- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 1 day ago:
Dude, Octodad in the random arm-leg mode is so fucking funny. My wife and I had so much fun with that too back the game is so short!
- Comment on I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people? 1 day ago:
Shameless: “am I a fucking joke to you?”
Since the wealthy fund the shit, anything to do with the commoner is portrayed as trashy, just above literal refuse with regard to usefulness, while the wealthy are portrayed as the righteous and just, with money to fix all the problems they face and any moral failings related to them is the result of something outside their wealth.
- Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity 6 days ago:
Corporations have always hated labor because it’s always their highest cost. It’s why layoffs are the first to be used, and usually the largest way, to cover up bad profits for shareholders. Anything that allows a corporation to cut labor costs, even at the expense of their entire service offering was bound to be adopted as thoroughly as possible, regardless of public sentiment. They keep hoping more data will be the key to get AI to replace the cost of having to pay workers!
Thing is, last I read, humans have not produced enough written works (in all of human history) to make AI good enough to replace labor.
- Comment on The Circle of iLife 1 week ago:
One way, pre-recorded beeper, more like it.
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 weeks ago:
I always signal in roads but rarely in parking lots or driveways unless I’m trying to let others know I’m waiting for a parking spot.
- Comment on carlos for scale 3 weeks ago:
Carlos is a master of deception!
- Comment on carlos for scale 3 weeks ago:
I really hope Carlos is getting paid to work there. Bet he has abs of steel, though! Dudes rockin’ washboard abs but is far too modest to show them off.
- Comment on Since militaries are authoritarian, even in democratic countries; What would a military of a stateless/anarchist society look like? 4 weeks ago:
You mock, but like most seafarers, they had a strict code of conduct that was pretty much the law of the
landsea. - Comment on The internet of things is truly a wonder. 😝 by David August 5 weeks ago:
Fuck, I woke up my wife watching this. All the chaos happening at different angles and random cuts to other views had me unable to stifle my laughter. Bravo! 😂
- Comment on ONE OF US 5 weeks ago:
It’s not their fault. They are full and content!
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 1 month ago:
There’s that old thought experiment on who someone would take out of time travel existed. I used to think that Hitler would be a good target. However, seeing how many of the current issues started because of something Reagan gutted, reduced, or schemed to disrupt or remove makes him my new target. So much of our current shituation can be directly tied back to Reagan.
- Comment on Good morning I choose creativity and recycling. 2 months ago:
I thought this might have been a post from @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world for a hot second.
- Comment on 200 UK Companies Permanently Move To 4-Day Work Week Without Loss Of Pay 2 months ago:
Best shift I ever worked was 4x10s overnight. I would do it again in a heartbeat if my current employer allowed it.
Not sure about others, but I always have a burst of motivation about 2-hrs after lunch. Usually, this mental focus is shattered by the ending work day. If I could work two extra hours, complete the focused thing I’m working on, and have a whole other weekend day why would I not take it?
- Comment on What advice would you give to your younger self? 3 months ago:
Invest in Google. Buy an island. Install automated turrets. Don’t worry about saving for retirement, cause it won’t matter when society collapses.
- Comment on At your service 4 months ago:
We live on, through you!
- Comment on You don't need to answer this 4 months ago:
That’s why the ruling class pushes all the wedge issues and divisiveness they do. If we could talk to each other, we’d find we had more in common than otherwise expected. I thought the recent surge in union activity could have continued to a general strike across the nation. The rich know what unites us and actively seems to keep us fractured so we don’t realize our combined power.
Maybe this dude will be a catalyst in a revolution that sets these disgusting, wealthy leeches in their place.
- Comment on BACK IT UP 5 months ago:
Start growing your own food, boil rain water for clean water, and avoid close contact with others for the next four years then? Can’t wait to hear about all the cases of preventable diseases, contaminated foods, and new, deadly viruses we get introduced to once these clowns take over…
- Comment on OldUnreal team publishes installers for downloading Unreal Gold and Unreal Tournament from archive.org, with Epic Games's approval! 5 months ago:
UNSTOPPABLE!!
- 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? 5 months ago:
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
- Comment on Grr Windows 5 months ago:
To turn away from the “go hard onto Linux,” tropes, try Windows Update Blocker (WUB). I’ve been using it to pick when my machine, as well as friends and families machines, update. Every month or so, you need to turn updates back on by using it and updating the OS, but it can be scripted to enable/disable updates at any time, if you don’t feel like thinking about it. It not only blocks if but protects from reenabling updates by that fucking medic service that will try to turn it back on when the machine is idle.
- Comment on Seeking feedback: how should lemm.ee move forward with external images? (related to frequent broken images) 6 months ago:
Thank you for running a great instance. No notes. Except it would be nice if you could set the limit on how long a proxies image remains available. It would be nice if there was a time limit that could be shortened based on time. Or a combination of the first and second option.
- Comment on What's the term for someone that likes Jesus of Nazareth, but doesn't identify with church, religious dogma, or whatever? 6 months ago:
Isn’t this just the Golden Rule? I’ve tried to live like this everyday for 20 years, but it can be difficult in this day and age. Most people don’t think like that. It’s easy to hold the door for people or say thank you, but it’s hard when you don’t receive the same courtesy. Jokes on them, though, cause they’ll burn in hell!

In jail without bond, currently.

- Comment on End nuclear fusion! 6 months ago:
Enough to make me never want to even attempt such a thing, myself! But I did know if the helium ratio stuff because of it, so it’s still educational content.
- Comment on End nuclear fusion! 6 months ago:
I’ve seen enough of YouTuber, Scary Interesting, to believe that either word would work!
- Comment on Why is there so much hype around artificial intelligence? 7 months ago:
It amazed people when it first launched and capitalists took that to mean replace all their jobs with AI. Where we wanted AI to make shit jobs easier, they used it to replace whole swaths of talent across the industry’s. Recent movies read like they were written almost entirely by AI. Like when Cartman was a robot and kept giving out terrible movie ideas.

That would be pretty boss of you. Thanks for being helpful on the past and considering leaving that help available to all!

- Comment on Reddit Undeleted all my posts and comments 8 months ago:
On a plus side, maybe, if you choose to delete your comments and posts again, albeit slowly, would be to copy/paste the really useful shit to Lemmy. I say this because on unintended (or not) consequence of these actions is that posts from years ago, explaining the solution to a problem that still pops up now and then, doesn’t have the solution most of the time.
I don’t disagree with the sentiment or actions at all, just sucks when you find someone having the same issue you are, only to learn it’s on reddit and the solution to said problem was deleted.
- Comment on I just got out of the shower. what is with the product placement ? 8 months ago:
Haha the only thing they had to change between 2016 and now is replacing Pence with Vance and adding an exclamation point to the slogan.
…Holy shit… Is that why they picked Vance for VP? So they could save money on signs and shirts?
