- Comment on How long do you think we'll keep seeing "formerly Twitter"? 1 month ago:
It’s just twitter and a zoom clone right?
- Comment on Amazon cloud boss says employees unhappy with 5-day office mandate can leave 2 months ago:
Would continue to work from home until they fire me.
- Comment on Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 sucks up to 180 Mb/s of internet bandwidth while in flight — equivalent to 81GB of data per hour 2 months ago:
Wasn’t even aware it was still a thing, apart from on mobile (where it somewhat makes sense-ish)
- Comment on Post Office explores taking branch owner-operators to court again 2 months ago:
The inquiry has already shown their method of data collection was flawed, the core systems had critical bugs compromising data integrity, and the processes for data validation were non-existant. Every time they audited a post master they were always basing it off the horizon reports.
As far as I’m aware, they can’t even advise what happens to all the money they forced the post masters to “pay back”.
They seems to have a shitty culture of treating the post masters like criminals unless proven innocent, and still believe they’re the victims of their own flawed software.
- Comment on Harvest in England the second worst on record because of wet weather 2 months ago:
There’s only 1,336 operational solar farms as of Sep 2024… So would be marginal at best. Certainly generating a lot less CO2 than if the land was developed into anything else.

Well technically he is now…
- Comment on I can't where the stupid "I voted" sticker. Because they stick it to the mail in ballot instead. 2 months ago:

This an American thing? This is exactly what happens in the UK.

Using a password manager would avoid this. Everyone should ideally use unique passwords per service, that way a single account can’t compromise the others.
The loss of personal data however is fricking annoying. If a company has no legitimate reason, I avoid signing up to them.
Looking at you Nvidia, Razar, etc…
- Comment on Bots ruined an once useful website with fake credentials that lead to nothing 8 months ago:
And a rate limit
- Comment on Reasonable 8 months ago:
As someone whose had the priviledge working both in a call centre & retail for several years… you’re wrong.
Most is local colloquialisms, where regions sometimes substitute words or phrases for others.
And then there’s the “native English speakers” that are straight up idiots, and butchering the language constantly…
The amount of South Londoners that say “arced” instead of “asked” is too damn high.
- Comment on What firing your PR team does to a motherfucker 8 months ago:
I now see Elon as Justin Hammer.
He damaged his personal image, started working with terrorists, and began trying to replicate other people’s technology.
- Comment on A celebration of survival 8 months ago:
Add a firm but reassuring “Thank fuck for that! Now I can get off this death trap.”

Horniness & Sexual Frustration
- Comment on This shouldn’t be normalised 9 months ago:
I’m legitimately interested in getting the bank account & sort code details of Elon, Bezos, Arnault, Zuckerberg, Gates, Ballmer, Buffet, Ellison, Page, and Brin.
- Comment on Yummy 11 months ago:
All the foods I adore contains dairy. I’ve yet to find substitutes which doesn’t suck.
I tolerate my intolerance… All the tummy ache is worth.
- Comment on That escalated quickly 😬 11 months ago:
You’re in an abusive relationship with Duolingo. Support is available.
- Comment on Bethesda's Game Design Was Outdated a Decade Ago [37:21] - NakeyJakey 1 year ago:
Considering how expensive they’re getting, I certainly started to wait a couple of days/weeks before purchasing anything now.
With the current state of the industry, it’s saved both my time & money several times this year (unfortunately). Too many games I was excited for turned out to be unoptimised rubbish.
- Comment on Finland to vote against the EU mass surveillance and encryption ban directive 1 year ago:
Not just stupid, it’s reckless.
We’re heavily reliant on encryption functioning correctly for even the most mundane activities in our modern lives. Privacy is fundementual right, even against our own governments.
Adding backdoors or weakening ciphers won’t stop the criminals, but it sure would make us extremely vulnerable to foreign & domestic actors.
- Comment on The amount of spam texts I get from Republican campaigns 1 year ago:
“I will always love you…”
Literal stalkers. Fucking creepy.
