I actually never understood how some guys have apparently a hard time simply aiming. I never had a problem with that in my life myself.
- Comment on You must have an internet connected smartphone to eat 4 days ago:
Well for starters it’s probably an embedded browser made to look like an app so there you go, 100mb for that. The google / apple libraries, 20mb, telemetry, 50mb…
- Comment on You must have an internet connected smartphone to eat 4 days ago:
Actually it gives no convenience, only incovenience. When I lived there for 2 years about 20 years ago and everything was cash and you could at any moment just hail a taxi, a minibus, one these bycicle guys, tell where you want to go, give cash, it was very convenient.
- Comment on What games did you sleep on for too long? 3 weeks ago:
I have fell asleep playing Civilization a few times :) Just…one…more…turn.
- Comment on US Government Official refuses to answer basic question 5 weeks ago:
Love the questioning. I was hoping for a dismissive “ok we’ll call you back”.

Exactly
- Comment on Xbox Plans Significant Layoffs as It Transforms Under New CEO 2 months ago:
I mean in my layoffs they laid off our entire team once the AI was ready and they hired a few people with the same job title in india to check the output. These are not incompatible.
- Comment on I found the Picasso gender bathroom 2 months ago:
Also he was blind in one eye and would maybe need half a mirror? :)
- Comment on Splinter Cell designer says “one of the difficulties with modern stealth games” is realistic lighting, as environments are now so much “harder to read” 2 months ago:
Right? I play games to escape reality anyway
- Comment on What Happened When the Pope Had to Call Customer Service 2 months ago:
No you “think about”. He opened the account didn’t he. So he came in person, presented id and everything, and defined the security questions that he then correctly answered. He passed authentication and then they just… didn’t believe it. It’s a systemic failure. I’ve had a specific bank account in the old country for 17 years, the last 15 spent outside of said country. I went there exactly once - to open the account. Since then I have used that account regularly including to buy, and later sell, an apartment and still didn’t have to go there.
- Comment on What Happened When the Pope Had to Call Customer Service 2 months ago:
Lol it’s funny the bank didn’t have a little note in their system saying that particular customer is actually the pope. They don’t have anything to flag VIPs?
- Comment on Do I belong in tech anymore? - On quitting, the spread of AI, and the loss of an ideal. 3 months ago:
Same. Been looking close to 9 months after being laid off but it’s only to pay the bills, I know I won’t enjoy what I find, if anything. That ship sailed 10 years ago.
- Comment on You know how some medications numbs your emotions... so what happens if you're on those medications and you receive news of a close family member dying, do you like... not have any emotions over it? 3 months ago:
In the right dosage the idea is to keep you from going into overdrive from the news, in my experience taking them. It’s to lower your baseline, not killll it all. It’s not a lobotomy.
- Comment on Retired Coast Guard officer with decades of public health experience is Trump’s pick to lead CDC 3 months ago:
Sounds like a good pick? What’s the catch?
- Comment on The way this egg peels in infuriating 4 months ago:
You’re supposed to break the little skin between the shell and the white and pull on that. You dug past it.
- Comment on The Expanse: Osiris Reborn | Official Gameplay Trailer 4 months ago:
I should have wrote “if it’s close to the original story”, not something like I am Legend that completely ignored the reason for the story being called that.
- Comment on The Expanse: Osiris Reborn | Official Gameplay Trailer 4 months ago:
Me too if it’s based on the books/show
- Comment on I almost got to try my new quick clamp 4 months ago:
Just remove the plastic thingy that if you’re anything like me you’re gonna lose anyway?
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
Common sense would dictate that if if presented with a 30 pages contract in small letters in legalese, your usual folk will not get it. I think that’s a common defense.
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
Uh. Good to know.
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
Beats me
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
yup
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
Nothing so far, I sent the email in the screenshot. If they reply anything other than my membership is cancelled, I’ll require them again to cancel my membership and point to the fact that I requested the cancellation in writing 3 times and if they charge me one more time i’ll tell my lawyer to take them to small courts (I don’t have one but who cares).
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
That’s good advice, I’ll do that for my next gym membership. Tx.
- Comment on Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead 4 months ago:
I’ll cancel my credit card and get a new one if that’s what it takes for them to stop charging me.
