- Comment on Game prices should have increased with every new generation, former PlayStation US boss says 2 days ago:
He’s not wrong since games pricing hasn’t kept up with inflation. If it had we’d be buying $120 games. The problem is wages also haven’t kept up with inflation either. If gaming companies had increased the prices they’d have fucked themselves.

I used to live in south korea. The first time I saw a squat toilet it blew my mind. That might be the nicest squat toilet i've seen though.

- Comment on Trump Administration Begins to Strip Federal Workers of Union Protections 1 week ago:
The AFGE covers every sector of government doesn't it? If every local union walks out there isn't much that can get done. I doubt they can fire everyone. That's the beauty of collective bargaining. It's why the trash workers stop working if the postal workers need better working conditions in other countries.
- Comment on Trump Administration Begins to Strip Federal Workers of Union Protections 1 week ago:
Maybe a stupid question but what's to stop the union(s) from striking to prevent this from happening? Even if it's a wildcat strike I bet if enough services shut down people will complain and get the administration to stop doing this. Isn't that the whole point of collective bargaining? If someone threatens your group you take collective action to stop the threat.
- Comment on Skwerl (aka "How English sounds to non-English speakers") 1 week ago:
It's really weird when you learn a second language and listen to native speakers and at first it sounds like this and then after a while of learning it somehow becomes proper words. Blew my damn mind.

That's not an Oxford comma. Oxford commas (also known as serial commas) are for lists that contain more than three terms.

- Comment on TIL that Eurasian brown bear (Ursus arctos arctos) is the bearest of all bears – "ursus" means bear, and "arctos" also means bear, so the scientific name translates to "Bear bear bear" 2 weeks ago:
I prefer Plains bison for a crazy tautonym. Its genus, species, and subspecies are all the same word.
