- Comment on If your significant other cheated on you, would you confront or attack the person they cheated with? 5 hours ago:

Random crap from a generative AI, I don’t think you should burn brain cells on that thing.

Scenario #1
Parents: we will buy a new laptop
Me: buy a Mac, it’s easy and you can keep it for years
Parents: we bought the most shitty Acer/Whatever computer ever in a Walmart because the salesman was nice to us, we also bought a subscription to the shittiest antivirus ever, it says it protects our DNA or bodily fluids from the North Korean hacksters, is it good? We also bought an Office subscription even though we use it once a yearScenario #2
Parents: we will buy a new TV
Me: don’t buy a smart TV, don’t buy Samsung, don’t buy anything more than full HD because you’re almost blind and it’s not worth it
Parents: we bought a gigantic 8K Samsung smart TV because the salesman loved us and got us a $10 coupon on that $1000 TVScenario #3
Parents: we will buy a new phone
Me: buy an iPhone, it’s simple
Parents: we bought the shittiest Samsung ever and it comes with an antivirus and a cloud subscription, also why is it broken all the time?And that’s why I don’t give them advice anymore.

- Comment on The Moral Dilemma Of Supporting SNK In 2026 5 weeks ago:
Download any emulator, download ROMs, enjoy. I understand that emulators were difficult to setup in the late 90s/early 2000s, but not anymore.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
The first question does not make sense. For fish and zsh, install WSL.
- Comment on Why would anyone doordash food from a place that already does delivery? 5 weeks ago:
How do you pay? Most people who deliver have an independent status and carry no cash.
- Comment on Why would anyone doordash food from a place that already does delivery? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t condone Doordash but I’ve seen coworkers use an equivalent to Doordash:
- unified and familiar interface
- I can choose my restaurant, it’s not limited to one place
- coupons and stuff, same, unified
- the payment method (debit card in France) is already stored in the application and works out of the box for every place that delivers
- it’s easier if you buy a meal every day for lunch during work, no need to create an account for each restaurant (there are more than a hundred around me)

- Comment on Is it controversial to point out the Nazis were mostly Catholics? 1 month ago:
No one really cares about the religion of nazis. The real controversy was the pope being a friend of the nazis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Pius_XII_and_the_Holocaust
- Comment on Pressure mounts on Kanye West to be pulled from headline role at summer music festival in London 1 month ago:

- Comment on is it normal for parents to act nice one minute and rude the next? 1 month ago:
I’m not into psychology stuff but it is NOT normal.
My father is narcissistic but it’s not one minute or the other. He acts nice in front of other people, and abusive when he is only with me. Like he would say I’m the greatest programmer ever when talking about me, but would tell me that I’m a failure and I don’t know how to use a computer when I visit him and no one else is at home.
Suffice to say that if my mother dies first, I won’t talk to him anymore and he’ll be alone. But he will still complain that I abandoned him because I’m a bad guy.
- Comment on What are the most confusing false friends from your language to another that are spelt exactly the same? 1 month ago:

- Comment on Does the national Do Not Call Registry actually work? (USA) 1 month ago:
In France, the Do Not Call registry will tell every company on the planet that your phone number is valid. Which means “more spam.” Hilarious, and I expect it’s the same in the USA.
