Ironically, that would be treason.
- Comment on What vacuum should I buy for 66% carpets in 140sqft condo? Sub $500 1 week ago:
Shark is an American brand
I don’t get this. Are we boycotting American products now?
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 1 week ago:
Let’s put it this way, the market price for the Switch 2 is roughly the same converted price in the UK. Now, to my knowledge, the UK hasn’t also introduced these tariffs quietly so I can’t, in good conscience, blame ol’ Delusional Donald for this one.
- Comment on Why Do Sites Keep Shoving Features We Don’t Want Down Our Throats? 1 week ago:
Because they’re delusional enough to think if they cater to the audiences of other sites they’ll tempt that audience to scrape off to their site instead of the site that came up with the thing and do it better.
- Comment on How to get rid of Whatsapp? 1 week ago:
Install something like GBWhatsapp. Whatsapp seems to do ban waves every now and again so there’s no guarantee on the time frame you’ll get banned (it took about 4 years for them to catch up with me) but it’ll more than likely happen eventually.
- Comment on Should a movie released in 1995 be considered an "old" movie? 1 week ago:
I don’t think this is what Einstein had in mind when he spoke of relativity.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Yup. Armchair experts are just the best.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
People with far too much time on their hands, a desire to label everything and a tendency toward negativity. My personal gripe lately is weaponised psychoanalysis terms.
- Comment on Is this working? 2 weeks ago:
What’s your next fishing attempt going to be? Calling me chicken?
- Comment on Is this working? 2 weeks ago:
Why would I do such a thing when you’ve done a thorough job of proving you’re the sort of person none of us want in there?
- Comment on Is this working? 2 weeks ago:
Not true, they’re just usually private servers specifically to keep the annoying children out.
- Comment on Do animals think we're cute? 2 weeks ago:
“Fiiine, I shall keep you hooman”
- Comment on HP are interested in making a SteamOS handheld as the Windows experience sucks 2 weeks ago:
It’s a bold assumption that parts would even be available to buy.
- Comment on Has modern technology made espionage easier or more difficult? 3 weeks ago:
I know it’s made it harder for me to get into my own accounts.
- Comment on Do I need to choose a language when posting on Lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
Precisely
- Comment on I have tried to look it up but has Trump done anything to combat Internet Piracy? Asking for a friend. Like going as far as Obama did? 3 weeks ago:
You think he’d make it double illegal?
- Comment on Why are Maries Sues hated while Gary Stus are loved? 3 weeks ago:
It’s not that they aren’t an example, but a bad example. Even as a fan of isekai and someone who doesn’t mind the trope, I know how much hate Gary Stus get. Mention Kirito to anyone other than an unapologetic SAO lover and watch them convulse.
- Comment on Are old people usually attracted to other old people? 3 weeks ago:
I’m sure that holds up well in court
- Comment on Meaning of the phrase “Hang dead.”? 4 weeks ago:
Given the context, I highly doubt this is the intent. Would love it if it were though.
- Comment on What was the 'bear vs man' controversy? 4 weeks ago:
Sadly, the reverse has come to be true for a lot of men.
- Comment on How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach? 4 weeks ago:
France French people say wayh too. It’s the same difference between saying “yes” and “yeah”.
- Comment on After two hours, open world shooter Atomfall is far more Far Cry than S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 5 weeks ago:
A staple of modern journalism.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 5 weeks ago:
Routine updates. Until recently hardware was getting better at such a rate they’d upgrade before software became an issue. The power increase curve has mostly plateau’d over the past several years so the incentive to upgrade is significantly lower so people are keeping their older hardware for longer and suddenly seeing the problems. That and the average user is now getting more aware of security updates.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 5 weeks ago:
Both of which have proven to be lies by the likes of the Sony Xperia phones which still do nearly everything right. I say nearly because they’re plagued with bad fingerprint sensors which is the only reason I had to stop using my 1 III.
- Comment on How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation? 5 weeks ago:
And the same for the headphone jack. Getting rid of it just so they can force you to buy planned e-waste fast is less convenient and more expensive should be a crime.
- Comment on Like Trump says that the cartels have invaded Canada wouldn't they have to pass through the US, avoid checkpoint, border control on both sides and many other things? So Canada can only blame the US? 5 weeks ago:
Yes but that would take too much logic for Trump to realise what a bad claim it is.
- Comment on What’s an acceptable gender neutral replacement for “techbro”? 5 weeks ago:
Chucklefuck.
- Comment on Does 'attempted murder' require a viable method? 1 month ago:
Personally I’d say so but I could also see it getting taken under conspiracy to commit murder.
- Comment on Why can’t people accept that cats are human? 1 month ago:
What on earth are you babbling? If the point you’re trying to make is that cats, like other animals, can show traits of humanity, sure, I’ll give you that. But if you’re trying to spew that a scientifically identified species is a completely different scientifically identified species… well then, I just might know of a bridge that’s become available for purchase in your area.
- Comment on Sooo, where did the blatant Nazism suddenly come from? 1 month ago:
When the Hail Hydra comes out a little too early so they call it a speech impediment.
