- Comment on A rant about an experience I had with Google maps today. 10 months ago:
It may have thought you were taking the off ramp (GPS wobble) and rerouted on the fly.
Google maps has burned me so often, I now have a pre trip checklist for new routes. Check traffic along the entire route, the approximate on-ramp/exit #s I’ll take, and a quick look at streets around the destination.
They’ve enshittified the service so much I am just learning “normal” navigation now??? FFS.

You’re not supposed to restrain people having active seizures in any way, besides maybe putting something soft down to prevent head trauma
- Comment on Final Fantasy 17 needs "a younger generation" of lead developers, suggests FF16 producer 10 months ago:
It’s gotten so bad over there, they put Yoshi-P on a mainline FF game while simultaneously heading arguably the #1 MMORPG in the market lol

Dumb & Dumber just strolling in to ruin another fucking great source material and cash out millions.
Can’t wait to see how fucking stupid they make the wall breaker project.

Shoutout to when I parked my Python on the Gnosis and never logged in again.
I like to imagine a huge hangar full of cobwebs and a rusted skeleton of a ship.

Awe does the poor wittle business owner want another handout?
Get fucked and go bankrupt fucking parasite.
- Comment on MSI teasing a handheld gaming PC like the Steam Deck 10 months ago:
This is why I chose the deck. Least powerful in the segment on paper but those Windows handhelds are not going to age well lol.
- Comment on Amazing advertisement for Threads by Instagram! 10 months ago:
Yeah really weird how you people claim to not support racist religious fascists yet vote for them every time
Fucking fascist doesn’t even know the difference between liberal and leftist

You can use thinner rope for the former!
- Comment on Before It Was Carved 10 months ago:
The lazy and religious(insane) project manager didn’t even bother to clean up the rubble.
Like, they just left a giant pile of rocks right under the faces, it’s incredibly ugly and the pictures conveniently leave it just out of the frame.
- Comment on Is the 'rise of retail theft' problem in America overblown? 10 months ago:
If you would take the boot out of your mouth for literally one second, you would know that shrink is decreasing in almost all available metrics Avis the entire retail industry.
Facts don’t care about your feelings, corpo dog.

Meanwhile, people in eSSenTiAl industries: “there’s a holiday?”
- Comment on Chairs for the lazy 10 months ago:
I’d be more annoyed at having to plug all that shit in to recharge every night since I doubt there is some complex magnetic drive system under the flooring
- Comment on This would be a nice temperature for Easter, not for Christmas Eve. 10 months ago:
Wanna know a fun fact?
Air conditioning stops working effectively around 120F and decreases in efficiency as it gets hotter because the condenser cannot effectively discharge heat into the air.
Freshwater sources are drying up worldwide with absolute proof and nobody cares.
Take a serious look at moving somewhere moderate. The ultra wealthy are all building fortified compounds in the Michigan peninsula. Why?
- Comment on Two sides to Korea 10 months ago:
They’ve reached the point of deserving it. Modern Korean society is completely brainrotted by capitalist and right wing influence.
In the next 10-15 years we are going to see what real late stage capitalism is like, and it will be in South Korea.
A toast to the future.
- Comment on Very powerful flashlight 11 months ago:
Fun fact, you were probably using a low CRI light. Cooler blue hues wash out your target in a wall of white, which humans perceive as brighter without actually seeing anything.
An equivalent high CRI light allows you to see your target accurately at the same brightness level, but humans perceive it as darker even though you see more.
Modern flashlights are absolutely amazing and shock 9/10 people even in the trades because they still think of the hideous 90s maglites as standard.
