- Comment on Every toddler becomes a hackerman when they find a tablet 5 days ago:
Tieing shoes is done in 3d. One more dimension of complexity. Tablets on the other hand have a flat screen, so the toddler only needs to work two dimensions to use it.
- Comment on I mean... I don't see the problem? 1 week ago:
In theory yes, but in practice those 4 people would be standing on a plane (i.e. Ground).
- Comment on Spotify 30 minutes of uninterrupted... Just kidding 3 weeks ago:
I feel the same about youtube. I pay for premium, but sometimes creators bake in their own ads. I wish youtube would pay creators enough so they wouldn’t have to do it.
- Comment on Spotify 30 minutes of uninterrupted... Just kidding 3 weeks ago:
You also support big tech by giving them traffic and watching the ads. The only way to not support them is to not use it.
- Comment on Spotify 30 minutes of uninterrupted... Just kidding 3 weeks ago:
Podcast ads are easy to skip. Still, i pay subscription to my favourite podcast network to support them, and it’s more convenient not having to skip.
- Comment on Transitioning in STEM 4 weeks ago:
Is this unique to women? Do men experience anything similar in women-dominated fields? I’m not actually sure what these may be; teaching, childcare, hair stylists? I realise this may make me sound misogynist, but I’m really clueless.

- Comment on Anon is smarter than a genius 2 months ago:
Not to worry, I’m binging a few addicting podcasts already and I need something to fall back to once they run out. Recently discovered “Lateral” by Tom Scott (the youtuber).
- Comment on Anon is smarter than a genius 2 months ago:
Wow, they made 4 episodes about him, each over an hour long.
Haven’t listened to Behind The Bastards but will give this one a listen.
- Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones? 2 months ago:
Something tells me the companies sabotaged the smaller phones so they can charge more for the giant “pro” devices.
I opted for the smaller pixel 9pro last year because i didn’t have to compromise (it has the same specs as 9pro plus). My previous phone was 7 pro, it was the bigger model and if i went for the smaller 7 model, I’d have to forego the telephone camera.
- Comment on Mitosis 3 months ago:
If the words meaning has changed, what’s to new word to use when we mean literally (in its original meaning)?
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 3 months ago:
I love my 9 pro! The size is perfect, and i didn’t have to sacrifice on camera this time.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 3 months ago:
Pixel 9 yes, but Pixel 7 didn’t have the telephoto camera that 7pro had.

Isn’t it true of all AI technologies?
- Comment on Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit 3 months ago:
If you’re buying on ebay and use PayPal, PayPal provides the consumer protection. That’s been my experience anyway.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 3 months ago:
It’s easier to flip the switch to turn it back on than to fumble with the plug. You can get a variant without the switches if you don’t like, or simply leave the switch always on.
- Comment on Google is now forcing gemini in their gmail app 4 months ago:
“adding a feature” = “forcing”
The profile image is still there, right beside the gemini button, and you can still swipe on it.
- Comment on Look Ma, No Batteries! Hands On With Lenovo's Self-Charging Keyboard 4 months ago:
You mean you still need a dongle for the dongle?
- Comment on Look Ma, No Batteries! Hands On With Lenovo's Self-Charging Keyboard 4 months ago:
Too bad usb ports have mostly disappeared from laptops, so Bluetooth is the only way. Unless they started making usb dongles?
