- Comment on Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games 4 weeks ago:
Maybe they’re trying to get potential players of Elder Scrolls VI so hyped that they’ll still play the new game even if it’s sold ‘games as a service’ style
in which case, fuck that
- Comment on Good ol' Reddit, at it again (and again, and again, and...). 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I think they’re banning/blocking using AI right now. Either that, or they literally have the moderators fully on board with their campaign.
If you really want to see what things like banning/suspension do, check out your Contributor Quality Score (CQS) here when you can: old.reddit.com/r/cqs/
I went from ‘Highest’ to ‘Lowest’ with one ban, and as far as I can tell, your CQS has an impact on the visibility of your posts.
- Comment on Ugly Big Box Stores are Literally Bankrupting Cities 5 weeks ago:
Other than the paltry poverty-wages they pay employees, almost every dollar that locals spend in a big box store leaves town and travels straight into some billionaire pocket.
- Comment on What programs do you wish a good FOSS alternative existed, but doesn't or most of the FOSS alternatives simply aren't good? 5 weeks ago:
I’d love to see a user-friendly, easily-implemented FOSS alternative to the entire Android system.
The options that exist now often can’t get past all the defenses that Android and phone manufacturers put into systems to secure their own data collection/revenue. I have an older Motorola phone that I literally can’t install another operating system on.
We desperately need a stable, user-friendly, and hardware-adaptive replacement for Android. I don’t want that shit on my phones any longer.

Shit, I remember degaussing monitors. I also remember picking up a power supply I was working on before lunch, not remembering that I had powered it on earlier to test it, and the shock throwing me against the wall.
Ah, the good old days.
- Comment on Spoon knows what spoon must do 1 month ago:
Yes. But, we are conscious beings and we can choose our spoonness.
Are you trying to accomplish something? Some work you need to do? Be like spoon. You have one purpose—to accomplish that objective.
Choose to be like spoon, and have a blessed day.

Now I’m imagining this too.

This game is so good. I hope Larian builds something even better for their next go.

God bless the students protesting.

Leon dying would help.
- Comment on Good ol' Reddit, at it again (and again, and again, and...). 1 month ago:
The world is toxic because of people like Leon.
- Comment on Good ol' Reddit, at it again (and again, and again, and...). 1 month ago:
It’s not ‘someone’ I’m talking about. It’s a very specific person, and Leon barely qualifies as a person. He’s like a disease of culture/society that needs to be eradicated before culture/society dies.

- Comment on Child poverty hits record high in UK with nearly 4.5 million in low income households 2 months ago:
A small number of multi-billionaires and a squad of bootlicking lackeys are responsible for this and for similar things across the planet.
None of the standard ways of doing things are going to solve this problem.
The small number of multi-billionaires must be dealt with.

Fucking interesting!
- Comment on Good to exercise at home instead of gym? 2 months ago:
Kettlebells! Kettlebells are a great tool to have for home workouts. You might want to start with a lighter one–even if you’ve worked out some, you can still wear yourself out with even a 35 lb. kettlebell.

Digital piracy can get you at least one of those happy things.
- Comment on Day 236 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing until l forget to post Screenshots 2 months ago:
The story is really what makes it so good–you start to feel invested in the character, in the world, and that helps with getting deeply immersed in the gameplay. It’s an incredibly well written game.
Beyond that, the screenshots show a lot–it’s a world that feels very lived-in.
Also the gameplay is a ton of fun. Open world, lots of places to explore.
- Comment on Day 236 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing until l forget to post Screenshots 2 months ago:
I agree.
I also just can’t really play games that force me to think about my bank account while I’m playing, charging fees or subscription rates just to fully participate in the game, like seeing a bounty hunting mission that requires me to send money before I can start it. Totally breaks the immersion–I play games so I don’t have to think about the real world for a bit. Making me enter bank details wrecks that.

I loved playing this game.
The online version of it fucking sucks though.

I’ve become a strong proponent of the joys of piracy.
- Comment on And now Bezos is trying to inserts ads everywhere 1 year ago:
Yes! I’m right there with you.
- Comment on And now Bezos is trying to inserts ads everywhere 1 year ago:
Pirate everything. Pirate streams, torrents, whatever.
Pirate. Everything.
