- Comment on YouTube tests removing viewer counts — here’s what we know 2 weeks ago:
I’ve encountered so many AI generated videos that now I have to depend on view count since they removed dislike. And even view count doesn’t work as well because people click on just to see why there are high view counts, turns out it’s an AI video with high view count. Absolutely terrible practice. Youtube knows, they’re not stopping

- Comment on Nvidia blocks access to video card driver updates for users from Russia and Belarus. 3 weeks ago:
I do lol.
But now you’re forcing an entire country to use AMD and Linux, while ignoring the main issue. Pretty much one of the biggest computer companies who have their fists on a good chunk of our nation’s balls, and can choose to squeeze them at any time.
