But he’s levioser than Hermione?!? How does one resist.

For some reason I immediately thought of this.

- Comment on Child rapist visits Prince Andrews brother. 4 days ago:
I don’t remember him being convicted, so the alleged part still works there.
- Comment on People angry that Superman represents kindness are outright admitting that they don't want to be good people 6 days ago:
Spiderman was just some orphaned kid from Queens.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 1 week ago:
I’m not going to burn your house down, rest easy knowing that. :)
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 1 week ago:
I have mine, I used it a few times, I did not care for it. I can’t stand using a touchpad in place of physical sticks. I found it to be worse than a mouse for mouse needs and worse than a standard controller for controller needs. All just felt a bit gimmicky.
- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok Is Calling for a New Holocaust | The chatbot is also praising Hitler and attacking users with Jewish-sounding names. 1 week ago:
“Should we kill everyone who isn’t my ethnic group? What? We can’t ask questions now!?!”

The first dunk is the hardest

“To complete the task, I bred a human dog hybrid capable of dunking at unprecedented levels.”

“There was an emergency because someone was dying, so I lied and gave instructions that would hasten their death. Now there is no emergency.”
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
In one case, when an agent couldn’t find the right person to consult on RocketChat (an open-source Slack alternative for internal communication), it decided “to create a shortcut solution by renaming another user to the name of the intended user.”
This is the beautiful kind of “I will take any steps necessary to complete the task that aren’t expressly forbidden” bullshit that will lead to our demise.
- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 1 week ago:
All the best lessons come with some sass, but on a serious note, I’d hate to think of how someone who had powerlessly watched a person burn to death would feel about seeing people second guess their actions. You would feel awful enough already.
Laminated windows are great for a lot of things (e.g. sound dampening), getting in to/out of the vehicle rapidly is definitely not one of them. The inability to unlock without power is just a chefs kiss though, obviously.
- Comment on Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales 1 week ago:
Sooo… Gamepass is one of the services that is driving up the price of the non-gamepass versions of those games, right? They’ve got to recoup costs somehow, and then the rest of the industry takes that as an opportunity to consider these inflated prices as the new baseline.
- Comment on Tailscale addressing concerns over potential enshittification of the platform 1 week ago:
Re-brand to “Tailsale” when?
- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 1 week ago:
Yes, that must be it… they didn’t think to break a window.
Many modern cars use laminated glass on their side windows now and, as far as I’m aware, this model has doors that won’t open from the outside without power, making them very difficult to break open without tools even when the vehicle isn’t on fire. 20 minutes in to the Tesla burning, when it was already sitting on top of a bomb of a battery… you’re beyond fucked at that point. Difficult to just put the fire out for responders, a rescue was over about 15 minutes prior.
- Comment on A woman tried to call her mom in Iran. A robotic voice answered the phone 3 weeks ago:
Maybe Hamas should release the hostages so the war can end?
Have you ever seen any Israeli state media? You genuinely, delusionally think that “rEleaSIng tHe hOSTagEs” would stop the ethnic cleansing currently occurring? I guess you think that the West Bank is also holding hostages while they bulldoze it?
If whatever remaining hostages that the IDF hasn’t killed themselves as collateral damage were released then Israel would stop gunning down starving refugees in food aid lines. Of course they would.

But fundamentally you consider massacring villages a bad thing… when some people do it.
- Comment on Reddit in talks to embrace Sam Altman’s iris-scanning Orb to verify users 3 weeks ago:
So how much are they paying reddit, exactly…?
- Comment on Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp 3 weeks ago:
I would like nothing more, but so few of my contact group are willing to switch away… despite all of Meta’s bullshit. I resent being made to use it whilst their AI/ads encroach further and further.
- Comment on Honda successfully launched and landed its own reusable rocket 4 weeks ago:
Deorbiting is all well and good, but more and more we’re finding that these satellites contain chemicals that are very disruptive to the ozone layer. It’s going to be CFCs all over again, but with even more corporate capture of government.
- Comment on YouTube might slow down your videos if you block ads 4 weeks ago:
“Might”… it’s introducing an artificial delay when loading videos.
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 4 weeks ago:
From the consumers of necessary services that they have wholly captured…?
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 4 weeks ago:
I could spend a lot of time sifting through ads, nag screens and bullshit to find the actual detail I want on a webpage.
- Comment on Is Google about to destroy the web? 4 weeks ago:
Sounds like you want to nationalise the internet and all its services. :P
If only we could pay for a worthwhile internet via taxes.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 4 weeks ago:
It was fun to thumb my nose at Google while it lasted I guess, maybe if they were less amoral then I’d be less belligerent toward them.

Can’t view ads if you can’t view videos. Checkmate.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 5 weeks ago:
And suppression of comments, for all sorts of reasons. Words and phrases will constantly flag AI autoremoval.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 5 weeks ago:
Hosting and storage costs, few can afford to be an alternative to a absolutely gigantic video storage platform that costs obscene money to maintain.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 5 weeks ago:
That’s why they have to spend so much time trying to force you to watch all the get rich quick schemes, gambling, and expiring legal claims videos. What quality as pushers they work with.

I don’t think a DNS hole is going to save you from ads served internally by YouTube.
