You can’t put a portal on a moving platform, it has to stop moving first, so neither can happen… Unless the moving surface is a celestial body at least the size of The Moon, I guess?
- Comment on What is negative voltage? 2 weeks ago:
Generally, my understanding, is there is a “flow” and a negative reading would be flowing the other direction. Thinking about a multimeter - it usually expects flow from red to black, but if you swap those around, you get a negative number as it flows from black to red.
The actual number is usually (not always) the important part - the potential difference between the two ends or something like that. That difference is going to behave similarly no matter which direction, but we assigned it numbers like that to make talking about voltages easier.
- Comment on Non-stick pans? 2 weeks ago:
It’s also tough because generally search algorithms have absolutely shit the bed the in the last few years and very often just flat out ignore parts of your search and just start showing you generic carbon steel pans, which have to be seasoned and maintained very similarly to cast iron…
- Comment on Non-stick pans? 2 weeks ago:
Have heard really good things about nitrided carbon steel pans and titanium pans - very nearly as good as teflon but without the coating to flake off into your food.

That’s a harsh take, we are just random people on the internet, not the writers of SNL… :/

Pretty sure that was a joke about 'merica going to war over oil. Like crude oil, not canola…
- Comment on If someone was shrunk down to the size of an ant would they be able to make a little ant sized campfire with the same principles? Does it scale like that? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know specifically about fire but I think the square-cube law plays a significant factor in the idea that alien life would be similar in scale to humans.
- Comment on Would it be better to just have a lot of society be underground? 3 weeks ago:
And what, just break our treaty with the dwarves and end a peace that has lasted a thousand years?? We get the top 10 feet, they get everything deeper. I won’t go to war in the dark over a housing shortage we created ourselves through greed.

As an aside, I don’t think you actually have fast internet - or whatever you are downloading doesn’t have any mirrors even remotely close to you.
Assuming the GB is Gibibytes (worst case scenario), that is 730,144 Megabits (not bytes). With a 100 Megabit connection (lower end of what most ISPs offer that I’ve seen and still call it “high-speed”) that should be done in about 2 hours. In 8 hours at 100 Mb speed you should be able to download over 300 Gigs of data.
85GB in 8-12 hours is somewhere between 17 and 25 Mbps, which would be stressed out by 1080p video streaming.
- Comment on If Steam were to shut down tomorrow how much money would you have lost in total on games / DLC ?? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve had and been using steam since 2003… I really don’t want to know what that number is. And I am also convinced someone is collecting this data point for nefarious purposes, because its 2026 and everything is being used for nefarious purposes. Including this comment.
- Comment on The red bull guy who jumped from space what was going on with his body when him and his suit broke the sound barrier? 4 weeks ago:
I think his body was falling at the time.
- Comment on When will the all white home with grey floors trend be over? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t think we get away from that until we also get away from looking at the “resale value” of our homes and cars. We can’t enjoy them while we have them because we constantly have to worry about either “turning a profit” or “mitigating a loss”.
:(

Worried about health. Planned to eat nothing but pie for 2 days.
Wat?

Toxic like that fucking Algae?
- Comment on Me after Jerboa announced it is ending support 5 weeks ago:
That isn’t so much “Boost is spyware” as it is “ads are spyware”. Boost is either paid or supported by ads, either can be enough reason to not use the app, but it doesn’t make the app itself spyware.

Any major combat movement is going to make her bits show.
She is an alien, so maybe she doesn’t have bits like humans.

Basically. Turn the S logo into a cleavage window and it’s Powergirl.

They’d be really upset if they weren’t monolingual.

Where’s that community meme when you need it…
- Comment on An 82-year-old YouTuber grandma was raided by police and SWATs during her live stream last night where she plays Minecraft to raise money for her grandsons cancer. Authorities brought 20 police cars 2 months ago:
The news story linked said that the scammer told the police she was shot and killed.

It’s kinda weird how society just decided we were only going to teach one generation of people how the fuck to use a computer and no one else gets to know.
- Comment on try out my AI agent bro, it'll change your life bro, I swear... 2 months ago:
And they didn’t even give it the same handle to show any kind of continuity that might at least allude to all those handles being representative of a shovel… Love the meme making fun of AI has a “Made with AI” badge on it… wtf are we doing?

Additionally, if you get the angle right the other way you can knock geosynchronous satellites out of orbit. You could literally fuck DirecTV satellites.
- Comment on Does anyone know about pope Leo's past in Chicago? Was he a little hell raiser who went straight? Kind of hard to believe someone from Chytown leaves without cause a little shannagans? 3 months ago:
Wait, so, are you just assuming every person that lives in Chicago is doing at least a little crime? wtf is this?
- Comment on 3 months ago:
What “better right for consumers” are you advocating for? The false claim that Steam bars anyone on their platform from selling cheaper is easily proven false by looking at any of the numerous websites that track prices of games from various storefronts and is the key point used by Epic’s legal team to try to garner support to break up steam in order to gain market share themselves and make the industry markedly worse.
Your post is thinly veiled “Valve bad, give money to Epic instead”, whether you realize it or not. So what is your plan to make the industry actually better?
- Comment on 3 months ago:
True, which is why it is so easy to tell which one you are doing. :)
- Comment on Steam On Linux Use Skyrocketed In March - More Than Double The macOS Gaming Marketshare 3 months ago:
There is open source software to run a stream deck, OBS is native (as you mentioned), and my Scarlett audio interface Just Works™. I’m not some big streamer or anything, but I dabble and nothing I could do on Windows is missing in Linux. Even my wacom tablet just works by plugging it in.
When I made the switch, I spent the money on a new ssd and literally pulled the windows one out and had it stashed away something like an “in case of emergency, break glass” type of thing. I realized recently I hadn’t touched that in 4 years and decided to format it and install Cachy to try that out on my laptop; everyone just won’t shup up about how good it is so I figured I should give it a chance.

You’re just simping for a different billionaire out here regurgitating Tim Sweeney’s talking points verbatim…
