  Tell me again, Daddy, how very unlucky I, and all my kinfolk are, not to be your SHITHOLE COUNTRY’S fifty first state.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stay home⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If one were functionally illiterate, you’d just see blobs where the letters are and can make up any punchline, racist or no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come people are stupid nowadays? Especially on social media⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because the human brain is a pattern-matching, rationalization engine and not a database with any sort of logic discrimination built into the interfaces?

  I dunno. Seems like the same result happens when we dream; buncha random stimulus with no bearing on realty, brain “invents” a narrative that explains the anomaly, and hermetically seals off that “truth” from evidence that would implode it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Survey says...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  MAGA. Make America Go (into the) Accretion (disc)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DOGE cut 20% of APHIS the agency that protects U.S. agriculture and now the screwworm parasite that wipes out livestock has returned to the U.S⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One of your own poets articulated nicely:

  Sold, stolen, arriving on the nightmare Praying for a dream.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve raises Steam Deck prices by more than $200⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget the body count!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone get this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ballmer dripping with sweat and screaming did wonders in the “taking eyes off Bill” department.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nerve-controlled prosthetics⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tightbeam line-of-sight IR laser should be the only way to control stuff like this. And I realize that means I can’t control my hands if they are in another room, which is a delta of 0 from the current human condition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Art of Surrender⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  4chan: The forever unwashed taint of the internet. Ever has it been so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Systems theory⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why I laugh every time i see a bottle of vitamins from “natural sources”. How is one supposed to discern the origin of a given molecule of ascorbic acid?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you feel about a 25 year old dating a 46 year old?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With my hands.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta go fast⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk if it could take down a satellite I know you don’t know.

  I do.

  And no it cannot, that’s only in fallout New Vegas. This is not possible to weaponize because: physics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I, too, sense a rising anti-intellectualism in today’s world in general. Just the other day some guy came by my place asking to “read the gas meter”. Whatever happened to the classics?!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This. I’m fine with auto complete, snippets and llm suggestions. But I still need to read and review and, critically, comphrend the code. I always review it’s work, and most often make changes that I know are better practices.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Street Racers "bad people"?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A quick scan reveals I’ve never committed a vehicular homicide, and do not engage in activities that are statistically likely to improve the odds that I will commit a vehicular homicide. I’m fine with with jailing someone who’d risk everyone around them with death and dismemberment for their entertainment.

  There is no such thing as an “instinct to drive dangerously”, it’s called “a choice”.

  Annnnnd fuck that choice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Street Racers "bad people"?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bad AND selfish. In generous quantities.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If A.I. is so fast and efficient, and CEOs are paid so much, why not replace CEOs with A.I.?⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Yes, an electronic brain,” said Frankie, “a simple one would suffice.”

  “A simple one!” wailed Arthur.

  “Yeah,” said Zaphod with a sudden evil grin, “you’d just have to program it to say What? and I don’t understand and Where’s the tea? Who’d know the difference?”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics'⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For sure. It was great. I’ve played every entry in the series and those 2 are the memorable ones.

  Invisible war was awful but the hellfire boltcaster was immensely fun to use on the Templars lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨(Rant) Don't buy Rockstar games.⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Step one: put this on your tinder profile:

  I have been permanently locked out and actually impossible to play any Rockstar Social - walled game on Steam.

  Step two: reel’em in. You’re free now!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help.⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but as a husband, we have waste heat to manage, plus just normal waste.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon goes home⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The best is when you are lying in bed at night and some odd mix of neurotransmitters unlocks a memory you haven’t thought of in years, and then you spend an hour crying about the gulf of time between then and now, for what/who you’ve lost, and managing the crushing guilt that follows when you feel awful about not tending to the garden of your memories better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dirt Man⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s just the “B” arc. Ah. But I forget about the mutant star goat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that because of the free surgery he’s going to give everyone who wears his obnoxious AI glasses and then subsequently gets punched in the face? Is that why we’re going to be at a disadvantage, Mark?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon conserves power⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  “You wouldn’t imagine downloading a car, would you?”

  Well? Would you?!

  …?

  ANSWER ME!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What can US citizens do to fight/prevent their country enabling genocide?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Learn basic electronics and how to solder to weaponize commercial drones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨skynet would be better than these clowns⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol @ everyone imagining that they (baselines) would be able to discern the motives and actions of a superintelligent anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh man. For me, Tetris. Every time.

  I get past the first dungeon no problems, and find the heart container, but as soon as I meet that old guy with his kite in the tree I’m lost. I think I need to craft a slingshot or something but I’ve no idea where to get the rubber for an elastic band.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So should subtractions!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Depart, men of education.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And then, for the coup de grace, immediately deny that there even is or was ever such a social network, and insist it was another one of their “wacky dreams”. And then later, they come to you to prove you wrong.

  Boom. Incepted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Win win⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  As an owner of both, my 2020 Ioniq BEV easily feels better than my previous civic, and my Subaru (though I’d want the suby for anything challenging terrain-related). Best car I’ve owned.
