- Comment on How far away are we from someone using AI to create an animated TV show by themselves. 2 days ago:
I used to watch AI Peter quite a while ago, turns out it’s still live www.youtube.com/@ai-peter
I think it gets the text promos on its discord then it animated scenes based on the topic. Sometimes is funny as heck.
- Comment on How do I get over fear of cooking? 4 days ago:
Maybe start with more simple things? What I feel is simple is like oatmeal or pasta.
Maybe take a cooking class? They can teach you how to do things so it won’t be as scary.
- Comment on my idiot friend printed parts of my 3d printed gun experiment with pla instead of abs 1 week ago:
I usually see people mount it on a vice and use a string from a distance away, plus behind blast shields.
- Comment on How many Nintendo Switches do I need for a family of gamers? 1 week ago:
If you want extra controllers I recommend the 8-bit-do controllers. They are cheaper than Nintendo. The ones I have work on switch, Xbox, pc, android, iOS, etc. they also sell a dongle to work on many more consoles. (I use the dongle on Linux and allows me to play wireless).
I already agree with most of the comments here, just wanted to add info about 3rd party controllers.

That’s awesome! GTA V just screwed everyone on Linux! What a rug pull.
- Comment on Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST) 3 weeks ago:
I switched to Linux mint maybe 6 months ago and it’s been great. Just a bit of adjustment for which programs I needed to get some things done. Also turns out some stuff was WAY easier to get running such as my JavaScript twitch chat bots, I didn’t even need a tutorial and I got it running in terminal. My wife also using mint at the same time I switched and she has been liking it too. Good luck and know there’s a ton of people here that can help you out.

I just mark them all as spam, now I get way less of them.
- Comment on Goodwill is out of control 4 weeks ago:
I stopped going to goodwill a while ago.
Prices too high.
Also Caught them a few times taking the sale of the week items to the back storage so no one can get the $1 blue tags or whatever color of the week it was.
Also heard the manager yelling at an employee for missing one of the sale items.
I still go to all the other brands of thrift stores, there are like 30 of them in 10 miles, maybe more. And they are ALL cheaper than goodwill.
I also used to go to goodwill outlets and get stuff cheap by weight, but I no longer see hard goods or DVDs there anymore. So I stopped going.

- Comment on Steam Now Warns Consumers That They're Buying a License, Not a Game During a Purchase 5 weeks ago:
I did find a few on GitHub, but the one I tried had an error after a few downloads, so I just manually got them all.

Also don’t forget to download the offline installers from GOG. I spent all of last week doing that
- Comment on Anon browses ancient memes 1 month ago:
I know that flash animation alone was a HUGE part of the old internet. At least there is an archive for some of them called “flashpoint”.
- Comment on GTA Online is no longer supported by Steam Deck thanks to a slightly baffling Rockstar anti-cheat update 1 month ago:
it’s a setting that can be changed to make it compatible but sadly rockstar won’t do it. Wtf
- Comment on Nightingale's Realms Rebuilt update arrives tomorrow and aims to revive the game with a handcrafted campaign 2 months ago:
When the game came out it had a free weekend. I tried it. I started to make a base in the place I spawned in, then I had no idea what to do next lol

Maybe this is why I have been seeing more drivers wearing masks.

I bet it was from a chain mail back in the day, that if you put that in your profile then your safe, too bad it’s not true.
- Comment on Have you ever realized just how broken you are? 3 months ago:
My aunt is very controlling, so I completely understand how you feel. My aunt wants to control every aspect of my life, she tried to rob me of my money to gain even more control over me. I feel like a slave in my own house trapped because of her. Soon I will get out of this situation but you’re not alone in that feeling you got seeing normal people doing normal things. It’s even weirder for me telling normal people of my aunts abuse because most people never seen a narcissist and this deception to gain full control. My aunt plays “I’m so worried about my nephew” but it’s to cover her abuse, so people don’t believe me.
- Comment on How do you get into wild camping, it seems so overwhelming and a lot of information to try and gather? 5 months ago:
If you have a vehicle, consider car camping. Some of the YouTube I have been watching are “Cheap RV living” and “SUV RVing”. Both of these channels show how little you really need to live in a car.
Something to keep warm, something to cook, somewhere to poop. Lots of people get a little battery bank to keep their phone or laptop charged. Try not to use your vehicle power when parked but you can charge everything while driving. I have been watching a ton of that camping channels because my wife and I are about to live in our car for a while and find where we will move to. We spent the last year gathering everything we think we need for the trip using these videos. People live in cars as small as a Prius (which has climate control when the car is off). We have a slightly bigger car, but I think we can do it after seeing so many people living in cars.

- Comment on What side do you open a banana from? 6 months ago:
I used to open it from the stem side, but then I saw video of a monkey open from the bottom… I tried it and it was easier to open especially the less ripe ones.
