Ahh, so it’s like they’re reading from the order/prescription, and say “ok he needs pregabalin - tick - and it’s 300mgs - tick - and it’s hard capsules - tick”, or something to that effect?

- Comment on Liz Truss to launch her own ‘uncensorable’ social media platform 2 weeks ago:
Is it so she can say repugnant things about minorities and spread conspiracy theories about matters of public health, or is she actually concerned about Turkey’s ability to influence bsky into denying access to individuals for political reasons?
I’m going to go out on a limb and assume she didn’t even mention Turkey in her ‘talk’.

- Comment on purpose 4 weeks ago:
We’ve successfully extinctified hundreds of species through our very excellent human-centric activities. I’ve yet to see any environmental fallout from it. Where are the secondary and tertiary extinctions of the animals that depended on the first lot we rubbed out? Where are the corpses left in the wake of the dodo’s disappearance? Big Environmental Science™ won’t tell you, because they can’t. They’re shills and liars, all of 'em. Rich elites who make bank on selling textbooks at a 1,200% markup.
Who’s up for starting a truthseeker podcast with me?

- Comment on Mozilla is working on new Thunderbird "Pro" email offerings and Thundermail 5 weeks ago:
I support the general idea, but I hope they don’t go the MuseScore route and start adding popup ads in the free program for pro/paid elements. MuseScore literally has popup ads now. Insanity.
- Comment on Hillary Clinton: How Much Dumber Will This Get? 5 weeks ago:
Hillary is so hated on all sides that her saying ‘drinking water is vital to survival’ would cause just about everyone to consider, if only for a brief moment, crimping their taps shut.
Her mocking the Trump syndicate for mishandling classified and sensitive information is pretty insane. As much as the “but her emails!” crowd are stupid marks, her private email server was probably worse (from a national security perspective) than accidentally CCing an Atlantic journo into an airstrike discussion. It’s all awful, don’t get me wrong, but Hillary needs to find something else to do with her time.

- Comment on If I use winrar to compress 80gb of tv and movies. Then can I compress it further by making it an iso? 1 month ago:
If you want to compress video files, you’ll need to reencode them. Maybe using something like HEVC (High Efficiency Video Codec). But for 80GB of videos, you’ll be there for a while and probably won’t shrink them enough to be worth it. It would likely take less time to simply re-download the files later, even with a mediocre internet connection. In practical terms, you won’t get that 80GB to be any smaller.
ISOs don’t compress anything, as far as I know, or at least not by default. I think they’re basically just a container.
To reencode your videos, you can use the free HandBrake.

Tried searching YouTube for “fireflies” to watch them in action. 99.9% of the results are music, podcasts and political channels using the term. Think I saw 2 videos of actual fireflies on the first page of results 😆

- Comment on We're remaking Morrowind as a Skyrim mod. Here's a charity livestream we held on the weekend. 2 months ago:
This will be my first experience of Morrowind, the original is just way too old for me to try getting into now. I’m a Philistine, I know, but I need a modern UI and interface and UX and all that jazz. Skyrim is pretty old at this point too, but it still holds up in all the important ways. So, I shall wait for the release of Skywind! (Could probably have phrased that in a slightly less flatulent way…)

- Comment on Just another person I let down in life 2 months ago:
I got caught in a scam last year, but luckily I realised what was happening before any damage could be done. But during the scam, the guy (who was pretending to be my bank) heard me tell him how much was in my account. It was like £100, give or take. No savings, no other accounts. He knew I was on disability benefits. He had this info at the beginning of the conversation, and he was talking to me for 45 minutes before he gave up. For £100. I wanted so badly to say to him “you saw that I had 100 quid to my name, and you still tried to steal it from me?” 😆 These people have gotta be sociopaths.

- Comment on Kingdom Come Dev Believes Unreal Is Ill-Suited For Open World Games, And Is Slowing Down Work On Witcher 4 2 months ago:
I’ve heard nothing but negative things about Unreal. Why is it used so widely? Is Epic basically paying devs to do so with lenient royalty fees or whatever?
- Comment on Anon fixes Super Mario Bros 3 months ago:
I know OP is joking (at least I hope he is), but it reminded me of this thread about Soulslikes:
old.reddit.com/…/separating_difficulty_from_drudg…
Time-wasting respawns/progress loss seems like a very blunt tool with which to motivate the player to keep playing. It’s some 1988 arcade coin-op shit that we really ought to leave in the past.

- Comment on alpha 5 months ago:
I’ve heard this debunk a lot over the years, and I don’t disbelieve it, but is it not the case that one or two animals (wolves or otherwise) in a group will be the “bosses” or something close to being dominant over the others? Is all of that internal power struggling we see in groups/families of animals not really what it seems? Or is the “alpha” stuff different from that? Or does it only apply to wolves, and “alphas” do exist in other animal species?
Yours, confused and uneducated,
