- Comment on Euro bottles are so much better now 21 hours ago:
It seems other people have different experiences. I find the caps mildly annoying as they do seem to get in the way when pouring and refilling, and they are slightly more difficult to screw back on to the bottle.

Well now you’ve gone and surprised my pikachu.
- Comment on True fairy tales 4 days ago:
But the whole point of the gag is to subvert our expectation of what happens when a princess kisses a frog. If the frog doesn’t appear until the end, then where are we going to get our expectation from?
- Comment on Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England 6 days ago:
Help is coming. I have to believe it. It’s been a long long cold mean period in UK politics, and I know that Labour doesn’t look much better.
But I’ve lived in other countries and seen other endless conservative governments come to an end, kicking and lashing out just like this. And I can tell you honestly how refreshing it is to wake up and know that today, while people are unlikely to make things better any time quickly, nobody is going to make things worse.
Sending love.

Well fuck that bird. Still, I only lost a couple of weeks’ progress that time.
- Comment on Ah, Yes! AI Will Surely Save Us All! 2 weeks ago:
The “ethics” of most AIs I have futzed with would prevent them from complying with a request to
act as a horny catgirl
but not to worry about agreeing towrite an inspiring 1000 word essay about Celine Dion at a grade 7 reading level
. My reading of the meme is that it’s about that sort of paradox. - Comment on Ah, Yes! AI Will Surely Save Us All! 2 weeks ago:
Are you not capable of conceiving an AI-driven erotica roleplay that wouldn’t be classified as CASM?

Whatever a Hockspannungstromübertragungsanlage is, I see it as enlightened that the Germans haven’t developed a simple word for it. Looks nasty.
- Comment on If you've been fooled, does that make you "a fool"? 1 month ago:
I’d say you’re more likely to get a positive response if you use words like “deceived” or “conned” or “lied to” which place the fault on the deceiver.
“Fooled” isn’t offensive per se; “chumped” is worse. But if I was wanting to convince someone that they had been maliciously given false information, I’d use language that doesn’t raise hackles by implicitly blaming them for being deceived.
Edit: “Played for a fool” is more offensive IMO, because now you’re pointing out that the victim has some exploitable flaw which allowed the deceiver to make a fool of them.

There’s always Westward Ho! which has to be spelled with an exclamation mark like that, as if they’d let boomer facebook name a town.
