Yes, indeed.
- Comment on laughs in 12 hours, while still driving through texas 3 days ago:
Do you know that European countries have “states”, too? And that this person crossed several of them (how many depends on the route taken) on the tour through Germany should be clear, too.
- Comment on Why was Hitler all about "blonde hair and blue eye Aryan?" When he would not be in the ball park of one or exhibit any of the traits he was looking for? 4 days ago:
Keep in mind that we are talking about right-wingers here. They are not known to make sense with their behavior. On the contrary, the word “mad” describes them quite well.
- Comment on When they fuck up your "TikTok" 4 days ago:
There were some tiktokers making a production of buying an ice cream cone for their kid near an event. With an extra camera guy running around, them reherasing and repeating moves right in front of us (we were sitting in front of the cafe and having an ice cup), etc. Just for fun I threw in a few loud comments about stupid and annoying tiktokers while they were filming.
- Comment on US Rep proposes bill to give video game buyers "ownership," not "a license" 4 days ago:
Nobody in his right likes it. The software companies do, though, for a number of reasons. First, they can squeeze more money out of people on the long run. Second, if we actually owned the software we paid for, we had much better legal standing with regards to reverse engineering or altering it to fit a purpose - something the normal licensing terms strictly forbid.

This stopped being funny about four or five posts ago.
- Comment on US Rep proposes bill to give video game buyers "ownership," not "a license" 5 days ago:
While it is a good idea, but it will result into a hell of a fight with the software industry in general. Their extortion schemes base on the very idea that you can’t own software at all.
- Comment on If college is a scam, where do you go to get better education? 1 week ago:
Europe.

That would definitely be easier than trying to milk them twice a day…

- Comment on Why is Nadal Hassan's execution being livestreamed? What makes him so special? Why not other people's execution's live streamed? What Jared Loughner? Or Bryan Kohbeger? 1 week ago:
How about Trumps execution? We’d have to wait for Nuremburg 2.0, but it would be worth it.
- Comment on Is it hard for native speakers of languages that use 漢字 to learn ABC as it's different to their own? 1 week ago:
Grammar is mostly independent from writing systems. It usually is a phonetic representation of the language. Usually a single symbol has a certain translation into a vowel or consonant, sometimes it is a group with such a translation (e.g. th, sh, ou, etc.)
With English, this is a bit different, because the great vowel shift and some imported typesetters created a discrepancy between the spoken word and it’s pronunciation on the one side, and that word’s written representation.

A severe case of “wrong hotel”. There are hotels for holidays, and hotels for business travellers. If they offer breakfast from 6 to 9, they are obviously in the “business travellers” category.
On the other hand, if your idea of a holiday is sleeping half the day, why bother leaving home?
- Comment on Tech hobbyists, How are you avoiding the crazy prices for computers and newer tech? 1 week ago:
I always had a good machine. As I’m not a gamer or slopmaker, I don’t need crazy amounts of ram or fat GPUs. I just wait until the LLM shit crashes, and will buy a new machine after that.

How to tell “I’m American” without saying a word.
- Comment on Why are entertainment figures jump on a chance to talk about a Free Palestine but not a Free Kurdistan? 2 weeks ago:
What’s a Kurdistan?
Seriously, that is the problem. Many people simply don’t know what is happening a few hundred kilometers away if the news does not shove it down their throat.
- Comment on How do I tell my co-workers I'm not attending a wedding without creating drama? 2 weeks ago:
Just tell them what you wrote about your mother and your brother. If they don’t want to understand, ignore them.
- Comment on How are wireless mice these days? 2 weeks ago:
No issues with that. I’ve got a mouse that can either connect with a USB dongle or directly to BT. Works like a charm. Flawless, fast, no latency I’d have noticed.
Only downside: Have a fresh battery at hand. I’ve got a pack of two in my laptop bag. It lasts for ages (many months), but when it fails, it fails. And due to Murphy, it always fails at the most inconvenient moment…

That’s Irish. English uses just toast.

- Comment on You've gotta ask yourself, "What's the point?" 3 weeks ago:
The point is to make the rich even richer. From that viewpoint, it is a very successful system.
- Comment on Dihydrogen Monoxide Research Division (DMRD) 🚱 3 weeks ago:
Especially those who are already crazy. Maybe one should drop this site into the MAGA crowd, and wait how long it takes DJT to make DHMO illegal.
- Comment on Dihydrogen Monoxide Research Division (DMRD) 🚱 3 weeks ago:
Be careful! The gaseous form of DHMO can lead to serious burns!
- Comment on Dihydrogen Monoxide Research Division (DMRD) 🚱 3 weeks ago:
THEY are hiding it! Thousands of dead people every year are found with serious amounts of DHMO in their lungs, but THEY are covering it up on the death certificate as “drowning”!
- Comment on Is gender affirming care for cis people a thing? 3 weeks ago:
Indeed it is. Most money in teenage gender affirming care goes into removing tits from obese boys.

- Comment on US will allow truckers to drive 16 hours per day instead of the previous limit of 14 hours 4 weeks ago:
Remember the time when railroaders went on strike because they wanted to be treated like pigs?
Because pigs were treated better than railroaders. Pigs were valuable freight and deserved a long rest after being on a train for 12 hours. No similar regulation existed for the people who ran a train…
