“I’m not attracted to feet, which is a relief, because to be attracted to feet is immoral” – presumably the opinion of social conservatives regarding homosexuals instead of feet.
- Comment on What are some good cooperative shooters? Hidden gems? 21 hours ago:
Halo. Not a hidden gem, but locked to xbox for a long time. (At least, co-op was.)
Best way to play is probably local co-op, but I imagine online is good too. Local co-op is only available on console sadly.

I think it’s a good way to remind you right up front when you sign up that this is what you’re signing up for. Honestly if last week I had been asked to choose between a world in which facebook makes its invasiveness painfully clear at signup vs keeps it low-key, I would choose the former.

This is not really the invasion of privacy it seems when you compare it to everything else facebook will do with your information.

For the really powerful ones, but for instance I think spider man is better defined by what he CAN do, which is actually a pretty small list.

Not until you finally get it right, and at that point you look like a total freak to everyone else. But at least you’re satisfied.

Then you’re just a normal alien. The idea behind the kryptonite is that it weighs you down your whole life living on planet krypton – when you finally are free of it, you’re superpowered. Without kryptonite, there’s no superman.

It’s one of those awful apple TV remote controls. When your hand gets the slightest bit sweaty, you seek all over the place with no precision.

But unfortunately it has “Z” pronounced wrong. (zee/zed.) There is no escape.
- Comment on Microsoft renames "Remote Desktop" to "Windows App". Good luck googling for any help or troubleshooting it. 3 days ago:
Yeah, retrieval-augmented generation and AI web-search will still run into some trouble with this. But if it knows about it in its weights, then it will be fine.

- Comment on Speak American 6 days ago:
I don’t like using country flags for languages. For one thing, not every language has a country of its own – there are 700+ languages in use today, but <200 countries. Many languages don’t even have any obvious insignia to use with them.
If you’re making a piece of software and you want it ported to many languages, just use text to represent the language.

I’m guessing you don’t do 10 because you just don’t wear tank-tops in general. But why on earth a bra, especially if you’re ditching the panties? Don’t you find it uncomfortable to decompress wearing one?

Literally anything except 5 10 and 15. Extremely curious to hear from the 5/10/15 crowd.

Well, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, as they say. Literally anything you buy, there could be a shareholder who is evil. But y’gotta vote with your wallet, and so it makes a bigger impact to boycott companies that are directly involved, rather than ambiguous or strenuous connections.

Thanks for having that disgusting username, you are now my first blocked user.

That is absolutely not how LLMs work. “Literally no concept of a joke in their algorithms” is debatably true, but it’s a rather useless remark, because you could equally well say that there is no concept of code in their algorithms, and yet they are able to code. (inb4 somebody comes in and says “not that well!” to which I say: well enough for some uses.)
- Comment on Mario Kart 64 got finally decompiled! 1 week ago:
Fair use means legally using a copyrighted material without requiring permission of the copyright holder. It does not mean you can redistribute in general, though some forms of redistribution are fair use, such as using an excerpt from a book in your essay.
Reverse engineering code is also fair use, but that doesn’t mean it’s fair use to share the code you’ve reversed.
- Comment on Mario Kart 64 got finally decompiled! 1 week ago:
That says reverse engineering is ok – not sharing RE’d code.
