I mean, at least two billion people are Christian, so presumably they care. And that doesn’t even include the rest of us who get screwed over by Christian-conservative doublethink bullshit.
It absolutely matters.

Ignorance is not knowing things.
Stupidity is refusing to learn things.
- Comment on Nintendo says users voluntarily paid higher prices, have no right to tariff refunds | Nintendo says Switch buyers got what they paid for, urges court to dismiss lawsuit. 1 week ago:
Yeah, I’m never giving Nintendo another cent.
I didn’t buy a Switch 2, but the people who did are Nintendo’s biggest fans, and Nintendo have just told them in no uncertain terms “Haha, get fucked, loser”.

It did, but Reddit is horribly addictive.

I really hope this ends up being the push I need to quit Reddit.

I hope they had an adjudicator watching them go up there. Since they changed the recipe, you wouldn’t be able to tell just from watching them come out.
- Comment on If you need a portable reader, is there any reason to choose an e-reader over your phone? 2 weeks ago:
For me:
Better aspect ratio for large amounts of text. I just can’t imagine reading an entire novel on my phone.
No distractions. No notifications, no other apps I could be using instead.
Related to the previous point - e-readers are for reading. I’m much more likely to read a lot if I can compartmentalise “other stuff” to my phone. Not to mention other features like the ability to look up word meanings and change text size - all stuff in service of e-readers being “for reading”.
Page-turn buttons instead of a touch screen (depends on the e-reader).

True
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
I agree, but we can’t really expect every person to have the space to store all of their favourite media. Especially now that AI has ruined the price of hard drives.
Given modern internet speeds, the ability to delete and redownload games is actually a handy feature of digital. Though given Sony’s track record of deleting “purchased” media from customers’ accounts, I sure as shit wouldn’t trust them. Hell, I barely trust Steam.

I wish I remember what young me used to do. What he used to wish he had the money to do. All that sort of stuff.
Because now pretty much all I do is work, scroll Reddit, and watch Youtube.
- Comment on What is your favourite gaming console you have played? 5 weeks ago:
Playstation 1
Over 4000 games, many of which are weirdly experimental because “how to make 3D games” wasn’t codified yet, and CDs gave developers about 20 times more space than they had on the biggest cartridges - not to mention the lower cost of production.
Also, most of the soundtracks are absolute bangers.

I meant it more as a general thing - I should have said “we” instead.
They actually seem pretty chill about it here in New Zealand. My dad and I had one ISP notice in the early 2000s, but I’ve downloaded absolutely shitloads since and we haven’t heard a peep.
Nowadays I tend to use Usenet anyway; the speed of even the healthiest torrents pales in comparison.
- Comment on When did the Internet come to reflect society? Or has society shaped the internet? Were we always distrusting mean and vindictive before the net? Are we really that bad? 5 weeks ago:
It’s been going on a long time. Penny Arcade coined the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory in 2004.
- Comment on 🤔 Interesting 5 weeks ago:
The worst part (maybe the second worst after all the slop poisoning the internet nowadays) is the proof that copyright law is only for us poors.
I download a copyrighted work and get a strongly worded letter from my ISP, or worse. They download all the copyrighted works; scrape the data from them; and charge for the ability to use said data to make slop, and get fabulously wealthy from it.
