- Comment on Am I weird for avoiding flying on prop planes, and only fly on jets? 1 day ago:
Have you been weezin’ da juice?
- Comment on Can deliberate noise harassment still be a crime if it's done every day from 7:30 AM till 10:30-11:30 PM? 1 day ago:
I’m an American so I don’t understand why you haven’t just put a couple 30 round mags through the wall with your AR-15?
- Comment on Am I weird for avoiding flying on prop planes, and only fly on jets? 1 day ago:
Why do you avoid them?
- Comment on These Have Been Found All Across Ancient Rome (Nobody Knows Why) 1 day ago:
Patently
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 1 day ago:
I don’t use them. Or screen protectors . I take good care of my devices, and my phone gets its own pocket always, so no scratches. I’ve only broken 1 phone in my life and it was only the back glass on an iPhone 4, which slipped off my motorcycle seat because that fucking phone was frictionless.
- Comment on Can't fathom it 3 days ago:
I don’t get hungry often, at least not the way I think normal people do. I usually go from ‘fine’ to ‘more than mildly queasy’ in a couple minutes, then I have to rush to find something to throw in my stomach. It’s like flipping a light switch. This usually only happens when I have some project I’m focusing on.

Yes it’s fucking sad I even had to put that disclaimer in there, because it’s not unthinkable anymore.
- Comment on The Horrifying Evolution of Air Travel (Standing only airplane tickets) 13:30 4 days ago:
Won’t happen unless the FAA itself gets dismantled. The list of common aviation events that would lead to significant injury in that scenario precludes it in any sane scenario. Clear air turbulence alone makes it untenable.

Pretty good opinion, NGL.

A game long enough that you die trying to finish watching it?
This is why I hate baseball.

Ok but what’s your medical opinion?
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 1 week ago:
I read something similar recently so I went to look it up. According to Donor Alliance:
“only 3 in 1,000 people pass away in a manner that allows for deceased organ donation”
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 1 week ago:
Well my attitude is
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 1 week ago:
I am fine with isolating myself from evil.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 1 week ago:
I do try. I actively boycott shitty companies (for 30 years and counting) and my list is long and swollen.
If more people took action on their principles our systems would be a lot less shitty.
Just because you can’t boycott everything doesn’t mean you should do nothing.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 1 week ago:
“Everything sucks so do nothing” is exactly how evil stays in power.
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 1 week ago:
The amount of people that donate organs is far lower than the need. We really ought to have an opt out system. Other people need your inside meat more than the embalmer does.
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 1 week ago:
I don’t really understand the authors point, if there even is one. They regale us with tales of how they wiretapped their family, but there is no lesson learned here. Don’t waste your time reading it like I did.
- Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game 2 weeks ago:
It is, except for the ones that come with built in APTs.
- Comment on I fucking hate modern design and modern designers. 3 weeks ago:
We use Skype.
No you don’t.
- Comment on Did I just dream this? Wasn't some kind of Steam app available on PlayStation some time ago? 3 weeks ago:
There are some websites that say you can stream from your PC to your PS5 using Remote Play, but I’ve never tried it.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 3 weeks ago:
No sweat, I see two replies! I wonder if he actually believed this any more than he believed anything else he spouted. I’m inclined to believe he’d say whatever makes him money.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 3 weeks ago:
Did they re-use one of his actual speeches or was he just cast to play this character and read these lines? I haven’t seen the film yet.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 3 weeks ago:
I had also never heard of it. It is available on usenet. I will be viewing it in the near future!
- Comment on Is Catholic dating culture often mistaken for incel-style pessimistic desperation? 4 weeks ago:
It’s where you try to find a partner that hates themselves as much as you do.
- Comment on Would you rather have a pet dinosaur or a pet dragon? 4 weeks ago:
Nope. I’m good.
- Comment on Does humanism lead to tolerance paradox? 5 weeks ago:
No. People who call out the ‘tolerance paradox’ are misunderstanding social tolerance. Tolerance of other humans is part our social contract to live with each other without violence. If you abandon the social contract by being hateful or violent to others, you are no longer protected by it. There is no paradox.
- Comment on How come id Software / Bethesda have never sued Bungie / Microsoft over the similarity between Doomguy and Master Chief? 5 weeks ago:
Sure, but they had to start somewhere. Reach is the 6th Halo game.
- Comment on How come id Software / Bethesda have never sued Bungie / Microsoft over the similarity between Doomguy and Master Chief? 5 weeks ago:
Green is the universal color of soldiers. The regular soldiers in Halo were wearing green. Master Chief’s armor was green because he was a soldier. It made perfect sense to me.
