I just think it’s ugly. Like, I’m honestly pretty indifferent towards Taylor Swift. Both about her music, and her as a person. Like, she isn’t great, but there are billionaires that are a lot worse than her. Who probably still live in less ugly mansions.
- Comment on I knew it 3 days ago:
That’s an ugly-ass mansion.
- Comment on WTF is this ad in my recording app 5 days ago:
Why are you using a recording app with ads/tracking when there’s free alternative that don’t do that?
Like, if you really wanna have transcripts, Google’s recording app works even if you deny it network access. Found that put because I was to lazy to look for a proper FOSS solution.

As someone guessed above - Stranded: Alien Dawn
- Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game 1 week ago:
Yup, Stranded: Alien Dawn.

Earlier this year, I got a game I liked on steam. Pretty much 3d Rimworld. After playing for 20 hours over a few weeks, I sporadically started getting errors about me having “no hardware activations” left for the game, and how I should wait 24 hours. I have never installed it on any other machine.
It is so very silly that a pirated copy would be the more seamless experience.

There where points in time where I had a lightscribe disk, and points in time where I had a lightscribe drive. But never both at the same time. I feel like this says something, but I dunno what.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 3 weeks ago:
Hmh. Maybe I passed that wrong. The one I had is also mass market on the sense that they’re in quite a few supermarkets in several regions of one country.
Kerrygold is just ludicrously mass market, being available in a lot of supermarkets in over 100 countries.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 3 weeks ago:
Well, I’ve been vegan for years, but I usually had this stuff, I think.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 3 weeks ago:
Do people really see kerrygold as a premium option? I haven’t bought butter in a long time, but I always saw kerrygold as overpriced mass market shit.
- Comment on Excellent tip 4 weeks ago:
Sure, that’s why I use it. My point was more that improved battery performance, at least to that degree, is a your-specific-usecase thing, not a Graphene thing.
- Comment on Excellent tip 4 weeks ago:
Makes sense, but with that setup, and a different custom rom on a phone with better life would deliver even better results.
I like my pixel, I like Graphene, but I still feel that’s a weak point.
- Comment on Excellent tip 4 weeks ago:
Show me a Pixel with two days of battery life with heavy use. My 8a lasts about a day, sometimes less. Similar reports for a friends 8a and my brother’s 7a.
- Comment on Oops, something went wrong! 2 months ago:
In theory, maybe. In practice, I’ve had a lot of errors in that vein that very much wouldn’t go away, and where made much harder to diagnose by their obtuseness.
Honestly, I even dislike the mindset. Just make a big header with the generic error message and a little one below that gives some details. Having users interested in how your software works is not a bad thing.
- Comment on Homer Simpson irl 2 months ago:
I think the person might not have been qualified to make diagnoses at that point? With any MRT I’ve ever had taken, the people who actually took it told me they weren’t allowed to comment on it in any way, and I had to wait for the doctor to take a look.

I mean, didn’t he do that Carlson interview a few days ago? I wouldn’t put it past Trump to pardon him, as long as he keeps on message and drums up some attention.

In German, they’re Glühwürmchen (“glow worms”).
- Comment on uhh… my ex girlfriend and long-time friend is now cishet, very christian, and makes those “i identify as” jokes regarding trans people. would it end up bad for me if i continued to be her friend? 2 months ago:
That’s bullshit, I’m good friends with several ex-partners. Might not work for some people, but definitely not a general rule.
- Comment on What really separates a PC from a server? Mainly the hardware, but I guess software too. 2 months ago:
I’ve used parts from my old PC for my Homeserver. Among other things, it runs Jellyfin. Most of my library can be directly played by most clients, so I need almost no transcoding. Just serving the media uses tiny amounts of ram and compute, and the only bottleneck I could see is a residential Internet connection (I’ve got symmetrical gigabit, but there’s lots of residential gigabit that limits uploads to like 50mpbs).
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 2 months ago:
Yeah, but that’s why I don’t think fertility is a good measure of age in any way.
I don’t disagree with the numbers, I just don’t think they’re bound to any one aspect of the human body, nor do they need to be.
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 2 months ago:
Not my experience, but that might depend on the people one interacts with. I’d also say that coupling being young to such a gendered parameter is questionable. When does someone who’s biologically male stop being young? What about people who can’t reproduce?
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 2 months ago:
I dunno, to be honest. But for me, reproductive changes are a consequence of age, not the other way around. No single factor feels like it in itself is a sensible definition.
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 2 months ago:
That’s a really weird definition of young.

I might be biased, but I can only reccomend it. Start with the EU country that vibes most with you, can’t go wrong, honestly.
- Comment on They're coming 3 months ago:
I’m from a country where uncut is the norm, to the point where it’s unusual to meet a dude that’s cut, and it’s kinda fascinating to see someone being so into it.
Maybe you should move to Europe.
- Comment on David Bowie has been dead for almost a decade. 3 months ago:
He got punched pretty hard once, if I remember correctly. Went pretty well, got a killer look out of it.
- Comment on im soooo normal 3 months ago:
Huh, most people just tell me it’s relatable, and that they should probably kick it too. Also, Zuck starting to zuck even more openly seems to have helped with the ones who weren’t quite convinced.
- Comment on crying and shaking 3 months ago:
I dunno. I’m from a country where it isn’t common practice, so it doesn’t really affect me, and I still find it’s fucking weird, and see why people would wanna stop it.
Like, sure, there’s much, much greater injustices in the world, but that’s true for lot’s of injustices, and dealing with them sequentially sorted by impact isn’t going to work very well.

The point is that it’s a cool, complicated little machine. But you can get that for a lot less than 200k.

Better hope you have good insurance, otherwise you’re gonna have to pay for it being towed out of the environment yourself.
