• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's it going to take to truly stop the US?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The US has directly captured or supported the overthrow of multiple heads of state. Nobody has ever done anything and they won’t now.

  Too many Americans are actually supportive of this so there won’t be any major domestic repercussions. Maybe some hearings in Congress.

  America is not going to fix itself. The corruption is built in. For the last 50 years (roughly), the system has been changed to make the people dumb and complacent; to make the President a puppet king who answers to the wealthy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After getting Silent Hill 'back on track,' Konami wants to make it an annual franchise⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Line must go up! Until the brain-dead who just buy annual releases without thought begin to pay attention, studios will continue to do this.

  I’m still in shock that EA is not going to do an F1 26. They said they want to do better with the next one, so they’re skipping a year.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨64$ the ticket, 1040$ surcharge.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not just Vegas. It’s also very popular in short-term rentals (like AirBnB) and other gig enterprises.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lol, lmao even.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dartmouth has a PhD in Dumbassery?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I totally agree⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was totally hoping it was going to be Barney. Or Robin.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel to compete at Eurovision Song Contest in 2026, prompting several nations to withdraw⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s easy: money and racism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There was one in the version they sent to Steam. That’s what started all this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨il boohoo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I have an older 911 and that is just fun to drive. It’s just a fancy go-kart. My little Grom is also a blast to ride.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of November 16th⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Little Rocket Lab. Very cute and cozy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously, it’s kill all three. Right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On Prince Andrews Road, a Frustrating Effort to Get a New Address⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Princess Diana Boulevard?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Square Enix announces more layoffs as part of US and Europe restructuring [VGC]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow. And just yesterday, there were a slew of articles about Squenix embracing AI to do Quality checks and other tasks.

  I’m sure this is just a coincidence. /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dallas Cowboys player Marshawn Kneeland dies at 24⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was going to make a joke here but, damn, this is way too tragic.

  The article didn’t mention if Kneeland had a history of depression. If he didn’t, they need to do an autopsy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | Official Trailer | Paramount+ (NYCC 2025)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Felt a little like Hogwarts in Space.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where do you guys start in a Lower Decks rewatch?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I start at the beginning.

  For me, even the worst of S1 is still more entertaining than a lot of what’s out there to stream, in general.

  It could also be that I have some sort of unhealthy obsession with Tendi.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown looks like a field day for micro managers in its first gameplay trailer⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  TL;DR: The headline on the post is pretty much the whole article.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, That Great-Looking 'Star Trek: Voyager' Game Will Let You Spare Tuvix⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Promote him to “meat torpedo.” So many posthumous commendations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2025 Ig Physics Nobel Prize goes to perfect pasta sauce⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  While I was there, I also noticed that the author has another book, Lateral Cooking, that I was able to borrow, along with the 2023 2nd edition of Flavor Thesaurus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Needs to Imagine More for Its Female Characters⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Your comment about WoT - if they just talked to each other - resonated with me. I gave up reading the series halfway through because of that. If they just had Post-it notes, that would have made a difference.

  As a fellow enjoyer of some flawed things, I haven’t gotten too far into this season. I’m a quarter of the way through the “holodeck” episode. I’m just not caring about the characters’ lives at this point.

  I want to but I can’t.

  I also find it odd that, apparently, the Federation is incapable of diagnosing and treating PTSD or mental illness in general. They have replicators and matter transportation but not therapy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Trek: Khan Audio Series Releases Official Trailer, Poster, Premiere Date, and Additional Voice Casting⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We need one for Star Base 80.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tough new driving rules could land Brits with a ban for ‘minor’ mistakes⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I saw one of my coworkers looking just like this while pulling out of work today.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I played Lovecraftian doctor simulator Do No Harm, and let me tell you, my brother in Cthulhu, I did some serious harm⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lovecraftian doctor simulator? I guess I’ll read the article. My interest is piqued.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are drink coasters for people who frequently spill their drink or have trouble drinking without dribbling down the cup?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a lot. You could try planing the edges to make it look even, but that would also mean having to stain/treat the wood after. Trying to get it to match would be a challenge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: Get Your Parents Off the Meta AI App Right Now-This is bad, folks. Very bad.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been known for years that Meta/Facebook is only concerned about gathering personal information and nothing else.

  Unfortunately, many people just don’t care. And they won’t until it hurts them. Even then they might buy into whatever BS Meta pushes to avoid responsibility.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if the Earth was sucked into a black hole?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t have to set my alarm for work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Playlists Are Advertising "No AI" as Entire Site Gets Choked by AI Slop⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I spend more time blocking channels and clicking “not interested” than I do watching videos.

  So many AI thumbnails and low effort clickbaity titles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony will be releasing "MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL" on 4K Ultra HD on August 26.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t bought a movie on any physical media since 2016.

  This may be the first of a new collection.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Washington Post is planning to let amateur writers submit columns — with the help of AI⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So, WaPo is basically now Substack or Medium but worse?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What is his native language?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The sun is killing off SpaceX's Starlink satellites⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The article points out that Starlink debris has been found on the ground in Canada.

  It’s only one in roughly 3000, that we know of. The more of them up there, though, the more will end up hitting the ground.
