- Comment on Got a Switch today, need some recommendations. 4 weeks ago:
I absolutely loved Splatoon 2, especially the DLC. It’s such a shame that you have to pay for online battles though.
- Comment on You have to type www. to access the Texas DMV website. 5 weeks ago:
While I do mostly agree with your statement, it’s incredibly annoying when I type in a local IP for my router or server and it automatically gets turned into https.
- Comment on Use WhatsApp without a smartphone? 1 month ago:
I believe WhatsApp needs the mobile app to connect to WhatsApp’s servers at least once every two weeks.
I think your best bet would be getting the cheapest phone you can find that will run a recent WhatsApp version, and then just leaving that at home connected to the internet. You could then use any WhatsApp web client (the website, some app, a matrix bridge, …) to actually use WhatsApp on the go.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
While it’s not at the same level as Graphene OS, Samsung is pretty well supported by Lineage OS. AFAIK at least in Europe Samsung phones have an unlockable bootloader, but YMMV.
- Comment on Me trying to insert a flash drive at night 1 month ago:
Duude I tried blindly plugging in a USB-C at the back of my PC ones, I was like “Aha, gotcha” and then my PC just shut down. First came confusion, then I realized it wiggled left and right. That was incredibly scary, luckily ASRock has good protection circuits so nothing happened.
But I sure as hell haven’t blindly plugged in USB-C since then.
- Comment on Need android game recommendations 1 month ago:
Dolphin (Wii and Gamecube emulator) sounds like something for you.
MineTest should also fit your criteria.
I believe there are a few games on F-Droid, I haven’t tried any of them tho. Other than that, I believe the best games for you would be Wii games or an older console. Possibly also switch (with yuzu if you find an apk), but that requires a beefy phone.
- Comment on Amsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes down 2 months ago:
And the system would need to be installed in all street legal ebikes for that to happen.
Wouldn’t street legal ebikes not go too fast by default anyway? I feel like if that’s the case, this would mostly inconvenience people with legal ebikes and have barely any effect on illegal ones that can go faster.
- Comment on Being forced to download the Reddit app onto my phone to view any 'NSFW' post, even though I'm on my desktop 3 months ago:
I can highly recommend rdx for browsing reddit without an account

Yooo this reminds me, I think there was an AITA on reddit some time ago about a guy who burned down a Pizza place due to putting the entire bee movie script in a message box

Oh damn I wasn’t expecting to see a 2023 car with an AUX port

There actually is an EV with engine sounds and a “manual transmission” from Toyota. According to ArsTechnica, it’s supposed to be pretty good:
