We need to map out the bunkers / assets of our elites. To better play chicken with them. Let’s all live like they do and if their example destroys the world, we make sure to clean up our mess on our way out… for the people who come after us.

- Comment on Time to bash Americans again 1 day ago:
Imagine being racist and wanting to enjoy it instead of making it political. In the US it’s culture war shit. In Europe you can go to a football match and throw bananas at the black players and it’s chill. It’s just easier to be casually racist in Europe because racism doesn’t exist there, and if it does, it’s not as bad as America.

- Comment on The duality of man 6 days ago:
In the context of aggressive foreign policy where we bomb the shit out of people… They are probably referring to how in the 1910s USA was stumbling through an incursion into Mexico to fight rebels / raiders. As we joined WW1, some saw us as a rowdy militia, like cowboys. We had to borrow materiel because we weren’t yet a proper war-machine like European countries were. Exactly 100 years ago that wasn’t the case though. Yet there would still be quite a ways to go until the era of “top 3 air forces” and super carriers patrolling the globe while drones blow ‘terrorists’ to smithereens.
- Comment on Train your brain 1 week ago:
They spent a lot of money and political capital to train their AI just for it to get leaked back to the masses.
If only every AI company scraping the internet would have their model be given back to the people. It’s the minimum they could do.

How much do you know about transformers?
Have you ever programmed an interpreter for interactive fiction / MUDs? It’s a great example of the power that even super tiny models can accomplish.
Also consider that Firefox or Electron apps require more RAM and CPU and waste more energy than small language models. A Gemma slm can translate things into English using less energy than it requires to open a modern browser.
- Comment on Today’s game consoles are historically overpriced 1 week ago:
But even before recent tariffs, modern console prices weren’t dropping nearly as fast as history suggested they should. In fact, Sony first raised the nominal starting price of the PS5 Digital Edition back in 2023, way before Trump’s current trade war was even on the horizon.
I’m not saying Trump is to blame but this is misleading. Trump hurt our economy with tariffs during his first term nearly 10 years ago. During 2023 he was releasing “Agenda 47” policies, in which he specifically mentioned more tariffs. Here’s Trump threatening tariffs 8 months before Sony raised the price

There’s two types of gamers.
People who like sandboxes with the understanding that there are some toys / structures to play with.
People who just like playing in sand and don’t care if a sandbox is literally just a box of sand.
- Comment on From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg 2 weeks ago:
He made adult music knowing it would be listened to by children. At some point in his career he must have realized he was talking directly to children while in the studio.
I’m sure he cares about kids and isn’t just a stupid asshole saying a line because something pulled his string.
You got a stick in your ass, Snoop!

Are you guys talking about Battlefield? A AAA fps with 128 players? With absolute bangers like 1942, Vietnam, 2142, 2, 4, and 1?
No idea why people like it. Dead franchise imo

Reminds me of when I got an ad showing intense heat and wildfires in my state, but the city names were AI generated Cyrillic text. Felt like a Russian was saying exactly that.
- Comment on WrestleMania was running wild on you 1 month ago:
Two possibilities.
1: It’s the calm before the storm. It implies nobody was egging this on. People were simply going on with their lives, when suddenly a thing happens. “Out of nowhere.” It’s a common trope both visually and in writing.
2: It makes autistic people mad.
- Comment on 13 skeletons 1 month ago:
13 skeletons is the max. To raise more you need a Bonelord. 13 Bonelords and you need a Lich. 13 Liches and you need a Titan.
After 13 Titans, 169 Liches, 2197 Bonelords, and 28561 skeletons… you reach Khali.
- Comment on Ubisoft: Microtransactions make games more fun 1 month ago:
An article about microtransactions, riddled with distracting, screen-dominating ads. They used a massive interstitial before the article even began!
I assume the article is praising Ubisoft for their scummy practices? "If you don’t like hundreds of

- Comment on Twitch's largest political streamer, Asmongold, shovels racist and xenophobic messaging to his audience of 52K+ live viewers 1 month ago:
Asmongold just says stupid things and then only responds to the lowest hanging fruit.
He’ll say we can’t refugees because XYZ, then people will respectfully counter his arguments, but he effortlessly ignores them.
Then someone calls him a loser or makes a silly argument and that’s when he’s “You see? This is the problem.”
Just a circus act for idiots.

- Comment on Subnautica 2 studio begs rioting fans for benefit of the doubt after leadership axed by owner Krafton: 'The team that has been working on the game day-to-day ... remains completely unchanged' 2 months ago:
I’d rather have another team try to execute Subnautica. Unforgivable to make a survival game where enemies go through walls, you can fall through your ship, and your save becomes corrupted if you build too much.
It’s a AA game that was rough around the edges. Not much there to make you think “without the original devs the game will be totally wrong.”

- Comment on Day 342 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 months ago:
I learned to speedrun this but stopped from intense wrist/lower arm pain. I wasn’t great but I could do a sub 20 16 star and pull off breezeless occasionally. Never topless.
It’s still fun to play casually. I have an N64 so I’ll go get all 120 stars every couple years.

- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 2 months ago:
The internal explosive may malfunction from an external stimuli, such as a massive bomb detonation near it.
One-point safety sets cutoffs for how much yield can be produced from a malfunction. That’s for countries experienced with nukes who had time to fix their catastrophic failures.
Considering there’s many ways to design nukes, different countries have different technological capabilities, the answer isn’t a squeaky clean “No.” when someone asks if nukes can explode when bombed. Answers should have more gradation. And they shouldn’t imply a nuke in Iran wouldn’t catastrophically fail because sophisticated designs from countries allowed to have nukes have ironed out the wrinkles.
- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 2 months ago:
Yes. The people in this thread are wrong. Bombing a nuke can set it off, just not fully.
A nuke may require many precise detonations to function as intended. When everything goes right it will release it’s full power.
When an external explosion hits the nuke, only some material should activate, causing a relatively tiny explosion. Shouldn’t be any real fallout.
This assumes the designers specifically made the nuke to not go off from one explosion. There’s no rule that says you need to make nukes safe. And people shouldn’t dismiss a partial detonation of a nuke like it’s nothing.
- Comment on Nier creator Yoko Taro reveals the sad reality of modern AAA game development, “there’s less weird people making games” 2 months ago:
What is he trying to say? How can something be weird and unique but also consumed by millions of people as a popular product?
If he thinks riding a dragon in modern Tokyo to fight a big naked statue is weird and unique, he’s probably sad that the world has moved on from holding up sporks and going “lol random XD!”
The markets can’t sell Weird™ to the masses. Now there’s no “weird” people making super high budget art. Terrible!
