• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨7 for me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  In the Winter, 1, plus heavy socks and sometimes with a sweatshirt. I keep the thermostat set at 50F at night, in the Winter.

  In the Spring and Fall, 3, sometimes with socks.

  In the Summer, 18 or 20, never with socks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨who are you?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Many years ago (I was there) expiration dates were useful and only on products that would actually expire–mostly just milk, cheese, and meat.

  Then, I think it was Budweiser came up with the “born on date” marketing campaign for beer. Since then, on anything that doesn’t actually expire, like beer, it’s been used to prompt people to throw away perfectly good food, so they’ll hopefully buy more “fresh” food.

  It’s been going on for so many years, we now have at least two generations who have been duped into believing them.

  I have almost 6500 hours in FO4, I played today.

  I have maybe 300 hours in Starfield, can’t be arsed to look. Haven’t touched it in at least a year.

  Bethesda knows how to make great games, but they chose not to. I don’t know why.

  That’s my take.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla ‘Robotaxi’ trademark refused for being too generic⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Will the things use LIDAR? Tesla is so far behind on self-driving tech in their cars, I think they need to finally admit their cheap camera-only method doesn’t work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The clueless people are out there among us⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They were right.

  It does sound really stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We pink inside too :(⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  partially aquatic.

  So, like, a mermaid?

  Suck it Bezos.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is this for? (Wrong answers only)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s for washing hair. I’ve seen these before.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man, I hate it when my cat steals my penis!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Penis > fish.

  I agree, but I might be biased.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose a number, 1-5!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Six.

  Look at this fork. LOOK AT IT. Now, calm down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose a number, 1-5!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Apostrophe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Never use Perplexity, got it.

  I’m old, I don’t browse the web on my phone, anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ads after you buy a ladder: “Yes, you’ve had one ladder, but what about a second ladder?”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pronunciation is important⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At least you didn’t pronounce it “gif”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Statistically, he’ll die of poor health in the next four years. He’s very unhealthy, and very old. Medicine can only do so much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is unfair!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh. I’m making a scene. A scene covered in gravy, and a side of soft serve ice cream and sprinkles. Lots of sprinkles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I jumped ship to Linux Mint almost a year ago. No Microsoft products live here anymore. No regrets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is worried about men⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My kid is almost 27, and he hasn’t been on a date since he was six. The little girl down the street, with very strange parents, asked him over for a play date.

  (No, I don’t say anything to him about it. It’s none of my business.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is worried about men⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, they were laughed at. Then what? Did the guy blow it off and try with someone else, or never try again? It’s not how many times you get knocked down…

  AH! Thank you.

  I think it’s genetic for all mammals to find all baby mammals cute. Adults, IDK.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The experiment requires that you continue⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Which is the opposite of what they should have been doing. The shock would actually re-enforce a memory. So, they should have been shocking correct answers. Because, when we do something and then get hurt, we remember the thing that hurt us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What TV cancellation are you most upset by?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I liked Danny Devito’s Little Demon, but it only got one season. :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What TV cancellation are you most upset by?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And, from that same era, Dead Like Me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What TV cancellation are you most upset by?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you. It’s been sitting lonely in my Jellyfin for a long time waiting to hear this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how is it to work everyday but Wednesdays and Thursdays?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Split days off sucks, from personal experience, don’t do that. Two days together off in the middle of the week is good if you don’t care about a social life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bernard⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m gonna miss Danny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you think that you are always right remember you could actually be stupid and not know it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you know how long it took me to figure out I’m stupid? What am I, stupid?

  Oh, wait…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you think that you are always right remember you could actually be stupid and not know it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, this hurt. So, there’s that.
