You’re telling me you cant keep track of 30-45 simple chirps off a standard reference cricket in a 15 second period? Did you even go to school dude?

It’s stunning how much of the humor on that show comes from someone mishearing something
- Comment on Industrial Light & Magic's Chief Creative Promotes AI Slop During His TED Talk 3 months ago:
Sigh. So, he used Photoshop? How long are we gonna keep doing this breathless “OMG an AI was used in this graphic design application!!!” shit? It’s exhausting. People are going to use AI in graphic applications because it’s really hard to avoid and it’s semi-useful at times. People will also be bad at it for a while, then they’ll get better. fucks sake.
- Comment on Let's put an end to the discussion; what is the best way? 3 months ago:
Yeah I don’t wanna exaggerate but it was nearly the worst environment I could think of to just leave bread in. If you had a party or a brunch or something and didn’t want the bread sitting out, sure, but for having in there for a week and a half unmonitored, we’ve been taken for absolute fools. :)
- Comment on Let's put an end to the discussion; what is the best way? 3 months ago:
Had one, hated it, forget the bread was in there and it doesn’t have some sort of magical bread preservation properties, it’s just a spot taking up counter space to hold a plastic bag.

Check the notes.
- Comment on Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight? 4 months ago:
We are primates, and when we put all the martial arts together (MMA) it turns into a match of who can get on top of and neutralize their opponent. A bear doesn’t have any way of attacking a primate if the primate can get to its back. As a human, we wouldn’t have the dexterity or strength to get around, cling onto a bear and choke it out, but a bear-sized gorilla probably could and once it does that it’s neutralized every mode of attack the bear has except writhing around and pushing it into other objects.
- Comment on Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight? 4 months ago:
I don’t know, but they’re physically capable of it. I once had an anthropology professor who demonstrated the difference between simian-like arms and quadruped-like arms, and the major part of it was noting that you’ve never seen a cat spread their arms out like the Vetrivian Man (they can’t). In the evaluation of ape vs. bear combat I don’t want to discount the capability of the ape to grasp, latch on or choke.
- Comment on Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight? 4 months ago:
I could see a gorilla choking a bear out though, the bear isn’t going to be able to strangle the gorilla from behind.

Yeah but do you really know this industry? 😉 Thanks for elaborating!
- Comment on Why don’t brands make simpler names? 5 months ago:
This is awesome context. Do you know of places consumers could go to find those slightly less mainstream SKUs? I’m assuming you mean it could be like a dual display port version of monitor vs a hdmi/displayport version or something meant for the PAL region vs NTSC (as examples)?

- Comment on Stream Fatigue? Americans Spent 23% Less on Streaming Services in 2024, Study Finds 8 months ago:
dropped netflix this month for the first time in, god, like 17 years. Just not watching it and all the trash behavior they engage in. When a few services finally crash and burn and get consolidated and everyone stops piecemealing out the rights, maybe I’ll come back. Til then, ahoy.

Ok but it’s not done by a bunch of Robin Hood’s, they rip off (read: steal and then destroy the economic capacity) of small/independent designers all the time too.
- Comment on conditional probability 8 months ago:
yeah I think the way I always read that question was in the hundred duck sized horses vs one horse-sized duck sense. The average woman passes by, say, in public, hundreds of men per day in a city, right? I read that question (and the implication) that they’d prefer from a safety standpoint if each one of them was a bear, which is more of a video game premise than a situation anyone would survive.

If Concord’s launch was a rocket, it would have bored a hole into the launch pad because the thrusters were backward, and I don’t think anyone would have called it a “launch” in any conventional sense.
So how can it be a comeback if it never even came?

- Comment on Is Disney Bad at Star Wars? An Analysis 11 months ago:
As long as they keep shoving more stories somewhere in between some otherwise inconsequential aspect of the original trilogy it will just keep grinding to nothing. They’ll make an entire movie following the production of an intergalactic cheese pizza so you can understand why the lieutenant commander in the background shot of a scene in episode 4 farted. Tell some fucking new stories already.

- Comment on Interactive Entertainment 11 months ago:
No, you don’t. The brand is run by a (gasp) clueless billionaire who thinks it’s cute to overplay this. So stores are filled with stupid signs that say stuff like “Aisle” or “Food” and the net effect of it is kind of dystopian and miserable (but, in a mocking way). Enjoy your generic “Slop”, “Poor”.

Oh I thought the sign was going to say “we have to sacrifice everything we believe in for the incredibly narrow issues going on in a single state because of the Electoral College, that’s how democracy works you dumbfuck” but my eyes are getting bad
