- Comment on I’m small down there and get my fiancé off with a big dildo. Do you see any issue with this? 2 days ago:
No way - you straight up say she enjoys having sex with you, and you’re making sure she’s taken care of. Who cares how it’s done - you enjoy it, she enjoys it, and you both get to finish. I see nothing but wins here, king.
- Comment on The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" *while I was watching it* 2 days ago:
You mean it when to “They don’t want my money anymore since they removed it from the tier I was paying into, so they won’t mind me getting it in other ways”
- Comment on Whatever happened to the days when shit just...worked? 4 days ago:
Yup, and you’ll see the idiots I droves coke to defend it, too - “but the water resistance!” As if they’re swimming with their phone or something. The S5 was fine for using in the rain and getting splashed.
When they removed SD cards from the more recent phones, the idiots were out there in droves telling me how nobody uses SD cards but me. Crazy what some people are willing to store on somebody else’s computer, and how much people are willing to over-pay for storage. Absolutely wild.
- Comment on Whatever happened to the days when shit just...worked? 5 days ago:
Nope, in fact I got good at IT shit because it seldom worked and I had to do the work of troubleshooting and figuring things out. And times were better because we had that ability.
Now everybody just expects things to work, and they don’t care about having any ability to learn about it or fix it, and we’re all paying for it. Things are likely getting shittier over time specifically because of people refusing to learn and accepting “If it doesn’t work, I guess I need to buy a new thing”. Fuck that line of thinking - if it’s digital, it can be done eventually. It’s just a case of figuring out how, or waiting a bit for hardware to get to the point where it can be done.

Hold on hold on, are you saying the Lemmy server I registered on is… A LIE? THERE ARE LIES ON THE INTERNET?? Oh noooooo
- Comment on PetSmart won't let you leave a review if you have adblockers on 3 weeks ago:
Meh, I guess they don’t want any reviews then… Sucks to suck, sales will drop and they have nobody to blame but themselves
- Comment on Homebrew, de facto standard package manager for macOS, now forces Apple's $99/yr notarization bullshit for all casks. 5 weeks ago:
But I thought Mac was just Linux for people who loved to spend money… Seems on brand to me.

I remember when you used to be able to just enter the Wadsworth constant in the URL and it would jump you right to the good stuff
- Comment on Why do seemingly all politicians (and no one else) do that hand gesture when they talk, the one where it looks like they're holding an invisible fishing rod? 1 month ago:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_jive
Not really tho.
- Comment on Why do seemingly all politicians (and no one else) do that hand gesture when they talk, the one where it looks like they're holding an invisible fishing rod? 1 month ago:
It’s silly how some of them do this while simultaneously pushing ugly and aggressive policies.
- Comment on Youtube can detect VPNs now... the fuck? 1 month ago:
The pushback would be when they cry about monetary losses for something they literally don’t even sell anymore. Is this not why they’re always trying to take down ROM sites?
- Comment on Youtube can detect VPNs now... the fuck? 1 month ago:
Which is why there needs to be better pushback “Okay, so where exactly are you selling a functional SNES cart that I can plug into my SNES and play?” as an example.
- Comment on Are there communities online where artists share their art for free / donation? 1 month ago:
Man, I forgot all about Kongregate. Flash games with achievements was a cool idea.
- Comment on Youtube can detect VPNs now... the fuck? 1 month ago:
People should educate others on how to get content not available in their area for fee without the hassle.
If media isn’t available in your area, then the company is telling you they don’t want your money. There is a $0.00 loss to them if you pirate it.
- Comment on Why are people using the "þ" character? 1 month ago:
Kiss my schloß
- Comment on How do Ghostwriters work? Does the person the book is about say to the writer I will give you 2 or 20 percent of the sales or is it a 50 50 split? 1 month ago:
Word!
- Comment on What's the deal with breakfast in bed? 1 month ago:
Wtf… Who brushes their teeth BEFORE they eat?! That’s like wiping your ass before you shit
- Comment on Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others? 2 months ago:
I dress for myself unless I want to try to exploit something, then I’ll dress to fit in because a lot of normies are stupid and actually think different types of clothing means something.
- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 2 months ago:
Not natively, but you could log it locally and I guess publish that to a site or something
- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 2 months ago:
Going back to IRC would be fun.
Discord is okay for chat, but a lot of communities seem to think that Discord is a perfectly cromulent support channel… I guess that’s cool if you like to answer the same question a bunch, and want it to be impossible for people to find their answers via Google.
- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 2 months ago:
I hate discord with a passion. I wish we’d go back to message boards - properly indexed websites that you can search to find discussions on things you need.
- Comment on photopea.com now locks out users blocking ads 2 months ago:
Krita in Linux has been amazing. I’ve never used Affinity, and I’m far from a pro… But I can do most of what I used to do in Photoshop in Krita fairly naturally. It’s way easier to transition to than GIMP ever was.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 2 months ago:
You call them “steamed jams” despite the fact you are obviously not billed?
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 2 months ago:
I wish companies would go back to putting SD card slots in all the phones again
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 3 months ago:
Users are getting dumber by the day. The people arguing back to me about “this is a you problem” when I mention reasons why device ownership is important is way too fucking high.
This is why you gatekeep hobbies. Keep the dipshits out so they don’t become the masses that ruin what you enjoy.
- Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell 3 months ago:
Nah, they just moved them between 9-5, so now your work day is twice as long as your personal time is twice as short.
- Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell 3 months ago:
Wow, a Zombo reference in 2025? Hell yeah!
- Comment on Modern Windows in a nutshell 3 months ago:
Windows is horrible at informing in general. The event viewer is a terrible mess to get through, too. I wish I could get paid as much as Microsoft to deliver products as bad as Microsoft.
- Comment on When Americans Fly Economy, They're Actually Paying for Someone Else to Fly Private 3 months ago:
The problem is the massive gap between the two. Once again, advocating murder and mass suicide because “we all die eventually”
I’d much sooner advocate just living as much of a full life as you can, and doing what can be done to fight back.
- Comment on When Americans Fly Economy, They're Actually Paying for Someone Else to Fly Private 3 months ago:
Well, creating posts and content that suggest both side is only going to throw more people into the uneducated/uninformed bucket.
