ago:
Not that you aren’t entitled to your opinion, but software running on a Tesla is, in many ways just as mallaible as code on a vacuum robot.
There are several challenges, but basically the protections stopping people from reading and writing firmware would need to be defeated.
I think there have been some software jailbreaks on earlier models already that have been patched, but software is complicated, it’s hard be bug free.
- Comment on Ken Kutaragi has a Nintendo PlayStation in his closet 1 week ago:
Sick, this is a genuinely cool piece of hardware history I wish we had a chance to explore more.
- Comment on Just a croc wearing guy living in Boot stomping world 1 month ago:
Thanks for clearing up the source for me. The classic Enix SNES font should’ve been a giveaway though
- Comment on Report: Unity continues mass layoffs with 'abrupt' communications and 5am emails 1 month ago:
There’s a lot of people losing their jobs today that didn’t do anything wrong.
- Comment on Could you imagine a Nintendo title being advertised like this today? (Conker's Bad Fur Day, 2001) 2 months ago:
I mean the fact that it’s mixed in with all the other games and not in a T&A section.
- Comment on Could you imagine a Nintendo title being advertised like this today? (Conker's Bad Fur Day, 2001) 2 months ago:
+1 basically went through the same mental process.
FWIW, I don’t have a problem with adult content on game stores, hell I think we should be more chill about it, but let’s call a spade a spade and say what it is. Better yet, separate it into its own category that you can lock or something. Whoever approved it clearly doesn’t care.

I dunno, I’m pretty sure you can go to the Nintendo e-shop on your switch and find straight up smut. Don’t get me started on Steam.
- Comment on Devs of chill arcade freeriding game SNØ: Ultimate Freeriding use the Steam Deck as their performance target 4 months ago:
The steam deck makes an awesome platform target for PC game devs. You know what to expect and what your best “minimum” experience should be.
- Comment on PS5 Pro is struggling to improve some games, despite its power advantage 4 months ago:
Silent Hill 2 is a strange beast, you can tell it runs horribly. I’m sure a cracker or something is figuring it out.
Don’t buy the Ps5 pro though, there’s no point.
- Comment on [Crowbcat] Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster: Demake till you drop 5 months ago:
This dude used to point out legit game quality issues, but I’m not sold on “the game isn’t horny anymore”. I dont really give a shit about that.
That and the RE4 remaster was genuinely good. Starting to feel like an edge lord.
- Comment on SSD capacity could quadruple by 2029 — 8Tb NAND will bring big and affordable SSDs to the market 5 months ago:
And Apple will finally sell the iPhone starting with 256GB
- Comment on Over 170,000 EV chargers in limbo as Enel X Way exits North America 5 months ago:
Yet another example of companies making irresponsible anti consumer choices. You should have to pay the piper if you want to start dancing to this tune. That or you should be forced to open source your proprietary works.
- Comment on 7 years ago there were no billionaires worth more than $100 billion - today there are 18! 5 months ago:
When is it ever enough?
- Comment on The 42 year old new hire at your job confesses to you that he has had 48 different jobs in his life. What is your opinion on that? 5 months ago:
That’s the right mindset.
For those reading, don’t let them fool you about down selling your worth. If you’ve got the skills they want, and you show that, they’ll pay you. Job history conversations are just a way to try and leverage lower pay or benefits on you.
- Comment on The 42 year old new hire at your job confesses to you that he has had 48 different jobs in his life. What is your opinion on that? 5 months ago:
There’s not enough context here to have a strong opinion, but I’ll add that personally, nothing has given me a bigger raise than getting a job at another company.
