You don’t have a separate 100% anonymous steam account to use in case of having to fake your death? Your loss tbh…
- Comment on Larian Started Work on Baldur's Gate 3 DLC, Then Canceled It: "The Studio Was Elated" 1 month ago:
In what world is paying 40usd for a game and 3x 30usd for 500h of entertainment not a good deal? (not particularly aimed at you, but at dlc haters in general)
I am glad when they release a dlc. I get more great content. They get some more financial support.
I am 100% against cheap cash grabs. I am 100% pro multiple well made extentions for a game that allow me to support the studio.
- Comment on Larian Started Work on Baldur's Gate 3 DLC, Then Canceled It: "The Studio Was Elated" 1 month ago:
Just a few dlc/expansion packs that were totally worth their money
All Rimworld expansions. Diablo 3 reaper of souls/ D2 lord of destruction The witcher Ballad of gay tony Star craft ones Red alert yuris revenge Horizon zero dawn frozen wilds
Etc… There are good expansions that are totally worth their money and add to the overall game.
That being said, I’m not a huge dlc fan and rarely spend money on them if they don’t really add to the game. More partial to spend on dlc for smaller studio games rather than large ones.

Considering how lazy I am, there is no way my brain would bother with all the little details I see everywhere when I go out. When I’m at a busy station or crossing and I literally see thousands of different people walk by, not a single repeat face? Proof enough for me this is real tbh.
(and if you go the simulation way, who cares? If a simulation can give billions of ppl their own lives, feelings, dreams and hopes, it does not matter in the slightest to the ppl living in it that it’s real or a simulation)
- Comment on Anon likes bikes 4 months ago:
Nothing stops you from commuting by bike. My best friend commutes over 40km by bike every day. Due to eternal traffic jams he’s not even much slower than going by car, he also almost gets to go in a straight line rather than following highways. Get out of that US centric mindset and realize a lot more is possible by bike than you might think.

Watch alone 2usd? Watch together with the sign writer 10usd? I mean, the more the merrier I guess?
Or am I misunderstanding this?
- Comment on The fall of Firefox: Mozilla's once-popular web browser slides into irrelevance 4 months ago:
Yup, I know. So until Firefox has native lvl gestures, I won’t switch :)
- Comment on The fall of Firefox: Mozilla's once-popular web browser slides into irrelevance 4 months ago:
Nope. Doesn’t allow gestures on internal pages. Eg new tabs, menu, settings, etc… It doesn’t work in the entire browser
- Comment on The fall of Firefox: Mozilla's once-popular web browser slides into irrelevance 4 months ago:
The day Firefox gets native mouse gestures is the day I swap. Until then will continue to be a very happy Vivaldi user.

He certainly tries to be correct and research his stuff. I would argue his stuff is just as reliable as most well regarded science communicators

Install a 3rd party launcher?
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 4 months ago:
This should be higher up… This whole topic is such a big nothing burger. OP and everyone jumping on the Google sucks bandwagon most likely just suck at using a search engine or run into shitty AI articles (which you can’t really blame on your search engine of choice either…)
I personally have 0 issues to find whatever I’m looking for in 3-4 searches at most. Skill issue rather than algorithm issue imo.
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 4 months ago:
Try to hum the song to Google assistant. Chances are it’ll get it right with just 3-5 seconds of humming. L2use the tools at your disposal tbh
- Comment on If only it was like that 4 months ago:
Tbh, in summer I sleep with the airco on 27c. Where I live summer gets a nice and toasty 30c+ 24/7 @ 80%+ humidity. 25c feels amazing compared to that.
Before I moved here, I’d also have said 20c was ideal though :)
- Comment on If only it was like that 4 months ago:
Same for c, but at half the scale tbh. (with a bit of a stretch to the imagination)
50 is very hot. 0 is cold. 25c is perfect.
- Comment on Thank you 🖖 6 months ago:
Maybe take the advice from the other posters over mine :). The original series is very dated by now. You really have to move star trek or old stuff to enjoy it tbh :)
- Comment on Thank you 🖖 6 months ago:
You heathen
- Comment on Thank you 🖖 6 months ago:
Right at the beginning. Chronological. Don’t skip anything, even the shit episodes
If you can’t stomache the old stuff, any of the new trek series are pretty darn good to be honest. I’m especially fond of Strange New Worlds. It captures the adventure of the week style well, just like the old series.

Lol, did you really compare same sex attraction to pedophiles there? “I don’t understand both”… Wtf dude.
- Comment on What games have the best mining/smelting/forging components? 7 months ago:
If you can handle breaking the Geneva code, rimworld. If you add mods, the sky becomes the limit tbh. Only your imagination will stop you.

Fuck that…
I have a little jumping spider (about 1cm or so) in my house that I just leave around to do its thing, but that’s the limit of my spider tolerance. Anything more than that, and I wouldn’t be able to sleep anymore…

Nobody stops you you know… What an incredibly dumb comment…
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 8 months ago:
Again, I’d blame society for that, not humanity.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the actual power in the world lies in the hand of just a fraction of percent of the people. Those asshole ruin it for everyone else.
Doesn’t mean the average human is evil.
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 8 months ago:
Live long and prosper!
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 8 months ago:
Thank you for being much more eloquent than me.
The average troll wouldn’t be an asshole in real life. They’d likely just be an average bloke like us all that lost theirselves in online anonimity.
Time and time again we see that in many disasters the majority of people in the affected community come together and help each other tremendously.
There is ofcourse always rotten apples and exceptions. That doesn’t take away from the fact that people are inherintly good to their fellow human.
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 8 months ago:
Fair enough :)
I just don’t see how believing the worst in your fellow human can encourage you to improve things.
- Comment on Reddit is a shithole 8 months ago:
I hate that pov so much.
Humanity is fantastic, wonderful, loving and amazing. It’s not a shit hole.
I’d argue society is really broken in some places, but not humanity.
As for Social media: it just brings out some dark side in some people. The vast majority of people on social media behave. It’s just that the outliers catch the attention.
- Comment on Is Windows 11 decent yet? 8 months ago:
How? If you just install windows software and follow the installer, it just works no? I’ve never ran into issues using software written for windows. There might be issues with the software itself, but I’ve never had issues with the installation procedure.
- Comment on Is Windows 11 decent yet? 8 months ago:
Windows just works tbh. If you don’t want to do anything out of the ordinary, it does exactly what it says on the box.
