The guy that talked to an empty chair has thoughts.
- Comment on The USA spends $15k/student annually which is 30% higher than the global median. Why do U.S. schools have "fundraisers" where kids are incentivized to sell stuff to people? 1 week ago:
Capitalism.
- Comment on Nearly half of streaming subscriptions are for plans with ads 2 weeks ago:
Exactly this. We had a once in a generation chance to change how people watch TV and movies, and we fucked it up once again. We’re right back to paying for something with ads. Cable TV was better than broadcast back in the day because you could hear swears and see nudity, but suffer through ads for it.
- Comment on What are some examples of series that only have a good first season, and should be dropped after that? 2 weeks ago:
I’m going to get downvoted to oblivion, but Stranger Things. Season 1 was perfect, and in my opinion the rest have sort of been all over the place.

I think what you’ve got is fine.

True.

Why does Sony keep doing this?
- Comment on What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game? 4 months ago:
Outer Wilds is the correct answer. I wish I could unlearn that memory and play it again from scratch.

- Comment on Skyrim Is 13 Years Old, But Elder Scrolls 6 Is Nowhere in Sight While Bethesda’s First Four Games Took Only 12 Years 6 months ago:
Hot take: I’m fine with Bethesda taking their time to release a game if that means it’ll be higher quality. There are thousands of games released a week. Hi play something else in the meantime.
- Comment on Washer estimated "1 minute left", took 13 minutes to finish 6 months ago:
To co-sign on the stupidity of embedded washing machine firmware, if we lose power, the next time you start the washing machine you’re presented with an error message saying the power has failed. Like, no duh. You have to acknowledge the error message before you can start a new load.
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 6 months ago:
I’ve never worked in the service industry, so that might still be a thing, but even if it is, that shouldn’t have to exist.
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 6 months ago:
They missed a step. "Waiter is paid below the already sad minimum wage because tips are somehow factored into their paycheck. "
Also don’t forget the folks working in the back of the house. Tip if you’re able, despite our shitty system.
- Comment on Linux hits exactly 2% user share on the October 2024 Steam Survey 6 months ago:
We got our 2 kids laptops for Christmas that are now running Linux, and steam, so I’m doing my part. They previously didn’t have their own computers, so this should count.
- Comment on Lowest bidder quality 8 months ago:
I used to live in a brick rowhouse, and the arched transom started to crack. I thought I’d diy repoint it myself, only to find out that a previous contractor had “fixed” it by jamming cardboard in the cracks and filled it in with caulk. Totally legit.
