- Comment on bird based storage 1 day ago:
I love unhinged data storage methods. My favorite is storing data in internet server pings to australia: Harder Drive
A close runner up goes to Can you store a Pokemon silver save INSIDE of Pokemon Emerald? Adef made his own video on it in I Turned Pokemon Emerald into a Flash Drive
Anyone have more? This is like my favorite genre of internet nonsense

Less audio setups, more what they’re watching. Worst one for me lately was netflix’s Castlevania. I love the voice acting, but some characters are borderline whispering at all times

In other words, its fortunate the spambots are such overpriced junk when they could easily not be.
The ones you notice are overpriced junk. I’m convinced that this is on purpose, to make us less suspicious of the more convincing bots

What does that have to do with the production of new paper? Deforestation remains an ever increasing problem
- Comment on I'm doing my part! 1 week ago:
Yeah, I’m going to update my comment. Metal recycling is genuinely good, and recycling makes an enormous impact on the production of new metal
- Comment on I'm doing my part! 1 week ago:
True, that honor belongs solely to metal. Glass is mostly recyclable, though most types of it that aren’t bottles will just be thrown in the trash. Paper is in theory recyclable, but putting that in recycle bins is basically just as effective as putting plastic in. Neither of those actually helps as long as we’re producing more and more paper and more and more glass every year. The only thing that helps is reducing production.

Recycling does literally nothing, like it’s actually 0% helpful, as long as we’re producing more plastic than ever before every single year. We’re closing in on 500 million tonnes of plastic produced —not total, produced—annually. Every single person can put every single piece of plastic in the recycling bin, and we’ll still have more plastic than existed 50 years ago. There are many things that individual action can accomplish, and this is not one of them. We need legislation for this.

- Comment on Is the cure to male loneliness shitposting? 1 week ago:
There are three of us: me, the person who posts takes I agree with, and the person who posts takes I don’t agree with. Sometimes they share accounts so it’s real hard to tell which one I’m talking to at any given time

Anyone feel like arguing about D&D rules? I basically have the PHB memorized, and I would love to explain the difference betweena melee weapon attack and an attack made with a melee weapon

Tf are you talking about? They’re comparing 4chan users to shit-slinging monkeys. How did you misread it that bad???

I’m going to hell in a handbasket, and I’ll have good company too
Cause if I was so bad, then there’s no need to be sad
Cause everybody else will be there too (including you!)

Not stalking, this is the first time I believe I’ve ever interacted with you. Not commenting on the meme’s topic, but I am commenting on the topic of this particular thread. I don’t think this is harassment either, I was just pointing out a true thing that was relevant to the discussion. Ideally this is the last time I ever interact with you

You can’t even help but manipulate votes in your response to a vote manipulation accusation. This is like showing up drunk to a DUI hearing

For real, it was legitimately a fun game. I still love the Interceptor. I should redownload it and take some pics before the servers die
- Comment on Anthem servers shutting down January 12, 2026 3 weeks ago:
My only gripe is that the game gave me all kinds of freedom choose my character’s backstory, but I had to treat Owen like he was some kinda moron. Motherfucker let me give him my Colossus, I never use it and he will be impervious in it
- Comment on Anon hates reddit 3 weeks ago:
Reddit is populated by Bill Maher flavored liberals, 4chan is populated by Asmondgold flavored cockroaches, Tildes is populated by approximately seven users (but they’re all pretty cool), and Lemmy users are smart with tech and stupid with everything else

- Comment on We live wasted lives 4 weeks ago:
I 100% agree, I’m just saying that life today is much more fulfilling for the average person than it was for, like, the average 13th century French peasant. The fact that we have access to this feeling of ennui in the first place is thanks to our safe and comfortable lifestyle.
Shit could be better, and we should fight to make it so. I just think we should also appreciate that our quality of life is nearly unrivaled throughout history, and even the modern world.
- Comment on We live wasted lives 4 weeks ago:
The fulfilling part is using that income to buy a telescope and admire the beauty of the cosmos
Or internet porn. Both of these are things our ancestorsnl couldn’t have even dreamed of, and would kill to have access to

I use the em-dash a lot. It’s not just about the presence of one, the issue is that LLMs know they exist but don’t know where they go. It’s sort of like a semicolon, which goes where neither a comma nor a period feel right. An em-dashes simply goes where neither comma nor period nor semicolon feels right
On my keyboard, I just click the button on the bottom left to see punctuation, and then long-press the hyphen

You wanted to find “KSP ssto tutorial?” Are you sure you wouldn’t rather rewatch a Technology Connections video you watched last week?
- Comment on Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hike 1 month ago:
Hot take: gamepass is preferable to a digital storefront. Any game you “buy” digitally is only somewhat less temporary than gamepass. At least gamepass doesn’t fool you into thinking you own the games you’re playing
