- Comment on Why democrats under Biden administration didn't release Epstein files? 9 hours ago:
I agree. But that whole honor system and gentleman’s agreements went right out the window in 2016. They had 4 years to see that coming and really didn’t do much to stop it; not even a slick behind the scenes move. Just sat there and let it happen. Had an ace in their sleeve and decided to keep it in a locked up safe for the Donvict to crack right open.
- Comment on Why democrats under Biden administration didn't release Epstein files? 10 hours ago:
Because “High Road” and “Moral Victories” were their focus and always pretend to act surprised when the goal posts are moved by the republicans. At least that’s one reason.

You know what’s also shitty about recycling? The companies that pick that bin in some areas throw it in another bin which gets shipped an “out of country” recycling company to make it someone else’s problem. In the shipping process, that plastic falls off into the ocean making a worse problem now than just throwing it into regular waste management. Also, the process to recycle is more toxic than just throwing it away because the companies use really old processes; like paper for example. I gave up recycling except for metals.

This strategy is called putting all your eggs into the AI basket and then panic when the basket starts rip. So you patch it up with Xbox money because everyone says that basket will be awesome one day. This strategy only works when you have successful developers to sacrifice.
- Comment on Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier says criminal “geoengineering and weather modification activities" could have played a role in recent Texas floods 3 days ago:
Are there any major petrochem plants in Florida? Because their dumping of chemicals in the air when they burn off product does create acid rain which seems to qualify as a third degree felony according to their own dumbass definition. Or what about when plants explode because of shitty safety oversight? Those chemicals are definitely making the environment inhabitable and definitely modify the “intensity of sunlight” from the billow smoke until it clears up. Did republicans inadvertently make a green policy?? I’m sure when they get sued they will immediately add, a “except for these guys” amendment.
- Comment on Gen Z's 'overemployed' solution for a broken economy: 5 jobs and $3K per day. It's totally legal 3 days ago:
I swear, lack of common sense and awareness really hit Gen Z hard. Here’s why this is stupid and summing up the article. You’re letting society know you are ok with filling your day with tasks for wages that cannot sustain a living. 2. If you sign an non-compete or NDA and thinking you’re clever because nobody will find out, you will have 0 jobs when they do and probably out of that field for a solid 1 year minimum. Nobody will hire you which is also not illegal. How do you fix this? Stop accepting shit jobs for minimum wage or unionize to where it doesn’t get over taken by a nefarious party persuading an entire generation multiple jobs instead of one solid paying job is ok. This is on the same level where Gen Z employees say it’s ok to live out of a uhaul. God damn disappointment. No, Gen Z’rs don’t get to blame on Millenials, Gen-X, and Boomers. Lead to a change. Dammit I am ranting again.

Can you play the sound of broken dreams and incompetent IT manager promises? I kind of want Doomguy’s boss music when he enters a stage, but just the complete opposite of ass kicking; more like getting my ass kicked.
- Comment on US | Two guys hated using Comcast, so they built their own fiber ISP 6 days ago:
Verizon or another telecom will buy them out and then sell it to AT&T or cut a deal with Comcast when they’re done fucking it up. I’m glad they accomplished this, and I hope they prosper but I’m really pessimistic about telecom companies and their out of control government supported monopolies.
- Comment on Force is the last refuge of the incompetent 6 days ago:
Took me a moment too. “Return to office”. Basically CEO’s mad they invested a ton of money into an expensive empty building despite remote work proven to increase productivity and moral.
- Comment on AI is eating up Pennsylvania's power, governor threatens to pull state from the grid — new plants aren't being built fast enough to keep up with demand 1 week ago:
Imagine being able to use all that power for literally anything else like … oh I don’t know … manufacturing anything. You know, create jobs, jump start the economy. Oh who am I kidding with all these pipe dreams that make sense.
- Comment on Missouri governor repeals paid sick leave law approved last year by voters 1 week ago:
Hmm, seem to be a lot of governor’s wanting to be kings in their little empires now. Isn’t this grounds for a recall?
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 1 week ago:
My last EA game was Battlefield 3 and I have never purchased an EA game since. Has that stopped EA? No. Why? People will buy it anyway because once their friends buy it, they have to buy it too. Companies all know gamer heard mentality. Your best bet is to slap that digital copy out of your friends’ hands right onto the floor. I don’t know how you do that, but that would be a nice thing to have.

Then after space it’s the college years followed by Dinosaurnado. Although, a tornado composed of dinosaurs sounds awesome.
- Comment on Anon describes experience 2 weeks ago:
Flashbacks to shitty math teachers. It was either this or “WHY DON’T YOU KNOW THIS YET!?” I quit participating and made a C for the rest of my academic career including college. I also got “I don’t how you got this answer, but it’s the right answer.” . Hell I don’t even know how I got that right answer but I refused to ask questions.
- Comment on Grok got a Nazi patch 2 weeks ago:
Even if you slap them with the actual, documented footage taken by the US military video, photos, and paper record of these camps with the EXPLICIT INTENTION to make sure people don’t say “they made all that up” they will still say, “They made all that up.” If you keep going to Twatter for information, you’re basically a idiot at this point and deserve what’s coming for being so misinformed. That goes the same if you use Grok for anything. Let elon run all that into the ground and let it die already. My point is, bad press is good press.
- Comment on Viewers like you 2 weeks ago:
The fact that somehow Big Bird and friends were a threat of any sort to society should tell you what kind of asshole they chose to be. Social media platforms like twatter and meta justify in their minds their assholery. Sesame Street didn’t stand a chance against the onslaught of digital dipshit soapboxes.
- Comment on Thanks to the "you need to buy a new PC for running W11" bullshit, scammers are selling ewaste at full price to inexperienced people 2 weeks ago:
Thrift stores and pawn shops have some great deals on PC’s that will run Linux just fine if you’re concerned about Amazon prices and e-waste. If you have a local radio-shack-like mom and pop shop, those are treasure hunts and you’re guaranteed to find gold. Encourage folks to go local.

Lay in bed for a moment and listen to the tunes on my sweet Panasonic clock radio alarm before slapping the snooze button. Then suddenly wake up to realize I have a clock radio alarm again.

Good one. Not that I can do any better, but would it make more sense to put the statue of liberty there to better reflect the original inspiration?
- Comment on Switch 2 Breaks Records By Selling Over 3.5 Million Units In Four Days 5 weeks ago:
So despite all of the bitching and moaning about all of the “game breaking” features, the shitty little camera, the lack of original games and the price they still bought it. This is why companies keep putting out crap.
- Comment on Looking for the perfect 5 year anniversary gift? 1 month ago:
I forgot the term for this but this is basically the AI blue screening when it keeps repeating the same answer because it can no longer predict the next word from the model it is using. I may have over simplified it. Entertaining nonetheless.
