• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AGI achieved 🤖⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I want an option to select Marvin the paranoid android mood: “there’s your answer, now if you could leave me to wallow in self-pitty”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I repair a lot of my stuff, but bear in mind repairability isn’t just ‘can I fix it’, but ‘can anyone’, which includes repair shops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pull to enter, you say?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is true and not just about ads. It’s called ‘sign blindness’.
  People often run on autopilot when doing things as basic as opening doors, and reading requires direct attention.
  It’s not (always) about being dumb or careless, it’s our nature.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No looky for you!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s so that you can pontificate on that tissue you left in your pocket as it dissolves into little bits of paper snot and gets stuck on everything

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rhubarb⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We make rhubarb cake using one from our garden. It’s delicious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Adobe turns subscription screw again, telling users to pay up or downgrade⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think that’s true, at least for companies.
  Industry standard or even company standard means you need a very critical reason to switch because doing so is very costly in ways that don’t really affect an individual or a small team.
  This is why large corps often still use decades old software that may be terrible by that point, but impossible to move away from.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oof⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah yes, the I suffered so should you argument

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Max Is Changing Its Name to (Get This!) HBO Max⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They wanted to feel the success of the twitter rebrand first-hand

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Accurate⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Future is not low prices, our future was sold out for a quick buck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The clueless people are out there among us⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do prefer English plugs. Euro can wear out or just not hold in as well if they’re cheaply made. Never ever had that issue with English ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Give an inch take an inch⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Constraints are amazing for creativity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When the world connected on Skype⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Icq was back, last i checked. You may even find your contacts there still, if not messages.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For all you inked people⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  An important attribute for people looking to join IT support or retail

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know that would solve everything anyway. Worst case, he’d become some kind of martyr.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If only we had a reason to upgrade.
  Instead, we have many reasons not to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon fixes Super Mario Bros⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It can be the only way to punish people in certain games.
  If there’s no punishment for failure, there’s no reason to respect any dangers the game presents.
  In Minecraft, what should happen if you walk north for an hour and die? If you respawn with your inventory, why not just do that again and die as a quick way to get back? Why even bother with equipment or food at that point? Suddenly, half the game mechanics have lost their meaning, and there’s a lot less to do for the player.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ADL defends Nazi salute⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Forgot? Why should he care? There appear to be no repercussions to his behaviour.
  Unfortunately, it seems these people can do whatever the hell they want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just read the first sentence, so without the full context, I understand that you’re exposing yourself as one?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank you for your service⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank god for the optional undo send I swear

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vibes based cooking⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Amount is the experience part. Hard, if not impossible, to estimate by smell alone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love my smart TV (From Mastodon) - Repost⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fucking ads on my tv home would be an instant refund, unbelievable.
  I got no ads on an lg oled, but it’s infuriatingly slow.

  Isponsorblock can be run on a local docker machine with the original youtube client to make the experience more bearable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't wash⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe that’s a myth. If you cook thoroughly, you don’t need to worry about bacteria. Why would it matter if its being moved around then?
  There sure are plenty of ‘under no circumstances’ articles and testimonials parroting each other.

  Washing removes the gooey protein film on the surface, which otherwise ends up cooking into a egg-white-like membrane.

  You can also wipe it with a paper towel to accomplish the same.
  You should, at the very least, always dry your chicken to allow the surface to brown properly. Otherwise you end up with the hospital patient pale white.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choosing pink is chaotic evil?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Death note but not cool

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choosing pink is chaotic evil?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That would destroy most places sewage systems lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon visits America⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s the other way around now, normal people can only afford the ultra-processed slop and nutrient-defficient fruits & veg.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have diarrhea and you hold it in will your body retain some of the water?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have diarrhoea, it may have been caused by bad food, something you may not want to be absorbing, which may be why the body is trying to purge it ASAP.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Frostpunk creators cancel "Project 8" and lay off staff amid concerns that "narrative-driven, story-rich games" don't sell⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah it’s depressing, I’m amazed we’re getting anything good at all by this point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon makes weed eggs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes my friend made this once and it was the most disgusting thing ever.
  Also so strong we’d have a shot and get knocked out.
  Could those two be related? We’ll never know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PEGI gives Balatro an 18+ rating for gambling imagery⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing is, this is likely going to affect their sales to some degree.
  As a parent, you may have age lock on your child’s account, or search games by rating, or just not know what this game is when asked to buy it but judging by rating.

  I don’t know how significant of an impact that is, but it’s unfair.
