Oh yes, his performance is reason enough for a rewatch. 🤌🏻
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 5 weeks ago:
also doesn’t hurt to have a thick skin too, because you’ll be both criticized and made fun of for your choices.
As somebody who started out with PHP I can fully relate to this. 😋
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 5 weeks ago:
Anon pretty much sums up my experience with Java when I had to learn it in college 20-ish years ago. I’ll never get rid of my distaste for the language I’m afraid.
- Comment on Het Pijnstillersparadijs: Europese Zelfbeheersing vs. Amerikaanse Pillenfeest 5 weeks ago:
In my Dutch social circle it is indeed, but don’t ask me why. Personally I dislike Ibuprofen, it always makes me feel queasy and upsets my stomach.
- Comment on US Democracy 1 month ago:
Across all states, more people voted for him than for Harris.
I never said otherwise.
Unless you’re arguing that electoral college votes should be redistributed in a way that ensures the winner will always be a Democrat…
No, I’m saying that your system needs to be fixed so every vote has the same weight, that’s all. The fact that the term ‘popular vote’ exists at all is the flaw. Who won this year is irrelevant to the argument.
- Comment on US Democracy 1 month ago:
Why? Trump won fair and square this year, but that doesn’t mean your system isn’t flawed. Votes from certain states still carry less weight due to improperly distributed electors. Same happened with Gore Vs Bush by the way.

I’m most certainly not. Oh look, time for The Two Minutes of Hate already. 📺
- Comment on Realistically... How fucked is the US? 1 month ago:
That’s funny, I could have sworn it was Eurasia last year. I must be mistaken.
- Comment on US Democracy 1 month ago:
The majority voted for the candidate I don’t like. That means democracy is broken.
Don’t worry, the US democracy was already broken. That became painfully clear when Trump started whining about not winning the popular vote when he was elected the first time. Being able to lose while having the support of the majority of voters is proof enough:
Hillary: 65,853,625 votes Trump: 62,985,106 votes
Not every vote has the same weight, which is just completely bonkers and proof that your archaic system is due for a retrofit. Let’s just hope it won’t get chucked away entirely in the coming years.
- Comment on Anon sets a trap 4 months ago:
Are they? I do consider scum like Trump, Musk, Putin and fascists like them below me. Although admittedly they hardly qualify as people.

Well, at some point friction will start to become a relevant factor.
- Comment on Elden Ring Player to Sue FromSoftware Over High Game Difficulty 4 months ago:
Soulslike games only frustrate me immensely. I don’t mind a challenge, but when a game starts to feel more like work than hobby I’ll pass. So Elden Ring has never been on my wishlist, but I applaud those who have the motivation to git gud and persevere.
To each their own, research a bit before you buy something and accept that you might sometimes buy a game that doesn’t suit you. Mistakes and wrong decisions happen, that’s life.

RIP my LG robovac. Dutifully cleaning and mapping my house without having any kind of wireless connection ability whatsoever. Until it mistook my stair for just another dark corner. 😭

That does depend on the cheese, ricotta and mozzarella for example do contain lactose (enough to cause me quite some discomfort unfortunately). And processed stuff which shouldn’t be allowed to be called cheese may contain amounts that spell instant doom for the guts of the lactase deficient.
- Comment on And they say English is bad 5 months ago:
This doesn’t even faintly resemble German, so I doubt that.
- Comment on And they say English is bad 5 months ago:
So good job by the dutch? Yes, if this was Dutch. It isn’t though, looks like Afrikaans to me.

Nah. But I would recommend not trying to go for orange next you you try the vending machine. You might end up with lemon-lime.
- Comment on God of War Ragnarök will require a PSN account to play on PC 6 months ago:
Thanks, I know my way around the high seas should the need arise. But I can’t play every game out there anyway, so as long as I can get my gaming needs satisfied through non-shittified legal means I prefer that.
- Comment on God of War Ragnarök will require a PSN account to play on PC 6 months ago:
Well, another game I won’t be playing in that case. Fortunately my backlog is large enough to keep me busy for the next couple of years, so I feel no need to play every new title. But still: my wallet thanks Sony for making the choice for me.
- Comment on Multiple displayport monitors setup 6 months ago:
Also keep in mind that there are limits that depend on the resolution(s) you want to use. Don’t expect to be able to have a monitor @ 4K in your chain for example. displayport.org/…/driving-multiple-displays-from-… has a table with some examples of resolutions and the corresponding maximum number of monitors you can add to your chain.

So you think the staff has some sort of plot…

But it gave you lemon-lime?
- Comment on Oxygen 7 months ago:
I prefer the IUPAC name: Oxidane. Terrible stuff, it’s even used as an industrial solvent and yet we are exposed to it every single day of our lives!
- Comment on The PlayStation 2 7 months ago:
Sony forced the studio behind Helldivers 2 to make a PSN account obligatory after the game launched. That’s a pretty crappy move because PSN is not available in roughly 120 countries, so if you live in one of those you can suddenly not play your game anymore. And Sony hasn’t got the best reputation when it comes to securing and selling their user’s data, so players are pretty upset and vocal about this.
But I would say that present day Sony’s dick moves do not really fit in a topic about PS2.

I just ruined a whole bunch of people’s days with 2 names.
Well, let me add something to that, just to make the day even worse:

Yeah, but who would want to wear plutonium rings or necklaces?🤔

I most certainly would if I owned a nuclear reactor.

For $250000 I’m totally fine with him showing me his penis. Unfortunately I think he won’t be interested now that consent is given though. ☹️
- Comment on Does middle name on plane ticket gave to match passport? 7 months ago:
My surname contains spaces. I’ve yet to encounter an airline that is able to handle that properly, so my last name on a ticket never matches my passport name. Either parts are missing, or they just print it as a single word. Never given me issues, so I doubt a truncated middle name is going to pose a problem.
