  Thanks, Dookieman12

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's been a while since I was fired from my job, so here's a picture of Windows updating at the wrong time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t like Windows, but at the point where the laptop updates automatically hasn’t it been bugging you about the update for hours or even days? I generally file complaints about bad update timings in the “fucked around and found out” folder

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've been using this simple trick to keep cool in the heat wave (UK)⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you. I thought I was insane because surely mobile units would have two tubes if they really needed them. Then I got one with a single tube (the only ones available) and found out that no, I am sane and these units work really badly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨👴☝️I did that⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s bizarre. Worse than being consistent, somehow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨👴☝️I did that⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably before VAT.

  Me looking at the poop in the toilet after having eaten an entire bucket of sugar free Haribo bears:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My friend Charlie is back....⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I too think it’s magnesium, but what I can actually confirm is that I haven’t had this since I started taking multivitamins. Y’all are vitamin deficient.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨here there be lions⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe not the lions? Unless you think men fighting over harems of women is cooperation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ideas coming down the track⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No need to apologize.

  Anyway, US airlines can and do choose between Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, and Embraer. No single company holds them hostage. On the supply side, the Airbus factory in Mobile, Alabama employs more than 2000 workers. And of course Airbus has US suppliers in addition to this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ideas coming down the track⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The lack of widespread regenerative breaking in subways is leading to commuters’ lungs being filled with brake dust, in addition to heating up the stations, which is a problem in summer. This is really bad and embarrassing. Rail moves far too slow when it comes to adopting new tech.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ideas coming down the track⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How is the airline industry just Boeing? What an odd thing to say.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨iRobot’s future isn’t looking up⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Apparently the arm doesn’t work that well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨iRobot’s future isn’t looking up⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Roborock seems to be the nvidia of robot vacuums. They’re not always the best, but are seen as a safe choice, and they have the best app. I gave up on reading tests since apparently models are refreshed every monday, and just got a roborock.

  The best vacuum is apparently the Dreame X50 Ultra Complete, and you can actually find it in stores still, but it costs like 1200 euros or something insane like that.

  Tldr it’s a market for lemons, sadly. Everyone copes by getting Roborock. The one known good one costs as much as a 5080.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bbbzzzz bbzzzzz mmmmmmm bbbzzzzzzz⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some of these series are alright if you skip every other game. After two-three releases they will have accumulated some innovation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bad board games⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s about landlordism specifically, not capitalism. Used to be called “The Landlord’s Game”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The low-cost creative revolution: How technology is making art accessible to everyone⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair, there’s a lot of “art” in video games that no other industry would recognize as such. Brick textures. That kind of thing. I’m perfectly okay with using AI for these necessary but unimportant tasks. Same with using stock assets. These assets just have to be good enough for nobody to notice they’re there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well OK then⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And tbf they’d be correct. Best you can hope for is a laugh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve opening pre-orders for new hardware⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn. Thought they launched something new.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Maybe someday 😌⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Do these people not ever talk to anyone in real life? How do you arrive at thinking all real humans are Marxists/Leninists?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We live wasted lives⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Once everything has been optimized and runs smoothly, there are no surprises anymore, nothing interesting, you just do a routine that you’ve specialized in and have gotten bored at 10 years ago. Our quality of life is unparalleled. Our quality of work less so. It’s safe and all, but so so boring

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Corporations are saving the planet!⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the kind of plastic used in bottles is one of very few that actually are profitable to recycle. PET, I think. This is actually something recycling companies want. Most other plastic is just burned or shipped somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MrBeast scraps AI YouTube thumbnail generator days after announcing it: 'If creators don't want the tools, no worries'⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If his shows aren’t entertaining why are so many people entertained by them? Makes no sense. People may have no taste, but that’s a different issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They used to keep that thing ice cold straight through the 90s.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The tusks know where they are because they know where they are not

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mantis, watch out!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You didn’t have to write this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm sure it's just a coincidence that everything that can be wielded against them either just isn't implemented (good mod tooling) or doesn't work properly (user/instance blocking)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Would love to block .ml. The stuff coming out of there is just too dumb.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be surprised if anyone has. You need to actually use a language to learn it properly. But an app is a good start and supplement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Tge principal is not necessarily any smarter than the teachers. Often it’s the opposite.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Console war, console war never changes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Kinda agree, but the consoles already are alternatives to Windows. Don’t really see what’s super special about the Steam Deck, tbh.

  Surprised Microsoft hasn’t made some sort of DRM to prevent Xbox studio games from being played on Proton, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Om nom nom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s vile

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let's play this game again⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The USA.
