- Comment on Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick 1 day ago:
Yes but you have to put a slit in front of it so the wifi waves turn into wifi particles.
- Comment on I guess I'm just a cubicle monkey now 3 days ago:
I wonder if halo universe Excel has holograms.
- Comment on The torque better not be too strong with this one 1 week ago:
I don’t get the problem with flathead, for household applications it seems the most superior because I can use literally anything in my house to drive the screw (butter knife, credit card, a housekey)
plus almost every size of flathead screwdriver can fit in almost every size of flathead screw.
- Comment on ohh ... 1 week ago:
In Japan if you work full time for a larger employer, you pay into “shakai hoken” (societal insurance) this pays you like a third of your salary if you get injured and have to refrain from work for awhile. (This is at least partially paid for by your company because you can only legally be fired in Japan if the company proves beyond a reasonable doubt you were either belligerent or the company couldn’t survive without you)
- Comment on Ice cream machine is also broken 1 week ago:
They don’t pay out unless you call crime stoppers. If they called 911 they don’t pay out.
- Comment on Tokyo government gives workers 4-day workweek to boost fertility, family time 2 weeks ago:
Oh good another Premium Friday
- Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store 2 weeks ago:
The way Coffee Stain explained it is that the exclusivity windfall gave them enough runway to finish the game.
If the system of temporary exclusivity in exchange for upfront development cash continues I think it’s an overall win for the gaming community as games get to come out at leas rushed pace and with potentially less cash generation grabs in the game itself.
- Comment on Why are people impressed with SpaceX? 2 months ago:
no rocket as powerful as this one.
So I’m confused on this because people still seem to be using Starships’s old estimates of 100 tons to LEO orbit, which the SLS can put 145 tons to LEO.
Then 6 months ago Musk got on stage and updated the specs to Say that Starships’s current design can only do 40-50 tons.
This feels awfully familiar for anyone that’s seen early Tesla specs/presentations/promises and I can’t help but wonder as to the validity of everyone saying SpaceX is mostly insulated from Musk’s “influence.”
- Comment on Question about upcoming trends and hardware requirements 2 months ago:
DirectML sucks but ROCm is great, but you need to check if the software you want to use works with ROCM. Also note there’s only like 4 cards that work with ROCm as well.
- Comment on Question about upcoming trends and hardware requirements 2 months ago:
ROCm is comparable but very few applications work out of the box with it.
- Comment on Ubisoft's Board is Launching an Investigation Into The Company Struggles 2 months ago:
It seems like a very polarizing game, you either really enjoy it or not at all.
- Comment on Ubisoft's Board is Launching an Investigation Into The Company Struggles 2 months ago:
I love the division 1 and 2 but the first game had some MAJOR bullet soak issues for the first half-year of the game’s lifetime.
Massive always does good work despite Ubisoft, in my opinion.
- Comment on Pressure washing 2 months ago:
The key is to get one where you can widen the spray and squeegee everything off.
- Comment on What are the scariest games you've played? 2 months ago:
You should play voices of the void then. Game is chock full of random spooks with lots of very quiet and relaxing downtime, so they hit pretty hard when they happen.
- Comment on Bumble 3 months ago:
I think I remember a site like that existing in the 2010s, where you had to apply to join and it only let in equal numbers of genders.
It was the 2010s so the waiting list for dudes joining was way longer than the one for women. It was like trying to get in a dance club.
- Comment on Steam adds new "Trending Free" tab to hide demos from new & trending 4 months ago:
I have a feeling a lot of these demos were just trying to game that very “new and trending” page, and this change will produce fewer demos.
- Comment on In 2019, Microsoft tried a 4-day workweek in Japan. Productivity jumped 40% 4 months ago:
They didn’t really cancel it, it kept going through corona when the entire staff went remote so the conversation stopped cause everyone was kind of working on their own desired time anyway.

Microsoft continues to do full remote and “hybrid” (only coming into the office once or twice a week) work schedules depending on your position and responsibilities.
- Comment on For here am I sitting in my tin can 4 months ago:
Firefly needs to hurry up and make a human-rated capsule instead of cargo farings.
I have high hopes for a company that can set up a rocket almost from scratch in 24 hours.

There’s also a block coding plugin for Godot now too!
github.com/endlessm/godot-block-coding
Perfect tool to get kids into game creation.
- Comment on How did gravity worked on the Death Star? 4 months ago:
Isn’t the emperor’s tower and all the surface guns oriented toward the second option?
Seems like it’s a little of both
- Comment on Not since Apple Vs. Epic... 5 months ago:
Let them Fight
- Comment on I wish I was as bold as these authors. 5 months ago:
Flat epistemological statements like this are why I feel like more STEM people need to take Philosophy.
- Comment on Update on SD3 on Civitai | Civitai 5 months ago:
They should probably do the same with cascade, seeing as that license seems to be more restrictive as well
- Comment on Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone Can’t Let Go Of Stardew Valley 7 months ago:
Seems like the thing I’ve always considered true: you can turn a mediocre game into a masterpiece with the right application of music.
Not that I’m saying Stardew is mediocre, but good music seems to uplift a game more than anything other part.
