  I guess if they didn’t read the books, watch the show, or play the most popular and most recent game in the series, then it is fairly reasonable for them to be confused as they won’t know shit.

  Must be a Europe thing, I see listings this very moment for some under $100 that can fit a whole chicken.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Explains crossfit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We’re clearly thinking of or seeing different products. The older glass convection ovens I used to see were in the $300-$400 ballpark in the US back in the 90s and early 2000s, where as typical air fryers here are all sub $100 unless you are getting a “fancy” model that includes some sort of “grilling” or rotisserie functionality. As you are referring to prices in euros, I can only assume that we had very different marketed products.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Explains crossfit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The magic of “air fryers”, other than a good marketing name, was that they were also much cheaper that those awesome glass convection ovens and were not targeting a higher class demographic.

  We used to call Panama City the “Redneck Riviera”, but I grew up in FL. The panhandle is most definitely closer to “Lower Alabama” in hindsight. Funny enough, we did call the other part of north Florida “South Georgia”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The joy of going through pregnancy along with your sister⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ll compromise and say Florida panhandle, which is probably generally worse than either :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The joy of going through pregnancy along with your sister⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this a Florida pic? I feels like a Florida pic.

  Nano’s a knockoff, use pico.

  I don’t think patents and copyright “need to die”, but they are currently both overly broad and last far too long. Copyright protection especially has no justifiable reason to be even 1/4 as long as it is.

  That sounds like an interesting vegan mayo recipe. My wife has tried a few and none contained potatoes.

  I just want my grocery store to start playing JRPG OSTs. Buying vegetables while jaming to Chrono Trigger songs would be the best. Black Omen? More like beat Omen.

  Your ancestor probably pissed off a witch. My condolences

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"You should probably just throw it away"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m on a Debian based distro, but it is super simple. To hold a driver, or any package to a version just use “sudo aptitude hold <name or package here>” to undo this at any point just use “sudo aptitude unhold <name or package here>”. If you use the GUI package manager, there is a “Lock Version” option in a menu that does it.

  If you’re on a Redhat based distro, Federa et al, I believe the keyword is “versionlock” for yum or dnf, but I would definitely recommend looking at a reference for the command before blinding following me on that one.

  My first car had a bench seat as well, can’t say I miss that at all

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"You should probably just throw it away"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m responding to you, but this is more for others to see since you moved to AMD.

  I used Nvidia cards for many years on Linux and only recently switched back to AMD. The main issues I ran into with Nvidia were related to driver updates breaking things rather than things not working in general. So, I eventually found that holding Nvidia drivers to versions that worked without issues was the best bet and only updating them on occasion after they had been out for a bit and the consensus was that they weren’t breaking stuff.

  Four! lol, oh man, I bet they get awful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hate your job? how about you die and still have to do it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had no idea there was a sequel. Based on what you say about it, I’ll try to fake believing that is still the case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suikoden US vs JPN Box Art⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe that is what it was that I am thinking of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suikoden US vs JPN Box Art⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I could swear my original US release had some weird combo of the two. I gave away 90% of my PS1 and PS2 games last year so I can’t check now, but I really think it had the main image shown from the Japanese release on the case. Maybe the image was shown in game on the loading screen or something and I am just remembering it wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  $300 isn’t too bad of a price for a 47" 4K where they aren’t getting extra money from your data and ads. I went for the 1080p model because at the distance we sit at it was impossible to tell the difference based on the 4K Roku TV is replaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean it doesn’t have any of this yet :)

  I say this as someone with two LG TVs. Sure you can just not connect them to the internet, but a lot of people reply on the “Smart” part of the TV to view all their content.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I got their 1080p 43" “dumb” model for $150 not too long ago. I wouldn’t choose it for my main living room TV, but it is perfectly fine for what I needed it for and they can’t retroactively make it worse like the Roku tv it replaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dune explained⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am from FL and just moved to MN last year and it was similar for me. Snow doesn’t feel or behave like I thought it would based on TV/movies.

  Clearly an AI photo, and at first I thought “Well, of course only AI would be dumb enough to do this.”, but then I remembered I grew up in Florida and realized civilization was a mistake.

  There is a name I thought I would never seen again when I left Florida :(

  Oh, is it time for Sony to self-sabotage again?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets home from a long day at work⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Accurate. I love hot sauces, but I have had to tell friends and family to never buy me hot sauce because chances are it will suck or be samey. Especially those gift packs they push around the holidays.

  For your own sanity and wallet, it is best that you do not investigate further.

  And yet, whenever I get a new keyboard or caps there is a nontrivial chance my wife will steam them.
