- Comment on lol 2 days ago:
I’ve always interpreted it the opposite way. To me, it comes off as highly sarcastic and feels mocking. I always read it an insult, like the person is dismissively laughing at what I said.
- Comment on Star Citizen relabels alpha 4.11 to alpha 5.0 and dates its next Intergalactic Aerospace Expo free-fly event 4 days ago:
I’m pretty confident that anyone still paying for it at this point knows what to expect.
- Comment on I support this 5 days ago:
Ohh hey, free baby!
- Comment on Is "On your left" the best thing to say when passing someone on a trail? 2 weeks ago:
If it looks like someone that may panic, I tend to go with “bike back” and let them figure out what they want to do, rather that try to give them an instruction.
- Comment on Drawquarium - Official Release Date Trailer 2 weeks ago:
I went to a museum exhibit with this concept once. Huge room with projectors showing a seascape on the walls. There was paper for kids to draw fish and other things on and then scan. The system would then drop the digital fish in to the scene with hundreds of other kid drawn fish. The fun was trying to find your fish.
- Comment on If at a restaurant a guy is choking and I give them the Heimlich and accidentally break a rib while trying to save his life. Can I be sued? 2 weeks ago:
You can be sued for anything. It’s the chance of winning that’s important.
- Comment on BioWare Was Asked to Remove LGBTQ Flag from Canceled Mass Effect Game, Report Says 2 weeks ago:
At the current pace, the US will catch up soon though!
- Comment on Show me what slimed you. 3 weeks ago:
Image. It is pretty heavy I guess…
- Comment on How come manufacturers use base 10 units when calculating the space of a hard drive? Giving you 931GB per TB Hard Drive. Why not advertise the number windows reads? 3 weeks ago:
Marketing. They can advertise higher numbers than they practically deliver.
- Comment on Jeff Bezos claims AI could allow 3-day workweeks; man who won't give employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon 5 weeks ago:
He looks like Lex Luther from Smallville.
- Comment on Minimum Wage Must Cover Basics 1 month ago:
They should also be able to afford a little bit of fun too.
- Comment on They say, "You'll have to wait". It's a bullshit argument against Universal Healthcare. 1 month ago:
In the American system you don’t wait because insurance just denies you instead.
- Comment on Reddit repost bots taking over entire communities 1 month ago:
Well done, it had me laughing. I always appreciate a good “your mom” insult.
- Comment on Reddit repost bots taking over entire communities 1 month ago:
Is everything ok? You seem to be going through something here. Just know we’re here for you if you decide you need help.
- Comment on Reddit repost bots taking over entire communities 1 month ago:
I looked at a few of the posts from the screen shot and most of that “engagement” is people warning other people that it’s bot posted content, or pointing out reposted Reddit memes. I don’t consider that real engagement. There are a few that seen to have created real discussion, but the majority of the posts are noise.
- Comment on Reddit repost bots taking over entire communities 1 month ago:
Bots are not “solving that problem” because the lack of posts was never really the problem in the first place. The problem was lack of anything to engage with. Bot posts do nothing for engagement. Replying to their posts is just talking into the wind.
We to want to have conversations with real people; to know that when we insult the poster’s mother that we’re causing real, lasting harm to a flesh and blood person.
- Comment on Sophia the robot - I will destroy humans 1 month ago:
I came here to ask the same question
- Comment on Just to get this straight. If I stand outside a voting center and give each person 500 bucks to vote for me. That is illegal? But if I am a Dipshit In Chief and offer 5k that is 100 percent legal? 2 months ago:
They won’t even let you stand outside a polling place and hand out water bottles to people waiting in line.
- Comment on That's the worst possible view for a hotel 2 months ago:
That’s pretty bad, but if you think it’s the “worst possible”, you lack imagination.
- Comment on The town and HOA only have two settings for a holiday: Jesus and Troops. I guess Labor days is a "Troops" holiday. 2 months ago:
It’s all great until a couple of crazy little Hitlers move in and take over.
- Comment on After a year of struggling and losing my job to AI, my game finally made it to 4000 wishlists! This is how it feels: 2 months ago:
Sounds very cool. I’m just hoping the title isn’t giving away what could otherwise be a very clever potential plot twist.
- Comment on “Tf???” 2 months ago:
Moopsy! Image
- Comment on How about instead, a longer healthier retirement? 2 months ago:
The number must go up at any cost.
- Comment on The American Dream, minus 60% 2 months ago:
Is there anyone reading this that doesn’t?
- Comment on The American Dream, minus 60% 2 months ago:
Be angry at the right things then. This person’s post is basically being angry that someone agreed with them but used slightly different words to do it.
- Comment on The American Dream, minus 60% 2 months ago:
I do not have a problem with the “60%” wording. It’s more accurate and in some cases, larger than “majority”. Complaining about that just feels like playing word games.
- Comment on Hot Ones trying to sneak in the package protection 2 months ago:
Aren’t they already legally required to get you the item you paid for without this anyway? Like if I don’t receive the item I paid for, through no fault of my own, that’s their problem to fix, isn’t it? Otherwise it’d be theft?
- Comment on Waiting and getting treated is better than waiting and going bankrupt 2 months ago:
It’s called triage. If you go in with a splinter you’re going to have to wait behind the guy that came in after you with a piece of rebar through his skull.
Lots of people don’t understand that it isnt a deli counter where you take a number and are called in order.
Many of these conservative “studies” compare wait times between Canadian booboos and American traumas without explicitly calling it out, and that’s not a fair comparison.
- Comment on What is the easiest way to calculate the calories in this bread machine recipe? 2 months ago:
Looks like a standard price of heavy paper, so I’d say about 9 calories. It’s going to be a pretty tough chew though.
- Comment on Doorless showers just make a mess and everything ends up wet 2 months ago:
That shower is larger than my entire bathroom
