I’m just this guy, you know. Except on Lemmy.

Yeah but he sold inferior copper

I’ve got a heat-pump water heater that keeps my utility room at root cellar temperatures which is pretty nice

And how some people think he was apprehended in Ohio in 1970

No it’s the Mengele Effect

Pagers operate at a different frequency than phones which has an easier time penetrating thick walls and old buildings.

I find his lack of faith disturbing

Not violent just hungry
What a fine young cannibal

Either I haven’t had enough coffee or this is surprisingly deep.
- Comment on Anon doesn't wash 2 weeks ago:
People of West Indian descent often wash meat like pork and beef with a vinegar solution, but not ground meat
- Comment on Americans Need to Party More 2 weeks ago:
It’s kind of like an Elk’s Lodge. Mainly it’s a bar with cheap drinks and cheap food where everybody has to pass a background check.
They have holiday events, but mainly it’s a place where there’s all sorts of people, a whole bunch of regulars, and where the bartenders know your favorite drink. There’s even a guy named Norm.

Andrew WK, come to us now in our time of need.
(Seriously, though, finding a local social club has done wonders for my social circle.)

The first date I went on after separating from my ex was probably a government agent.

It’s like rain on your wedding day

One of the many things I liked about Hail Mary Project was that the aliens are extremely non-humanoid, but you still develop empathy for them. It’s my favorite Andy Weir book by far.
- Comment on Anon trying understanding women 2 weeks ago:
Saying it’s just “wanting to fuck” is also toxic masculinity. When someone I’m attracted to is friendly with me I don’t imagine us fucking, I imagine cuddling and talking all night and supporting each other. And I’ve seen women have the same reaction to attractive men talking to them.

Define “own”
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 2 weeks ago:
People like this are why I support walkable communities and convenient, free mass transit.
- Comment on If you are a young person you have no idea how bad everyone and everything smelled until at least the 1990s. 2 weeks ago:
Better to have an ashtray than to let someone who needs to light up set the bathroom trash on fire

I still remember when it was okay to smoke inside hospitals. Fun times…
All of this has happened before. All of this will happen again.

I’d warn them about the wraith and tell them of the glory of the P90

This is the greatest Mac OS addition since the The Grouch
- Comment on Hubris 3 weeks ago:
I also make my own cinnamon rolls and it’s way more than a few minutes effort. Mix, rise for 1.5 hours, roll out, roll up, cut them all individually, another hour rise, and then you can bake them.
Granted, I do everything up to the baking and then freeze them, but it’s way more than a few more minutes.
Then again, now that I make my own cinnamon rolls I can’t stand anyone else’s.
(I don’t make biscuits so maybe they’re easier)
- Comment on Why do games like Minecraft require a launcher? 3 weeks ago:
Other answers in thread are good, but I like them because I don’t have to wait for a game to fully load if I misclick
- Comment on Video Games Can’t Afford to Look This Good 3 weeks ago:
I’ve got an old Mac and use a cloud gaming PC to play games. It’s like $50 a month and works great when you’re near the data center.
Plus my laptop doesn’t get really hot while playing games and the battery lasts a lot longer. All while getting 4k 60fps gaming with ray tracing.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 3 weeks ago:
Thanks for bringing this up, because it frustrates me as well. Most of the time I’m watching on a TV, and there’s no way to block YT ads on a TV. The people I share my house with aren’t technical and will watch YouTube even with ads. So to keep them out of my house I pay for YT premium.
Suggesting that people just do something technical and janky to block ads isn’t a solution for me, not because I can’t do it, but because there’s no way my family will do it.
- Comment on I don't have to check the price because I know I can't afford it. 3 weeks ago:
My grocery store has a basket of tiny bits of cheese that are all under $3. I check it every time and sometimes find some real gems like aged parmesan or a bit of raclette. Plus it’s a small amount so you’re guaranteed to use all of it.

Don’t tell me you copied that floppy

Tech geeks have actual autism.
Tech bros microdose so they can pretend they have autism.
