- Comment on What's up with "Plex Servers"? 6 days ago:
I am the Plex guy in my group of friends and family. I think there’s probably a bit of confirmation bias at play. Being on Lemmy alone puts you into a niche area of Internet already, which is going to make hearing about geeky things like home labs more common.
So yes, they exist.
- Comment on Can anyone explain why? 1 week ago:
Alcohol costs money. Middle class is dead. Probably will see a lot more people making homemade things.
- Comment on Yeah. I'm on the spectrum alright 1 week ago:
I think that’s more its bottom. I think it shakes its bottom as a mating dance or something.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Or pull the trash cans to the curb!
- Comment on How do you fight doomerism/pessimism in these trying times? 1 week ago:
Yep, specifically home defense, not carrying in the public. My duty to retreat ends at my house. But I don’t leave the house that much, usually work from home, if I was out there more often I may want to look into open or concealed carry laws in my locality, but all those things cost money. I’m already annoyed that I felt worried enough to buy a gun in the first place. Annoyed that I feel it’s prudent to dig up my passport card and carry it in my wallet despite me not traveling abroad.

I bought a gun.

Lol yeah, just watched that clip, crowd was like 3 ppl lol. Not a high effort recreation.

I loved that movie!
- Comment on I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it? 4 weeks ago:
You can die any number of ways at any time for any reason. Why fixate on one? Probably more likely to die in an automobile accident or some mundane bullshit than nuclear war.
- Comment on Someone has a LOT of dusty computers 1 month ago:
I thought canned air contains bitterants and crap to make it unpalatable.
- Comment on Why does everyone put celery in soup stock? 1 month ago:
It does, but I only really noticed it first when using celery salt in my tuna sandwich mix. That’s probably the easiest way to spot it that I can think. Make a can of tuna and add a lil celery salt and you’re like halfway to a proper tuna salad taste just with that alone.

Holiday Inn Express. I feel smarter already!
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 2 months ago:
It’s just friendly rivalry, anyone who is experiencing actual hatred is unhinged and needs help. It’s mostly just bluster. I’d say there’s more animosity between fans of sports teams than gamers on different platforms.

No parking!
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 3 months ago:
That’s a good point too. Perhaps there’s more interstellar communication going on out there with the likes of Nova Core and other technologically advanced space faring groups that word would spread. Surely people would be curious as hell as to why half of life turned to dust randomly and go looking for answers.
I imagine many societies with no definitive answer would probably end up in religious hysteria.
- Comment on Why did Thanos, with the power of all the infinity stones, never think to try doubling the amount of resources in the world? 3 months ago:
If you want to try and rationalize it, I think he might say that the psychological scarring is necessary for all existing societies to change to more sustainable models, or risk another such culling in the future. Due to exponential growth of life, doubling resources, especially while societies continue to abuse those resources wouldn’t probably wouldn’t do anything long term (in his mind).
I am skeptical if such psychological damage can make enough long term inter generational impact, but hey it’s a theory.

Great job Twitch, real A+ quality work! Hope the entire company goes bankrupt.

Probably my favorite short story. This is another one of my favorites, definitely more obscure:

- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 4 months ago:
There’s a non insignificant amount of women dating only for free meals, and a lot of them expect men to pay for any number of friends. A lot of guys have opted for lower cost or zero cost first dates, like walks to screen for this.
- Comment on "I’m Canceling My Subscription": Xbox Players Call to "Boycott" Game Pass "Hard" Over 50% Price Increase As Microsoft’s Website Crashes from Mass Cancellations 4 months ago:
They make sense if you play through enough titles. If you have a pass and only ever play one game, that’s probably a bad idea.
- Comment on What is the difference between pansexual, bisexual, and omnisexual? How do I know which one I am? 4 months ago:
Yeah I personally think Q is a catch-all and makes additional letters redundant. I don’t even know what the full acronym is anymore.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 4 months ago:
Probably between 1-2 months for me.
- Comment on My Bank Recently Changed Their Interface to Move Money Between Accounts 4 months ago:
Source then Destination is the usual convention in my mind. I probably wouldn’t make a mistake either way because I’m the type to punch shit into my calculator 3 times to make sure.
- Comment on Practice makes perfect 5 months ago:
I decided to play Overwatch until I could zen out and exude peace and cooperation. The idea that a game and the people playing it could make me irrationally angry made me rue my lack of self regulation. Took time and patience but I did get there! I think patience is the key word there. Patience isn’t a strength of mine with the ADHD and whatnot.
- Comment on Every support thread on Reddit is literally this now 5 months ago:
I do too. But I blame Reddit for that, not the users.
- Comment on Every support thread on Reddit is literally this now 5 months ago:
You may disagree with the net effect of the decision, but the decision is not hard to understand. The people that are doing it are placing a larger value on harming Reddit as a platform to hopefully force corrective change or encourage movement to competing platforms. You place a larger value on preserving knowledge.
You say you get pissed. My question is do you get pissed at the person who deleted it, or do you get pissed at Reddit for alienating it’s own users to the point of deleting their own comments?

Take an edible and have a good time. No one cares.
