- Comment on Senate passes TikTok ban bill, sending it to Biden, who has already committed to signing it 3 weeks ago:
Nah, this entire thing is about US control. They’re upset that it’s a different government that’s spying on us this time. No sympathy for TikTok but there’s no good way to spin this.
Btw, you know if TikTok sells to a US company, they’ll be just as rancid, right?
- Comment on Windows users don't want copilot on their taskbar 1 month ago:
Eh fair, to me that’s just severely outweighed by the bloatware and needing third party apps to customize the UI how I used to like. It feels uglier and bulkier and like they took away a ton of good functions.
- Comment on Windows users don't want copilot on their taskbar 1 month ago:
Have Windows users ever wanted a single thing they added since XP? It seems like every time I upgrade they add some cluttery nonsense I can’t get rid of. I moved to Windows 10 for software compatibility, and I still hate it.
- Comment on What are some games you find yourself frequently coming back to? 1 month ago:
Paper Mario for the N64 and Super Mario World for the SNES. I think it’s because I found them both at the perfect point in my childhood where they were the first games in their genres I managed to beat.
I had a blast finding every single exit and bonus stage in SMW, and Paper Mario was the first RPG that didn’t make my eyes glaze over (including Super Mario RPG). Plus the characters and aesthetics are still so charming, the whole game gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.

Man, sometimes I forget how awful that site could actually be. I just miss the crafting subreddits.

I actually didn’t know about Stack Overflow. That’s disappointing.
- Comment on House likely to pass a bill that could ban TikTok, sending it to the Senate 2 months ago:
It’s just part of the US government’s constant obsession with controlling the internet. They managed to make it sound legit this time due to anxiety around the CCP, but it’s not going to end at TikTok.

Appreciate this, I thought they were both called “the internet”. I knew we called it the worldwide web when I was a kid, but I thought that was just a phrase that fell out of fashion.
