Going out of your way to not answer the question lol.

But rampant and unchecked capitalism is still what ruined all of those things, whether or not it’s possible in other systems. The constant drive for line go up drives tons of shitty behaviors that directly lead to enshitification.
- Comment on Player two has entered the lobby 1 day ago:
No, they’ll just WFH. They’re important and make the rules, so clearly the rules don’t apply to them.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 narrative director hints at dialling back the toilet humour – WGB 2 days ago:
There’s a lot of decent non toilet humor and some really good gunplay. The tiny Tina dlc was amazing, but I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews of the stand alone game.
- Comment on Exodus, the new game being led by BioWare veteran James Ohlen, finally reveals some gameplay, and boy it sure looks like Mass Effect 2 days ago:
Wasn’t super interested until I saw it was a Hamilton book. Added it to my wishlist, will probably check it out, thanks!

Bruh, you can’t even afford a matter flamethrower.
- Comment on Anyone notice how Brian Thompson dies and suddenly aliens start attacking? 3 days ago:
Go to YouTube and search “Ukrainian drone drops bomb” and you’ll find tons of them. Like this one where the soldiers had no chance of hitting the drone.
- Comment on I don't know where I'm going to keep them all 4 days ago:
If you’re up to it, there are some high Calibre solutions out there that can liberate the books you own to be able to lend them to friends.
- Comment on Is it time to start a campaign against kernel-level anticheat? 5 days ago:
That’s the thing, you’re never going to catch everything. But anything important can be sanity checked by the server when the client checks in, all without opening a vulnerability in your customers’ systems.
So much kernel level anticheat is about offloading the processing power to the customer, and unreasonable desires for control over the systems involved and overall game environment (and probably a decent amount of data mining).
- Comment on Is it time to start a campaign against kernel-level anticheat? 5 days ago:
“Butbutbutbut server side anticheat is haaaaaaard and requires us to actually think about what values are actually valid and understand our own internal game states. Kernel level anticheat ~leta us be lazy~~ costs us less and requires less development time!”

And while Microsoft fucks up plenty, at least they’re a corporation with a reputation to uphold, and I believe they even have a QA team or 2.
Lol. Lmao even

The Omnissiah blesses us, truly. I recently invoked their power to repair a ceiling light, and with a standard invocation of healing and the expected percussive blessing, and the once broken light was working again.
All praise to the Omnissiah for easing the machine’s pain!

Who the fuck is this asshole, Jack Thompson?
- Comment on Whatsapp just developed a new murder weapon 1 week ago:
…is that not what the 👍 is for? Or is that too obvious a ‘cool, now fuck off’ response?
- Comment on A cool guide to US States that have a rat problem 1 week ago:
I find it deeply funny that they may not even get the reward.
- Comment on Other people's opinions don't matter! 1 week ago:
I will respect an opinion that is thought out, measured and based in reality.
Those are, unfortunately, few and far between at the moment. All other opinions are granted as much respect as the idea the opinion is based off of deserves.
And frequently that is ‘none’.

Where is the nuance in who a billionaire exploits for their wealth?
- Comment on Anon holds her bf 1 week ago:
Masking to keep a relationship is not worth it. It makes you miserable and eventually you lose sight of who you are and just become the person you think others want you to be and feel empty inside. Or worse, it leads to self hatred and you end up lashing out at people.

- Comment on I live in the green part 2 weeks ago:
Of all of the people I know who struggle with either gaining or losing weight I only know 2 people who found changing their diet actually affected their weight
As much as I agree with the rest of what you said, I’m literally an example of how diet can affect your weight. I had a terrible childhood growing up and was >250# all through high school because I ate shit food and drank a ton of soda. When I went to college I couldn’t afford that shit and actually had to change my diet and I dropped 70-80# within a year, and my now mother in law discreetly asked my wife if I was OK because here parents were seriously concerned for my health.
There is definitely a middle ground here where there are a lot of extenuating circumstances that lead to obesity, but there’s also a ton of terrible food packed with empty calories that are specifically formulated to keep you addicted to the dopamine hits, and its superficially cheaper to eat shit food than to buy whole foods and make real food. Especially if you have no equipment/spices or no knowledge of what to do.
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 2 weeks ago:
I only play single player games, so your attack has no effect on me!
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 2 weeks ago:
Copied from a comment I posted in this thread:
I got exactly one free epic game (subnautica) that I uninstalled and bought immediately the day I couldn’t play the game because I lost Internet and there was no goddamned offline mode.
Epic store is shovelware, and I can’t believe the amount of people who defend a 4th rate store comparing itself to the gold standard that can’t even offer basic functionality expected of a modern platform.

Yar, me as well.
- Comment on My knee gave out at work today and all I could think of was this 2 weeks ago:
I don’t have the excuse of broken bones, I just have really loud joints. Like my ankle which sounds like a whip cracking.
- Comment on Meal prep 2 weeks ago:
That’s because it is basically a convection oven, it just has a basket and a few extra customizations. But, as the video notes, a convection toaster oven is not a suitable replacement for an air fryer in most cases.
- Comment on Sniper Elite Resistance dev defends asset reuse - “if they’re there to use, why not use them?” 2 weeks ago:
Agreed. Especially if they’re creative like the halo devs and only use one rock.
- Comment on Why are $70 AAA games slashing prices so drastically? 3 weeks ago:
Never buy games prior to a holiday, there’s always a sale coming up that might save you some money.
