Steady on with that kind of comment, please. They might be sequoia fuckers.

Yeah, especially printers. Fuck printers.
- Comment on "You should probably just throw it away" 1 week ago:
“Trade it in or recycle it” basically means “your best bet to solve this problem is to pass it on to someone else, who will pass it on to someone else, and so on until it arrives at landfill”.

Hotdogs also come in 12s. In jars of 12.
- Comment on TIL there's appliances to help with waffle stomping, Thanks Google 3 weeks ago:
They should make a device that removes the need for waffle stomping. Like, maybe a separate fixture without a grille and with an aperture large enough to allow the solid loaf to pass straight through. Maybe integrate some kind of support to allow the user to comfortably assume and hold a squatting position. Oh, and a cleaning feature to wash the contents away.

- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 2 months ago:
Yeah, I can only tut and shake my head when non-Brits complain about stepping on Lego.
- Comment on Why do so many UK electrical sockets have an on/off switch next to them? 2 months ago:
The specific-plugs-for-lamps think is very rare these days. The reason for it is that it’s not uncommon for our plugs to be on a high amperage circuit - sometimes 30A, occasionally higher - that can’t be safely controlled with a light switch or similar, so the lamp-only circuit will be capped at, say, 3A with unusual plugs to avoid someone trying to connect a tumble dryer.

That guy was, I think, intended as a stand-in for real-life eugenicist and all-round villain Henry Laughlin. Killing him in-game was quite the treat.

If Hollywood has taught me one thing, it’s that the hero is handsome and photogenic and the villain is a ugly and greasy…

- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 3 months ago:
An answer to a different question, but if he gets caught I hope that the media gives him the same treatment as school shooters; plastering his image everywhere, distributing his manifesto and transforming him into an antihero.

- Comment on Guardian will no longer post on Elon Musk’s X from its official accounts 4 months ago:
Good guy The Guardian. For my fellow Brits, here is your regular reminder that there are only two major independent news outlets in the UK: The Guardian and the BBC.
- Comment on Smoking ban introduced to protect children and most vulnerable 4 months ago:
Sounds good. Tell you what, why don’t you write a complete list of every problem that needs sorting, objectively ranked in order of importance, and we can make sure no-one addresses problem #2 until problem #1 is fixed.
Perfect is the enemy of good.
