Never even heard of this game
- Comment on No one showed up to his party 1 week ago:
Yeah I’ve literally never had anyone bail on a party. If they are they just aren’t your friends (if they’re doing it consistently, things do happen of course).
I don’t agree with the invite everyone thing, but my brother-in-law does that and it seems to work for him. My wife and I hate it though because he always invites the worst people just because he’s trying to make sure people actually show up. So we get terrible ex girlfriends at things like a family camping weekend.
- Comment on Subway lovers posted 1 week ago:
Subway is just about the lowest quality garbage you can get. I think McDonald’s is maybe the only thing lower quality.
- Comment on Just another thing McDonald's ruined! 1 week ago:
So many typos and grammar mistakes that it actually says the wrong thing.
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 1 week ago:
As detailed in the cross post, all those stories just reference one source. It’s functionally useless information.
- Comment on Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey 1 week ago:
I’m very surprised anyone in this community would actually believe this. As several of the cross posts detail, India has better worker protections than this. It’s almost guaranteed fake. Also the text doesn’t match up across the screenshot so it looks photoshopped in some way.
- Comment on What happened to gaming? 2 weeks ago:
Nope, because I don’t give one shit about those kinds of games. Nintendo and indie games have never cared about graphics and performance. I haven’t owned a PlayStation since the PS2, and I’ve never owned an Xbox. Crazy how if your only console is a Nintendo then you never really care about that stuff. I do have a gaming pc but still play mostly indie games.

Are you sure you don’t have a dark mode extension on? It was black text for me
- Comment on Why isn't Putin receiving the same level of hate than people like Trump and Elon are? 4 weeks ago:
Or prefer to talk about what is affecting them, even if they do care about the situation in Russia, it’s pointless to talk about because the only way to affect it is through talking about people like trump.
- Comment on Playing Outside Simulator coming 2025 4 weeks ago:
Roblox came out in 2006? On what platform?
- Comment on If Open Source is so great... 4 weeks ago:
LibreOffice is more than slightly worse, but FOSS projects cover the gamut. The thing about them is that the best ones are usually laser focused on exactly what the user needs, rather than what makes the most money.
- Comment on Frog's Gift 4 weeks ago:
How much is it gonna cost us to create this new “D.O.G.E.” Department and pay Musk? The cost of these studies is completely irrelevant to the situation, like others have said the GOP props up ridiculous situations and makes it seem like they represent the entire situation, and they do it to disguise what they’re doing which is fleecing taxpayers money to private corps.
- Comment on Frog's Gift 4 weeks ago:
Yeah how much is this “office” going to cost the taxpayers? I would guess a lot more than $100k on a sunfish experiment.
- Comment on How do I download anything from Nexus Mods? 5 weeks ago:
Calling nexus mods shady is hilarious.
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 5 weeks ago:
Sure thing, but op clearly isn’t a noob.
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 5 weeks ago:
I mean they are lying because Java does support main as a top level function now. If this was written last year, sure. Also IntelliJ will literally install the jdk and manage it for you. Using asdf I haven’t had to touch the PATH for Java in probably over a decade (used sdkman before that).
This entire post sounds like someone that last touched Java in 2010 and wanted to complain about it again. Java is shit, but for none of the reasons in the post.
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 5 weeks ago:
The date of the post is from this week so it’s not accurate at all. Java does support main outside of a class now, and it doesn’t need to be static, or take args. You wouldn’t use JavaFX in this day and age either. Installing the jdk is absolutely nothing especially if you’re using IntelliJ as it will install it for you and manage everything. No library is even close to 3gb.
This entire post sounds like it was written by someone that last touched Java in 2010.
Source: am a Kotlin dev. Java sucks. None of these are the reasons why.
- Comment on Withdrawal is going to make people go mad 5 weeks ago:
Hawaiian coffee is $25 a pound, at least it was when I bought some there a few years ago
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve never even heard of it. Sounds excellent though. 😂
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 month ago:
All of the 3 ninjas movies. I was telling my wife about them and was talking about how great they were (this was like a decade ago) and went to look them up. Like 0-15% on rotten tomatoes depending on which one.
3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain is particularly bad at 0% critic score, 29% audience score, and a 3 on IMDb.
I loved all the 3 ninjas movies so much though.
- Comment on Tiny pp 1 month ago:
Pretty sure there was a study that actually showed big trucks correlated with big penises. Crazy.
- Comment on Be happy if you woke up today and your throat didn’t hurt. 1 month ago:
Weirdly enough, I literally can right now. Usually I cannot. I don’t remember the last time this was the case and I would not have noticed without this post.
- Comment on Why do "realistic" AI results for man/woman have non-proportion big heads compared to their bodies? 1 month ago:
My guess is focal length. Most facial photos with tons of detail will be close up selfies with a short focal length, thus increasing size of the face proportionally.
- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 2 months ago:
I care. Some people care more than others. That’s fine.
- Comment on Why am I seeing "plan your voting day strategy" so often? 2 months ago:
Anywhere you’ve got decades long republicans in office you will find it extremely hard to vote in America. Elsewhere it’s relatively easy. In Colorado I literally don’t do anything, a booklet explaining all the laws shows up in the mail a few weeks before the ballots do, then the ballot shows up and I can either drop it off in one of the numerous drop boxes, put it in the mail, or ignore it and go vote in person where the lines are short because nobody votes in person.
- Comment on Don’t ever hand your phone to the cops: Digital IDs make it tempting to leave your driver’s license at home — but that’s a dangerous risk. 2 months ago:
It doesn’t really matter if they do take your phone in the end anyway. If it’s that clear cut illegal then anything they manufacture as evidence wouldn’t be admissible in court…no matter what.

- Comment on just finished setting up i3 :3 2 months ago:
Looks like a corne/crkbd. You can buy the kits from several online shops
- Comment on Don’t ever hand your phone to the cops: Digital IDs make it tempting to leave your driver’s license at home — but that’s a dangerous risk. 2 months ago:
The MyColorado FAQ explicitly states that an officer cannot take your phone, even if they think your digital ID is fraudulent. This whole article is a ton of fear mongering. Digital IDs do not require you to give your phone to anyone, they do not require you to unlock (unless it’s a state specific app), and even if its a state specific app the cops aren’t allowed to take it anyway.

I use a Logitech mouse and do not have the problems you are talking about.
