LMFAO oh yeah the reading is the problem, not the low-effort AI drivel. Dumbass take.

Oh my God why do I see this all the time on here. Nobody wants a massive copy/paste wall of text of whatever garbage chatGPT generated.

I miss Vine
- Comment on Teens, with mixed feelings about their own phones, say their parents need to log off 3 months ago:
90% of the time when I see someone swerving in traffic because they’re blatantly staring at their phone, it’s somebody 50+ years old

What’s the stupid catch, I’m not reading this drivel
- Comment on DOJ quietly removed Russian malware from routers in US homes and businesses 4 months ago:
It’s incredible how many people leave their router with the default password
- Comment on Are dating apps fuelling addiction? Lawsuit against Tinder, Hinge and Match claims so 4 months ago:
I mean, they certainly don’t help with my affinity for drinking alone
- Comment on working at a hospital: should I remain in the room watching a patient until he takes a certain medication? 5 months ago:
Seems more like a question you should direct at your manager and coworkers, but you know you won’t like their answers, so you’re asking here where we lack context lol.
- Comment on Hogwarts Legacy Has Sold More Than 22 Million Copies In Less Than A Year 5 months ago:
I really enjoyed it, but got bored when it started pushing you to explore the vast emptiness that was everything outside of Hogwarts. Would’ve been a far better game if they’d nixed that whole southern area entirely and spent more time developing the castle.

I thought the whole point of using Gentoo was like for those 12 people globally who want to compile their entire system
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 6 months ago:
Still BG3, and probably will be for a long time. As well as tabletop DND now, since the game inspired me to finally give DMing for friends a shot.

What’s with the title?
- Comment on YouTube is deliberately crippling Firefox on ARM systems 6 months ago:
Same vein, devops/data engineering. Maybe I’ll give it another shot, I’d like to get off Google.
- Comment on YouTube is deliberately crippling Firefox on ARM systems 6 months ago:
I tried duckduckgo for a while and kept coming back to Google for “real” searches at work. It’s not as good for searching in my experience. Yet.
- Comment on New York intends to have electric air taxis by 2025 7 months ago:
The air traffic around the city is already insane, weren’t they already talking about trying to reduce it? I can’t imagine this happens
- Comment on What inspired you to pursue a career or hobby in programming? 7 months ago:
It clicked at a young age, I’ve been good at it and enjoyed it since I was like 13. Found out it was profitable a little later and yeah, that’s all it really took. Just the path of least resistance to be honest.
- Comment on Who makes those terrible sheet cake things that every Chinese buffet has? 7 months ago:
They usually have fruit, jello, pudding, and a shitty soft serve machine where I’m from lol

I’m so confused
- Comment on We’re All Math People: Some of the power of math lies in the very fact that it’s made up. 7 months ago:
I wish I liked math, I blame the way it was taught to me. I can only really grasp a concept when I get all the "why"s and "how"s. It needs to have a practical application. But that’s never how math was taught to me, it was always almost completely arbitrary. “You might need this in later classes” okay well that’s not at all motivating for me, nor does it make it interesting.
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
CEC is such a nightmare of a technology though. I have problems with it constantly to the point where it’s just expected it won’t work 50% of the time, and it’s impossible to troubleshoot

This is a good description
- Comment on My friend's reaction when he invites me to a bar and I order a root beer 7 months ago:
It’s just really sweet. Too sweet for me. The root flavor is hard to describe really, I can understand the toothpaste comparison, but I wouldn’t say it tastes like toothpaste.

Use your words.
- Comment on I wish 7 months ago:
When you run out of space, you just add a monitor to the right side. Honestly, it’s like you guys aren’t real developers.

Maybe you couldn’t

Ironic to hear this rapist try to champion consent
- Comment on Never start vaping, says 12-year-old girl with lung damage 8 months ago:
“kid friendly flavors” tend to be literally everything except for “chemical tobacco flavor” and menthol. And sometimes they go after the menthol too. They’re trying to kill the whole thing.
