- Comment on Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way 12 hours ago:
I kinda think a phone is the one thing that should come with cables. For most people, it is their only device. Nothing else should come with cables.
- Comment on Motion sensors in high-performance mice can be used as a microphone to spy on users, thanks to AI — Mic-E-Mouse technique harnesses mouse sensors, converts acoustic vibrations into speech 2 days ago:
Just use a mouse pad.
- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 6 days ago:
I used to get something like all the time, even when I already paid for Game Pass.
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 1 week ago:
I understand, but I do want to support devs, especially indie devs, when u can. That’s why I have no qualms about canceling an expensive service and putting that money directly in their hands when it’s possible
- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 1 week ago:
I canceled. I don’t want the features they added. I don’t even use all the features they charge me for now. I just want to be able to try out so new games every so often. I’ll take the $30 I save and buy those same games, probably with some money leftover
- Comment on EA CEO says company values will 'remain unchanged' under the new ownership of Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner's investment firm 1 week ago:
So EA had poor values before and will continue to have poor values in the future. Got it.
- Comment on oh cool 1 week ago:
Do give it a watch but don’t rush. They cancelled the show before ending it so it’s very unsatisfying.
- Comment on oh cool 1 week ago:
It’s called Raised By Wolves. It was on HBO Max before Zaslov took over. He scrapped it completely and pulled it off the platform. I think it’s on one of those free ad-supported channels now.
The show is produced by Ridley Scott and his production company Scott Free Productions .
It’s quite hard to describe. At its core, it’s a sci-fi series focused on a couple on androids who are sent to raise human kids on another planet when Earth is destroyed by a religious war.
Beyond that, it’s like someone took LSD before writing the weirdest sci-fi shit they could think of. I mean like:
Tap for spoiler
androids giving birth to flying snakes, acid aliens storing babies in their chest cavity, and people turning into trees
I don’t even know how to describe it without spoilers because it’s so wild.
- Comment on oh cool 2 weeks ago:
No. The show is cancelled before they wrap up anything.
Personally, I’d still watch it anyway because the show is so goddamn weird you can’t find anything like it anywhere else.
For anyone reading who hasn’t seen it, I would describe it as the most metal (🤘) show I’ve ever seen.
- Comment on oh cool 2 weeks ago:
I’m still upset that this was canceled.

Thank you to the one person who understood my comment.

Do you? 😘
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
Yeah. I can see it wasn’t clear and then I started trolling people who yelled at me which didn’t help my case.
I should have been more clear, that I was trying to call out the hypocrisy of Nintendo’s lawsuit with Palworld (Pokémon with guns) when their own game could be considered just as immoral by some.
I’m annoyed at companies that would rather sue than compete. Palworld is a different game with different ideas.
It’s on me for not being clear!

Bro thinks I don’t play Pokémon.
Y’all are so angry.
Weedle is my favorite of the Kanto region. I also like Dwebble and Blitzle from Unova region.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
People hate the truth.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
Yeah I wasn’t being serious but based on the downvotes I don’t think Lemmy got that.
My intent was actually to fuck over Nintendo with a patent about making your pets fight each other the way they keep gobbling up patents for shit that already exists.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
I’m actually a big supporter of giving homeless people help to care for their pets. A pets love is unconditional and everyone deserves that feeling.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
You’re not wrong.
But something just feels more wrong about Dog Fighting Simulator 2025 to me.
- Comment on Amid Palworld Lawsuit, Nintendo Patents a System for Summoning a Character 4 weeks ago:
Does anyone have a patent on making animals fight each other?
How is Pokémon still a thing anyway? Imaginary dogfighting is still fucked up.
- Comment on Let's hear it, little lemmings. 1 month ago:
Yeah I was just reading a book that mentioned something Feynman said and it’s something I feel is true for me as well.
Don’t remember word for word but it was something like “Any subject is interesting if you look deep enough.”
I feel like Feynman and I could have a riveting conversation about knitting for 3 hours even though neither of us are passionate about it.
Those are the people I want to talk to.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 month ago:
Oh I wasn’t aware. Each time I try to open a game before my Xbox connects to the internet, I get an error.
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 month ago:
Fuck that noise.
What happens if the car goes out of range from the internet? Does the car just lose power the same way I can’t play Gamepass games offline?
I already bought the car with the hardware in it. I will do what I want with it.
My next car will be a 1995 Honda. I’m so tired of being tracked all the time.

I don’t believe this story for one second.
Also that picture is designed to get a reaction. All that blood is from his nose. Not like they cut him up.
He was as probably talking shit and a child punched him.
- Comment on HELP HIM. 1 month ago:
For those who don’t know, this is how some labs use rats and mice when the are uncooperative. I don’t think the intent is to hurt the mouse, just to contain it briefly.
Not saying it’s okay or not okay. Just saying why it’s like this.
- Comment on Periodic reminder to get your library cards and fill out museum surveys. 2 months ago:
To add to this:
Mid-Continent Library in the Kansas City Metro has the biggest selection that I’ve seen in this area. Idk about Wichita or St Louis.
You can sign up for the KC Library, Johnson County Library, and Mid-Continent Library card online if you live in an area it covers.
You can get a Johnson County Library card if you don’t live in that area, but you have to go in person to sign up.
There are also quite a few libraries around the US that will let you sign up regardless of where you live if you make a donation.

I collect library cards like other people collect Pokémon cards. The more I get, the more audiobooks are available to me through apps like Libby.

- Comment on Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed 2 months ago:
Yeah I don’t get it here. I kinda get them not wanting to deal with porn when you can’t verify consent and age of the performers, but the games don’t make sense because there aren’t live performers to worry about.
Mostly that stuff annoys me on Steam because it’s always at the top when I’m sorting by trending/popular, but I don’t think it needs to be removed either.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
The real answer is that it depends on your age. Probably also race and gender. People will react differently to each.
An older adult ready for retirement? Delightful!
A kid trying to be different and impress girls! Cringey.
