- Comment on If Trump wins the election thru fraud how can the democrats refute it and prove they won? Or will it just be like another Jan 6 and four years of whining like Trump? 1 month ago:
I’ve been saying this exact same thing. Trump is a raging moron and I fear the intelligent demagogue that follows him more than I fear a second trump presidency (although a second trump term might guarantee the former)
- Comment on Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future? 2 months ago:
I’ve got to check these recs out

I’ve never actually seen, just the references. Guess it’s worth a go

Where have you seen this? I’ve been looking for some stories like it
- Comment on DarkPattern.games - a website that rates mobile games for their "dark patterns" 2 months ago:
Exactly. I’m not blaming Google entirely, though I do condemn them for being an example of what emerges from a system who’s only incentive is maximum profit.

Cool cool cool. The dark games list is basically all the play store recommendations

In high school math class we got paired up for a worksheet and instead of doing any math we spent the hour listing the first 150 Pokemon in numerical order. Been chasing that high ever since

Right?

Sorry, I’m not going to participate if you’re going to be abusive.

Then why are you trying so hard to explain yourself?
- Comment on Maybe this is better for everyone 3 months ago:
This is precisely the circlejerking mentioned in the meme. Whether true or not, the community presents itself as unwelcoming and self-aggrandizing. These are not traits that easily convince people to listen to the cause.
- Comment on Thousands are playing Valve's unrevealed shooter Deadlock, a blend of Team Fortress 2 and Dota with Bioshocky skyrails 4 months ago:
Agreed. But also, it’s a good way to communicate complex ideas quickly like Darmak and Jalaad. And many novel ideas come from “What if (blank) did (thing) but differently?” Like a huge portion of art history is just artists doing something another artist did in a different way.

Pretty sure Kars would only have sex with his own reflection, if he wasn’t a stone cold lady killer

Guilty as charged. I’ve played hundreds of hours of souls games and all I know about the lore is that souls are money

Ooo, thinking about putting graphene on this phone.
But reading between the lines, it kind of seems like commercial adware has pretty much drowned out most of the visible malware
- Comment on Shitpost 6 months ago:
Now that I’m thinking about the good old days of virus pop-ups and limewire cancers, has the presence of malware changed that much? Or it is less visible due to mobile architecture and pop-up blockers?

Nevermind then, carry on
- Comment on Scarlett Johansson’s Statement About Her Interactions With Sam Altman 6 months ago:
There’s too much money in it for that to happen. Chatgpt voice is the perfect ad platform. It’s a direct connection to user personalities and habits, and it can directly suggest things in the course of what feels like normal conversation, all while being engineered to light up our ape brains in ways normal ads can’t. It’s a matter of time before they start selling product placement.

Talk about a flash from the past, amirite

If you really wanted to be through you’d start at a point, integrate out along dr for a line, then integrate in a circle through dtheta to derive the area before doing the rest

I found a set of Makita tools for 60% off last year and now I’m Makita battery dependent for the rest of my life

- Comment on What the actual f*** is this Rockstar? 1 year ago:
I fucked around with dozens of these trying to get my steam linked email changed, only to find out it’s virtually impossible. Then I sent an email to the support line explaining why I’m never buying another Rockstar game.
