- Comment on How differently would have information technology developed if most of the world were under authoritarian regimes instead of liberal democracies? Would encryption have been more restricted? 1 day ago:
The current “liberal” Australian government are doing their best to turn the internet into a government controlled propaganda machine. Most “liberal” governments around the world are the ones starting to become authoritarian, implementing censorship of the internet and speech, jail time for internet posts, endless tracking of everything you do online, etc.
- Comment on [US Politics] How much can Mamdani even do as Mayor? Couldn't the NYC City Coucil just block every progressive thing he tries to do? 1 day ago:
A neckbeard “fact checking” me and saying “no you’re wrong, 2+2 = 5!” and then patting himself on his back and saying how he “wiped the floor with me” is nothing to worry about. I will enjoy knowing that you’re fuming behind your keyboard every time I post and don’t see your reply :)

Can you show me the communist countries, of any approach, where they are flourishing with no poor people, everyone is financially well off, wealth is equally distributed, and there is no ruling class and no impoverished underclass?
effectively regressing right back to authoritarianism
Because that’s what communism always becomes.

Wipe the floor with me again? I don’t even know who you are, and you’ve done nothing but make yourself look like a fool, and admit you didn’t even look at the links provided.
Won’t be making the mistake of replying to you again. See ya kid.

Oh so you’re not even watching the videos while replying half a dozen times about the content of them. Explains a lot.
See ya.
- Comment on Does vibe coding sort of work at all? 2 days ago:
No, making an app is not just something you can decide you want to do and do it without learning to code.

You are literally watching videos of the guy saying exactly what I told you he said, and saying he didn’t say it lol

Just the general racist “take all the white mans stuff and give it to minorities”, “seize the means of production” socialist/communist garbage.

I can’t decide if I want him to enact all his communist/socialist policies and give American’s a first hand experience of why Communism is terrible, or if I want common sense to prevail and his communist/socialist policies are stopped before he can destroy NYC.
- Comment on Windows 12 release is pushed back at least another year as Microsoft announces Windows 11 version 25H2 2 days ago:
Why not just turn on auto-hide of the task bar? Not the perfect fix, obviously, and they absolutely should bring back being able to move it to the side, but it at least solves the “taking up valuable space” problem.
- Comment on Windows 12 release is pushed back at least another year as Microsoft announces Windows 11 version 25H2 3 days ago:
What about windows 11 doesn’t work?
- Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be? 4 days ago:
Just go sign up for any of the activist organisations that advertise it:
torontosun.com/…/kinsella-protesters-paid-to-take…
Did you really think that the protests that are 90% pensioners holding all the same print signs and chanting the same thing, often reading from their printouts they were given, were organic?
- Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be? 4 days ago:
The things people are protesting against now are pathetically trivial compared to the things those people protested, that’s why.
They’re more just a bunch of people don’t like something, or are against something that they think is happening when it actually isn’t (or is at least a 50/50 issue).
There’s also the fact that most of the protesters these days are just virtue signallers, or are rent-a-protest paid protesters who couldn’t care less.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 4 days ago:
The difference isn’t significant in this situation. You’re acting like HDDs are floppy disks lol. Their random IO is not “pretty terrible”.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 4 days ago:
Again - there’s no significant real world difference between an SSD and a HDD in the scenario I’m describing. Neither drive types are the limiting factor in speed of the operation.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 4 days ago:
Still no sources. Interesting.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 4 days ago:
I love the “you’re wrong and if you disagree provide sources” while not providing any sources yourself lol. Amazing.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 4 days ago:
Not really in terms of reading a massive amount of tiny files.
- Comment on Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions? 5 days ago:
For one, chances are your HDD size was significantly smaller than your current one.
- Comment on If you have cut off mainstream music streaming, how do you discover new music or artists and songs like what you're listening frequently? 5 days ago:
Triple J is great if all you want to hear is the newest terrible pretentious Australian indie band, but terrible for anything else.

There’s a pretty big difference between having a friend over for meals and weekends and hanging out, and that friend railing your wife.
You’ve spoken to your wife and she’s open to it? Red flag. Giant red flag. This wouldn’t end well for you.
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 1 week ago:
Six of Trump’s cabinet secretaries authored or contributed to Project 2025.
That doesn’t mean that Project 2025 is being followed. It’s not. It’s not Trumps plan.
Your claim wasn’t that those 6 people contributed to Project 2025, it’s that Project 2025 was this governments plan.
- Comment on If one were so inclined, could you take your plot of land, parcel it up into 1-meter-squared (or smaller) sections, and sell each of those sections to different people/companies? 1 week ago:
That’s basically subdividing, and no you can’t just do that to your hearts content. You need to get council etc sign off, new plots drawn up, etc.
- Comment on If you were (falsely) accused of murder, but you have records of your phone at home with youtube videos being played, can you submit those records as a sort of Alibi to exonerate you? 1 week ago:
Not unless you can prove that it was you that was watching those videos, no.
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 1 week ago:
You didn’t prove anything lol. You linked to a far-left biased site.
- Comment on User says access to ’30 years of photos and work’ in OneDrive denied by Microsoft, can't get a response after filing form 18 times — 'Microsoft suspended my account without warning, reason, or any leg 1 week ago:
It definitely can be. This person didn’t have the data anywhere else, so they didn’t have a backup. I use cloud storage as one of my backups.

A liar accusing someone else of being a liar, amazing.
