Silo, one of the very best Apple TV shows.
Watch it, read the books. It’s worth it
- Comment on Size of an adult Moose. And they are not as friendly as Bullwinkle 1 week ago:
This is why Volvo specifically crash tests their cars against fake moose.
It’s 800kg of muscle on stilts.

Elmo has your tax data, he’ll just make it so that tax returns are filed through X 😀

There is a reason why the Italian mountain police uses the Fiat Panda (other than it being an Italian car)
That fucker will go ANYWHERE
- Comment on People who live in hot climates, how do you deal with the heat? 4 weeks ago:
”But it’s a dry heat” is a saying for a reason 😀
- Comment on People who live in hot climates, how do you deal with the heat? 4 weeks ago:
Cold is easy, wear more, burn stuff for heat.
Hot is hard. When I’m already fully naked and still sweating, what then? Lightly fan myself with something?

This one: changedetection.io
I self-host it and it’s been pretty reliable at auto detecting prices on random webshops

I run a watcher on all the disks I want to buy.
I get a notification when the price goes down and I nab them for 50% off usually.

I’d just tweet “poop” at Muskrat and Donald 24/7
- Comment on Coffeezilla does a third part of his CS:GO gambling expose...where he squarely puts the blame on Valve 1 month ago:
Just check how much money GTA online has made for Rockstar every year. It’s an 11 year old game that makes half a BILLION dollars yearly.
No wonder they’re not in a hurry to get GTA 6 out. It MUST be better than GTA online both for gameplay and microtransactions as well as have the tech for live service
- Comment on GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam” 1 month ago:
So you can just pop that folder on any computer and run it, without installing Steam and without a Steam account?
- Comment on Anon gives a piracy history lesson 1 month ago:
They cache torrents, magnets and ddl links at an astonishing scale.
You can put in pretty much any even decently popular magnet or ddl link set and get a direct download link with near infinite bandwidth (my 500Mbit connection is saturated every time)
- Comment on The B-lister who tried to take down Hollywood’s most powerful stars 1 month ago:
Imagine trying to outplay Ryan Reynolds in the PR game
Dude got a full-ass billion dollar movie franchise going by “accidentally” leaking test footage
- Comment on GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam” 1 month ago:
GoG Vault would disagree with you on that.
You can download the full installers and keep them, nobody can take them away or disable it remotely

Real-debrid is a weird one, it’s clearly you paying for piracy, but they’ve been around since forever.
- Comment on Anon gives a piracy history lesson 1 month ago:
Direct download piracy and streaming is surprisingly popular.
With a bit of effort you can stream any movie directly to your TV for a few moneys a month (or free, but paying for the essential bits removes the jankiness)
Basically you select the movie, a system finds the torrent or DDL, a service downloads it (or has it cached) and you stream it to your device.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice 2 months ago:
Yes they did, not owning the game was FOMO, and they weren’t free at the time.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice 2 months ago:
In-app purchases and limited time game passes are hardly heroin
- Comment on Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice 2 months ago:
Nobody is forcing people to buy anything, you CAN resist.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 players rip into Arrowhead for 'straight-up ridiculous' Killzone crossover prices, CEO defends the choice 2 months ago:
If you’re too weak to resist FOMO, maybe stay off the internet
- Comment on Well, I guess that settles it 2 months ago:
So this is terrorism but they refuse to give terrorism charges to local militias?

A footlong sub (not a meal) is around 13€ here.
I can get a full ass restaurant meal for that
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 - Update 2.2 is live! 2 months ago:
The PS4 was underpowered for it and it never should’ve been launched on it. Pro was ok-ish
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 - Update 2.2 is live! 2 months ago:
I played through CP2077 at launch and found like two bugs.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 2 months ago:
For those unable or unwilling to find employment, there is Basic Assistance, the United Nations’ global welfare program. Over half of the Earth’s populace relies on it for survival. Without jobs, these people have no money, so Basic provides shared accommodations in government housing complexes, meagre food in the form of Gray-tasting textured protein and enriched rice, minimal medical care in government clinics, and even recycled paper clothing, dispensed from automated kiosks with a thumbprint. All of these services are provided free of charge, but those on Basic are subject to mandatory contraception and cannot legally have children, apart from the regular “baby lottery” allowing for a small number of births each year
