Since you’re going to have to explain yourself anyway, may as well just do whatever you want and explain it to the court afterwards.
- Comment on Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales 1 day ago:
MS may not have invented it (although I’d argue they essentially did) but they did perfect it. That was the whole idea behind windows and IE, market share dominance at any cost.

My niece was highly Uber eats dependent. Got her an air fryer for Christmas and it literally changed her life. Sometimes people want better but don’t know how to get there

Take a picture of the shit and add it to the expense report. Make sure you notate that you did not keep the gift and instead rescinded ownership to your boss.
- Comment on 7 year old PC. CPU is getting WICKED hot (up to 100 C) while playing games. is there any software that can underclock/undervolt it? 1 week ago:
Same. I went all in on noctua and haven’t looked back. Just needs a a good dusting a few times a year to maintain peak performance.

Do you have an all-in-one liquid cooler on your CPU by any chance? Something like this Image
I’ve had one of these leak slow enough that after 7ish years the liquid evaporated and my CPU killed itself.
I had another fail the same way but I caught that one before the CPU failed.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week 1 week ago:
Manager: You’re right! AI Makes me as productive as half my team, so I’m firing half of them AND working a 4 day work week!

If you keep the weight they’ll be double right. If you lose the weight they’ll only be half right!

Corn dogs and chicken balls are calzones.
Scotch Eggs are salad.
I didn’t make the cube rule of food classification, I just enforce it blindly and with great fervor.

I find zoom calls to be much more helpful than in person. In person I have to bring my laptop, point to things, find a place where we can both sit, and probably send you code snippets over chat anyway, not to mention literally looking over your shoulder.
meatspace is deprecated, get over it corpos.

Absolutely false. Everyone I know with ecc ram would sell their shoes for more if they could.
- Comment on what is north? 4 weeks ago:
You can’t see radiation filling up a bird’s stomach. People are, ultimately, very bad about dealing with things we cannot see.
- Comment on what is north? 4 weeks ago:
Nah, op IS wrong. The “complaint” isn’t arguing grammar, it’s explicitly pointing out that there’s a very unhelpful couple of words in the sentence.
The sentence “I live north of Antarctica” gives you basically zero information but is perfectly grammatically correct.
The line may as well have been “The weddel sea, which is made of water,…”
- Comment on Can deliberate noise harassment still be a crime if it's done every day from 7:30 AM till 10:30-11:30 PM? 4 weeks ago:

- Comment on These Have Been Found All Across Ancient Rome (Nobody Knows Why) 5 weeks ago:
I can’t possibly fathom why a bunch of people all over would all have the same weird, seemingly useless object on them at roughly the same time period. It’s an impossible mystery.
- Comment on Anon has an unexpected day 5 weeks ago:
my favorites from Texas:
Buda -> “byou-duh” (byou as in beautiful) but NEVER “BooDah”. Occasionally you’ll hear “buttah”, but I’m sure those people are trolling
Bourne: Bernie
Bexar: Bear (Should be beHar, as in Harm, just like Texas is actually TeJas like the Ha in Hans.
D’Hanis: DaHennies, like “da pennies”
Weirdly most of the German places names are pronounced correctly, probably because they were founded by Germans who produced their names correctly for long enough that it stuck.
- Comment on ‘King of the Hill’ Revival First Details: Hank and Peggy Are Retired, Bobby’s a Dallas Chef, Dale Was Briefly Arlen’s Mayor and More 5 weeks ago:
Tons of Texas in-jokes too. One of the main characters was named Luanne Platter, which is the name of the dinner special at a restaurant called Luby’s in Texas (The LuAnn Platter). There’s still a few around, but they were a lot more prevalent back then.
Hank Hill’s job as a propane salesman is also kind of a joke. Cooking a brisket on propane, for example, is a sin. There’s even episodes where the family sneaks around his back to eat charcoal grilled burgers.
