- Comment on Do YOU consider Kanji difficult? 3 days ago:
I had a friend give me kanji learning cards and she had to write the pronunciation of each word for me. It had me stumped that similar kanji had no phonetic relationship.
I can sometimes read a kana word in under 30 seconds. I’m that bad. At least the symbols that look similar often sound similar too.

The US thinks the self-hoster is an enemy of the state.

I’ve seen an uptick on people walking to the train station. I’m even seeing businessmen on e-scooters on the suburban fringe.
- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 1 week ago:
Nope. I habe GrapheneOS on a Pixel 9a with everything backed up over NextCloud on a headless Ubuntu rackmount server.
You were waaaaay off 😆
- Comment on Guardian Essential poll: more than half of Australians open to voting for One Nation despite Hanson’s Muslim comments 5 weeks ago:
Even if PHON yells some things that resonate with us, I just can’t trust them because of their associates.
Anyone who hangs out with the NRA, Gina and Trump will absolutely not serve my interests.

Probably. I have no idea what “easy” is meant to be.

Mine’s so loud that people have to shout over it to get my attention.
- Comment on First time back home in 7 years. Where to get coffee and decent eats 5 weeks ago:
You’re still good for latte prices. I just got back from eu/uk and was horrified that it’s nearly 10 bucks for a small coffee in most places. Even Starbucks costs double what it does in Australia.
It’s still about $5 for a small barista coffee. Ironically, the cheapest good coffee in Melbourne is at 7-Eleven. A can of Coffee Boss is around $4. About double what I was paying in Tokyo 2 years ago. It’s not even imported. Drink the fresh stuff.

He’s like 90 years old and I watched him do a 2 hour gig and only took one sip of coke halfway. I have no idea how he does it.

Literal definition of “incel”.
- Comment on The old icons were better 2 months ago:
It’s funny how icons back then were rendered with the detail of a renaissance painting, and now that we have hidpi displays, they are designed like they have to render in EGA.
- Comment on Shout out to the NYE shift at all the Emergency Departments around the world. 2 months ago:
I would expect 8 of those 9 to be straight-up nubbed. Not worth the effort.
- Comment on Lol, lmao even. 3 months ago:
To obtain a PhD, you need to contribute something original to your field of study, not just regurgitate what you’ve scraped from other studies.
- Comment on These platforms are currently exempt from the under-16s social media ban. But that could all change 3 months ago:
4chan doesn’t need an account. There’s nothing to verify.
- Comment on As of December 10th, You need to be sixteen to use Aussie.Zone 3 months ago:
I’ll write my username above my pubes with a sharpie. That’ll prove I’m 16, yeah?

It needs timepieces. Or am I the only one who likes NTP, ISO-8601 and Casio F-91Ws?

- Comment on I would give my life savings for something that eradicates them from my apartment 😌 5 months ago:
I’m surprised it’s so low. My brother in law just sent me a photo posing with the red-bellied black snake that he found in his suburban Melbourne backyard today.
- Comment on I would give my life savings for something that eradicates them from my apartment 😌 5 months ago:
The Australian ones (whitetails) are more populous, venemous, and aggressive than you could imagine in summer. I’d have a kill one inside my house almost every day.
It probably doesn’t help that our houses seal worse than an average tent.

The doc questiones why I wanted a vasectomy at 30, which he thought was young.
“I have 3 kids already.”
That’s all it took to convince him.
