I’m sceptical about all this. In fact, I’m sceptical about everything!

I don’t think you can own ideas and concepts (outside of very specific circumstances) and I’m willing to die on this hill.
It would be hypocritical of me to change my mind just because piracy has become mainstream.

Every time a new medium opens for new people, a ton of crap is generated and everyon is shouting about the end times. And yet, we’re still here.
The game dev ecosystem is already 99% crap. Open the playstore if you don’t believe me.
- Comment on Have I stumbled across a cult? 1 week ago:
Although the star origin has been pretty popular basis for many recent exceptionalist cults.
Some of them seem pretty cool, until you inevetably discover who the descendents of the bad aliens are supposed to be. First correct tip gets an upvote!

You can’t just say this and not provide a source! I want my parakeet prophecy!
- Comment on Stop Giving 2 Weeks' Notice: Company loyalty goes both ways. 1 week ago:
A video, targeted to a western audience, saying “be shitty to each other”. I may be getting into the tinfoil hat territory, but still wonder why are these takes so numerous lately, and who benefits from them.

A nice car ride with calming piano music? How is this not a peak of his day?

Love how the rows wiggle relative to each other. Keeps you focused :D
- Comment on assuming the world is undergoing a complete and radical transformation at the moment, what is preventing more people from "waking up" and seeing the trends happening? 3 weeks ago:
my research indicates the world is going through a complete transformation.
My research indicates that such words usually end up in rape, mass suicide or occasional terrorism.
- Comment on EU citizens on here, Ross Scott is warning about a draconian law in the European Unio. 3 weeks ago:
It would still need a way to implement age verification
Not really. Take nostr as an example. You probably wouldn’t even notice if one or more of your relays went down due to legal, or any other problem. The move to a non compliant or offshore relay is just a single click away. No registrations, no new usernames, no new social graph.
It’s not about becoming compliant, it’s about becoming ungovernable.

I really wish we would move to some more resilient protocol, where the roles and responsibilities are more distributed, and identities fully portable.
- Comment on how to watch less youtube on my tv? 2 months ago:
YT seems to try and soft reset my suggestions
Ah, I tend to forget the vast majority of the world browses youtube logged in! I only get recommendations based on the last few videos watched that day.
- Comment on how to watch less youtube on my tv? 2 months ago:
How do you find so much content to watch? For me, the worthwile content simply runs out after a while and the recomendation engine just starts to push the uninteresting clickbait videos.
- Comment on When do we riot? 2 months ago:
I applaud the initiative (because at least they are actively trying instead of just talking about it), despite the inevitably devastating outcome this will have.
For anyone who would be interested in joining, be aware that not only will you lose everything you send there, the lawyers will strip you bare throughout the decades long legal battles, after what is basically an insurance company you helped to crowdfund goes belly up.

- Comment on Is Buying a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS Pre-Installed Dangerous? 2 months ago:
Short answer: yes.
Long answer: You can use the attestation app bundled with graphene to check the integrity of the system. The catch is, you need another phone with graphene os to do it properly. There is also an online attestation check, but IF the OS is purpusfully infected, you can’t rely on what the app itself says.
If I were you, I’d try to reinstall it. The whole procedure can be done from following instructions in amy chromium based web browser. grapheneos.org/install/web
- Comment on Are there any payment aggregators (Like Paypal for instance) that prioritize user privacy? 2 months ago:
The financial regulations in EU are draconian. There is no concept of privacy whatsoever.
They took the worst disadvantages of a blockchain and made them a feature.

If you were given £500,000 a year on the condition that you paid £20,000 additional tax, would you say yes?
No.

They won’t. Latency is a bitch. There is a reason why geforce now is still a niche thing, despite offering a free tier.

Check the reputation of your IP: www.abuseipdb.com
There might be some bullshit false positives, but it can also give you a general idea about anything shady going on in your network.

Nope. The latest patch is from Aug 2024. The last time I tried was Sep 2025 and the problem was still present.
