Behold, a cynic.
- Comment on Why do people from Western societies always seem to complain? 2 days ago:
Negativity bias has been an evolutionary advantage for hundreds of thousands of years of our development. You don’t exactly “breed out” a trait that has been honed to such a degree in a generation or two.
- Comment on History tells us what happens when the bread and circus stops 1 week ago:
When it got this bad in Rome most emperors quickly pulled a Liberalitas and, quite literally, showered the plebs in coins or at the very least, tokens for the grain dole. Unsurprisingly this worked (though it did have its limits).
- Comment on Yeah, let's stop with this "don't judge people for their poiltics" bullshit 1 week ago:
America is waking up to the reality, as Germany once did, that 1/3 of their population wants to kill another 1/3 while the other 1/3 watches and stands by.
- Comment on Advice on enjoying your life 1 week ago:
2/12 ain’t that bad I guess.

Do you work for Russell Dunbar?
- Comment on For No Reason in Particular Here's a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis 2 weeks ago:
I feel like that’s one texture replacement away from reality. But knowing that side they would relentlessly attack it and make it seem like some kind of “maga kill simulator” or w/e.

Mein leben!
- Comment on Will online only "Device Activation" become the norm for every device in the future? / Will everything require an app in the future? 2 weeks ago:
Yes, but everything can be hacked. I foresee a vibrant underground scene for such things.
- Comment on Does anyone know what Trump is going to do with people with mental disabilities who get SSDI? Or can someone link me something on Trump and SSDI since google is cleaning up Trump from searches? 2 weeks ago:
All the “undesirables” will simply no longer be subsidized. So if you or a loved one depend on any kind of governmental assistance… count on it going away 100%.

“Dr.” 🤮

Would explain my excessive base-building and decorating in Subnautica.

Me in the same shower, wondering the same thing at age 40…
- Comment on yes girl 4 weeks ago:
I know the context but it’s honestly much funnier without.
ChubbyEmu used this meme in one of his latest vids. I about died.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I believe it’s real. But somewhat rare. I have been a 20+ years smoker and despite a myriad of issues, cannabis-induced psychosis or chs aren’t among them. I realize this information is highly anecdotal.
- Comment on After shutting down several popular emulators, Nintendo admits emulation is legal 5 weeks ago:
. You’re barely even buying a console anymore, a lot of this hardware has more or less converged. What you’re buying is access to the cultivated ecosystem.
Bingo. In an age where most people’s phones have better hardware than the Switch, it’s all about access to the walled garden instead of hardware.

RIP Peter o7.
- Comment on What's the endgame when the rich have all the money? 1 month ago:
It’s tragedy of the commons on a supermassive scale. No one comes out on top in the end, the overprivileged just take a little longer to die. But die they will.
- Comment on Sony is working on Horizon Zero Dawn and Helldivers 2 movies 1 month ago:
Ugh. Not looking forward to it. May end up unreleased as tax write offs instead, Sony does that regularly now.
- Comment on Go into debt if you have to 1 month ago:
I have like 3K, if you come up with the other 19997000 we’re golden.
- Comment on Caveman technology 1 month ago:
The wifi naturally accumulates in underground spots.
Or was that radon? Always get those confused.
- Comment on Oh yay 1 month ago:
This is unironically my greatest fear, and I know this to be true.
The cringe is real.
- Comment on Y'all get those "Weird Amazon Shenanigans" where ordering later get you an even faster delivery? (like wtf?!?) Well I just witnessed this shenanigan. 1 month ago:
Almost any and all “tracking information” is fictitious. Many, many companies use estimates and present those as facts. Some are a lot more egregious about it than others. In my neck of the woods, I’ve noticed that PostNL’s tracking info is often made up whole cloth, telling you your package will be with you tomorrow while it hasn’t even entered the country yet, much less cleared customs.
- Comment on If someone murdered me, how long would it take (if ever) until they catch the murderer? 1 month ago:
If you aren’t important and the perp halfway knows what they’re doing - never. A majority of murders are never solved, you’d just become a statistic.
- Comment on Amazon: The same 31 products you don't want, again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again 1 month ago:
I’ve never used Amazon in my entire life (well, I’ve probably visited websites hosted on AWS, but that’s it).
I see no reason to change that. Besides we have a pretty neat alternative in the Benelux in the form of bol.com. Loads cheaper & more local.

“Titta”
- Comment on Vehicle plows into crowded Christmas market in Germany, killing 2 and injuring dozens 2 months ago:
Perp is apparently a psychiatrist. That’s an… interesting background for something like this, to say the least.

I thought they were up to mice now but I might be mistaken.
- Comment on I'm literally a thinking lump of fat 2 months ago:
Also fairly sure that electrical impulses alone cannot account for consciousness. If that were “all” there was to it we’d have simulted a human brain by now. There’s a few theories about quantum processes being involved but this isn’t exactly easily proven.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 2 months ago:
I want to reward him.
I’ve never subscribed to anyone’s patreon ever before but I would sub to his.
